NOTE:
•The driver’s door key cylinder and the
liftgate button on the RKE transmitter
cannot arm or disarm the Vehicle Security
Alarm.
• The Vehicle Security Alarm remains
armed during power liftgate entry. Press-
ing the liftgate button will not disarm the
Vehicle Security Alarm. If someone enters
the vehicle through the liftgate and opens
any door the alarm will sound.
•
When the Vehicle Security Alarm is armed,
the interior power door lock switches will
not unlock the doors.
• The ultrasonic intrusion sensor (motion
detector) actively monitors your vehicle
every time you arm the security system. If
you prefer, you can turn off the ultrasonic
intrusion sensor when arming the secu-
rity system. To do so, press the LOCK
button on the RKE transmitter three times
within 15 seconds of arming the system
(while the Vehicle Security Light is flash-
ing rapidly). The Vehicle Security Alarm is designed to pro-
tect your vehicle; however, you can create
conditions where the system will give you a
false alarm. If one of the previously described
arming sequences has occurred, the Vehicle
Security Alarm will arm regardless of whether
you are in the vehicle or not. If you remain in the
vehicle and open a door, the alarm will sound. If
this occurs, disarm the Vehicle Security Alarm.
If the Vehicle Security Alarm is armed and the
battery becomes disconnected, the Vehicle Se-
curity Alarm will remain armed when the battery
is reconnected; the exterior lights will flash, the
horn will sound. If this occurs, disarm the Ve-
hicle Security Alarm.Security System Manual OverrideThe system will not arm if you lock the doors
using the manual door lock plunger.

The courtesy lights will turn on when you use
the Remote Keyless Entry (RKE) transmitter to
unlock the doors or open any door.
This feature also turns on the approach lighting
in the outside mirrors (if equipped). Refer to
“Mirrors” in “Understanding The Features Of
Your Vehicle” for further information.
The lights will fade to off after approximately
30 seconds or they will immediately fade to off
once the ignition switch is turned to ON/RUN
from the OFF position.
NOTE:
•
The front courtesy overhead console and
door courtesy lights do not turn on if the
dimmer control is in the Dome ONposi-
tion (extreme top position).
•
The Illuminated Entry system will not oper-
ate if the dimmer control is in the “Dome

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
mirror head can be adjusted up, down, left, and
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).
Automatic Dimming Mirror — If
Equipped
This mirror automatically adjusts for headlight
glare from vehicles behind you. You can turn the
feature on or off by pressing the button at the
base of the mirror. A light in the button will
illuminate to indicate when the dimming feature
is activated. The mirror is twisted on the wind-
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
a clean cloth and wipe the mirror clean.

Outside MirrorsTo receive maximum benefit, adjust the outside
mirrors to center on the adjacent lane of traffic
with a slight overlap of the view obtained on the
inside mirror.
WARNING!
Vehicles and other objects seen in the pas-
senger side convex mirror will look smaller
and farther away than they really are. Rely-
ing too much on your passenger side convex
mirror could cause you to collide with an-
other vehicle or other object. Use your inside
mirror when judging the size or distance of a
vehicle seen in the passenger side convex
mirror. Some vehicles will not have a convex
passenger side mirror.
Outside Mirrors Folding FeatureAll outside mirrors are hinged and may be
moved either forward or rearward to resist dam-
age. The hinges have three detent positions:
•full forward
• full rearward and
• normal.

automatically adjust for glare from vehicles be-
hind you. This feature is controlled by the inside
automatic dimming mirror and can be turned on
or off by pressing the button at the base of the
inside mirror. The mirrors will automatically ad-
just for headlight glare when the inside mirror
adjusts.
Power MirrorsThe power mirror switch is located on the
driver’s side door trim panel.
The power mirror controls consist of mirror select
buttons and a four-way mirror control switch. To adjust a mirror, press the mirror select button
for the mirror that you want to adjust. Using the
mirror control switch, press on any of the four
arrows for the direction that you want the mirror to
move.

between the Uconnect® Phone and your mobile
phone as you enter or exit your vehicle and
enables you to mute the Uconnect® Phone’s
microphone for private conversation.
Illuminated Vanity Mirror

Voice Command
•For best performance, adjust the rearview
mirror to provide at least ½ in (1 cm) gap
between the overhead console (if equipped)
and the mirror.
• Always wait for the beep before speaking.
• Speak normally, without pausing, just as you
would speak to a person sitting a few feet/
meters away from you.
• Make sure that no one other than you is
speaking during a voice period.
• 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 system may not always work for some. •
When navigating through an automated sys-
tem 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 similar sound-
ing names in the Uconnect® Phonebook.
• Phonebook (Downloaded and Uconnect®
Phone Local) recognition rate is optimized
when the entries are not similar.
• Numbers must be spoken in single digits.
“800” must be spoken “eight-zero-zero” not
“eight hundred”.
• 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 performance
may be compromised with the convertible top
down. Phone 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 performance
may be compromised with the convertible top
down.
