FORD 2013 Explorer v.1 - Manual (Page 476)

Safety Information
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.
When using SYNC, do not:
• Operate playing devices if the power cords or cables are broken, split
or damaged. Carefully place cords and cables where they cannot be
stepped on or interfere with the operation of pedals, seats,
compartments or safe driving abilities.
• Leave playing devices in the vehicle during extreme conditions as it
could cause them damage. Refer to your device’s user guide for further
information.
• Attempt to service or repair the system. See your authorized dealer.
Speed-Restricted Features
Some features of this system may be too difficult to use while the vehicle
is in motion so they’re restricted from being modified unless the vehicle
is not moving. Some examples of these are listed below:
• Screens that are too crowded with information, such as Point of
Interest (POI) reviews and ratings, SIRIUS
௡ Travel Link™ sports
scores, movie times, ski conditions, etc.
• Any action that requires using a keyboard, such as entering a
navigation destination or editing information
• All lists are limited so the user can view fewer entries (e.g. phone
contacts, recent phone call entries)
