Acceleration SensorsAcceleration Sensors trigger airbag deployment based on
dramatic acceleration change of the vehicle.
Pressure Sensors
Pressure Sensors trigger airbag deployment based on
door cavity pressure changes.
Rollover Sensors
Rollover Sensors trigger airbag deployment in the event
of vehicle rollover and aid the ORC in deploying Side
Airbag Inflatable Curtains (SABIC) for rollover events.
Supplemental Side Airbag Inflatable Curtain
(SABIC) — If Equipped
The ORC deploys the SABIC during a collision with
other vehicles and during collisions where the impact is
confined to a particular area of the vehicle, such as,
collisions with poles, trees or similar objects. In these
events, the ORC will deploy the SABIC only on the
impact side of the vehicle.
NOTE:
The ORC will also detect and protect for rollover
when equipped with SABIC airbags. In a rollover the
SABIC airbags will deploy on both sides of the vehicle.
Enhanced Accident Response System
In the event of an impact causing airbag deployment, the
vehicle communication network intact, and the power
intact, the Enhanced Accident Response System performs
the following functions:
Cuts off fuel to the engine.
Flashes hazard lights as long as the battery has power
or until the ignition key is turned off
Turns on the interior lights, which remain on as long as
the battery has power or until the ignition key is
removed.
Unlocks the doors automatically.

Call While Current Call is in Progress.9 After the second
call has established, press and hold the PHONE button
until you hear a double beep, indicating that the two calls
have been joined into one conference call.
Call Termination
To end a call in progress, momentarily press the PHONE
button. Only the active call(s) will be terminated and if
there is a call on hold, it will become the new active call.

phone-dependent. To bring the call back from hold, press
and hold the PHONE button until you hear a single beep.
Redial

Press the PHONE button to begin.
After the 9Ready9prompt and the following beep, say

The uconnectt phone will call the last number that
was dialed from your cellular phone.
NOTE: This may not be the last number dialed from the
uconnectt phone.
Call Continuation
Call continuation is the progression of a phone call on the
uconnectt phone after the vehicle ignition key has been
switched to OFF. Call continuation functionality avail-
able on the vehicle can be any one of three types:
After the ignition key is switched to OFF, a call can
continue on the uconnectt phone either until the call
ends, or until the vehicle battery condition dictates
cessation of the call on the uconnectt phone and
transfer of the call to the cellular phone.

NOTE:
The towing assistance number dialed is based on the
country where the vehicle is purchased (1-800-528-
2069 for the U.S., 1-877-213-4525 for Canada, 55-14-

Paging
To learn how to page, refer to9Working with Automated
Systems.9 Paging works properly except for pagers of
certain companies, which time out a little too soon to

To learn how to access your voice mail, refer to 9Working
with Automated Systems.9
Working with Automated Systems
This method is used in instances where one generally has
to press numbers on the cellular phone keypad while
navigating through an automated telephone system.
You can use your uconnectt phone to access a voice mail
system or an automated service, such as a paging service
or automated customer service line. Some services re-

Phone and Network Status IndicatorsIf available on the radio and/or on a premium display
such as the instrument panel cluster, and supported by
your cellular phone, the uconnectt
phone will provide
notification to inform you of your phone and network
status when you are attempting to make a phone call
using uconnectt phone. The status is given for roaming,
network 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 uconnectt phone (while dialing
via the cellular phone keypad, the user must exercise
caution and take precautionary safety measures). By
dialing a number with your paired Bluetootht cellular
phone, the audio will be played through your vehicle’s
audio system. The uconnectt phone will work the same
as if you dial the number using voice recognition. NOTE:
Certain brands of cellular phones do not send
the dial ring to the uconnectt phone 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.
Mute/Un-Mute (Mute OFF)
When you mute the uconnectt phone, you will still be
able to hear the conversation coming from the other
party, but the other party will not be able to hear you. In
order to mute the uconnectt phone:
Press the VOICE RECOGNITION button.
Following the beep, say9Mute.9
In order to un-mute the uconnectt phone:
Press the VOICE RECOGNITION button.
Following the beep, say9Mute off.9

Performance, such as audio clarity, echo, and loudness
to a large degree rely on the phone and network, and
not the uconnectt
phone.
Echo at the far end can sometimes be reduced by
lowering the in-vehicle audio volume.
In a convertible vehicle, system performance may be
compromised with the convertible top down.
BluetoothtCommunication Link
Cellular phones have been found to lose connection to
the uconnectt phone. When this happens, the connection
can generally be reestablished by switching the phone
off/on. Your cellular phone is recommended to remain in
Bluetootht ON mode.
Power-Up
After switching the ignition key from OFF to either the
ON or ACC position, or after a language change, you
must wait at least five seconds prior to using the system.
