WARNING!
RCP is not a Back Up Aid system. It
is intended to be used to help a
driver detect an oncoming vehicle
in a parking lot situation. Drivers
must be careful when backing up,
even when using RCP. Always
check carefully behind your ve-
hicle, look behind you, and be sure
to check for pedestrians, animals,
other vehicles, obstructions, and
blind spots before backing up. Fail-
ure to do so can result in serious
injury or death.
MODES OF OPERATION
Three selectable modes of operation
are available in the Electronic Vehicle
Information Center (EVIC). Refer to
"Electronic Vehicle Information Cen-
ter (EVIC)/Personal Settings
(Customer-Programmable Fea-
tures)” in “Understanding Your In-
strument Panel” for further informa-
tion.
Blind Spot Alert
When operating in Blind Spot Alert
mode, the BSM system will provide a visual alert in the appropriate side
view mirror based on a detected ob-
ject. However, when the system is op-
erating in RCP, the system will re-
spond with both visual and audible
alerts when a detected object is pres-
ent. Whenever an audible alert is re-
quested, the radio is muted.
Blind Spot Alert Lights/Chime
When operating in Blind Spot Alert
Lights/Chime mode, the BSM system
will provide a visual alert in the ap-
propriate side view mirror based on a
detected object. If the turn signal is
then activated, and it corresponds to
an alert present on that side of the
vehicle, an audible chime will also be
sounded. Whenever a turn signal and
detected object are present on the
same side at the same time, both the
visual and audio alerts will be issued.
In addition to the audible alert the
radio (if on) will also be muted.
NOTE:
Whenever an audible alert is re-
quested by the BSM system, the
radio is also muted. If the hazard flashers are on, the
system will request the appro-
priate visual alert only.
When the system is in RCP, the system
shall respond with both visual and
audible alerts when a detected object
is present. Whenever an audible alert
is requested, the radio is also muted.
Turn/hazard signal status is ignored;
the RCP state always requests the
chime.
Blind Spot Alert Off
When the BSM system is turned off
there will be no visual or audible
alerts from either the BSM or RCP
systems.
NOTE: The BSM system will
store the current operating mode
when the vehicle is shut off. Each
time the vehicle is started the pre-
viously stored mode will be re-
called and used.
Astronomy Zone — System Tempo-
rarily Unavailable
When the vehicle enters this zone the
blind spot system will become tempo-
rarily unavailable and the EVIC will
83
Page 90 of 360

display the message “ Blind spot sys-
tem unavailable-Astronomy zone”.
The side mirrors LED’s will be lit up
and stay lit until the vehicle exits the
zone.

Uconnect™ Phone is a voice-
activated, hands-free, in-vehicle com-
munications system. Uconnect™
Phone allows you to dial a phone
number with your mobile phone* us-
ing simple voice commands (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.

through your Bluetooth® “Hands-
Free profile” mobile phone.
Uconnect™ Phone features
Bluetooth® technology - the global
standard that enables different elec-
tronic devices to connect to each other
without 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, 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.

The Uconnect™ Phone can be used
with Hands-Free Profile certified
Bluetooth® mobile phones. Some
phones may not support all the
Uconnect™ Phone features. Refer to
your mobile service provider or the
phone manufacturer for details.
The Uconnect™ Phone is fully inte-
grated with the vehicle's audio sys-
tem. The volume of the Uconnect™
Phone can be adjusted either from the
radio volume control knob or from the
steering wheel radio control, if so
equipped.
The radio display will be used for
visual prompts from the Uconnect™
Phone such as CELL or caller ID on
certain radios.
COMPATIBLE PHONES
* The Uconnect™ Phone requires
a mobile phone equipped with the
Bluetooth® “Hands-Free Profile”,
version 1.0 or higher.To find the list of compatible phones
navigate through the following menus: Select model year for the vehicle Select type of the vehicle
In the getting started tab, select

OPERATION
Voice commands can be used to oper-
ate 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 an-
other prompt.
For certain operations, compound commands can be used. For ex-
ample, instead of saying “Setup”
and then “Phone Pairing”, the fol-
lowing compound command can be
said: “Setup Phone Pairing”.
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 com-
mand when you are asked for it.
For example, you can use the com-
pound 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 conver-
sational tone, as if speaking to
someone sitting a few 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 want to know your options at
any prompt, say “Help” following the
beep. The Uconnect™ Phone will
play all the options at any prompt if
you ask for help.
To activate the Uconnect™ Phone
from idle, simply press the
button
85
Page 92 of 360

and follow the audible prompts for
directions. All Uconnect™ Phone ses-
sions begin with a press of the
but-
ton on the radio control head.
Cancel Command
At any prompt, after the beep, you
can say “Cancel” and you will be re-
turned to the main menu. However, in
a few instances the system will take
you back to the previous menu.
Pair (Link) Uconnect™ Phone To
A Mobile Phone
To begin using your Uconnect™
Phone, you must pair your compatible
Bluetooth® enabled mobile phone
(refer to “Compatible Phones” section
to learn about the phone type).To complete the pairing process, you
will need to reference your mobile
phone owner's manual. The
Uconnect™ website may also provide
detailed instructions for pairing.
The following are general phone to
Uconnect™ Phone pairing instruc-
tions:
Press the
button to begin. After the “Ready” prompt and the
following beep, say “Setup Phone
Pairing”.
When prompted, after the beep, say “Pair a Phone” and follow the au-
dible prompts.
You will be asked to say a four-digit Personal Identification Number
(PIN), which you will later need to
enter into your mobile phone. You
can enter any four-digit PIN. You
will not need to remember this PIN
after the initial pairing process.
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 be-
tween 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 pri-
ority allows the Uconnect™ Phone
to know which mobile phone to use
if multiple mobile phones are in the
vehicle at the same time. For ex-
ample, if priority 3 and priority 5
phones are present in the vehicle,
the Uconnect™ Phone will use the
priority 3 mobile phone when you
make a call. You can select to use a
lower priority mobile phone at any
time (refer to “Advanced Phone
Connectivity”).
