2008 CHRYSLER PT CRUISER phone

²In a convertible vehicle, the system performance may
be compromised with roof top down.
²Performance, such as audio clarity, echo, and loudness
to a large degree rely on the phone and network, and
not the UConnectŸ system.
²Echo at far end can sometime be reduced by lowering
the in-vehicle audio volume.
Bluetooth Communication Link
Occasionally, Cellular phones have been found to lose
connection to the UConnectŸ system. When this hap-
pens, the connection can generally be re-established by
switching the phone off/on. Your cell phone is recom-
mended to remain in Bluetooth9on9mode.
Power-Up
After switching the ignition key from OFF to either ON
or ACC position, or after a reset, you must wait at least
five (5) seconds prior to using the system.

Electrical Outlet Use With Engine Off
CAUTION!
²Many accessories that can be plugged in draw
power from the vehicle's battery, even when not in
use (i.e., cellular phones, etc.). Eventually, if
plugged in long enough, the vehicle's battery will
discharge sufficiently to degrade battery life
and/or prevent engine starting.
²Accessories that draw higher power (i.e., coolers,
vacuum cleaners, lights, etc.), will degrade the
battery even more quickly. Only use these inter-
mittently and with greater caution.
²After the use of high power draw accessories, or
long periods of the vehicle not being started (with
accessories still plugged in), the vehicle must be
driven a sufficient length of time to allow the
generator to recharge the vehicle's battery.
CONSOLE FEATURES
The console has two front cup holders, a removable coin
holder, 12 volt power outlet and a front storage tray.
There are three additional cup holders; one is molded in
the center of the console to hold large cups and the others
are in the rear of the console to serve passengers in the
rear seat. The floor console power outlet will also operate
a conventional cigar lighter unit (if equipped with an
optional Smoker's Package).
