3G Wi-Fi Hotspot
3G Wi-Fi Hotspot is an in-vehicle feature that
connects your device to an operable 1X
(voice/data) or 3G (data) network using
Uconnect Access and is ready to go where
ever you are. Once your vehicle is registered
for Uconnect Access, you can purchase a 3G
Wi-Fi Hotspot subscription at the Uconnect
Store. After you've made your purchase, turn
on your signal and connect your passengers’
devices. It's never been easier to bring your
home or office with you.
WARNING!
NEVER use the 3G Wi-Fi Hotspot when
you are driving the vehicle. As the driver,
you should only use the 3G Wi-Fi Hotspot
when the vehicle is parked in a safe loca-
tion. Failure to do so may result in an
accident involving serious injury or death.

systems that need your attention. For further
