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 being the highest
priority. You can pair up to seven cellular phones to
your UConnectŸ system. However, at any given time,
only one cellular phone can be in use, connected to
your UConnectŸ System. 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 priority 3 and priority 5
phones are present 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 (refer to9Advanced Phone
Connectivity9).

number that you enter must be of valid length and
combination. Based on the country in which the ve-
hicle was purchased, the UConnectŸ limits the user
from dialing invalid combination of numbers. For
example, in USA, 234-567-890 is nine digits long,
which is not a valid USA phone number - the closest
valid phone number has ten digits.

ber and then dial. The number will appear in the
