 | Live in SYNC with a Ford SYNC system. Available on select 2010 Ford models, SYNC is a simple-to-use voice command system that lets you operate most MP3 players, Bluetooth-enabled cell phones, and USB drives via in-car connectivity, all with just the sound of your voice. It provides the driver with a wide variety of useful features.
# Hands-Free Calling * Whether you want to make a call with a simple voice command, look through your phonebook, view your call log, see who's calling you, push a button to answer a call, or place a call on hold, SYNC lets you do it all.
# Audible Text Messages * SYNC can read your incoming text messages out loud to you, even recognizing phrases like "LOL" and emoticons like :), as well as providing you with 15 generic answers that you can reply back with.
# Uninterrupted Connections * There's no reason to end the call you're currently having, because SYNC will instantaneously connect to your cell phone as soon as you climb inside your Ford, letting you keep on talking seamlessly.
# Multiple Phone Support * SYNC can be programmed to recognize up to 12 different phones, making it great for families who share a Ford.
# Advanced Calling Features * SYNC lets you utilize your radio's display screen to show you a signal strength icon, a caller log, conference calling, contact list, Caller ID, and call waiting.
# Ringtone Support and Automatic Phonebook Download * SYNC recognizes your ringtones and plays them when your phone rings, even those ringtones you've programmed for certain callers, and also downloads your phonebook automatically for your convenience.
# Music Search * SYNC uses simple voice commands like "Play [Artist]," "Play Track: [Song Title]," or "Play Genre: Rock" in order to let you peruse through your music by song title, album, artist, genre, and even playlist.
# "Play Similar" Feature * Just say "Similar Music," and automatically SYNC will generate a virtual playlist based on the genre and style of the song you're currently enjoying.
# Superior Compatibility * SYNC is able to support a large selection of devices, USB drives, and file formats, including MP3, WAV, WMA, and AAC.
# Supports Podcasts, Audiobooks, and Bluetooth Streaming Audio * Whether you want to listen to your favorite podcast, the newest bestseller, or wirelessly stream songs from your Bluetooth-enabled mobile phone or media device, SYNC can play it for you.
# USB Device Charging * Since SYNC automatically charges your media player when your Ford is turned on and it's plugged into the USB jack, having your player die due to a low battery is a thing of the past.
# Turn-by-Turn Navigation * Utilizing your Ford's sound system's speakers, SYNC gives you voice directions so you can get exactly where you need to go, even storing the locations of frequently used destinations such as "Home."
# Real-Time Traffic * All you have to say is "Traffic" and SYNC uses your sound system to give you useful traffic condition updates or directions to your location, and can even send your cell phone traffic alerts via text message.
# News, Sports and Weather * Just go to the SYNC Owner Center website, pick what information you want to get, and SYNC will send you up-to-date news reports, weather forecasts, or sports scores for all your favorite teams.
# Business Search * SYNC automatically connects you to over 14 million U.S. business listings via its Business Search feature, then gives you directions based on where your Ford is presently, even going so far as to send your cell phone a text message and a map.
# Vehicle Health Report * Simply saying "Vehicle Health" allows you to see a personalized online report for your Ford, which includes scheduled maintenance information, vehicle diagnostics, recall information, and even allows you to schedule a service appointment online at the SYNC Owner Center website.
# 911 Assist * Activated by airbags deploying or by your fuel pump shutting off, SYNC automatically connects you to a 911 operator, and in the event that you can't speak, it will send the operator an urgent emergency message so help will reach you as soon as possible.
