HANDS–FREE COMMUNICATION (UConnect™)—
IF EQUIPPED
UConnect™is a voice-activated, hands-free, in- vehicle
communications system. UConnect™allows you to dial
a phone number with your cellular phone using simple
voice commands (e.g.,Call”“Mike””WorkorDial”
“248-555-1212). Your cellular phone’s audio is trans-
mitted through your vehicle’s audio system; the system
will automatically mute your radio when using the
