The PTCM will lockout the power convertible top system if the vehicle charging system is malfunctioning, or the
battery is run down, or the hydraulic pump is overheating. In addition, the system prohibits lowering the top when
ambient temperature is at 0°F (-18°C) or lower and raising the top when ambient temperature is below -40°F (-40°C).

Emergency Bypass Mode (To Raise The Top
Only)
This procedure is only to be used to raise the top when
the top cannot be returned to the UP (raised) position by
pressing the POWER TOP switch or is in a position in
which the vehicle cannot be driven. Please follow these
emergency bypass instructions to return the top to the UP
(raised) position.
Press the POWER TOP switch in the Top Up direction
five times within two seconds and hold the switch in the
Top Up position for a minimum of two minutes.
CAUTION!
•Once this procedure has been completed and the
top is in the UP (raised) position, see your autho-
rized dealer.
(Continued)
CAUTION! (Continued)
•DO NOT exceed 40 mph (64 km/h).
• Using the Emergency Bypass Mode could poten-
tially damage the convertible top and should only
be used to raise the power top to the UP (raised)
position when the normal top operation is not
functioning.
If damage starts to occur while in the Emergency Bypass
Mode, immediately release the power top switch and see
your authorized dealer.
NOTE: This procedure may take more time to fully raise
and close the power top. It is not uncommon to see
delays of up to 30 seconds before operation begins.

•When navigating through an automated 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.
• Phonebook (Downloaded and Uconnect® Phone Lo-
cal) name 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.
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’s 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.

indicator system. The “Oil Change Required” message

time you turn the ignition switch to the ON/RUN
position. To turn off the message temporarily, press and
release the Menu button. To reset the oil change indicator
