CAUTION
The Interior Command Centre is
NOT a touch screen. DO NOT
press the screen as permanent screen
damage may occur.
Vehicles are fitted with either an LCD
or colour screen depending on vehicle
specification and options fitted. The
screen displays audio, climate control
and auxiliary function information.
The display brightness is controlled
automatically by the sun-load sensor.
In daylight conditions the screen will
remain bright for best visibility even
with headlamps on. At night time,
with headlamps on, the screen will
automatically dim. The screen brightness
and contrast can also be adjusted
manually within the settings menu (see
Interior Command Centre (ICC) Settings
section under "Display").
To turn off the constant screen display,
press and hold the Audio System On/
Off button (1) for three seconds until the
screen display turns blank. If you adjust
any audio, climate or other functions that
have an associated screen display, the
screen will momentarily be reactivated
for up to seven seconds after the final
adjustment has been made before it
turns blank again.
To turn the constant screen display back
on, press and hold the Audio System On/
Off button (1) again for three seconds.
The constant screen display can also be
toggled on and off via the Settings Menu
(see Interior Command Centre [ICC]
Settings section under "Display").
Audio
IMPORTANT AUDIO
INFORMATION
Audio system operation
The audio system operates with the
ignition key in the ACCESSORY or ON
positions. Press the Audio System On/
Off button (1) to toggle the system on
and off.
Keyless play
The audio system can also be operated
for up to one hour without the ignition
key. Press the Audio System On/Off
button (1) to turn the audio system on.
In keyless play mode, only the audio
settings within the menu are available
for adjustment. Turn your ignition on to
access the Settings or Phone menu.
If "Audio Off with Driver Door Open"
has been selected (see Audio Menu,
Options), the audio will turn off upon
opening the driver's door.
Note: Reactivating keyless play may
lead to battery drain. To avoid this, it is
recommended that the engine is kept
running.
Security system
The audio unit is protected by an
electronic security system which
renders it inoperative if it is removed
from the vehicle it was originally fitted
to. As the security system links the
audio unit to the vehicle, if the battery
has been disconnected, normal audio
operation will resume when the battery
is reconnected. Other personalisation
settings may need to be reset as a
result. An "Audio Code Error" message
will be displayed. See your Authorised
Ford Dealer if this message appears.
