USER GUIDE

Keep your eyes on the road and hands on the wheel using
MyLincoln Touch driver-connect technology. It puts you in control
of what you want when you want it – through voice, touch or a mix
of both. There are also settings and controls you can personalize
to suit your interests and the level of engagement you desire.
Plus, the Navigation System provides turn-by-turn directions with
3-D maps, points of interest and more.

TIPS FOR USING VOICE
Upon pressing on the
steering wheel, make sure
to wait for the SYNC®“tone”
before speaking a command.
Speak commands in a
smooth, condent and
normal pace, directing
your voice at the SYNC®
microphone located
in the headliner. Avoid
“ahhs” or “umms” when
speaking a command.
Say, “What can I say?” if you
need an audible list of voice
commands for the current
mode (e.g., Phone, Radio,
Navigation, USB).
Ensure the vehicle interior
is quiet (windows closed,
passengers aren’t talking).
Be sure to use these tips when operating
the system:
free of moisture
continuing

vehicle is equipped with one. If dirt or

Be patient. In-vehicle touch-screen technology is new and evolving. Inspired in part by
the devices you’re already familiar with using – like smartphones – the touch screen
in your vehicle is built to a durable, automotive standard and designed to perform in
extreme temperatures.
