16 THINGS TO KNOW BEFORE STARTING YOUR VEHICLE

5. If a child from 1 to 12 years old must ride in the front
passenger seat because the vehicle is crowded, move the
seat as far back as possible, and use the proper child
restraint (refer to information on Child Restraint in this
section).
6. You should read the instructions provided with your
child restraint to make sure that you are using it properly.
7. All occupants should use their seat belts properly.
8. The driver and front passenger seats should be moved
back as far as practical to allow the airbags time to inflate.
9. If your vehicle has side curtain airbags do not lean
against the door, airbags will inflate forcefully into the
space between you and the door.
10. If the airbag system in this vehicle needs to be
modified to accommodate a disabled person, contact the
Customer Center. Phone numbers are provided in the9If
You Need Customer Assistance9section in this manual.WARNING!
²Relying on the airbags alone could lead to more
severe injuries in a collision. The airbags work
with your seat belt to restrain you properly. In
some collisions, the airbags won't deploy at all.
Always wear your seat belts even though you have
airbags.
²Being too close to the steering wheel or instrument
panel during airbag deployment could cause seri-
ous injury. Airbags need room to inflate. Sit back,
comfortably extending your arms to reach the
steering wheel or instrument panel.
²If the vehicle has side curtain airbags, they also
need room to inflate. Do not lean against the door
or window. Sit upright in the center of the seat.

mand9Phonebook New Entry,9or you can break the
combined form command into two voice commands:

Pair (Link) UConnectŸ System to a Cellular Phone
To begin using your UConnectŸ system, you must pair
your compatible BluetoothŸ enabled cellular phone.
To complete the pairing process, you will need to reference
your cellular phone owner's manual. The UConnectŸ
website may also provide detailed instructions for pairing.
The following are general phone to UConnectŸ System
pairing instructions:
²Press the ªPhoneº button to begin.
²After the9Ready9prompt and the following beep, say
9Setup Phone Pairing.9
²When prompted, after the beep, say9Pair a Phone9and
follow the audible prompts.
²You will be asked to say a four-digit pin number,
which you will later need to enter into your cellular.
You can enter any four-digit pin number. You will not
need to remember this pin number after the initial
pairing process.
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).
