NOTE:
After any Active Hood deployment,
the vehicle should be taken to an
authorized dealer immediately.CAUTION!
To prevent possible damage, do not
slam the rear of the hood to reset it.
Press the rear of the hood down until
it is approximately 5 mm above the
fender. This should secure both hood
hinge reset mechanisms.WARNING!
Ignoring the Air Bag WarningLight in your instrument panel or
the “SERVICE ACTIVE HOOD”
message in the EVIC could mean
you won’t have the Active Hood to
enhance pedestrian protection. If
the light does not come on as a
bulb check when the ignition is
first turned on, stays on after you
start the vehicle, or if it comes on
as you drive, see your authorized
dealer.
(Continued)
WARNING!(Continued)
Modifications to any part of the
Active Hood system could cause it
to fail when you need it. Do not
modify the components or wiring.
Do not modify the front bumper,
vehicle body structure, or add an
aftermarket front bumper or
cover.
It is dangerous to try to repair any
part of the Active Hood system
yourself. Be sure to tell anyone
who works on your vehicle that it
has an Active Hood system.
Do not attempt to modify any part
of your Active Hood system. The
Active Hood may deploy acciden-
tally or may not function properly
if modifications are made. Take
your vehicle to an authorized
dealer for any hood service.
Drivers must be aware of pedestri-
ans. Always be sure to check for
pedestrians, animals, other ve-
hicles, and obstructions. You are
responsible for safety and must
continue to pay attention to your
surroundings. Failure to do so can
result in serious injury or death. ENHANCED SEAT BELT
USE REMINDER SYSTEM
(BeltAlert®)
BeltAlert® is a feature intended to
remind the driver and front passenger
(for versions/markets, where pro-
vided with front passenger
BeltAlert®) to fasten their seat belts.
The feature is active whenever the
ignition is on. If the driver or front
seat passenger is unbelted, the Seat
Belt Reminder Light will turn on and
remain on until both front seat belts
are fastened.
The BeltAlert® warning sequence be-
gins after the vehicle speed is over
8 km/h, by blinking the Seat Belt
Reminder Light and sounding an in-
termittent chime. Once the sequence
starts, it will continue for the entire
duration or until the respective seat-
belts are fastened. After the sequence
completes, the Seat Belt Reminder
Light remains illuminated until the
respective seat belts are fastened. The
driver should instruct all other occu-
pants to fasten their seat belts. If a
front seat belt is unbuckled while
traveling at speeds greater than
43
occupant and the door. The SAB fully
inflate in about 10 milliseconds. The
side air bag moves at a very high
speed and with such a high force that
it could injure you if you are not
seated properly, or if items are posi-
tioned in the area where the side air
bag inflates. This especially applies to
children.
Supplemental Side Air Bag
Inflatable Curtain (SABIC)
Inflator Units
During collisions where the impact is
confined to a particular area of the
side of the vehicle, the ORC may de-
ploy the SABIC air bags, depending
on the severity and type of collision. In
these events, the ORC will deploy the
SABIC only on the impact side of the
vehicle.
A quantity of non-toxic gas is gener-
ated to inflate the side curtain air bag.
The inflating side curtain air bag
pushes the outside edge of the head-
liner out of the way and covers the
window. The air bag inflates in about
30 milliseconds (about one-quarter of
the time that it takes to blink your
eyes) with enough force to injure youif you are not belted and seated prop-
erly, or if items are positioned in the
area where the side curtain air bag
inflates. This especially applies to
children. The side curtain air bag is
only about 9 cm thick when it is in-
flated.
Because air bag sensors estimate de-
celeration over time, vehicle speed
and damage are not good indicators of
whether or not an air bag should have
deployed.
NOTE:
In a rollover the pretensioners
and/or SAB and SABIC air bags
may deploy on both sides of the
vehicle.
Front And Side Impact Sensors
In front and side impacts, impact sen-
sors can aid the ORC in determining
appropriate response to impact
events.
Enhanced Accident Response
System
In the event of an impact causing air
bag deployment, if the communica-
tion network remains intact, and the
power remains intact, depending on
the nature of the event the ORC will
determine whether to have the En-
hanced Accident Response System
perform the following functions:
Cut off fuel to the engine.
Flash hazard lights as long as the
battery has power or until the igni-
tion key is turned off.
Turn on the interior lights, which remain on as long as the battery has
power or until the ignition key is
removed.
Unlock the doors automatically.
In order to reset the Enhanced Acci-
dent Response System functions after
an event, the ignition switch must be
changed from IGN ON to IGN OFF.
If A Deployment Occurs
The Advanced Front Air Bags are de-
signed to deflate immediately after
deployment.
NOTE:
Front and/or side air bags will not
deploy in all collisions. This does
not mean something is wrong with
the air bag system.

WARNING!
RCP is not a Back Up Aid system. It
is intended to be used to help a
driver detect an oncoming vehicle in
a parking lot situation. Drivers must
be careful when backing up, even
when using RCP. Always check care-
fully behind your vehicle, look be-
hind you, and be sure to check for
pedestrians, animals, other vehicles,
obstructions, and blind spots before
backing up. Failure to do so can
result in serious injury or death.
MODES OF OPERATION
Three selectable modes of operation
are available in the Electronic Vehicle
Information Center (EVIC). Refer to
"Electronic Vehicle Information Cen-
ter (EVIC)/Personal Settings
(Customer-Programmable Fea-
tures)” in “Understanding Your In-
strument Panel” for further informa-
tion. Blind Spot Alert
When operating in Blind Spot Alert
mode, the BSM system will provide a
visual alert in the appropriate side
view mirror based on a detected ob-
ject. However, when the system is op-
erating in RCP, the system will re-
spond with both visual and audible
alerts when a detected object is pres-
ent. Whenever an audible alert is re-
quested, the radio is muted.
Blind Spot Alert Lights/Chime
When operating in Blind Spot Alert
Lights/Chime mode, the BSM system
will provide a visual alert in the ap-
propriate side view mirror based on a
detected object. If the turn signal is
then activated, and it corresponds to
an alert present on that side of the
vehicle, an audible chime will also be
sounded. Whenever a turn signal and
detected object are present on the
same side at the same time, both the
visual and audio alerts will be issued.
In addition to the audible alert the
radio (if on) will also be muted.NOTE:
Whenever an audible alert is re-
quested by the BSM system, the
radio is also muted.
If the hazard flashers are on, the system will request the appro-
priate visual alert only.
When the system is in RCP, the
system shall respond with both vi-
sual and audible alerts when a de-
tected object is present. Whenever
an audible alert is requested, the
radio is also muted. Turn/hazard
signal status is ignored; the RCP
state always requests the chime.
Blind Spot Alert Off
When the BSM system is turned off
there will be no visual or audible
alerts from either the BSM or RCP
systems.
NOTE:
The BSM system will store the cur-
rent operating mode when the ve-
hicle is shut off. Each time the ve-
hicle is started the previously
stored mode will be recalled and
used.

After the “Ready” prompt and thefollowing beep, say “Call.”
The system will prompt you to say the name of the person you want to
call.
After the “Ready” prompt and the following beep, say the name of the
person you want to call. For ex-
ample, you can say “John Doe”,
where John Doe is a previously
stored name entry in the
Uconnect™ Phonebook or down-
loaded phonebook. To learn how to
store a name in the phonebook ,
refer to “Add Names to Your
Uconnect™ Phonebook”.
The Uconnect™ Phone will con- firm the name and then dial the
corresponding phone number,
which may appear in the display of
certain radios.
Add Names To Your Uconnect™
Phonebook
NOTE:
Adding names to the Uconnect™
Phonebook is recommended when
the vehicle is not in motion. Press the
button to begin.
After the “Ready” prompt and the following beep, say “Phonebook
New Entry”.
When prompted, say the name of the new entry. Use of long names
helps the Voice Command and it is
recommended. For example, say
“Robert Smith” or “Robert” in-
stead of “Bob”.
When prompted, enter the number designation (e.g., “Home”,
“Work”, “Mobile”, or “Other”).
This will allow you to store multiple
numbers for each phonebook entry,
if desired.
When prompted, recite the phone number for the phonebook entry
that you are adding.
After you are finished adding an entry
into the phonebook, you will be given
the opportunity to add more phone
numbers to the current entry or to
return to the main menu.
The Uconnect™ Phone will allow you
to enter up to 32 names in the phone-
book with each name having up to four associated phone numbers and
designations. Each language has a
separate 32-name phonebook acces-
sible only in that language. In addi-
tion, for versions/markets, where pro-
vided, and supported by your phone,
Uconnect™ Phone automatically
downloads your mobile phone’s
phonebook.
Phonebook Download —
Automatic Phonebook Transfer
From Mobile Phone
For versions/markets, where pro-
vided and specifically supported by
your phone, Uconnect™ Phone auto-
matically downloads names (text
names) and number entries from your
mobile phone’s phonebook. Specific
Bluetooth® Phones with Phone Book
Access Profile may support this fea-
ture. See Uconnect™ website for sup-
ported phones.
To call a name from downloaded
(or Uconnect™) Phonebook, follow
the procedure in “Call by Saying a
Name” section.
Automatic download and update, if supported, begins as soon as the
85
NOTE:
The default number is 112. Thenumber dialed may not be ap-
plicable with the available mo-
bile service and area.
If supported, this number may be programmable on some sys-
tems. To do this, press thebutton and say “Setup”, fol-
lowed by “Emergency”.
The Uconnect™ Phone does slightly lower your chances of
successfully making a phone
call as to that for the mobile
phone directly.WARNING!
To use your Uconnect™ Phone Sys-
tem in an emergency, your mobile
phone must be:
turned on,
paired to the Uconnect™ System,
and have network coverage.
Breakdown Service (for
versions/markets, where
provided)
If you need Breakdown service:
Press the
button to begin. After the “Ready” prompt and the
following beep, say “Breakdown
service”.
NOTE:
The Breakdown service number
has to be setup before using. To
setup, press the
button and say
“Setup, Breakdown Service” and
follow prompts.
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
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 thebutton and say
“Send.” The system will prompt you
90
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 tonesdue 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 the
button 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.
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
