My Lincoln Touch is one of those must-have Lincoln parts currently available for the Lincoln MKX. Using a blend of voice and touch commands, this revolutionary technology allows you to get directions, make hands-free phone calls, listen to music from your portable music player, and even adjust your car's temperature – all with a few simple voice or touch commands. If you're familiar with the Ford Sync or MyFord Touch, you'll be pleased to know that this same technology is now available in Lincoln cars.

In order to get the most out of the My Lincoln service, you will need to have a Bluetooth-enabled cell phone along with a digital music player. The system uses your cell phone to access some of the services such as turn-by-turn directions and emergency assistance. If you'd like to listen to your personal music collection stored on an MP3 player, simply plug it in and enjoy! Optionally, you can also listen, and control, music stored on a USB stick.

Lincoln cars equipped with MyLincoln Touch have access to the following features:
Hands-free calling
Automatic detection of your phone and switchover to the ...
... system when you turn on your car
Text message read-outs
15 pre-programmed text message responses

After buying a new Lincoln, Oakville owners will need to go to the SyncMyRide.ca website to register their owner account. After signing up for an account, you can then personalise the Lincoln service to better meet your needs. Next, make sure to pair your Bluetooth cell phone with MyLincoln Touch and set your "home" settings. Spend time familiarising yourself with the voice commands and the user interface so that you can use the technology safely while driving.

While the MyLincoln Touch is currently offered in select Lincoln cars, many of the voice features are available in other models such as the Lincoln MKZ or Lincoln Navigator equipped with Sync. Sync is available in many used cars as well.

Whether you buy a new Lincoln with the My Lincoln Touch service or a used Lincoln, Oakville drivers that want a convenient, hands-free calling option should seriously consider upgrading to either MyLincoln Touch or Sync. These systems are among the best Lincoln parts available.
