16 THINGS TO KNOW BEFORE STARTING YOUR VEHICLE

8. Do not lean against the door, as the supplemental side
curtain airbags and supplemental front seat mounted
side airbags will inflate forcefully into the space between
you and the door.
9. If the airbag system in this vehicle needs to be
modified to accommodate a disabled person, contact the
Customer Center. Phone numbers are provided in theIf
You Need Customer Assistance section.WARNING!
•Relying on the airbags alone could lead to more
severe injuries in a collision. The airbags work
with your seat belt to restrain you properly. In
some collisions, the airbags won’t deploy at all.
Always wear your seat belts even though you have
airbags.
•Being too close to the steering wheel or instrument
panel during airbag deployment could cause seri-
ous injury. Airbags need room to inflate. Sit back,
comfortably extending your arms to reach the
steering wheel or instrument panel.
•Supplemental side curtain airbags and supple-
mental front seat mounted side airbags also need
room to inflate. Do not lean against the door or
window. Sit upright in the center of the seat.

CAUTION!
•To avoid vehicle damage, only use the Rear
Backup Camera as a parking aid, as the camera is
unable to capture every obstacle or object in your
drive path.
•To avoid vehicle damage, drive slowly when back-
ing up a vehicle so that you can stop in time when
an obstacle comes into view. It is recommended
that the driver look frequently over their shoulder
when backing up a vehicle.

communications system. UConnect allows you to dial a
phone number with your cellular phone using simple
voice commands (e.g., Call”“Mike” ”Work orDial”
 “248-555-1212). Your cellular phone’s audio is trans-
mitted through your vehicle’s audio system; the system

system and your cellular phone as you enter or exit your
vehicle and enables you to mute the system’s microphone
for private conversation. The UConnect
phonebook enables you to store up to 32
names, with four numbers per name. Each language has
a separate 32-name phonebook accessible only in that
language. This system is driven through your Bluetooth 
“Hands-Free profile” cellular 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 works
no matter where you stow your cellular 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 system. The UConnect system allows up to
seven cellular phones to be linked to the system. Only
one linked (or paired) cellular phone can be used with the
system at a time. The system is available in English,
Spanish, or French languages.

Phone ButtonThe rearview mirror contains the microphone
for the system (depending on the type of
mirror and radio equipped), and either the
radio or the mirror has the two control buttons
(PHONE Button and VOICE RECOGNITION button)
that will enable you to access the system.
Voice Recognition Button Actual button location may vary with radio.
The individual buttons are described in the
“Operation” section.
The UConnect system can be used with any Hands-Free
Profile certified Bluetooth cellular phone. See the
UConnect website for supported phones. If your cellu-
lar phone supports a different profile (e.g., Headset
Profile) you may not be able to use any UConnect 
features. Refer to your cellular service provider or the
phone manufacturer for details. The UConnect
system is fully integrated with the vehi-
cle’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 CELLor caller ID on
certain radios.
Operation
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.
•Prior to giving a voice command, one must wait for
the beep, which follows the Readyprompt or another
prompt.

•For certain operations, compound commands can be
used. For example, instead of sayingSetupand then
Phone Pairing, the following compound command
can be said: Setup Phone Pairing.
•For each feature explanation in this section, only the
combined form of the voice command is given. You
can also break the commands into parts and say each
part of the command when you are asked for it. For
example, you can use the combined form voice com-
mandPhonebook New Entry, or you can break the
combined form command into two voice commands:
Phonebook andNew Entry. Please remember, the
UConnect system works best when you talk in a
normal conversational tone, as if speaking to someone
sitting a few feet/meters away from you.
Voice Command Tree
Refer to “Voice Tree” in this section.
Help Command
If you need assistance at any prompt, or if you want to
know your options at any prompt, say Helpfollowing
the beep. The UConnect system will play all the options
at any prompt if you ask for help.
To activate the UConnect system from idle, simply press
the PHONE button and follow the audible prompts for
directions. All UConnect system sessions begin with a
press of the PHONE button on the radio control head.
Cancel Command

you will be returned to the main menu. However, in a
few instances the system will take you back to the
previous menu.

To begin using your UConnect system, you must pair
your compatible Bluetooth enabled cellular phone.
96 UNDERSTANDING THE FEATURES OF YOUR VEHICLE

To complete the pairing process, you will need to refer-
ence your cellular phone Owner’s Manual. The
UConnectwebsite may also provide detailed instruc-
tions for pairing.
The following are general phone to UConnect system
pairing instructions:
•Press the PHONE button to begin.
•After the Readyprompt and the following beep, say
Setup Phone Pairing.
•When prompted, after the beep, say Pair a Phoneand
follow the audible prompts.
•You will be asked to say a four-digit Personal Identi-
fication Number (PIN), which you will later need to
enter into your cellular phone. You can enter any
four-digit PIN. You will not need to remember this PIN
after the initial pairing process.
•For identification purposes, you will be prompted to
give the UConnect system a name for your cellular
phone. Each cellular phone that is paired should be
given a unique phone name.
•You will then be asked to give your cellular phone a
priority level between 1 and 7, with 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 in this section).

hicle was purchased, the UConnect system limits the
user from dialing an invalid combination of numbers.
For example, in the U.S., 234-567-890 is nine digits
long, which is not a valid U.S. phone number - the
closest valid phone number has 10 digits.
