GETTING STARTED WITH YOUR SYNC SYSTEM
SYNC is a hands-free, voice recognition system used for entertainment, information and communication. SYNC. Say the Word.

Before You Get Started

1. Set up your owner account at www.owner.ford.com (U.S.) or www.SyncMyRide.ca (Canada). Register by following the on-screen instructions. After registering, you can get information about new software updates.
2. SYNC uses a wireless connection called Bluetooth^® to communicate with your cell phone. Switch Bluetooth mode on in your phone's menu options. This lets your phone find SYNC. If you need more details on setting up your phone with SYNC, call the toll-free number, visit the website or your phone manufacturer's website. See the inside front cover of this guide for details.

Pairing Your Cell Phone with SYNC

In order to use many of the features of SYNC, such as making a phone call or receiving a text, you must first connect or pair your phone with SYNC.

PowerShift Automatic Transmission*

The 6-speed, dual-clutch automatic transmission is designed to offer drivers both enhanced fuel efficiency and fun-to-drive performance.

The dual-clutch technology uses electronically shifted clutches to operate two separate transmissions, all in a small, lightweight package.

Since the clutch and gear operation is derived from a manual transmission, the PowerShift automatic transmission will drive, sound, and feel similar to manual transmission, minus the required user-inputs. For example, the transmission may exhibit mechanical noises, firm gear shifts and/or light clutch vibrations when accelerating slowly as the clutches automatically engage. These are all considered to be normal and expected driving characteristics.

See the Transmission chapter of your Owner's Manual for details.

SelectShift Automatic Transmission*

This transmission gives you the ability to manually change gears if you'd like.

To Use

• Move the gearshift lever from drive (D) to sport (S).
• Activate SelectShift by using the thumb toggle located on the side of your gearshift lever to make manual shifts.
• Press the (+) button to upshift. Press the (–) button to downshift.

Hill Start Assist*

The system makes it easier to pull away when you park your vehicle on a slope without using the parking brake. When active, this feature allows your vehicle to remain stationary on a slope for up to two to three seconds after you release the brake pedal. This short period gives you time to move your foot to the accelerator and pull away. This feature activates automatically if the sensors detect that the vehicle is on a slope.

Function

Rear View Camera System*

This system provides a video image of the area behind the vehicle. Switch on your audio system and ignition, and the display appears in the touchscreen when the vehicle is in reverse (R). The system uses green, yellow and red guides to alert you of your proximity to objects. The camera is on the liftgate (near the handle) or on the trunk near the license plate bracket.

Heated Exterior Mirrors*

The outside mirrors have heating elements that defrost or de-mist the mirror glass. The feature turns on automatically when you switch on the rear defrost.

Parking Aid*

The system warns you of obstacles within a certain range of the rear bumper area. When receiving a detection warning, the audio volume automatically lowers to a predetermined level. After the warning goes away, the audio volume returns to the previous level.

Rear Sensing System*

The system sounds an audible warning tone if there is an obstacle near your vehicle's rear bumpers. As the vehicle moves closer to the obstacle, the rate of the warning tone increases in frequency. The rear sensors are active only when the vehicle is in reverse (R), and detect objects up to 72 inches (183 centimeters) away, with decreased coverage at the outer corners of the bumper. See the Parking Aids chapter in your Owner's Manual for complete information on your vehicle's sensing systems.

Note: Visibility aids do not replace the need to watch where the vehicle is moving. Refer to your Owner's Manual for safety information, more details and limitations.

To Use

• Park your vehicle, apply the emergency brake and switch the ignition off.
• Open the fuel-filler door and slowly insert the nozzle. Hold the handle higher during insertion for easier access.
• Wait 5-10 seconds between the time the refueling nozzle shuts off until you remove the nozzle from the vehicle to allow residual fuel in the nozzle to drain into the tank.
• When using a portable fuel container, slowly insert the fuel funnel (located in the spare tire compartment) and pour the fuel into the funnel.

Note: Do not use aftermarket funnels as they do not work with the Easy Fuel system and may cause damage. Properly clean the funnel after each use.

Fuel Tank Capacity and Fuel Info

Your vehicle has a 12.4 gallon (47L) fuel tank capacity. We recommend regular unleaded gasoline with a pump (R+M)/2 octane rating of 87. Do not use E85 fuels because your vehicle was not designed to run on fuels with more than 15% ethanol.

Location of Spare Tire and Tools

Your spare tire and tools are beneath the carpeted floor panel in the rear of your vehicle.

• The spare tire is designed for emergency use only and should be replaced as soon as possible.
• For complete details on changing your tire, see the Wheels and Tires chapter in your Owner's Manual.

Tire Pressure Monitoring System

Your vehicle displays a low tire pressure warning light in your instrument cluster when one or more of your tires are significantly underinflated. If this happens stop and check your tires as soon as possible. Inflate them to the proper pressure. Refer to the Wheels and Tires chapter of your Owner's Manual for more information.
