Note:
When you switch this feature on or
off, that setting applies for all paired cell
phones. If you have turned this feature off
and a previously paired phone connects
when you switch on the ignition, either a
voice message plays, a display message or
icon is shown or both.
Note:
Every cell phone operates differently.
While this feature works with most cell
phones, some cell phones may experience
difficulties using this feature.
Note:
Make sure you are familiar with the
information about airbag deployment. See
Supplementary Restraints System
If a crash deploys an airbag or triggers the
fuel pump shut off, the system may
contact emergency services by dialing 112
(the wireless emergency number that
works in most European countries) through
a paired and connected cell phone. For
more information about the system and
emergency assistance, visit the regional
Ford website.

Display Options
If you switch on this feature, a confirmation
message appears in the display.
If you switch off this feature, a dialog
appears in the display, which allows you
to set a voice reminder.
Off with voice reminder provides a display
and voice reminder when your cell phone
connects and your vehicle starts.
Off without voice reminder provides a
display reminder only without a voice
reminder when your cell phone connects.
To make sure that emergency assistance
works correctly:
•
The system must have power and be
working correctly at the time of the
crash and during feature activation and
use.
•
You must switch on the feature before
a crash.
•
You must have a cell phone connected
to the system.
•
In certain countries, it may be
necessary to have a valid and
registered SIM card with credit in order
to place and maintain an emergency
call.
•
A connected cell phone must have the
ability to make and maintain an
outgoing call at the time of the crash.
•
A connected cell phone must have
adequate network coverage, battery
power and signal strength.
•
Your vehicle must have battery power.
Note:
This feature only works in a European
country or region where SYNC emergency
assistance can call the local emergency
services. Visit the regional Ford website for
details.
In the Event of a Crash
Note:
Not every crash deploys an airbag or
triggers the fuel pump shut off (which may
turn on emergency assistance). However, if
emergency assistance is triggered the
system tries to contact the emergency
services. If a connected cell phone sustains
damage or loses connection to the system,
it searches for and tries to connect to any
available previously paired cell phone. The
system attempts to dial 112.
