The uconnectphone can be used with any Hands-Free
Profile certified Bluetooth cellular phone. See the
uconnect website for supported phones. If your cellular
phone supports a different profile (e.g., Headset Profile)
you may not be able to use any uconnect phone
features. Refer to your cellular service provider or the
phone manufacturer for details.
The uconnect phone is fully integrated with the vehi-
cle’s audio system. The volume of the uconnect phone
can be adjusted either from the radio volume control
knob or from the steering wheel radio control (right
switch), if so equipped.
The radio display will be used for visual prompts from
the uconnect phone such as CELLor caller ID on
certain radios.
OperationVoice commands can be used to operate the uconnect 
phone and to navigate through the uconnect phone
menu structure. Voice commands are required after most
uconnect phone prompts. You will be prompted for a
specific command and then guided through the available
options.•
Prior to giving a voice command, one must wait for
the beep, which follows the Readyprompt or another
prompt.
•
For certain operations, compound commands can be
used. For example, instead of saying Setupand then
Phone Pairing, the following compound command
can be said: Setup Phone Pairing.
•
For each feature explanation in this section, only the
combined form of the voice command is given. You
can also break the commands into parts and say each
part of the command when you are asked for it. For

You will be asked to say a four-digit Personal Identi-
fication Number (PIN), which you will later need to
enter into your cellular phone. You can enter any
four-digit PIN. You will not need to remember this PIN
after the initial pairing process.
•
For identification purposes, you will be prompted to
give the uconnect phone a name for your cellular
phone. Each cellular phone that is paired should be
given a unique phone name.
•
You will then be asked to give your cellular phone a
priority level between one and seven, with one being
the highest priority. You can pair up to seven cellular
phones to your uconnect phone. However, at any
given time, only one cellular phone can be in use,
connected to your uconnect phone. The priority
allows the uconnect phone to know which cellular phone to use if multiple cellular phones are in the
vehicle at the same time. For example, if priority three
and priority five phones are present in the vehicle, the
uconnect
phone will use the priority three cellular
phone when you make a call. You can select to use a
lower priority cellular phone at any time (refer to
Advanced Phone Connectivity in this section).

the dial ring to the uconnect 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
