The following describes the left-hand control operation in
each mode.

If you press the switch up or down twice, it plays the

not satisfactorily “clear” by the repositioning of the
antenna, it is recommended that the radio volume be
turned down or off during mobile phone operation when
not using Uconnect® (if equipped).
