How to install the updates in your vehicle

At certain points during the update installation, the screen may go dark for several minutes at times as the system reboots. You will also hear audible “Installation Complete” messages. They refer to specific phases of the installation, not the overall upgrade process. When last phase is complete, SYNC™ will reboot and then show a normal working screen display instead of installation screen display.

Please note:

Take note of the saved Navigation points which are stored in your Satellite navigation system. You will need to re-enter them after the installation. Your devices need to be set-up again once the upgrade is complete.
Please ensure that your car is in a well-ventilated area. Your vehicle will need to be turned on, with the engine running, for about 20-30 minutes to complete the upgrade
