This system uses the RKE Key Fob
to start the engine conveniently
from outside the vehicle while still
maintaining security. The system
has a range of approximately 300 ft
(91 m). Obstructions between the
vehicle and RKE Key Fob may reduce this
range.NOTE:
•The vehicle must be equipped with an
automatic transmission to be equipped
with Remote Start.
•Obstructions between the vehicle and the
RKE Key Fob may reduce this range.
How To Use Remote StartAll of the following conditions must be met

the radio volume control knob or from the
steering wheel radio control (right switch), if so
equipped.
The radio display will be used for visual prompts
from the Uconnect Phone such as “CELL” or
caller ID on certain radios.
OperationVoice commands can be used to operate the
Uconnect Phone and to navigate through the
Uconnect Phone menu structure. Voice com-
mands are required after most Uconnect Phone
prompts. You will be prompted for a specific
command and then guided through the avail-
able options.
•Prior to giving a voice command, one must
wait for the beep, which follows the “Ready”
prompt or another prompt.
•For certain operations, compound com-
mands can be used. For example, instead of
saying “Setup” and then “Pair a Device,” the
following compound command can be said:
“Pair a Bluetooth Device.”
•For each feature explanation in this section,
only the compound form of the voice com-mand is given. You can also break the com-
mands 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.

will take you back to the previous menu.
Pair (Link) Uconnect Phone To A Mobile
Phone
To begin using your Uconnect Phone, you must
pair your compatible Bluetooth enabled mobile
phone.
To complete the pairing process, you will need
to reference your mobile phone Owner’s
Manual. The Uconnect website may also pro-
vide detailed instructions for pairing.

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 pro-
cess.
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).Dial By Saying A Number
•Push the Phone
button to begin.
•After the “Ready” prompt and the following
beep, say “Dial.”
•The system will prompt you to say the num-
ber you want to call.

bers, followed by “Send,” is also to be used for
navigating through an automated customer ser-
vice center menu structure, and to leave a
number on a pager.
You can also send stored Uconnect phonebook
entries as tones for fast and easy access to
voice mail and pager entries. To use this fea-
ture, dial the number you wish to call and then
push the Voice Command
button and say
“Send.” The system will prompt you to enter the
name or number and say the name of the
phonebook entry you wish to send. TheUconnect Phone will then send the correspond-
ing phone number associated with the phone-
book entry, as tones over the phone.
NOTE:
•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.
Barge In — Overriding Prompts
