Using The Remote Keyless Entry
Transmitter
You cannot use the power top button
on the RKE transmitter to raise the
power convertible top. You must use
the power top switch inside the ve-
hicle to perform this operation.
Manually Raising
Raising the power convertible top
manually should only be performed by
an authorized dealer. In the event that
you experience a malfunction when
operating the power convertible top:1.
Read all of the Notes, Cautions, and
Warning found under “Power Convert-
ible Top Usage Precautions” to verify
all operating conditions are met.

Check for Operation and Warning
Messages as described under “Power
Convertible Top Operation and Warn-
ing Messages.” If applicable, perform
the related action to correct the condi-
tion present.
3. If Steps 1 and 2 do not resolve the
problem, refer to “Emergency Bypass
Mode”.
WIND STOP
The Wind Stop installs in the backseat
area of the vehicle. The Wind Stop
will not interfere with power top op-
eration. Therefore, it can remain in-
stalled when the top is up. However,
when not in use, the Wind Stop folds
to allow for convenient storage under-
neath the cargo shield in the trunk.
NOTE: It is recommended that
you lower the convertible top be-
fore installing or removing the
Wind Stop. Installing The Wind Stop
1. Remove the Wind Stop from the
trunk.
2. Unfold the Wind Stop framework.
3. Lay the small frame (1) flat on top
of the large frame (2) and snap the
two frames together by engaging the
frame lock (3).
NOTE: The frames must lie flat
on each other in order to snap
them together.

CAUTION!To avoid damage to the mirror dur-
ing cleaning, never spray any clean-
ing solution directly onto the mirror.
Apply the solution onto a clean cloth
and wipe the mirror clean.OUTSIDE MIRRORS
To receive maximum benefit, adjust
the outside mirrors to center on the
adjacent lane of traffic and a slight
overlap of the view obtained from the
inside mirror.
NOTE: The passenger side con-
vex outside mirror will give a
much wider view to the rear, and
especially of the lane next to your
vehicle.
WARNING!
Vehicles and other objects seen in
the passenger side convex mirror
will look smaller and farther away
than they really are. Relying too
much on your passenger side con-
vex mirror could cause you to col-
lide with another vehicle or other
object. Use your inside mirror when
judging the size or distance of a
vehicle seen in the passenger side
convex mirror.
POWER MIRRORS
The power mirror switch is located on
the driver's door trim. A rotary knob
selects the left mirror, right mirror or
off position. After selecting a mirror, move the
knob in the same direction you want
the mirror to move. When finished,
return the knob to the center “O”
(Off) position to guard against acci-
dentally moving a mirror position.

melt frost or ice. This feature is
activated whenever you turn
on the rear window defroster. Refer to

Voice Training
For users experiencing difficulty with
the Uconnect™ Phone recognizing
their voice commands or numbers,
the Uconnect™ Phone Voice Training
feature may be used. To enter this
training mode, follow one of the two
following procedures:

mode (e.g., from radio mode)
Press and hold the
button for
five seconds until the session be-
gins, or,
Press the
button and say the
“Voice Training”, “System Train-

prompted by the Uconnect™ Phone.
For best results, the Voice Training
session should be completed when the
vehicle is parked with the engine run-
ning, all windows closed, and the
blower fan switched OFF.
This procedure may be repeated with
a new user. The system will adapt to
the last trained voice only. To restore the Voice Command system
to factory default settings, enter the
Voice Training session via the above
procedure and follow the prompts.
Reset
Press the
button.
After the “Ready” prompt, and the following beep, say “Setup”, then
“Reset”.
This will delete all phone pairing,
phone book entries, and other settings
in all language modes. The System
will prompt you before resetting to
factory settings.
Voice Command
For best performance, adjust the rearview mirror to provide at least
½ in (1 cm) gap between the over-
head 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 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 similar
sounding names in the Uconnect™
Phonebook.
79
Phonebook (Downloaded andUconnect™ Phone Local) recogni-
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 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.

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.
