Overview

The audio system consists of an 8 speaker system with an AM/FM single CD ACM (Audio Control Module), 8 inch touchscreen FDIM (Front Display Interface Module), audio amplifier, redundant steering wheel controls, SYNC(R) with media hub, optional navigation and optional satellite radio.

The SYNC(R) system is a hands-free communication and entertainment system that provides the ability to:

- Send and receive phone calls via a Bluetooth-enabled phone

- Send and receive text messages via a Bluetooth-enabled phone

- Connect media devices (such as an iPod or USB (Universal Serial Bus) device) in order to play audio files

- Play media files via a Bluetooth-enabled audio device

- Access a WiFi signal receiver for in-car internet access (requires customer-supplied USB (Universal Serial Bus) modem)

- Produce vehicle health reports

- Initiate an emergency call (eCall) when the air bags deploy

In addition to entertainment system control, the operator can also control the climate control system, the ambient lighting system (if equipped), and several other vehicle systems using either the touchscreen or voice controls.

While SYNC(R) supports many features, not all features are available with every phone. For example, text messaging is supported by SYNC(R) , but not available with most phones.
