How to Use This Technology Information Book
This Technology Information Book is designed to provide
you quick access to the frequently used capabilities of
SYNC® with MyFord Touch® and MyLincoln TouchTM. For
the 2013 model year, it’s faster, simpler and better. Plus,
existing owners can get a Performance Upgrade at no
charge. Simpler graphics, faster touch-screen response
and easier-to-use controls are among the many enhancements to this voice-activated, in-car connectivity system.
Evolving the software with meaningful enhanced features
will always be part of the plan with MyFord Touch. It’s
no different than our experiences with Smartphones and
laptop computers – except now, it’s your customer’s car
that gets better.
You’ll find step-by-step “how-tos” to practice and become
adept at, so you can show customers this simple, intuitive
and easy-to-use driver-connect technology. Depending
on your level of knowledge and experience with driverconnect technology, you may use this guide in different
ways over time:
• Get familiar with everything you can do to personalize,
customize and make the experience your own
• Notice all the available voice commands you can use
to access virtually anything you need
• Appreciate the various ways you can use the system
and determine which is most convenient for you —

the steering wheel

Using the Touch Screen
Be sure to use these tips when operating the system:
• Ensure that your hands are clean, dry and free of moisture
• Press and release on the features you want
• Notice how the system responds before continuing
• Avoid any continuously rapid pressing of the same button
• Clean the display with a clean, soft cloth such as one used for
cleaning glasses. Your vehicle is equipped with one. If dirt or
fingerprints are still visible, apply a small amount of alcohol to
the cloth. Do not pour/spray alcohol onto the display. Do not
use detergent or any type of solvent to clean the display
• To keep the system operating at peak performance, you may
also need to reboot the system or perform periodic system
maintenance with software updates

stations — and a whole lot more — simply by saying what you want. The basic voice, touch and graphics interfaces are common

stack functionality and feature availability.

How to Reverse Pair
Reverse pairing is when you have SYNC® look for your phone rather
than have the phone search for SYNC. Set the phone’s Bluetooth®
to Discoverable Mode, and then follow these steps:
• Press the Phone button to access the phone menu
• Press the Settings tab
• Press the Add tab; the SYNC system will prompt you
to search for SYNC on your device; ignore the prompt
• Make sure to set your phone’s Bluetooth to Discoverable Mode
• Press the Find Other Devices tab on the screen
• SYNC will search and then display the name of your phone on
the screen; press on the tab that displays the name of your phone
• Enter a pass key (like “1234”), using the keypad displayed on the
screen; press Enter; your screen will say “Pairing”
• Your phone will ask for a PIN number; enter the same one you
have entered on your screen, which is “1234”; press the OK button
on your phone
• After pressing OK or Enter on your phone, SYNC will attempt
to make the connection
If this method does not work, it may be necessary to download
a firmware update for the phone. Please check with your phone
carrier for any firmware updates for your phone.
TIP
Some Android phones with older operating systems will accept a 4-digit PIN instead of a 6-digit PIN.
To pair the phone using a 4-digit PIN, follow these instructions:
• Follow the usual steps to pair the phone
• When SYNC offers a 6-digit PIN on screen, press Edit
• A new screen appears. Either delete the last two numbers or delete all numbers and type in 0000 or 1234.
Press Enter to save the new number
• The new 4-digit PIN will appear on screen to complete the pairing process

and settings.
Making a Call
Once your phone is paired, you can make hands-free calls
using SYNC®:

Manage Phonebook > Download Photos from Phonebook.
Receiving a Call
An incoming call interacts with SYNC in much the same way
it interacts with your Bluetooth®-enabled mobile phone:
• During an incoming call, an audible tone will sound.
If available, call information will appear in the display
• Accept the call by pressing Accept on the touch screen
on your steering wheel controls
or by pressing
• Reject the call by pressing Reject on the touch screen
or by pressing and holding
on your steering wheel
controls
• Ignore the call by doing nothing. SYNC will log the call
as a missed call
TIP
Some vehicles, like Focus, have separate buttons on the steering
wheel to answer and hang up phone calls. They appear as green
and red buttons.

HD RadioTM Technology With iTunes® Tagging
HD Radio technology provides an enhanced audio experience with no subscription
fees and no special setup to begin enjoying — plus better audio quality, improved
reception performance and more choices:
• FM sounds like CD quality, while AM sounds like today’s FM
• Crystal-clear, static-free reception
• Unique multicasting of channels (HD2–HD4), along the same radio frequency
as HD1 featuring innovative content
• Data displayed on-screen, such as song and artist
This feature is only available with optional Sony®-branded audio for Ford or THX® II
Certified Audio System for Lincoln.
iTunes Tagging
To access, press the lower-left corner of the touch screen.
Then, press AM or FM > HD Radio > On.
When this feature is enabled and you are tuned to a station
broadcasting HD Radio technology, iTunes Tagging provides
you the ability to capture a song’s information, making it
easier for later purchase:
• With a simple push of the Tag button on the radio display,
the song information is stored in the radio’s memory
• Up to 100 tags can be stored on SYNC® until the iPod® is
connected to receive the download of metadata. When the
iPod is then synced to iTunes, a playlist of “tagged” songs
will appear. You then can preview and, if desired, purchase
and download tagged songs from the iTunes Store
Note: Although uncommon, it is possible for radio stations to experience broadcast problems in sending their analog and digital signals. If you experience interrupted
service on an HD1 channel, the signal can automatically switch to its analog equivalent. When in HD2–HD4, since there is no equivalent analog channel behind it, if
you experience a radio broadcast problem from the station, you may lose the signal entirely. This situation may be a radio broadcaster issue or loss of reception in fringe
areas, not something wrong with the radio itself.

SiriusXM Satellite Radio
Enjoy over 130 channels, including 100% commercial-free music from virtually
every genre, plus live sports play-by-play, news, talk and entertainment —
all with crystal-clear, coast-to-coast coverage. A six-month subscription is
included with vehicle purchase. After the initial six months, you can extend
your subscription by calling SiriusXM Customer Care at 1-888-539-7474.
• Press and hold one of the memory preset areas (on the right
side of the screen). You will hear a brief mute and the sound
will return when the station is saved
• Press Direct Tune and enter the desired satellite channel
number via the on-screen keypad
• Press the SIRIUS button repeatedly to change Sirius presets
(SIRIUS 1, 2 or 3)
• Press ALERT to save the current song or artist as a favorite
(up to 20 can be saved) and the system will alert you when
it plays again
• Select Browse to view a list of all available stations. Scroll and
select the desired station. You can also lock or skip unwanted
channels or view the song/artist on other stations
• Press Replay to access SiriusXM Instant Replay, which allows
controls to pause, rewind or replay up to 44 minutes of
radio content
[Consult your Owner’s Manual for more working instructions.]
In SiriusXM Satellite Radio mode, voice commands also provide
“direct tuning” capability, which allows the customer to readily
tune to desired “home team” game broadcasts rather than
knowing the channel up front. So, for example, saying “Tune
to <Team Name> game” or “Tune to <Team City> game”
finds and directs to the channel.

on it is connected to SYNC through the USB port. This may take only a few seconds, but if your player holds thousands of songs,
indexing may take longer to complete.
