Working with Automated Systems
This method is designed to be used in instances where
one generally has to press numbers on the cellular phone
keypad while navigating through an automated tele-
phone system.
You can use your UConnect™ system to access a voice-
mail system or an automated service, such as, paging
service or automated customer service. Some services
require immediate response selection, in some instances,
that may be too quick for use of UConnect™ system.
When calling a number with your UConnect™ system
that normally requires you to enter in a touch-tone
sequence on your cellular phone keypad, you can push
the “Voice Recognition” button and say the sequence you
wish to enter followed by the word\4Send.\4For example,
if required to enter your pin number followed with a
pound3746#,youcanpressthe“Voice Recognition”
button and say\43746#Send.\4Saying a number, orsequence of numbers, followed by\4Send\4is also to be
used to navigate through an automated customer service
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 voicemail and pager
entries. To use this feature, dial the number you wish to
call and then press the “Voice Recognition” button and
say “Send.” The system will prompt you to enter the
name or number, say the name of the phonebook entry
you wish to send. The UConnect™ will then send the
corresponding phone number associated with the phone-
book entry as tones over the phone.
NOTE:
•You may not hear all of the tones due to cellular phone
network configurations, this is normal.
•Some paging and voicemail systems have system
timeout settings too short that may not allow the use
of this feature.

Barge In - Overriding Prompts

wish to skip part of a prompt and issue your voice
recognition command immediately. For example, if a
prompt is playing\4Would you like to pair a phone, clear
a\6,\4you could press the “Voice Recognition” button and
say\4Pair a Phone\4to 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\4Ready\4prompt and the following beep, say
\4Setup Confirmations.\4The UConnect™ system will
play the current confirmation prompt status and you
will be given the choice to change it.
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 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,
network signal strength, phone battery strength, etc.
Dialing Using the Cellular Phone Keypad
You can dial a phone number with your cellular phone
keypad and still use the UConnect™ system (while
dialing via the cell phone keypad, the user must exercise
caution and take precautionary safety measures). By
dialing a number with your paired Bluetooth™ cellular
phone, the audio will be played through your vehicle’s
audio system. The UConnect™ system will work the
same as if you dial the number using voice recognition.

tion can generally be re-established by switching the
phone off/on. Your cell phone is recommended to remain
in Bluetooth\4on\4mode.
