NOTE: After every Uconnect®
Phone language change operation,
only the language-specific 32-
name phonebook is usable. The
paired phone name is not
language-specific and is usable
across all languages.
Emergency Assistance
If you are in an emergency and the
mobile phone is reachable:
Pick up the phone and manuallydial the emergency number for
your area.
If the phone is not reachable and the
Uconnect® Phone is operational, you
may reach the emergency number as
follows:
Press the
button to begin.
After the “Listening” prompt and the following beep, say “Call Emer-
gency or Dial Emergency” and the
Uconnect® Phone will instruct the
paired mobile phone to call the
emergency number. This feature is
supported in the U.S., Canada, and
Mexico. NOTE:
The Emergency call may also be
initiated by using the touch-
screen.
The emergency number dialed is based on the country where the
vehicle is purchased. The num-
ber dialed may not be appli-
cable with the available mobile
service and area.
The Uconnect® Phone does slightly lower your chances of
successfully making a phone
call as to that for the mobile
phone directly.
WARNING!
Your phone must be turned on and
connected to the Uconnect® Phone
to allow use of this vehicle feature
in emergency situations, when the
mobile phone has network coverage
and stays connected to the
Uconnect® Phone. Breakdown Service (for
versions/markets, where
provided)
If you need Breakdown service:
Press the
button to begin.
After the “Ready” prompt and the following beep, say “Breakdown
service.”
NOTE: The Breakdown service
number has to be setup before us-
ing. To setup, press the
button
and say “Setup, Breakdown Ser-
vice” and follow prompts.
Paging
To learn how to page, refer to “Work-
ing with Automated Systems.” Paging
works properly except for pagers of
certain companies, which time out a
little too soon to work properly with
the Uconnect® Phone.
Voice Mail Calling
To learn how to access your voice
mail, refer to “Working with Auto-
mated Systems.”

Working With Automated Systems
This method is used in instances
where one generally has to press num-
bers on the mobile phone keypad
while navigating through an auto-
mated telephone system.
You can use your Uconnect® Phone to
access a voice mail system or an auto-
mated service, such as a paging ser-
vice or automated customer service
line. Some services require immediate
response selection. In some instances,
that may be too quick for use of the
Uconnect® Phone.
When calling a number with your
Uconnect® Phone that normally re-
quires you to enter in a touch-tone
sequence on your mobile phone key-
pad, you can utilize the touchscreen
or press the
button and say the
word “Send” then the sequence you
wish to enter. For example, if required
to enter your PIN followed with a
pound, (3746#),youcanpressthe
button and say, “Send3746#.”
Saying “Send” followed by a number,
or sequence of numbers, is also to be used for navigating through an auto-
mated customer service center menu
structure, and to leave a number on a
pager.
You can also send stored mobile
phonebook entries as tones for fast
and easy access to voice mail and
pager entries. For example, if you pre-
viously created a Phonebook entry
with First and/or Last Name as
“Voicemail Password”, then if you
press the
button and say “Send
Voicemail Password” the Uconnect®
Phone will then send the correspond-
ing phone number associated with the
phonebook entry, as tones over the
phone.
NOTE:
The first number encountered for that contact will be sent. All
other numbers entered for that
contact will be ignored.
You may not hear all of the tones due to mobile phone network
configurations. This is normal. Some paging and voice mail sys-
tems have system time out set-
tings that are too short and may
not allow the use of this feature.
Pauses, wait or other characters that are supported by some
phones are not supported over
Bluetooth®. These additional
symbols will be ignored in the
dialing a numbered sequence.
Barge In — Overriding Prompts
The
button can be used when
you wish to skip part of a prompt and
issue your voice command immedi-
ately. For example, if a prompt is ask-
ing “There are two numbers with the
name John. Say the full name” you
could press the
button and say,
“John Smith” to select that option
without having to listen to the rest of
the voice prompt.

HEAD RESTRAINTS
Head restraints are designed to reduce
the risk of injury by restricting headmovement in the event of a rear im-
pact. Head restraints should be ad-
justed so that the top of the head
restraint is located above the top of
your ear.
WARNING!
The head restraints for all occu-
pants must be properly adjusted
prior to operating the vehicle or
occupying a seat. Head restraints
should never be adjusted while the
vehicle is in motion. Driving a ve-
hicle with the head restraints im-
properly adjusted or removed could
cause serious injury or death in the
event of a collision.
Active Head Restraints — Front
Seats
The front driver and passenger seats
are equipped with Active Head Re-
straints (AHR). In the event of a rear
impact the AHRs will automatically
extend forward minimizing the gap
between the back of the occupants
head and the AHR. The AHRs will automatically return
to their normal position following a
rear impact. If the AHRs do not return
to their normal position see your au-
thorized dealer immediately.
To raise the head restraint, pull up-
ward on the head restraint. To lower
the head restraint, press the push but-
ton, located at the base of the head
restraint, and push downward on the
head restraint.
NOTE: The head restraints
should only be removed by quali-
fied technicians, for service pur-
poses only. If either of the head
restraints require removal, see
your authorized dealer.Controls Soft-Key

DISPLAY WARNINGS AND
MAINTENANCE
“Clean Radar Sensor In Front Of
Vehicle” Warning
The ACC “Clean Radar Sensor In
Front Of Vehicle” warning will dis-
play when conditions temporarily
limit system performance. This most
often occurs at times of poor visibility,
such as in snow or heavy rain. The
ACC system may also become tempo-
rarily blinded due to obstructions,
such as mud, dirt or ice. In these
cases, the EVIC will display “Clean
Radar Sensor In Front Of Vehicle”
and the system will deactivate.
The “Clean Radar Sensor In Front Of
Vehicle” message can sometimes be
displayed while driving in highly re-
flective areas (i.e. tunnels with reflec-
tive tiles, or ice and snow). The ACC
system will recover after the vehicle
has left these areas. Under rare condi-
tions, when the radar is not tracking
any vehicles or objects in its path this
warning may temporarily occur.NOTE: If the ACC “Clean Radar
Sensor In Front Of Vehicle” warn-
ing is active Normal (Fixed Speed)
Cruise Control is still available.
For additional information refer to
“Normal (Fixed Speed) Cruise
Control Mode” in this section.
If weather conditions are not a factor,
the driver should examine the sensor.
It may require cleaning or removal of
an obstruction. The sensor is located
in the center of the vehicle behind the
lower grille.
To keep the ACC System operating
properly, it is important to note the
following maintenance items:
Always keep the sensor clean. Care-
fully wipe the sensor lens with a soft
cloth. Be cautious not to damage
the sensor lens.
Do not remove any screws from the sensor. Doing so could cause an
ACC system malfunction or failure
and require a sensor realignment.
If the sensor is damaged due to a collision, see your authorized dealer
for service. Do not attach or install any acces-
sories near the sensor, including
transparent material or aftermar-
ket grilles. Doing so could cause an
ACC system failure or malfunction.
When the condition that deactivated
the system is no longer present, the
system will return to the “Adaptive
Cruise Control Off” state and will re-
sume function by simply reactivating
it.
NOTE: Installing a vehicle front-
end protector or an aftermarket
grille or modifying the grille is not
recommended. Doing so may
block the sensor and inhibit ACC
operation.
ACC Unavailable Warning
If the system turns off, and the EVIC
displays “Adaptive Cruise Control
(ACC) Unavailable”, there may be a
temporary malfunction that limits
ACC functionality. Although the ve-
hicle is still drivable under normal
conditions, ACC will be temporarily
132
If the FCW becomes disabledthen a warning will display on
the EVIC screen.
FCW Unavailable Warning
If the system turns off, and the EVIC
displays “ACC/FCW Unavailable,
Service Required”, there may be a
temporary malfunction that limits
FCW functionality. Although the ve-
hicle is still drivable under normal
conditions, FCW will be temporarily
unavailable. If this occurs, try activat-
ing FCW again later, following a key
cycle. If the problem persists, see your
authorized dealer.PARKSENSE® PARK
ASSIST
The ParkSense® Park Assist system
provides visual and audible indica-
tions of the distance between the rear
and/or front fascia and a detected ob-
stacle when backing up or moving
forward, e.g. during a parking ma-
neuver. Refer to ParkSense® System
Usage Precautions for limitations of
this system and recommendations.
ParkSense® will retain the last sys-
tem state (enabled or disabled) from
the last ignition cycle when the igni-
tion is changed to the ON/RUN posi-
tion.
ParkSense® can be active only when
the shift lever is in REVERSE or
DRIVE. If ParkSense® is enabled at
one of these shift lever positions, the
system will remain active until the
vehicle speed is increased to approxi-
mately 11 km/h or above. The system
will become active again if the vehicle
speed is decreased to speeds less than
approximately 9 km/h.
PARKSENSE® SENSORS
The four ParkSense® sensors, located
in the rear fascia/bumper, monitor the
area behind the vehicle that is within
the sensors’ field of view. The sensors
can detect obstacles up to approxi-
mately 150 cm from the rear fascia/
bumper in the horizontal direction,
depending on the location, type and
orientation of the obstacle.
The six ParkSense® sensors, located
in the front fascia/bumper, monitor
the area in front of the vehicle that is
within the sensors’ field of view. The
sensors can detect obstacles up to ap-
proximately 120 cm from the front
fascia/bumper in the horizontal direc-
tion, depending on the location, type
and orientation of the obstacle.
PARKSENSE® WARNING
DISPLAY
The ParkSense® Warning screen will
only be displayed if Sound and Dis-
play is selected from the Uconnect®ACC/FCW Unavailable, Service Required Warning
137
SERVICE THE
PARKSENSE® PARK
ASSIST SYSTEM
During vehicle start up, when the
ParkSense® Park Assist system has
detected a fault condition, the Elec-
tronic Vehicle Information Center
(EVIC) will actuate a single chime,
once per ignition cycle, and it will
display the “CLEAN PARK ASSIST”,
“SERVICE PARK ASSIST” or the
“SERVICE PARK ASSIST SYSTEM”
message. Refer to “Electronic Vehicle
Information Center (EVIC)” in “Un-
derstanding Your Instrument Panel”
for further information. When the
shift lever is moved to REVERSE and
the system has detected a fault condi-
tion, the EVIC will display the
"CLEAN PARK ASSIST", "SERVICE
PARK ASSIST", or "SERVICE PARK
ASSIST SYSTEM" message for as
long as the vehicle is in REVERSE.
Under this condition, ParkSense®
will not operate.
CLEANING THE PARK
ASSIST SYSTEM
Clean the sensors with water, car
wash soap and a soft cloth. Do not use
rough or hard cloths. Do not scratch
or poke the sensors. Otherwise, you
could damage the sensors.
PARKSENSE® SYSTEM
USAGE PRECAUTIONS
NOTE:
Ensure that the front and rearbumper are free of snow, ice,
mud, dirt and debris to keep the
ParkSense® system operating
properly.
Jackhammers, large trucks, and other vibrations could affect the
performance of ParkSense®.
When you turn ParkSense® off, the EVIC will display “PARK
ASSIST SYSTEM OFF.” Further-
more, once you turn
ParkSense® off, it remains off
until you turn it on again, even if
you cycle the ignition key. When you move the shift lever to
the REVERSE position and
ParkSense® is turned off, the
EVIC will display “PARK AS-
SIST SYSTEM OFF” message for
as long as the vehicle is in RE-
VERSE at or below 11 km/h.
ParkSense®, when on, will MUTE the radio when it is
sounding a tone.
Clean the ParkSense® sensors regularly, taking care not to
scratch or damage them. The
sensors must not be covered
with ice, snow, slush, mud, dirt
or debris. Failure to do so can
result in the system not working
properly. The ParkSense® sys-
tem might not detect an obstacle
behind or in front of the fascia/
bumper, or it could provide a
false indication that an obstacle
is behind or in front of the
fascia/bumper.
Objects such as bicycle carriers, trailer hitches, etc., must not be
placed within 30 cm from the
140
rear fascia/bumper while driv-
ing the vehicle. Failure to do so
can result in the system misin-
terpreting a close object as a
sensor problem, causing the
“SERVICE PARK ASSIST” mes-
sage to be displayed in the EVIC.
CAUTION!
ParkSense® is only a parking aidand it is unable to recognize every
obstacle, including small ob-
stacles. Parking curbs might be
temporarily detected or not de-
tected at all. Obstacles located
above or below the sensors will
not be detected when they are in
close proximity.
The vehicle must be driven slowly when using ParkSense® in order
to be able to stop in time when an
obstacle is detected. When back-
ing up, it is recommended that
the driver looks over his/her
shoulder when using
ParkSense®.
WARNING!
Drivers must be careful whenbacking up even when using the
ParkSense® Park Assist system.
Always check carefully behind
your vehicle, look behind you,
and be sure to check for pedestri-
ans, animals, other vehicles, ob-
structions, and blind spots before
backing up. You are responsible
for safety and must continue to
pay attention to your surround-
ings. Failure to do so can result in
serious injury or death.
(Continued)
WARNING!(Continued)
Before using the ParkSense®Park Assist system, it is strongly
recommended that the ball
mount and hitch ball assembly is
disconnected from the vehicle
when the vehicle is not used for
towing. Failure to do so can result
in injury or damage to vehicles or
obstacles because the hitch ball
will be much closer to the obstacle
than the rear fascia when the
warning display turns on the
single flashing arc and sounds the
continuous tone. Also, the sensors
could detect the ball mount and
hitch ball assembly, depending on
its size and shape, giving a false
indication that an obstacle is be-
hind the vehicle.
