3. Remove and replace the battery. When re-
placing the battery, match the + sign on the
battery to the + sign on the inside of the battery

4. To assemble the RKE transmitter case, snap
the two halves together.
General InformationThe RKE transmitter and receivers operate on a
carrier frequency of 433.92 MHz as required by
EEC regulations. These devices must be certi-
fied to conform to specific regulations in each
individual country. Two sets of regulations are
involved: ETS (European Telecommunication
Standard) 300–220, which most countries use,
and German BZT federal regulation 225Z125,
which is based on ETC 300–220 but has addi-
tional unique requirements. Other defined re-
quirements are noted in ANNEX VI of COMMIS-
SION DIRECTIVE 95/56/EC. Operation is
subject to the following two conditions:
•This device may not cause harmful interfer-
ence. •
This device must accept any interference
received, including interference that may
cause undesired operation.
If your RKE transmitter fails to operate from a
normal distance, check for these two condi-
tions:
1. Weak battery in RKE transmitter. The ex-
pected life of the battery is a minimum of three
years.
2. Closeness to a radio transmitter such as a
radio station tower, airport transmitter, and
some mobile or CB radios.
DOOR LOCKSThe power door locks can be manually locked
from inside the vehicle by using the door lock
knob. To lock each door, push the door lock
knob on each door trim panel downward. To
unlock the front doors, pull the inside door
handle to the first detent. To unlock the rear
doors, pull the door lock knob on the door trim
panel upward. If the lock knob is down when
the door is closed, the door will lock. Therefore,
make sure the key is not inside the vehicle
before closing the door.
WARNING!
• For personal security and safety in the
event of an accident, lock the vehicle doors
when you drive, as well as when you park
and leave the vehicle.
• When leaving the vehicle, always remove
the key fob from the ignition and lock your
vehicle.
• Never leave children alone in a vehicle, or

Pair (Link) Uconnect™ Phone To A Mobile
Phone
To begin using your Uconnect™ Phone, you
must pair your compatible Bluetoothenabled
mobile phone (refer to “Compatible Phones”
section to learn about the phone type).
To complete the pairing process, you will need
to reference your mobile phone owner’s
manual. The Uconnect™ website may also
provide detailed instructions for pairing.
The following are general phone to Uconnect™
Phone pairing instructions:
• Press the
button to begin.
• After the “Ready” prompt and the following
beep, say “Setup Phone Pairing”.
• When prompted, after the beep, say “Pair a
Phone” and follow the audible prompts.
• You will be asked to say a four-digit Personal
Identification Number (PIN), which you will
later need to enter into your mobile phone.
You can enter any four-digit PIN. You will not

pairing process. •
For identification purposes, you will be
prompted to give the Uconnect™ Phone a
name for your mobile phone. Each mobile

phone a priority level between 1 and 7, with
1 being the highest priority. You can pair up
to seven mobile phones to your Uconnect™
Phone. However, at any given time, only one
mobile phone can be in use, connected to
your Uconnect™ System. The priority allows
the Uconnect™ Phone to know which mobile
phone to use if multiple mobile phones are in
the vehicle at the same time. For example, if
priority 3 and priority 5 phones are present in
the vehicle, the Uconnect™ Phone will use
the priority 3 mobile phone when you make a
call. You can select to use a lower priority
mobile phone at any time (refer to “Ad-
vanced Phone Connectivity”).

• After the “Ready” prompt and the following
beep, say “Call.”

Video Entertainment System (VES)™This manual is intended to aid with the opera-
tion of the rear seat Video Entertainment Sys-
tem (VES)™.
The Video Entertainment System (VES)™ ex-
pands the vehicle’s audio and video capabili-
ties so that rear passengers can enjoy movies,
music and external audio/video devices such
as video games or MP3 players. The VES™
integrates seamlessly with the vehicle’s radio
so the audio may be heard through the cabin
speakers and/or headphones. The system may
be controlled by the radio for front seat occu-
pants or controlled by the remote control for
rear seat occupants.The VES™ is a dual channel system. The video
screen displays information in a split screen
format. The left side of the screen is referred to
as Channel 1 and the right side of the screen is
referred to as Channel 2. All modes except
video modes (DVD video, Aux video) are dis-
played in a split screen format. When a video
mode is displayed it is displayed on the full
screen. The remote control is designed to con-
trol either channel by the use of the selector
switch located on the right side of the remote
control. The headphones are designed to listen
to either channel by use of the selector switch
located on the right ear cup.
Using the included dual channel wireless head-
phones, the VES™ allows rear passengers to
listen to two different audio sources simultane-ously. The wireless remote control allows rear
passengers to change stations, tracks, discs
and audio/video modes.
