Receiving Turn-by-Turn Directions
1. When connected to SYNC Services, say "Directions" or "Business
Search". To find the closest business or type of business to your
current location, just say "Business Search" and then "Search Near
Me". If you need further assistance in finding a location, you can say
"Operator" at any time within a Directions or Business search to
speak with a live operator. The system may prompt you to speak
with an operator when it has difficulty matching your voice request.
The live operator can assist you by searching for businesses by name
or by category, residential addresses by street address or by name or
specific street intersections. Operator Assist is a feature of your
SYNC Services subscription. For more information on Operator
Assist, visit www.SYNCMyRide.com/support.
2. Follow the voice prompts to select your Destination. After the route
download is finished, the phone call automatically ends.
If your vehicle is not equipped with Navigation:
• Turn-by-turn directions appear in the information display, in the
status bar of your touchscreen system and on the SYNC Services
screen. You also receive driving instructions from audible prompts.
• When on an active route, you can select Route Summary or Route
Status using the touchscreen controls or voice commands to view
the Route Summary Turn List or the Route Status ETA. You can
also turn voice guidance on or off, cancel the route or update the
route.
