The UConnect™ system can be used with any Hands-
Free Profile certified Bluetooth™ cellular phone. See
www.chrysler.com/uconnect for supported phones. If
your cellular phone supports a different profile (e.g., Headset Profile), you may not be able to use any UCon-
nect™ features. Refer to your cellular service provider or
the phone manufacturer for details.
The UConnect™ system is fully integrated with the
vehicle’s audio system. The volume of the UConnect™
system can be adjusted either from 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™ system such as  CELL  or caller ID on
certain radios.
Operations
Voice commands can be used to operate the UConnect™
system and to navigate through the UConnect™ menu
structure. Voice commands are required after most
UConnect™ system prompts. You will be prompted for a
specific command and then guided through the available
options.UConnect™ Switches UNDERSTANDING THE FEATURES OF YOUR VEHICLE 101

• You will then be asked to give your cellular phone a
priority level between 1 and 7, 1 being the highest
priority. You can pair up to seven cellular phones to
your UConnect™ system. However, at any given time,
only one cellular phone can be in use, connected to
your UConnect™ System. The priority allows the
UConnect™ system to know which cellular phone to
use if multiple cellular phones are in the vehicle at the
same time. For example, if priority 3 and priority 5
phones are present in the vehicle, the UConnect™
system will use the priority 3 cellular phone when you
make a call. You can select to use a lower priority
cellular phone at any time (refer to  Advanced Phone
Connectivity  ).
Call/Dial by Saying a Number
• Press the ’Phone’ button to begin.
• After the  Ready  prompt and the following beep, say
 Dial.  • System will prompt you to say the number you want
call.
• For example, you can say  234-567-8901. 
• The UConnect™ system will confirm the phone num-
ber and then dial. The number will appear in the
display of certain radios.
Call/Dial by Saying a Name
• Press the “Phone” button to begin.
• After the  Ready  prompt and the following beep, say
“Dial” or Call. 
• System will prompt you to say the name of the person
you want call.
• After the  Ready  prompt and the following beep, say
the name of the person you want to call. For example,104 UNDERSTANDING THE FEATURES OF YOUR VEHICLE

you can say  John Doe,  where John Doe is a previ-
ously stored name entry in the UConnect™ phone-
book. Refer to  Add Names to Your UConnect™
Phonebook,  to learn how to store a name in the
phonebook.
• The UConnect™ system will confirm the name and
then dial the corresponding phone number, which
may appear in the display of certain radios.
Add Names to Your UConnect™ Phonebook

when vehicle is not in motion.
• Press the “Phone” button to begin.
• After the  Ready  prompt and the following beep, say

long names helps the voice recognition and is recom-
mended. For example, say  Robert Smith  or  Robert 
instead of  Bob. 
• When prompted, enter the number designation (e.g.,
 Home,  Work,  Mobile,  or  Pager  ). This will allow
you to store multiple numbers for each phonebook
entry, if desired.
• When prompted, recite the phone number for the
phonebook entry that you are adding.
After you are finished adding an entry into the phone-
book, you will be given the opportunity to add more
phone numbers to the current entry or to return to the
main menu.
The UConnect™ system will allow you to enter up to 32
names in the phonebook with each name having up to UNDERSTANDING THE FEATURES OF YOUR VEHICLE 105

center menu structure and to leave a number on a pager.
Barge In - Overriding Prompts
The ’Voice Recognition’ button can be used when you
wish to skip part of a prompt and issue your voice
recognition command immediately. For example, if a
prompt is playing  Would you like to pair a phone, clear
a  ,  you could press the ’Voice Recognition’ 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™
system will not repeat a phone number before you dial
it).
• Press the ’Phone’ button to begin.
• After the  Ready  prompt and the following beep, say
 Setup Confirmations.  The UConnect™ system will
play the current confirmation prompt status and you

such as the instrument panel cluster, and supported by
your cell phone, the UConnect™ system will provide
notification to inform you of your phone and network
status when you are attempting to make a phone call
using UConnect™. The status is given for roaming net-
work signal strength, phone battery strength, etc. UNDERSTANDING THE FEATURES OF YOUR VEHICLE 113

When the driver selects Reverse the system scans for
objects behind the vehicle using four sensors located in
the rear bumper. Objects can be detected from up to 59
inches (150 cm). A warning display above the rear
window provides both visible and audible warnings
indicating the distance of the object. The warning display contains two sets of yellow and red
LEDs, one set to warn of obstacles behind the left rear of
the vehicle and the other set to warn of obstacles behind
the right rear of the vehicle. The driver can view the LEDs
either through the rear view mirror or by looking at the
display above the rear window.
The system dimly illuminates the two outer most yellow
LEDs when it is ON and detecting no obstacles. The
following chart shows the warning display operation
when the system is detecting an obstacle:

WARNING!• Drivers must be careful when backing up even
when using the Rear Park Sense System. Always
check carefully behind your vehicle, and be sure to
check for pedestrians, animals, other vehicles, ob-
structions, or blind spots before backing up. You are
responsible for the safety of your surroundings and
must continue to pay attention while backing up.
Failure to do so can result in serious injury or death.
• Before using the Rear Park Sense System, it is
strongly recommended that the ball mount and
hitch ball assembly be disconnected from the ve-
hicle when the vehicle is not used for towing.
Failure to do so can result in injury or damage to
vehicles or obstacles because the hitch ball will be
much closer to the obstacle than the rear fascia when
the warning display turns the red LEDs ON. Also,
the sensors could detect the ball mount and hitch
ball assembly, depending on its size and shape,
giving a false indication that an obstacle is behind
the vehicle. CAUTION!• To avoid vehicle damage the Rear Park Sense
System should only be used as a parking aid and
is unable to recognize every obstacle, including
small objects. Parking curbs might be temporarily
detected or not detected at all. Obstacles located
above or below the sensors will not be detected
when they are in close proximity to the rear of the
vehicle.
• To avoid vehicle damage the vehicle must be
driven slowly when using the Rear Park Sense
System to be able to stop in time when an obstacle
is detected. It is recommended that the driver look
over his/her shoulder when using the Rear Park
Sense System.162 UNDERSTANDING THE FEATURES OF YOUR VEHICLE
