FORD 2013 Escape v.1 - Manual (Page 352)

Note: Do not connect the audio input jack
to a line level output. The AIJ only works
correctly with devices that have a
headphone output with a volume control.
Note: Do not set the portable music
player's volume level higher than is
necessary to match the volume of the CD
or FM radio as this causes distortion and
reduces sound quality.
Note: If the music sounds distorted at lower
listening levels, turn the portable music
player volume down. If the problems
persists, replace or recharge the batteries
in the portable music player.
Note: The portable music player must be
controlled in the same manner when it is
used with headphones as the AIJ does not
provide control (play, pause, etc.) over the
attached portable music player.
PHONE
Hand's-free calling is one of the main
features of SYNC. Once your phone is
paired, you can access many options using
the touchscreen or voice commands. While
the system supports a variety of features,
many are dependent on your mobile
phone's functionality.
At a minimum, most mobile phones with
Bluetooth wireless technology support the
following functions:
•
Answering an incoming call
• Ending a call
• Using privacy mode
• Dialing a number
• Redial
• Call waiting notification
• Caller ID
Other features such as text messaging
using Bluetooth and automatic phonebook
download are phone-dependent features.
To check your phone's compatibility, refer
to your phone's user manual and visit
www.SYNCMyRide.com or
www.syncmaroute.ca.
Pairing Your Phone for the First
Time
WARNING
Driving while distracted can result in
loss of vehicle control, accident and
injury. Ford strongly recommends
that drivers use extreme caution when
using any device that may take their focus
off the road. Your primary responsibility is
the safe operation of the vehicle. We
recommend against the use of any
handheld device while driving, encourage
the use of voice-operated systems when
possible and that you become aware of
applicable state and local laws that may
affect use of electronic devices while
driving.
The first thing you must do to use SYNC's
phone features is to pair your
Bluetooth-enabled mobile phone with
SYNC. This allows you to use your phone
in a hands-free manner.
Note: Make sure the vehicle ignition and
radio are turned on and that the
transmission is in position P.
1. Touch Add Phone in the upper left
corner of the touchscreen.
2. When prompted, select Add.
3. Select Add Device.
4. Make sure that Bluetooth is set to On
and that your mobile phone is in the
proper mode. Refer to your phone's
user guide if necessary.
