WITH MYLINCOLN TOUCH
™
SYNC is a hands-free, voice recognition system used for
entertainment, information and communication. SYNC…Say the word.
Use the four-corner, four-color touch screen to explore and
interact with your vehicle. The touch screen works the same way as
traditional controls, knobs and buttons do. Press the various corners
on your touch screen to personalize the many features and settings
of your vehicle all in one place. The system provides easy interaction
with your cellular phone, multimedia entertainment, climate controls
and navigation system.
A REVOLUTIONARY WAY TO CONNECT WITH YOUR CAR.
GENERAL TIPS
• Press the home icon at any time to return to your
home screen.
• For additional support, refer to your Owner’s Manual,
visit the website or call the toll-free number. See the

SYNC. For more details on setting up your phone with

PAIRING YOUR PHONE WITH SYNC
In order to use many of the features of
SYNC, you must first pair and connect
your phone with SYNC. To pair your
phone for the first time:
1. Make sure that your vehicle is in (P)
park and both your ignition and radio
are turned on.
2. Touch Add Phone in the upper left
corner of the touch screen.
3. Make sure that Bluetooth is set to on and
your cellular phone is in the proper mode.
4. When Find SYNC appears on the
display, follow the directions on the
screen. When SYNC finds your phone,
it will display a six-digit PIN. Add the
PIN into your phone.
5. The display will indicate when the
pairing is successful.
Note: The system may prompt you to:
• Set your phone as the primary/
favorite (the primary phone will
receive messages and voice mails).
• Download your phone book (this
is required to use the full set of
voice commands).
• Turn on 911 Assist®.
TIPS
