Safe Usage Of The Uconnect System
Read all instructions in this manual carefully
before using your system to ensure proper
usage.
The Uconnect system is a sophisticated elec -
tronic device. Do not let young children use
the system.
Permanent hearing loss may occur if you play
your music or the system at loud volumes.
Exercise caution when setting the volume on
the system.

Exposure To Radio Frequency Radiation
The internal wireless radio operates within
guidelines found in radio frequency safety
standards and recommendations, which reflect
the consensus of the scientific community. The
radio manufacturer believes the internal
wireless radio is safe for use by consumers. The
level of energy emitted is far less than the
electromagnetic energy emitted by wireless
devices such as mobile phones. However, the
use of wireless radios may be restricted in some
situations or environments, such as aboard
airplanes. If you are unsure of restrictions, you
are encouraged to ask for authorization before
turning on the wireless radio.
WARNING!
ALWAYS drive safely with your hands on the
steering wheel. You have full responsibility
and assume all risks related to the use of the
Uconnect features and applications in this
vehicle. Only use Uconnect when it is safe to

Uconnect Phone Button
The radio or steering wheel controls (if
equipped) contain the two control buttons
(Uconnect Phone button and Voice
Command button) that enables you to
access the system. When you push the button
you hear the word Uconnect followed by a BEEP.
The beep is your signal to give a command.
NOTE:
The driver side upper windshield trim contains
the microphone for the Uconnect Phone.
Voice Command Button
Actual button location may vary with the radio.
The individual buttons are described in the
“Operation” section. The Uconnect Phone can be used with any
Hands-Free Profile certified Bluetooth® mobile
phone. See the Uconnect website for supported
phones. Refer to your mobile service provider or
the phone manufacturer for details.
The Uconnect Phone is fully integrated with the
vehicle's audio system. The volume of the
Uconnect Phone can be adjusted either from
the radio volume control knob or from the
steering wheel radio control (right switch), if
equipped.
The Uconnect display will be used for visual
prompts from the Uconnect Phone such as
“CELL” or caller ID on certain radios.
Operation
Voice commands can be used to operate the
Uconnect Phone and to navigate through the
Uconnect Phone menu structure. Voice
commands are required after most Uconnect
Phone prompts. You will be prompted for a
specific command and then guided through the
available options.
Prior to giving a voice command, wait for the
beep, which follows the “Ready” prompt or
another prompt.
For certain operations, compound
commands can be used. For example,
instead of saying “Setup” and then “Phone
Pairing,” the following compound command
can be said: “Setup Phone Pairing.”
For each feature explanation in this section,
only the compound form of the voice
command is given. You can also break the
commands into parts and say each part of
the command when you are asked for it. For
example, you can use the compound form
voice command “Phonebook New Entry,” or
you can break the compound form command
into two voice commands: “Phonebook” and
“New Entry.” Please remember, the Uconnect
Phone works best when you talk in a normal
conversational tone, as if speaking to
someone sitting a few feet/meters away from
you.
Help Command
If you need assistance at any prompt, or if you
want to know your options at any prompt, say
“Help” following the beep. The Uconnect Phone
will play all the options at any prompt if you ask
for help.
WARNING!
Any voice commanded system should be
used only in safe driving conditions following
all applicable laws. Your attention should be
focused on safely operating the vehicle.
Failure to do so may result in a collision
causing serious injury or death.

Pair (Link) Uconnect Phone To A Mobile
Phone
To begin using your Uconnect Phone, you must
pair your compatible Bluetooth®-enabled

Manual. The Uconnect website may also
provide detailed instructions for pairing.
The following are general phone to Uconnect
Phone pairing instructions:
Push the Phone button to begin.
After the “Ready” prompt and the following
beep, say “Setup Phone Pairing.”
When prompted, after the beep, say “Pair a
Phone” and follow the audible prompts.
You will be asked to say a four-digit Personal
Identification Number (PIN), which you will
later need to enter into your mobile phone.
You can enter any four-digit PIN. You will not
need to remember this PIN after the initial
pairing process.
For identification purposes, you will be
prompted to give the Uconnect Phone a
name for your mobile phone. Each mobile
phone that is paired should be given a unique
phone name.
You will then be asked to give your mobile
phone a priority level between one and
seven, with one being the highest priority.
You can pair up to seven mobile phones to
your Uconnect Phone. However, at any given
time, only one mobile phone can be in use,
connected to your Uconnect System. The
priority allows the Uconnect Phone to know
which mobile phone to use if multiple mobile
phones are in the vehicle at the same time.
For example, if priority three and priority five
phones are present in the vehicle, the
Uconnect Phone will use the priority three
mobile phone when you make a call. You can select to use a lower priority mobile phone at
any time (refer to “Advanced Phone Connec
-
tivity” in this section).
NOTE:
Software updates on your phone or the
Uconnect system may interfere with the
Bluetooth® connection. If this happens, simply
repeat the pairing process. However, first, make
sure to delete the device from the list of phones
on your Uconnect system. Next, be sure to
remove Uconnect from the list of devices in your
phone’s Bluetooth® settings.
