Under certain conditions, the mobile phone
being on in your vehicle can cause erratic or
noisy performance from your radio. This condi -
tion may be lessened or eliminated by relo -
cating the mobile phone antenna. This
condition is not harmful to the radio. If your
radio performance does not satisfactorily
“clear” by the repositioning of the antenna, it is
recommended that the radio volume be turned
down or off during mobile phone operation
when not using Uconnect (if equipped).
