on the remaining transmitters will work. If the vehicle is
shifted out of PARK, all the transmitter buttons are
disabled for all keys.
NOTE:The Sentry Key Immobilizer System is not
compatible with remote starting systems. Use of these
systems may result in vehicle starting problems and a
loss of security protection. Additional Sentry Keys or
Mobil Speed-passŸ devices held against or immediately
adjacent to the ignition key when starting the engine may
cause vehicle starting problems. If a problem occurs,
remove the Sentry Key from the key-ring and attempt to
start the vehicle again. Pagers, cell phones, walkman, etc.
will have no effect on this system.
The9Security Light9will illuminate for about 3 seconds
when the ignition switch is first turned to the ON
position. If the vehicle electronics do not receive a valid
signal from the ignition key, the9Security Light9will flashcontinuously to signal that the vehicle has been immobi-
lized. If the9Security Light9remains on during vehicle
operation, it indicates a fault in the system electronics. If
this option was ordered, all of the keys provided with
your new vehicle have been programmed to the vehicle
electronics.
Replacement Keys
NOTE:Only keys that have been programmed to the
vehicle electronics can be used to start the vehicle. Once
a Sentry Key has been programmed to a vehicle, it cannot
be programmed to any other vehicle.
At the time of purchase, the original owner is provided
with a four digit PIN number. This number is required
for dealer replacement of keys. Duplication of keys may
be performed at an authorized dealer or by using the
Customer Key Programming procedure. This procedure
10 THINGS TO KNOW BEFORE STARTING YOUR VEHICLE
airbags work, you need the seat belts to keep you in the
right position for the airbags to protect you properly.
Here are some simple steps you can follow to minimize
the risk of harm from a deploying airbag.
1. Children 12 years and under should always ride
buckled up in a rear seat in an appropriate child restraint.
Infants in rear-facing child restraints shouldNEVERride
in the front seat of a vehicle with a passenger front airbag.
An airbag deployment can cause severe injury or death to
infants in that position.
If a child from 1 to 12 years old must ride in the front
passenger seat because the vehicle is crowded, move the
seat as far back as possible, and use the proper child
restraint. See9Child Restraint9in this section.
You should read the instructions provided with your
child restraint to make sure that you are using it properly.2. All occupants should use their lap and shoulder belts
properly.
3. The driver and front passenger seats should be moved
back as far as practical to allow the airbag room to inflate.
4. If your vehicle has window bags, do not lean against
the door or window, airbags will inflate forcefully into
the space between you and the door.
5. If the airbag system in this vehicle needs to be
modified to accommodate a disabled person, contact the
Customer Center. Phone numbers are provided in the9If
You Need Customer Assistance9section later in this
owner's manual.

UConnectŸ is a voice-activated, hands-free, in-vehicle
communications system. UConnectŸ; allows you to dial
your cellular phone using simple voice commands (e.g.,
ªCallº or ªDialº). Your cellular phone's audio is trans-
mitted through your vehicle's stereo system; the system
will automatically mute your radio before receiving or
sending a call.UConnectŸ allows you to transfer calls between the
system and your cellular phone as you enter or exit your
vehicle, and enables you to mute the system's micro-
phone for private conversations.
The UConnectŸ; phone book enables you to store up to
32 names and four numbers per name. This system is
driven through your BluetoothŸ Hands-Free Profile
cellular phone. UConnectŸ features BluetoothŸ technol-
ogy - the global standard that enables different electronic
devices to connect to each other without wires or a
docking station, so UConnectŸ works no matter where
you stow your cellular phone (be it your purse, pocket, or
briefcase). UConnectŸ allows up to seven cellular
phones to be linked to the system, and it is available in
English, French, or Spanish formats (as equipped).
The rearview mirror contains the microphone for the
system and the control buttons that will enable you to

access the system. The diagram below shows the mirror
with the appropriate buttons. Individual button behavior
is discussed in the ªOperationº Section.The UConnectŸ system can be used with any Hands
Free Profile certified BluetoothŸ cellular phone. If your
cellular phone has a different profile (i.e. headset profile),
you will not be able to use any UConnectŸ features.
The UConnectŸ system is fully integrated into your
vehicle, including your vehicle's stereo system. All voice
prompts as well as the other party's voice in a conversa-
tion will be played over your vehicle's stereo system. The
volume of the UConnectŸ system can be controlled
through your normal stereo controls.

Operation
Voice commands can be used in the operation of the
UConnectŸ system and to navigate through the UCon-
nectŸ menu structure. Voice commands should be given
after each UConnectŸ system prompt. You will be
prompted for a specific command and then guided
through the available options. There are two ways to give
commands to the UConnectŸ system:
²You can say9Dial9at the9Ready9prompt. When
prompted for the phone number you wish to dial, say
the phone number (9123 456 78909).
Pairing a Cellular Phone to the UConnectŸ System

ence your cellular phone owner's manual.

²After the9Ready9prompt, say9Setup9.
²When prompted, say ª Phone Pairingº.
²You will be asked to say a four-digit pin number into
the UConnectŸ system which you will later need to
enter into your cellular phone during the cellular
phone pairing process. You can enter any four-digit
pin number. You will not need to remember this pin
number after the initial registration process.
²The UConnectŸ system will then prompt you to begin
the cellular phone pairing process on your cellular
phone. Please see your cellular phone user's manual
for instructions on how to complete this step.
²For identification purposes, you will be prompted to
give the UConnectŸ system a name for your cellular
phone. Each cellular phone that is paired should be
given a unique phone name.

²You will then be asked to give your cellular phone a
priority level between 1 and 7, 1 having the highest
priority. You can connect up to seven cellular phones
to your UConnectŸ system and the priority allows the
UConnectŸ system to know which cellular phone to
use if multiple cellular phones are in the vehicle at the
same time. For example, if a priority 3 and priority 5
cellular phone are both in the vehicle, the UConnectŸ
system will use the priority 3 cellular phone when you
make a call. You can select to use a lower priority
cellular phone at any time.
