one generally has to press numbers on the cellular phone
keypad while navigating through an automated tele-
phony system.
You can use your UConnect™system to access a voice-
mail system or an automated service, such as, paging
service or automated customer service. Some services
require immediate response selection, in some instances,
that may be too quick for use of UConnect™system.

that normally requires you to enter in a touch-tone
sequence on your cellular phone keypad, you can push
the’Voice Recognition’button and say the sequence you
wish to enter followed by the wordSend.For example,
if required to enter your pin number followed with a
pound3746#,youcanpressthe’Voice Recognition’
button and say3746#Send.Saying a number, or
sequence of numbers, followed bySendis also to be

keypad and still use the UConnect™system (while
dialing via the cell phone keypad, the user must exercise
caution and take precautionary safety measures). By
dialing a number with your paired Bluetooth™cellular
phone, the audio will be played through your vehicle’s
audio system. The UConnect™system will work the
same as if you dial the number using voice recognition.
NOTE:Certain brands of mobile phones do not send
the dial ring to the UConnect™system to play it on the
vehicle audio system, so you will not hear it. Under this
situation, after successfully dialing a number, the user
