HD Radio Reception and Station Troubleshooting

Potential Reception Issues

If you are listening to a multicast station and you are on
the fringe of the reception area, the station may mute due
to weak signal strength.

Reception area

If you are listening to HD1, the system switches back to
the analog broadcast until the digital broadcast is available
again. However, if you are listening to any of the possible
HD2-HD7 multicast channels, the station mutes and stays
muted unless it is able to connect to the digital signal
again.

When the system first receives a station, aside from HD2-
HD7 multicast stations, it first plays the station in the
analog version. Once the receiver verifies the station is an
HD Radio station, it shifts to the digital version. Depending
on the station quality, you may hear a slight sound change
when the station changes from analog to digital. Blending
is the shift from analog to digital sound or digital back to
analog sound.

Station blending

In order to provide the best possible
experience, use the contact form to report
any station issues found while listening to
a station broadcasting with HD Radio
technology. Independent entities own and
operate each station. These stations are
responsible for the accuracy of all audio
streams and data fields.

Satellite Radio Reception Factors

Potential Satellite Radio Reception Issues

For optimal reception performance, keep the antenna
clear of snow and ice build-up and keep luggage and other
material as far away from the antenna as possible.
Factory-installed and aftermarket vehicle structures
including, but not limited to, roof racks and soft top roofs
in a partially open position could reduce reception
performance.

Antenna obstructions

Hills, mountains, tall buildings, bridges, tunnels, freeway
overpasses, parking garages, dense tree foliage and
thunderstorms can interfere with your reception.

Terrain

When you pass a ground-based broadcast-repeating
tower, a stronger signal may overtake a weaker one and
the audio system could mute.

Station overload

Your display may show ACQUIRING . . . to indicate the
interference and the audio system could mute.

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
hand-held 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 an authorized dealer.

Privacy Information

When a cellular phone is connected to
SYNC, the system creates a profile within
your vehicle that is linked to that cellular
phone. This profile is created in order to
offer you more cellular features and to
operate more efficiently. Among other
things, this profile may contain data about
your cellular phone book, text messages

383

SYNC™

 (If Equipped)

(read and unread), and call history,
including history of calls when your cellular
phone was not connected to the system.
In addition, if you connect a media device,
the system creates and retains an index of
supported media content. The system also
records a short development log of
approximately 10 minutes of all recent
system activity. The log profile and other
system data may be used to improve the
system and help diagnose any problems
that may occur.

The cellular profile, media device index,
and development log will remain in the
vehicle unless you delete them and are
generally accessible only in the vehicle
when you connect the cellular phone or
media player. If you no longer plan to use
the system or the vehicle, we recommend
you perform a Master Reset to erase all
stored information.

No one can access system data without
special equipment and access to the
vehicle's SYNC module. Ford Motor
Company and Ford of Canada will not
access the system data for any purpose
other than as described absent consent, a

court order, or where required by law
enforcement, other government
authorities, or other third parties acting
with lawful authority. Other parties may
seek to access the information
independently of Ford Motor Company and
Ford of Canada. For further privacy
information, see the section on 911 Assist.
See 

SYNC™ Applications and Services

Helpful Hints

Make sure the interior of your vehicle is
as quiet as possible.  Wind noise from
open windows and road vibrations may
prevent the system from correctly
recognizing spoken commands.

Before giving a voice command, wait
for the system announcement to finish,
followed by a single tone. Any
command spoken before this does not
register with the system.

Speak naturally, without long pauses
between words.

You can interrupt the system at any
time while it is speaking by pressing the
voice button. You can cancel a voice
session by pressing and holding the
voice button.

System Interaction and Feedback

The system provides feedback through
audible tones, prompts, questions and
spoken confirmations depending on the
situation and the chosen level of
interaction.  You can customize the voice
recognition system to provide more or less
instruction and feedback.

The default setting is to a higher level of
interaction in order to help you learn to use
the system. You can change these settings
at any time.

phones with Bluetooth wireless technology
support the following functions:

Answering an incoming call.

Ending a call.

Dialing a number.

Redialing.

Call waiting notification.

Caller identification.

Other features, such as text messaging
using 

Bluetooth®

 and automatic

phonebook download, are
phone-dependent features.

SYNC™ APPLICATIONS AND
SERVICES

911 Assist: Can alert 911 in the event of
an emergency.

SYNC AppLink: Allows you to connect
to and use certain applications (if your
phone is compatible).

These features may require activation.
Available AppLink enabled apps vary by
market.

911 Assist

WARNING: 

Unless the 911 Assist

setting is set on before a crash, the
system will not dial for help which could
delay response time, potentially
increasing the risk of serious injury or
death after a crash.

WARNING: 

Do not wait for 911

Assist to make an emergency call if you
can do it yourself. Dial emergency
services immediately to avoid delayed
response time which could increase the
risk of serious injury or death after a
crash. If you do not hear 911 Assist within
five seconds of the crash, the system or
phone may be damaged or
non-functional.

WARNING: 

Always place your

phone in a secure location in your vehicle
so it does not become a projectile or get
damaged in a crash. Failure to do so may
cause serious injury to someone or
damage the phone which could prevent
911 Assist from working properly.

Note:

The SYNC 911 Assist feature must be

set on before the incident.

Note:

The SYNC 911 Assist feature only

operates in the U.S., Canada or in a territory
in which 911 is the emergency number.

Note:

Before setting this feature on, make

sure that you read the 911 Assist Privacy
Notice later in this section for important
information.

Note:

If any user switches 911 Assist to on

or off, that setting applies for all paired
phones. If 911 Assist is switched off, either
a voice message plays or a display message
or an icon comes on when your vehicle is
started and after a previously paired phone
connects.

Note:

Every phone operates differently.

While SYNC 911 Assist works with most
cellular phones, some may have trouble
using this feature.

387

SYNC™

 (If Equipped)

If a crash deploys an airbag, excluding knee
airbags and rear inflatable seatbelts, or
activates the fuel pump shut-off, your
vehicle may be able to contact emergency
services by dialing 911 through a paired and
connected 

Bluetooth®

-enabled phone.

See 

Supplementary Restraints System

(page 48).  Important information about
airbag deployment is in this chapter.

See 

Roadside Emergencies

 (page 234).

Important information about the fuel pump
shut-off is in this chapter.

Setting 911 Assist On or Off

Press the Settings button then select:

Action and Description

Menu

Item

Select the desired option, on
or off.

911 Assist

To make sure that 911 Assist works
properly:

SYNC must be powered and working
properly at the time of the incident and
throughout feature activation and use.

The 911 Assist feature must be set on
before the incident.

You must pair and connect a

Bluetooth®

 enabled and compatible

cell phone to SYNC.

A connected 

Bluetooth®

 enabled

phone must have the ability to make
and maintain an outgoing call at the
time of the incident.

A connected 

Bluetooth®

 enabled

phone must have adequate network
coverage, battery power and signal
strength.

The vehicle must have battery power
and be located in the U.S., Canada or
in a territory in which 911 is the
emergency number.

In the Event of a Crash

Not all crashes deploy an airbag or activate
the fuel pump shut-off (the triggers for 911
Assist). If a connected cell phone sustains
damage or loses its connection to SYNC
during a crash, SYNC searches for and tries
to connect to a previously paired cell
phone; SYNC then attempts to call the
emergency services.

Before making the call:

SYNC provides a short window of time
(about 10 seconds) to cancel the call.
If you fail to cancel the call, SYNC
attempts to dial 911.

SYNC says the following, or a similar
message: "SYNC will attempt to call
911, to cancel the call, press Cancel on
your screen or press and hold the
phone button on your steering wheel".

If you do not cancel the call, and SYNC
makes a successful call, a pre-recorded
message plays for the 911 operator, and
then the occupant(s) in your vehicle are
able to talk with the operator. Be prepared
to provide your name, phone number and
location immediately, because not all 911
systems are capable of receiving this
information electronically.

911 Assist May Not Work If

Your cellular phone or 911 Assist
hardware sustains damage in a crash.

The vehicle's battery or the SYNC
system has no power.

The phone(s) thrown from your vehicle
are the ones paired and connected to
the system.

deployment of an airbag or activation of
the fuel pump shut-off. Certain versions or
updates to 911 Assist may also be capable
of electronically or verbally disclosing to
911 operators your vehicle location or other
details about your vehicle or crash to assist
911 operators to provide the most
appropriate emergency services. If you do
not want to disclose this information, do
not switch the feature on.
