NOTE:The UConnect system requires a cellular phone
equipped with the Bluetooth Hands-Free Profile,Ve r -
sion 0.96 or higher. See the UConnect website for

UConnect allows you to transfer calls between the
system and your cellular phone as you enter or exit your
vehicle and enables you to mute the system’s microphone
for private conversation. The UConnect
phonebook enables you to store up to 32
names, with four numbers per name. Each language has
a separate 32-name phonebook accessible only in that
language. This system is driven through your Bluetooth 
“Hands-Free profile” cellular phone. UConnect features
Bluetooth technology - the global standard that enables
different electronic devices to connect to each other
without wires or a docking station, so UConnect works
no matter where you stow your cellular phone (be it your
purse, pocket, or briefcase), as long as your phone is
turned on and has been paired to the vehicle’s
UConnect system. The UConnect system allows up to
seven cellular phones to be linked to the system. Only
one linked (or paired) cellular phone can be used with the
system at a time. The system is available in English,
Spanish, or French languages.

Emergency and the UConnect system will instruct

of successfully making a phone call as to that for the cell
phone directly. Your phone must be turned on and paired to the

emergency situations, when the cell phone has network
coverage and stays paired to the UConnect system.Towing Assistance
