MIRRORS
Inside Day/Night MirrorA single ball joint mirror is provided in the
vehicle. It is a twist on mirror that has a fixed
position at the windshield. The mirror installs on
the windshield button with a counterclockwise
rotation and requires no tools for mounting. The

right for various drivers. The mirror should be
adjusted to center on the view through the rear
window.
Headlight glare from vehicles behind you can
be reduced by moving the small control under
the mirror to the night position (toward the rear
of the vehicle). The mirror should be adjusted
while the small control under the mirror is set in
the day position (toward the windshield).

shield button counterclockwise and requires no
tools for mounting.NOTE:
This feature is disabled when the vehicle is
moving in reverse.
CAUTION!
To avoid damage to the mirror during clean-
ing, never spray any cleaning solution di-
rectly onto the mirror. Apply the solution onto

The Uconnect® Phone is driven through your
Bluetooth® “Hands-Free profile” mobile phone.
Uconnect® Phone features Bluetooth® technol-
ogy - the global standard that enables different
electronic devices to connect to each other with-
out wires or a docking station, so Uconnect®
Phone works no matter where you stow your
mobile phone (be it your purse, pocket, or brief-
case), as long as your phone is turned on and has
been paired to the vehicle’s Uconnect® Phone.
The Uconnect® Phone allows up to seven mobile
phones to be linked to the system. Only one
linked (or paired) mobile phone can be used with
the Uconnect® Phone at a time. The Uconnect®
Phone is available in English, Dutch, French,
German, Italian or Spanish languages (as
equipped).
WARNING!
Any voice commanded system should be
used only in safe driving conditions following
all applicable laws. Your attention should be
focused on safely operating the vehicle. Fail-
ure to do so may result in a collision causing
serious injury or death.Uconnect® Phone Button

OperationVoice commands can be used to operate the
Uconnect® Phone and to navigate through the
Uconnect® Phone menu structure. Voice com-
mands 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 “Ready”
prompt or another prompt.
• For certain operations, compound com-
mands can be used. For example, instead of
saying “Setup” and then “Pair a Device”, the
following compound command can be said:
“Pair a Bluetooth® Device”.
•
For each feature explanation in this section,
only the compound 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 example, you
can use the compound form voice command
“Phonebook New Entry”, or you can break the
compound form command into two voice com-
mands: “Phonebook” and “New Entry”. Please remember, the Uconnect® Phone works best
when you talk in a normal conversational tone,
as if speaking to someone sitting a few feet/
meters away from you.
Voice Command Tree
Refer to “Voice Tree” in this section.
Help Command
If you need assistance at any prompt, or if you

dible prompts for directions. All Uconnect®

must pair your compatible Bluetooth® enabled
mobile phone (refer to “Compatible Phones”
section to learn about the phone type).

•For identification purposes, you will be
prompted to give the Uconnect® Phone a
name for your mobile phone. Each mobile
phone that is paired should be given a unique
phone name.
• You will then be asked to give your 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 priority 3 mobile phone when you make a

mobile phone at any time (refer to “Advanced
Phone Connectivity”).
