global standard that enables different electronic
devices to connect to each other without wires or a
docking station. Ensure you phone is turned on with
Bluetooth® active and has been paired to the
Uconnect system. Up to 10 mobile phones or audio
devices are allowed to be linked to the system. Only

device can be used with the system at a time.

Phone Button
The Phone button on your steering wheel is
used to get into the Phone Mode and make calls,
show recent, incoming or outgoing calls, view
phonebook, etc. When you push the button you will
hear a BEEP. The BEEP is your signal to give a
command.
Voice Command Button
The Voice Command button on your steering
wheel is only used for “barge in” and when you are
already in a call or want to make another call.
The button on your steering wheel is also used to
access the Voice Commands for the Uconnect
Voice Command features if your vehicle is
equipped.
Phone Operation
OPERATION
Voice commands can be used to operate the
Uconnect Phone and to navigate its menu
structure. Voice commands are required after
most Uconnect Phone prompts. There are two
general methods for how Voice Command works:

1. Say compound commands like “Call John
Smith mobile”.

2. Say the individual commands and allow the system to guide you to complete the task.
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.
