How to Set Home, Waypoints and Favourite Locations Using SYNC 3

Ford SYNC 3 with AppLink uses one shot destination entry, which means that address details can be entered into one field, instead of multiple fields.
Swipe and pinch-to-zoom gestures can be used to change the map view.
In full screen map view, the controls at the bottom of the screen are hidden after 10 seconds to provide a larger map area.
The optional Navigation system provides a full 3D experience with a rotating, elevated map view, enhanced graphics and Points of Interest (POI) building images.
The Ford SYNC 3 with AppLink engine uses 'fuzzy logic' to correct spelling mistakes and other errors when inputting a destination.

Select Destination.
Use the key pad to enter your destination. Destinations can be entered in many different ways: by address, points of Interest (POI), junction, Town/City, postcode, latitude and longitude co-ordinates.
POI or matching previous destinations will be displayed.
The order of the matching route list can be sorted by Best match, or Distance or filtered, so that only POIs that appear in the Michelin guide are shown.
