Safety Information

WARNING: Driving while distracted can result in loss of vehicle
control, crash and injury. We strongly recommend that you use

extreme caution when using any device that may take your focus off
the road. Your primary responsibility is the safe operation of your
vehicle. We recommend against the use of any handheld device while
driving and encourage the use of voice-operated systems when possible.
Make sure you are aware of all applicable local laws that may affect the
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. Place cords and cables out of the way, so
they do not interfere with the operation of pedals, seats,
compartments or safe driving abilities.

• Do not leave playing devices in your vehicle during extreme conditions

as it could cause them damage. See your device’s manual for further
information.

• Do not attempt to service or repair the system. See your authorized

dealer.

For your safety, some SYNC functions are speed-dependent. Their use is
limited to when your vehicle is traveling at speeds under 3 mph
(5 km/h).

Make sure that you review your device’s manual before using it with
SYNC.

Speed-restricted Features

Some features of this system may be too difficult to use while your
vehicle is moving so they are restricted from use unless your vehicle is
stationary.
• Screens that are too crowded with information, such as Point of

Interest reviews and ratings, Sirius Travel Link sports scores, movie
times and ski conditions.

• Any action that requires you to use a keyboard is restricted, such as

entering a navigation destination or editing information.

• All lists are limited so the user can view fewer entries (such as phone

contacts or recent phone call entries).
