button to begin.
2. After the “Listening” prompt and the following beep, say “Roadside Assistance” or say “Towing Assis-

Mexico City and 1-800-712-3040 for outside Mexico City
in Mexico). Please refer to the FCA US LLC 24-Hour
“Roadside Assistance” coverage details in the Warranty
Information Booklet and in the Owner ’s Information
Manual on the DVD under “Other References.”
Voice Mail Calling
To learn how to access your voice mail, refer to “Working
with Automated Systems.”
Working With Automated Systems
This method is used in instances where one generally has
to push numbers on the mobile phone keypad while
navigating through an automated telephone system.
You can use your Uconnect Phone to access a voice mail
system or an automated service, such as a paging service
186 UNDERSTANDING THE FEATURES OF YOUR VEHICLE

or automated customer service line. Some services re-
quire 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 requires you to enter in a touch-tone sequence
on your mobile phone keypad, you can utilize the
touchscreen or push the Voice Command
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#),youcanpush the
Voice Command
button and say, “Send3746#.”
Saying “Send” followed by a number, or sequence of
numbers, is also to be used for navigating through an
automated 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 previously created a Phone-
book entry with First and/or Last Name as “Voicemail
Password”, then if you push the Voice Command
but-
ton and say “Send Voicemail Password” the Uconnect
Phone will then send the corresponding phone num-
ber 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 systems have system time
out settings that are too short and may not allow the
use of this feature.

UNDERSTANDING THE FEATURES OF YOUR VEHICLE 187

•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 Voice Commandbutton can be used when you
wish to skip part of a prompt and issue your voice
command immediately. For example, if a prompt is
asking “There are two numbers with the name John.
Say the full name” you could push the Voice Com-
mand
button and say, “John Smith” to select that
option without having to listen to the rest of the voice
prompt.
Voice Response Length
It is possible for you to choose between Brief and
Detailed Voice Response Length.
1. Press the “Settings” button on the touchscreen. 2. Press the “Voice” button on the touchscreen, then
scroll down to Voice Response Length.
3. Select either “Brief” or “Detailed” by pressing the box next to the selection. A check-mark will appear to
indicate your selection.
Phone And Network Status Indicators
Uconnect Phone will provide notification to inform you
of your phone and network status when you are attempt-
ing to make a phone call using Uconnect Phone. The
status is given for network signal strength and phone
battery strength.
Dialing Using The Mobile Phone Keypad
You can dial a phone number with your mobile phone
keypad and still use the Uconnect Phone (while dialing
via the mobile phone keypad, the user must exercise
caution and take precautionary safety measures). By
dialing a number with your connected Bluetooth mobile
188 UNDERSTANDING THE FEATURES OF YOUR VEHICLE

phone, the audio will be played through your vehicle’s
audio system. The Uconnect Phone will work the same as
if you dial the number using voice a command.
NOTE:Certain brands of mobile phones do not send the
dial ring to the Uconnect Phone to play it on the vehicle
audio system, so you will not hear it. Under this situa-
tion, after successfully dialing a number the user may feel
that the call did not go through even though the call is in
progress. Once your call is answered, you will hear the
audio.
Mute/Un-Mute (Mute ON/OFF)
When you mute the Uconnect Phone, you will still be
able to hear the conversation coming from the other
party, but the other party will not be able to hear you. To
mute the Uconnect Phone simply press the “Mute”
button on the Phone main screen.
Advanced Phone Connectivity
Transfer Call To And From Mobile Phone
The Uconnect Phone allows ongoing calls to be trans-
ferred from your mobile phone to the Uconnect Phone
without terminating the call. To transfer an ongoing call
from your connected mobile phone to the Uconnect
Phone or vice versa, press the “Transfer” button on the
Phone main screen.
Connect Or Disconnect Link Between The
Uconnect Phone And Mobile Phone
