UCONNECT PHONE — IF
EQUIPPED
Uconnect Phone is a voice-activated, hands-
free, in-vehicle communications system.
Uconnect Phone allows you to dial a phone
number with your mobile phone using simple
voice commands (e.g., “Call”…“Mike”…
“Work” or “Dial”…“151-1234-5555”). Your mo-
bile phone’s audio is transmitted through your
vehicle’s audio system; the system will auto-
matically mute your radio when using the
Uconnect Phone.
NOTE:
The Uconnect Phone requires a mobile
phone equipped with the Bluetooth “Hands-
Free Profile”, Version 0.96 or higher. See the
Uconnect website for supported phones.

Uconnect Phone allows you to transfer calls
between the system and your mobile phone as
you enter or exit your vehicle and enables you
to mute the system’s microphone for private
conversation.The Uconnect Phone is driven through your
Bluetooth “Hands-Free Profile” mobile phone.
Uconnect features Bluetooth technology - the
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 many lan-
guages.
WARNING!
Any voice commanded system should be
used only in safe driving conditions following
all applicable laws, including laws regarding
phone use. Your attention should be focused
on safely operating the vehicle. Failure to do
so may result in a collision causing serious
injury or death.Uconnect Phone Button
The radio or steering wheel con-
trols (if equipped) will contain the
two control buttons (Uconnect
Phone
button and Voice Com-
mandbutton) that will enable
you to access the system. When you push the
button you will hear the word Uconnect followed
by a BEEP. The beep is your signal to give a
command.
Voice Command Button
Actual button location may vary
with the radio. The individual but-
tons are described in the “Opera-
tion” 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
67

tomer service line. Some services require im-
mediate 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 Command
button and say the sequence you wish to
enter, followed by the word “Send.” For ex-
ample, if required to enter your PIN followed
with a pound, (3746#),youcanpush the
Voice Command
button and say, “3746#
Send.” Saying a number, or sequence of num-
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
The “Voice Command” button can be used
when you wish to skip part of a prompt and
issue your voice command immediately. For
example, if a prompt is asking “Would you like to
pair a phone, clear a...,” you could push the
Voice Command
button and say, “Pair a
Phone” to select that option without having to
listen to the rest of the voice prompt.Turning Confirmation Prompts ON/OFF
Turning confirmation prompts off will stop the
system from confirming your choices (e.g., the
Uconnect Phone will not repeat a phone num-
ber before you dial it).
1. Push the Phone
button to begin.
2. After the “Ready” prompt and the following
beep, say one of the following:
•“Setup Confirmation Prompts On”
•“Setup Confirmation Prompts Off”
Phone And Network Status Indicators
If available on the radio and/or on a premium
display such as the instrument panel cluster,
and supported by your mobile phone, the
Uconnect Phone will provide notification to in-
form you of your phone and network status
when you are attempting to make a phone call
using Uconnect Phone. The status is given for
network signal strength, phone battery strength,
etc.

val previously selected.
If the lever is pulled while in the off position, the
wipers will operate for two wipe cycles, then turn
off.

avoid sudden icing of the windshield during
freezing weather, warm the windshield with
the defroster before and during windshield
washer use.
