MIRRORS
INSIDE DAY/NIGHT
MIRROR (for versions/
markets, where provided)
A two-point pivot system allows for
horizontal and vertical adjustment of
the mirror. Adjust the mirror to center
on the view through the rear window.
Headlight glare 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 set in the day
position (toward the windshield).AUTOMATIC DIMMING
MIRROR (for versions/
markets, where provided)
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 to the left of the
button will illuminate to indicate
when the dimming feature is acti-
vated. The sensor to the right of the
button does not illuminate.
NOTE: This feature is disabled
when the vehicle is moving in re-
verse.
CAUTION!
To avoid damage to the mirror dur-
ing cleaning, never spray any
cleaning 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 mirror(s) 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
an outside convex mirror will look
smaller and farther away than they
really are. Relying too much on side
convex mirrors could cause you to
collide with another vehicle or
other object. Use your inside mirror
when judging the size or distance of
a vehicle seen in a side convex mir-
ror.

TILT MIRRORS IN
REVERSE (available with
memory seat only), (for
versions/markets, where
provided)
Tilt Mirrors in Reverse provides auto-
matic outside mirror positioning
which will aid the drivers view of the
ground rearward of the front doors.
The driver's outside mirror will move
slightly downward from the present
position when the vehicle is shifted
into REVERSE. The driver's outside
mirror will then return to the original
position when the vehicle is shifted
out of REVERSE position. Each
stored memory setting will have an
associated Tilt Mirrors in Reverse po-
sition.
NOTE: The Tilt Mirrors in Re-
verse feature is not enabled when
delivered from the factory. The Tilt
Mirrors in Reverse feature can be
enabled or disabled in the Elec-
tronic Vehicle Information Center
(EVIC). Refer to “Electronic Ve-
hicle Information Center (EVIC)/Customer-Programmable Fea-
tures” in “Understanding Your
Instrument Panel” for further in-
formation.

BLIND SPOT
MONITORING (for
versions/markets, where
provided)
The Blind Spot Monitoring (BSM)
system uses two radar-based sensors,
located inside the rear bumper fascia,
to detect highway licensable vehicles
(automobiles, trucks, motorcycles,
etc.) that enter the blind spot zones
from the rear/front/side of the ve-
hicle.
When the vehicle is started, the BSM
warning light will momentarily illu-
minate in both outside rear view mir-
rors to let the driver know that the
system is operational. The BSM sys-
tem sensors operate when the vehicleis in any forward gear or REVERSE
and enters stand-by mode when the
vehicle is in PARK.
The BSM detection zone covers ap-
proximately one lane on both sides of
the vehicle or 3.35 m. The zone starts
at the outside rear view mirror and
extends approximately 6 m to the rear
of the vehicle. The BSM system moni-
tors the detection zones on both sides
of the vehicle when the vehicle speed
reaches approximately 10 km/h or
higher and will alert the driver of ve-
hicles in these areas.
NOTE:
The BSM system does NOT alert
the driver about rapidly ap-
proaching vehicles that are out-
side the detection zones.
The BSM system detection zone DOES NOT change if your ve-
hicle is towing a trailer. There-
fore, visually verify the adjacent
lane is clear for both your ve-
hicle and trailer before making
a lane change. If the trailer or
other object (i.e., bicycle, sports equipment) extends beyond the
side of your vehicle, this may re-
sult in the BSM warning light
remaining illuminated the en-
tire time the vehicle is in a for-
ward gear.
The area on the rear fascia where the
radar sensors are located must remain
free of snow, ice, and dirt/road con-
tamination so that the BSM system
can function properly. Do not block
the area of the rear fascia where the
radar sensors are located with foreign
objects (bumper stickers, bicycle
racks, etc.).

The BSM system is designed not to
issue an alert on stationary objects
such as guardrails, posts, walls, foli-
age, berms, etc. However, occasion-
ally the system may alert on such ob-
jects. This is normal operation and
your vehicle does not require service.
The BSM system will not alert you of
objects that are traveling in the oppo-
site direction of the vehicle in adjacent
lanes.
WARNING!
The Blind Spot Monitoring system
is only an aid to help detect objects
in the blind spot zones. The BSM
system is not designed to detect pe-
destrians, bicyclists, or animals.
Even if your vehicle is equipped
with the BSM system, always check
your vehicle's mirrors, glance over
your shoulder, and use your turn
signal before changing lanes. Fail-
ure to do so can result in serious
injury or death.
REAR CROSS PATH (for
versions/markets, where
provided)
The Rear Cross Path (RCP) feature is
intended to aid the driver when back-
ing out of parking spaces where their
vision of oncoming vehicles may be
blocked. Proceed slowly and cau-
tiously out of the parking space until
the rear end of the vehicle is exposed.
The RCP system will then have a clear
view of the cross traffic and if an
oncoming vehicle is detected, alert the
driver. RCP monitors the rear detection
zones on both sides of the vehicle, for
objects that are moving toward the
side of the vehicle with a minimum
speed of approximately 1 km/h to
3 km/h, to objects moving a maxi-
mum of approximately 16 km/h, such
as in parking lot situations.
NOTE: In a parking lot situation,
oncoming vehicles can be ob-
scured by vehicles parked on ei-
ther side. If the sensors are
blocked by other structures or ve-
hicles, the system will not be able
to alert the driver.
When RCP is on and the vehicle is in
REVERSE, the driver is alerted using
both the visual and audible alarms,
including reducing the radio volume.

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 simi-
lar sounding names in the
Uconnect™ Phonebook.
Phonebook (Downloaded and Uconnect™ 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.
In a convertible vehicle, system per- formance may be compromised
with the convertible top down.
