Speed-restricted features
Ford proactively locks out access to typing via the touch screen while the vehicle is travelling more than 5km/h
(eg. typing a navigation destination). However, some of these features are still available via voice commands.
Mobile
phone • Pairing a Bluetooth ® 1 phone.
• Lists/entries are limited for phone contacts
and recent phone call entries.
Tips for using voice:
- The Voice feature allows you to operate
various functions of the SYNC ® 2 system by voice
commands, to minimise driver distraction.
- When the Voice button on the steering wheel
is pressed, a “SYNC” tone sounds. A second tone will
sound when the system is ready for a voice command,
and a
Listening Ear will be displayed in the
screen's lower menu bar.
- Say commands in a smooth, confi dent voice at a
normal pace, directing your voice at the SYNC ® 2
microphone located in the overhead console.
Avoid “
ahhs ” and “ umms ” when saying a command.
- Say all the words of a command in the correct
order (eg. “ Call John Doe. ” “ Find an address ”).
- Say “What can I say?” for a written list of
voice commands on the screen or say “Help”
if you want audible help for the current mode
(eg. Phone, Radio, Navigation, USB).
- Ensure the vehicle interior is quiet (windows
closed, passengers not talking) for optimum
SYNC
® 2 voice recognition.
- Once SYNC ® 2 has completed your voice
command action, the Voice feature is turned off .
For another voice command, the Voice button
must be pressed again.
