Emergency Assistance
WARNINGS
For this feature to work, your mobile
phone must be Bluetooth-enabled
and compatible with the system.
Always place your phone in a secure
location in your vehicle so it does not
become a projectile or get damaged
in a crash. Failure to do so may cause
serious injury to someone or damage the
phone which could prevent Emergency
Assistance from working properly.
Unless the Emergency Assistance
setting is on prior to a collision, the
system does not attempt to place
an emergency call. This could delay the
response time, increasing the risk of serious
injury or death.
Do not wait for Emergency
Assistance to make an emergency
call if you can do it yourself. Dial
emergency services immediately to avoid
a delayed response time. If you do not hear
Emergency Assistance within five seconds
of the crash, the system or cell phone may
be damaged or non-functional.
Note:
Before setting the feature on, please
read the important notice about the Ford
SYNC Emergency Assistance feature and
the Emergency Assistance privacy notice
later in this section for important
information.
Note:
When you turn Emergency Assistance
on or off, the setting will apply for all paired
cell phones. If you have turned Emergency
Assistance off and a previously paired phone
connects when you switch the ignition on,
either a voice message plays, a display
message or icon is shown or both.
Note:
Every cell phone operates differently.
While SYNC Emergency Assistance works
with most cell phones. Some cell phones
may experience difficulties using this
feature.
Note:
For important information regarding
airbag deployment. See
Owner Manual
.
Note:
Ford is not the provider of the
emergency services contacted by SYNC
when an emergency call is initiated. Ford
does not accept any liability in relation to
the provision, quality or timeliness of those
services.
In the event of a crash which deploys an
airbag or activates the fuel pump shut-off,
the system may be able to contact
emergency services (including call center)
through a paired and connected cell phone.
