The Wind Stop will not interfere with power top opera-
tion. Therefore, it can remain installed when the top is up.
However, when not in use, the Wind Stop folds to allow
for convenient storage underneath the cargo protector in
the trunk.

LIf so equipped.
LLFor vehicles not equipped with the EVIC.
LLLThe PTCM will LOCKOUT the power convertible top system if the vehicle charging system is malfunc-
tioning, or the battery is run down, or the hydraulic pump is overheating. In addition, the system prohibits low-
ering the top when ambient temperature is at 0ÉF (-18ÉC) or lower and raising the top when ambient temperature
is below -40ÉF (-40ÉC).
²If you are trying to lower the top and ambient temperature is 0ÉF (-18ÉC) or lower, wait until the temperature
rises and the top is thawed and dry before operating the Power Top.
²If you are trying to raise the top and ambient temperature is below -40ÉF (-40ÉC), wait until the temperature
rises before operating the Power Top.
²If the vehicle charging system is malfunctioning, see your authorized dealer for service.
²If the battery is run down, have it recharged and tested at your authorized dealer.
²Hydraulic pump overheating can occur if you lower and raise the top consecutively (usually more than six or
seven times depending upon the ambient temperature). Wait at least 5 minutes before operating the Power Top
again.NOTE:If LOCKOUT occurs due to hydraulic pump overheating, the system will allow you to raise the top
without waiting 5 minutes. However, do so only if necessary.

Turning Confirmation Prompts On/Off
Turning confirmation prompts off will stop the system
from confirming your choices (e.g., the UConnecttsys-
tem will not repeat a phone number before you dial it).
²Press the PHONE button to begin.
²After the9Ready9prompt and the following beep, say
9Setup Confirmations.9The UConnecttsystem will
play the current confirmation prompt status and you
will be given the choice to change it.
Phone and Network Status Indicators
If available on the radio and/or on a premium display
such as the instrument panel cluster, and supported by
your cell phone, the UConnecttsystem will provide
notification to inform you of your phone and network
status when you are attempting to make a phone call
using UConnectt. The status is given for roaming, net-
work signal strength, phone battery strength, etc.
Dialing Using the Cellular Phone Keypad
You can dial a phone number with your cellular phone
keypad and still use the UConnecttsystem (while dial-
ing via the cell phone keypad, the user must exercise
caution and take precautionary safety measures). By
dialing a number with your paired Bluetoothtcellular
phone, the audio will be played through your vehicle's
audio system. The UConnecttsystem 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 UConnecttsystem to play it on the
vehicle audio system, so you will not hear it. Under this
situation, after successfully dialing a number the user
may feel that the call did not go through even though the
call is in progress. Once your call is answered, you will
hear the audio.
