Introduction You may already
be getting a lot of questions about SYNC, the
collaborative effort between Ford Motor Company
and Microsoft. Before we get into the specifics of
what you’ll need to show your customers, let’s look
at a few basics to give you a foundation for the
exciting details ahead. The information in this
section of the handbook is for vehicles with SYNC
but without navigation systems. For information on
SYNC on vehicles with navigation systems, please
see the SYNC WITH NAVIGATION section.
Important Points to
Understand and Communicate
It’s a good idea to share some important points
regarding SYNC with your customers. First, SYNC
is secure. No one else can access phonebooks or
hack into the system. Also, when SYNC plays music
through the vehicle’s audio system, it does not transfer
the actual music files. Instead, it streams the music
directly from the device, which is made possible by a
procedure called indexing. So there’s no file
copying involved.
As you work with the demonstrations in the Web-
based course, remember that there are a number of
different radio configurations for SYNC controls. While
we’re using one of the most common examples in the
online course, keep in mind that although the position
of buttons may vary from vehicle to vehicle, the
procedure will usually be similar. We’ll be using the
radio buttons for the most part, as well as the voice
button on the steering wheel. For more information
about using the buttons on the steering wheel, see the
owner guide for the vehicle.
