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.
Keep drinks, rain and other sources of mois -
ture away from the system. Besides damage
to the system, moisture can cause electric
shocks as with any electronic device. NOTE:
Many features of this system are speed
dependent. For your own safety, it is not
possible to use some of the touchscreen
features while the vehicle is in motion.
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
do so. Failure to do so may result in an
accident involving serious injury or death.

global standard that enables different
electronic devices to connect to each other
without wires or a docking station, so Uconnect
Phone works no matter where you stow your
mobile phone (be it your purse, pocket, or
briefcase), as long as your phone is turned on
and has been paired to the vehicle's Uconnect
Phone. The Uconnect Phone allows up to seven
mobile phones to be linked to the system. Only
one linked (or paired) mobile phone can be
used with the system at a time. The system is
available in English, Spanish, or French
languages.
WARNING!
ALWAYS drive safely with your hands on the
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
do so. Failure to do so may result in an
accident involving serious injury or death.

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.

Mexico). The number dialed may not be appli -
cable with the available mobile service and
area.
If supported, this number may be program -
mable on some systems. To do this, push the
Phone button and say “Setup,” followed
by “Emergency.”
The Uconnect Phone does slightly lower your
chances of successfully making a phone call. Roadside Assistance/Towing Assistance
If you need roadside assistance:
Push the Phone button to begin.
After the “Ready” prompt and the following
beep, say “Towing Assistance”.
NOTE:
You should program the desired Towing
Assistance phone number using the Voice
Command system. To do this, push the Phone
button and say “Setup,” followed by “Towing
Assistance.” When prompted say
1-800-521-2779 for U.S., 1-800-363-4869 for
Canada, 55-14-3454 for Mexico City and
1-800-712-3040 for outside Mexico City in
Mexico.
Paging
To learn how to page, refer to “Working 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 Automated Systems.” Working With Automated Systems
This method is used in instances where one
generally has to press 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 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 requires you to enter in a
touch-tone sequence on your mobile phone
keypad, you can push the Voice Recognition
button and say the sequence you wish to
enter, followed by the word “Send.” For
example, if required to enter your PIN followed
with a pound, (3 7 4 6 #), you can push the
Voice Recognition button and say, “3 7 4 6 #
Send.” Saying a number, or sequence of
numbers, followed by “Send,” is also to be used
for navigating through an automated customer
service center menu structure, and to leave a
number on a pager.
WARNING!
To use your Uconnect Phone System in an
emergency, your mobile phone must be:
Turned on.
Paired to the Uconnect System.

Disc Formats
The DVD player is capable of playing the
following types of discs:
DVD-Video discs (MPEG-2 video compres -
sion) (see notes about DVD Region Codes)
DVD-Audio discs (2 channel audio output
only)
Audio Compact Discs (CDs)
CD Data discs with MP3 and WMA
compressed audio format files
Video CDs (MPEG-1 video compression)
DVD Region Codes
The DVD player and many DVD Discs are coded
by geographic region. These region codes must
match in order for the disc to play. If the region
code for the DVD does not match the region
code for the player, the disc will stop playing
and a warning will be displayed.
DVD Audio Support
When a DVD-Audio disc is inserted in the DVD
player, the DVD-Audio title on the disc is played
by default (most DVD-Audio discs also have a
Video title, but the Video title is ignored). All
multi-channel program material is automatically mixed down to two channels, which may result
in a lowered apparent volume level. If you
increase the volume level to account for this
change in level, remember to lower the volume
before changing the disc or to another mode.
Recorded Discs
The DVD player will play CD-R and CD-RW discs
recorded in CD-Audio or Video-CD format, or as
a CD-ROM containing MP3, WMA. The player will
also play DVD-Video content recorded to a
DVD-R or DVD-RW disc. DVD-ROM discs (either
pressed or recorded) are not supported.
If you record a disc using a personal computer,
there may be cases where the DVD player may
not be able to play some or the entire disc, even
if it is recorded in a compatible format and is
playable on other players. To help avoid
playback problems, use the following guidelines
when recording discs.
Open sessions are ignored. Only sessions
that are closed are playable.
For multi-session CDs that contain only
multiple CD-Audio sessions, the player will
renumber the tracks so each track number is
unique.
For CD Data (or CD-ROM) discs, always use
the ISO-9660 (Level 1 or Level 2), Joliet, or
Romeo format. Other formats (such as HFS,
or others) are not supported.
The player recognizes a maximum of
512 files and 99 folders per CD-R and
CD-RW disc.
Mixed media recordable DVD formats will
only play the Video_TS portion of the disc.
If you are still having trouble writing a disc that
is playable in the DVD player, check with the
disc recording software publisher for more
information about burning playable discs.
The recommended method for labeling
recordable discs (CD-R, CD-RW, and DVD-R) is
with a permanent marker. Do not use adhesive
labels as they may separate from the disc,
become stuck, and cause permanent damage
to the DVD player.
