Safety Information WARNING Driving while distracted can result in loss of vehicle control, crash and injury. We strongly recommend that you use extreme caution when using any device that may take your focus off the road. Your primary responsibility is the safe operation of your vehicle. We recommend against the use of any hand-held device while driving and encourage the use of voice-operated systems when possible. Make sure you are aware of all applicable local laws that may affect the use of electronic devices while driving. • Do not attempt to service or repair the system. Have an authorized dealer check your vehicle. • Do not operate playing devices if the power cords or cables are broken, split or damaged. Place cords and cables out of the way, so they do not interfere with the operation of pedals, seats, compartments or safe driving abilities. • Do not leave playing devices in your vehicle during extreme conditions as it could cause them damage. See your device's user guide for further information. • For your safety, some SYNC functions are speed-dependent. Their use is limited to when your vehicle is traveling at speeds under 8 km/h (5 mph). Make sure that you review your device's manual before using it with SYNC. Speed-restricted Features Some features of this system may be too difficult to use while your vehicle is moving so they are restricted from use unless your vehicle is stationary. See the following chart for more specific examples. Restricted features Editing settings while the rear view camera or active park assist are active. System Functionality Playing video. Videos, Photos and Graphics Composing text messages. Text Messages Editing preset text messages. Demo navigation route.

Privacy Information When a cell phone connects to SYNC, the system creates a profile that links to that cell phone. The system creates the profile to offer you more mobile features and to operate more efficiently. Among other things, this profile may contain data about your phonebook, text messages (read and unread) and call history. This includes the history of calls when your cell phone was not connected to the system. If you connect a media player, the system creates and retains an index of supported media content. The system also records a short development log of approximately 10 minutes of all recent system activity. Use the log profile and other system data to improve the system and help diagnose any problems that may occur. The cell phone profile, media player index and development log remain in the system unless deleted. They are generally accessible in your vehicle only when you connect your cell phone or media player. If you no longer plan to use the system or your vehicle, we recommend you complete a master reset to erase all stored information. See Information Displays (page 67). Special equipment is required to access system data. Access to your vehicle's SYNC module is also required. We will not access the system data for any purpose other than as described without consent. Examples where we can access system data are for a court order, where required by law enforcement, other government authorities or other third parties acting with lawful authority. Other parties may seek to access the information independently of us. Further privacy information is available. Using Voice Recognition This system helps you control many features using voice commands. This allows you to keep your hands on the wheel and focus on what is in front of you. The system provides feedback through audible tones, prompts, questions and spoken confirmations depending on the situation and the chosen level of interaction (voice settings). The system also asks short questions (confirmation prompts) when it is not sure of your request or when there are multiple possible responses to your request. When using voice commands, words and icons may appear in the lower left status bar indicating the status of the voice command session. How to Use Voice Commands The following are some of the voice commands that you can say at any time during a voice command session. Press the voice button and when prompted say: Voice command Main menu Available commands Previous page Back Help 209 Mustang (CZG) Vehicles Built From: 13-07-2015, GR3J 19A321 AKA enGBR, Edition date: 06/2015, First Printing SYNC™ 2E142599
Helpful Hints • Make sure the interior of your vehicle is as quiet as possible. Wind noise from open windows and road vibrations may prevent the system from correctly recognizing spoken voice commands. • After pressing the voice command icon, wait until after the tone sounds and a message appears before saying a voice command. Any voice command spoken prior to this does not register with the system. • Speak naturally, without long pauses between words. • At any time, you can interrupt the system while it is speaking by pressing the voice command icon. Accessing a List of Available Voice Commands To access a list of available voice commands you can do either of the following. Using the touchscreen, press: Menu Item Settings Help Voice command list Using the steering wheel control, press the voice button and when prompted say one of the following: Voice Commands List of commands Radio list of commands Phone list of commands Voice instructions list of commands Voice Command Settings These allow you to customize the level of system interaction, help and feedback. The system defaults to standard interaction that uses candidate lists and confirmation prompts as these provide the highest level of guidance and feedback. Action and Description Menu Item In this mode the system provides detailed interaction and guidance. Novice Interaction mode This mode has less audible interac-tion and more tone prompts. Advanced The system uses these short questions to confirm your voice command. If turned off, the system simply makes a best guess as to what you requested. The system may still occasionally ask you to confirm a voice command. Confirmation prompts Candidate lists are lists of possible results from your voice commands. The system creates these lists when it has the same confidence level of several options based on your voice command.
