Discover the freedom of voice control. The 2009 Mariner can be equipped with available SYNC®, an integrated communications and entertainment system** that pairs with most Bluetooth®-enabled devices and digital music players to give you hands-free control. SYNC allows you to place and receive phone calls, listen to messages, choose music on your MP3 player and more — all with simple voice commands. SYNC is standard on Mariner I4 Premier, Mariner V6 Premier and Mariner Hybrid, and optional on Mariner I4 and Mariner V6 models.

**Driving while distracted can result in loss of vehicle control. Only use mobile phones and other devices, even with voice commands, when it is safe to do so. The Bluetooth word mark is a trademark of the Bluetooth SIG, Inc.

Mercury Mariner has an interior rich in features that will make all your trips enjoyable ones. From stylish door panels and satin-pewter and chrome trim to the shifter knob featuring a chrome insert, the 2009 Mariner interior is quite inviting. The standard leather-wrapped steering wheel and two-tone leather-trimmed seats with contrasting Alcantara® inserts on Mariner Premier I4 and Mariner Premier V6 models add a touch of sophistication.

The new voice-activated, DVD-based Navigation System with SIRIUS® Travel Link™ provides you with so much more than directions. Get a bird’s-eye view of locations you are searching for, aided by a hue on the screen that aligns with the time of day and includes major landmarks for added guidance. And because this system works with the integrated SIRIUS Travel Link, the nearest filling stations will appear on screen with their prices displayed when your gas tank nears empty. If a traffic backup gets in your way, the system will automatically reroute you.** There’s also the voice-activated convenience of SYNC®† and a new 10-gigabyte jukebox that lets you store up to 2,300 songs.

Of course if it’s directions you want, simply input your destination using the 6.5-inch touch screen. You’ll receive turn-by-turn voice guidance in English, French or Spanish. You can save your destinations, get the shortest route, and if you miss a turn, the system can even reroute you. Optional on Mariner Premier I4, Mariner Premier V6 and Mariner Hybrid models.

With all of the audio features in Mariner, you’re going to love what you hear. Mariner provides you with a choice of several rich-sounding audio systems.

For added convenience, standard secondary controls on the steering wheel permit audio changes while you keep your hands on the wheel.
