navigation system

  • Navigation Systems used in Ford vehicles can be operated via hand control buttons, touch-screen controls or voice commands (certain models). The system tracks vehicle location using a GPS device and compares that to maps stored on an internal hard drive (most 2009 models) or on a DVD.
  • Voice activation (if equipped) recognizes certain voice commands to operate the system hands-free

  • Destination selection search methods include:
  • Street address
  • Point of Interest (POI)
  • Freeway entrance/exit search
  • Previous destination
  • Turn-by-turn voice prompts include street name pronunciations
  • Supports North American English, Canadian French and North American Spanish
  • Help menu for basic operation, driving restrictions and navigation DVD
  • Automatic rerouting recalculates a new route if a turn is missed
  • Emergency button provides nearest emergency facility to choose as a destination (hospital or police)
  • Valet lockout mode disables operation of the Navigation System
