When you access SYNC Services, a phone call is placed to an automated system. Once connected, follow the prompts. You don’t need to press the Voice button every time before speaking (there are a few exceptions—see Exploring Information by voice).

Subscribing to SYNC Services
SYNC Services is complimentary for the first three years with the purchase of many SYNC-equipped vehicles. The complimentary subscription includes 60 free Operator Assist sessions.
Before using SYNC Services for the first time, you will need to log into your SYNC Owner Account and activate your subscription. You'll then be ready to use SYNC Services in your vehicle.
For the best results, ensure that you have successfully paired your Bluetooth-enabled phone with SYNC and disabled the phone's caller ID blocking feature. Then, access SYNC Services by pressing the Voice button and saying, "Services." SYNC will guide you through the voice commands necessary to use all of the SYNC Services features or you can familiarize yourself with the available voice commands beforehand.
Renewing your SYNC Services subscription
If you have a complimentary subscription, we will ask you to renew your enrollment annually. There is no charge to renew your SYNC Services subscription during the three-year complimentary enrollment period. Your renewal lets us know that you plan to continue using the service and provides us with an opportunity to keep our customer service records accurate.
You can renew your subscription in vehicle – the system will prompt you when it’s time to renew – or you can renew online by logging in to your SYNC Owner account.
Once your subscription has expired, you can log in to your SYNC Owner account to purchase an additional 1-year subscription for $60.00. Each year includes 20 free Operator Assist sessions.
