UCONNECT™ PHONE
NOTE:
For Uconnect™ Phone
with Navigation or Multimedia ra-
dio, refer to the Navigation or Mul-
timedia radio's User's Manual
(separate booklet) Uconnect™
Phone section.
Uconnect™ Phone is a voice-activated,
hands-free, in-vehicle communications
system. Uconnect™ Phone allows you
to dial a phone number with your mo-
bile phone* using simple voice com-
mands (e.g., “Call”…“Jim”… “Work” or “Dial”…“151-1234 -5555”). Your
mobile phone's audio is transmitted
through your vehicle's audio system;
the system will automatically mute your
radio when using the Uconnect™
Phone.
Uconnect™ Phone allows you to
transfer calls 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.The Uconnect™ Phone is driven
through your Bluetooth® “Hands-Free
profile” mobile phone. Uconnect™
Phone features Bluetooth® technology -
the global standard that enables differ-
ent electronic devices to connect to each
other without wires or a docking sta-
tion, so Uconnect™ Phone works no
matter where you stow your mobile
phone (be it your purse, pocket, or
briefcase), 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 sys-
tem. 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, including laws regarding
phone use. All attention should be
kept on the roadway ahead. Failure
to do so may result in a collision
causing serious injury or death.

controls will contain the two
control buttons (Uconnect™
Phone
button and
Voice Commandbutton) that
will enable you to access the system.
When you press the button you will
hear the word Uconnect™ followed
by a BEEP. The beep is your signal to
give a command.

tion of the left-hand switch is differ-
ent, depending on which mode you

SEEK up for the next listenable sta-
tion, and pressing the bottom of the

RADIO OPERATION AND
MOBILE PHONES
Under certain conditions, the mobile
phone being on in your vehicle can
cause erratic or noisy performance
from your radio. This condition may
be lessened or eliminated by relocat-
ing the mobile phone antenna. This
condition is not harmful to the radio.
If your radio performance does not
satisfactorily “clear” by the reposi-
tioning of the antenna, it is recom-
mended that the radio volume be
turned down or off during mobile
phone operation.
CLIMATE CONTROLS
The air conditioning and heating sys-
tem is designed to make you comfort-
able in all types of weather.
AUTOMATIC
TEMPERATURE CONTROL
(ATC)Automatic Operation
The Automatic Temperature Control
system automatically maintains the
climate in the cabin of the vehicle at
the comfort levels desired by the
driver and passenger.
Operation of the system is quite
simple.
1. Turn the Mode Control knob (on
the right) and the Blower Control
knob (on the left) to AUTO.NOTE: The AUTO position per-
forms best for front seat occupants
only.
2.
Dial in the tem-
perature you would
like the system to
maintain by rotat-
ing the Tempera-
ture Control knob.
Once the comfort
level is selected, the system will main-
tain that level automatically using the
heating system. Should the desired
comfort level require air conditioning,
the system will automatically make the
adjustment.
You will experience the greatest effi-
ciency by simply allowing the system
to function automatically. Selecting
the “O” (OFF) position on the blower
control stops the system completely
and closes the outside air intake.
The recommended setting for maxi-
mum comfort is 22°C for the average
person; however, this may vary.
