Call Continuation
Call continuation is the progression of
a phone call on the Uconnect™ Phone
after the vehicle ignition key has been
switched to OFF. Call continuation
functionality available on the vehicle
can be any one of three types:
After the ignition key is switched to OFF, a call can continue on the
Uconnect™ Phone either until the
call ends, or until a vehicle specific
time expires, or until the vehicle
battery condition dictates cessation
of the call on the Uconnect™ Phone
and transfer of the call to the mo-
bile phone. After the ignition key is switched to
OFF, a call can continue on the
Uconnect™ Phone for a certain du-
ration, after which the call is auto-
matically transferred from the
Uconnect™ Phone to the mobile
phone.
An active call is automatically transferred to the mobile phone af-
ter the ignition key is switched to
OFF.

Paging
To learn how to page refer to “Work-
ing with Automated Systems”. Paging
works properly except for pagers of
certain companies which time out a
little too soon to work properly with
the Uconnect™ Phone. Voice Mail Calling
To learn how to access your voice
mail, refer to “Working with Auto-
mated Systems”.
Working With Automated Systems
This method is used in instances
where one generally has to press num-
bers on the mobile phone keypad
while navigating through an auto-
mated telephone system.
You can use your Uconnect™ Phone
to access a voice mail system or an
automated service, such as a paging
service or automated customer ser-
vice. Some services require immediate
response selection. In some instances,
that may be too quick for use of the
Uconnect™ Phone.
When calling a number with your
Uconnect™ Phone that normally re-
quires you to enter in a touch-tone
sequence on your mobile phone key-
pad, you can press the
button
and say the sequence you wish to en-
ter followed by the word “Send”. For
example, if required to enter your PIN
followed with a hash, (3 7 4 6 #), you
can press the
button and say, “3
73
7 4 6 # Send”. Saying a number, or
sequence of numbers, followed by
“Send”, is also to be used for navigat-
ing through an automated customer
service center menu structure, and to
leave a number on a pager.
You can also send stored Uconnect™
Phonebook entries as tones for fast
and easy access to voice mail and
pager entries. To use this feature, dial
the number you wish to call and then
press the
button and say
“Send.” The system will prompt you
to enter the name or number and say
the name of the phonebook entry you
wish to send. The Uconnect™ Phone
will then send the corresponding
phone number associated with the
phonebook entry, as tones over the
phone.
NOTE:
You may not hear all of the tones due to mobile phone network
configurations; this is normal.
Some paging and voice mail sys- tems have system time out set-
tings that are too short and may
not allow the use of this feature. Barge In — Overriding Prompts
The “Voice Command” button can be
used when you wish to skip part of a
prompt and issue your voice com-
mand immediately. For example, if a
prompt is asking “Would you like to
pair a phone, clear a…,” you could
press the
button and say, “Pair
a Phone” to select that option without
having to listen to the rest of the voice
prompt.
Turning Confirmation Prompts
On/Off
Turning confirmation prompts off
will stop the system from confirming
your choices (e.g., the Uconnect™
Phone will not repeat a phone number
before you dial it).
Press thebutton to begin.
After the “Ready” prompt and the following beep, say:
“Setup Confirmations Prompts On”
“Setup Confirmations Prompts Off” Phone And Network Status
Indicators
If available on the radio and/or on a
premium display such as the
instru-
ment panel cluster, and supported by
your mobile phone, the Uconnect™
Phone will provide notification to in-
form you of your phone and network
status when you are attempting to
make a phone call using Uconnect™
Phone. The status is given for network
signal strength, phone battery
strength, etc.
Dialing Using The Mobile Phone
Keypad
You can dial a phone number with
your mobile phone keypad and still
use the Uconnect™ Phone (while di-
aling via the mobile phone keypad,
the user must exercise caution and
take precautionary safety measures).
By dialing a number with your paired
Bluetooth® mobile phone, the audio
will be played through your vehicle's
audio system. The Uconnect™ Phone
will work the same as if you dialed the
number using a Voice Command.
74
NOTE:
Certain brands of mobile phones
do not send 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 num-
ber 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 Uconnect™
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 Uconnect™ Phone:

1 cm gap between the overhead
console (for versions/markets,
where provided) and the mirror.
Always wait for the beep before speaking.
76
Speak normally, without pausing,just as you would speak to a person
sitting a few meters away from you.
Make sure that no one other than you is speaking during a voice pe-
riod.
Performance is maximized under: low-to-medium blower setting,
low-to-medium vehicle speed,
low road noise,
smooth road surface,
fully closed windows,
dry weather conditions.
Even though the system is designed for users speaking in European
English, Dutch, French, German,
Italian, or Spanish accents, the sys-
tem may not always work for some.
When navigating through an auto- mated system such as voice mail, or
when sending a page, at the end of
speaking the digit string, make sure
to say “Send”.
Storing names in the phonebook when the vehicle is not in motion is
recommended. It is not recommended to store simi-
lar sounding names in the
Uconnect™ Phonebook.

tion rate is optimized when the en-
tries are not similar.
Numbers must be spoken in single digits. “800” must be spoken
“eight-zero-zero” not “eight hun-
dred”.
You can say “O” (letter “O”) for “0” (zero).
Even though international dialing for most number combinations is
supported, some shortcut dialing
number combinations may not be
supported.
In a convertible vehicle, system per- formance may be compromised

Far End Audio Performance
Audio quality is maximized under: low-to-medium blower setting,
low-to-medium vehicle speed,
low road noise, smooth road surface,
fully closed windows,
dry weather conditions, and
operation from the driver seat.
Performance, such as audio clarity, echo, and loudness to a large degree
rely on the phone and network, and
not the Uconnect™ Phone.
Echo at the phone far end can sometimes be reduced by lowering
the in-vehicle audio volume.
In a convertible vehicle, system per- formance may be compromised
with the convertible top down.
