Phonebook
• Uconnect® radios automatically downloads your phonebook from your paired phone, ifthis feature is supported by your phone. Entries are updated each time that the phone is
connected. If your phone book entries do not appear, check the settings on your phone.
Some phones require you to enable this feature manually.

• Favorite phonebook entries can be saved as Favorites for quicker access. Favorites are shown at the top of your main phone screen.
Voice Command Tips
• Using complete names (i.e; Call John Doe vs. Call John) will result in greater systemaccuracy.
• You can “chain” commands together for faster results. Say “Call John Doe, mobile”, for example.
• If you are listening to available voice command options, you do not have to listen to the entire list. When you hear the command that you need, press the
button on the
steering wheel, wait for the beep and say your command.
Changing The Volume
• Start a dialogue by pressing the Phone button, then say a command for example
- "Help".
• Use the radio ON/OFF VOLUME rotary knob to adjust the volume to a comfortable level while the Uconnect® system is speaking. Please note the volume setting for Uconnect®
is different than the audio system.
NOTE:
To access help, press the Uconnect® Phone
button on the steering wheel and say

ALL-WHEEL DRIVE OPERATION
Single-Speed Operating Instructions/Precautions
This system contains a single-speed (HI range only) transfer case, which provides conve-
nient full-time all-wheel drive. No driver interaction is required. The Brake Traction Control
(BTC) System, which combines standard ABS and Traction Control, provides resistance to
any wheel that is slipping to allow additional torque transfer to wheels with traction.
NOTE:
This system is not appropriate for conditions where AWD LOW range is recommended. Refer to
“Off-Road Driving Tips” in “Starting and Operating” on the DVD for further information.
Electronically Shifted Transfer Case (Three-Position Switch)
This is an electronic shift transfer case and is operated by the AWD Control Switch (Transfer
Case Switch), which is located on the center console.
This electronically shifted transfer case pro-
vides three mode positions:
• All-wheel drive automatic range (AWDAUTO)
• All-wheel drive low range (LOW RANGE)
• Neutral (NEUTRAL)
When additional traction is required, the LOW
RANGE position can be used to lock the front
and rear driveshafts together forcing the front
and rear wheels to rotate at the same speed.
The LOW RANGE position are designed for
loose, slippery road surfaces only. Driving in
the LOW RANGE positions on dry hard sur-
faced roads may cause increased tire wear
and damage to the driveline components.
When operating your vehicle in LOW RANGE, the engine speed is approximately three times
that of the AWD HI position at a given road speed. Take care not to overspeed the engine and
do not exceed 25 mph (40 km/h).
NOTE:
The “SERV AWD Warning Light” monitors the electronic shift all-wheel drive system. If this
light remains on after engine start up or illuminates during driving, it means that the
all-wheel drive system is not functioning properly and that service is required.

2. Drive the rear wheels onto the tow dolly.
3. Firmly apply the parking brake. Shift the transmission into PARK.
4. Turn the ignition switch to the OFF position.
5. Properly secure the rear wheels to the dolly, following the dolly manufacturer’s instruc- tions.
6. Install a suitable clamping device, designed for towing, to secure the front wheels in the straight position.
CAUTION!
Towing with the rear wheels on the ground will cause severe transmission damage.
Damage from improper towing is not covered under the New Vehicle Limited Warranty.

All-Wheel Drive Models (Single-Speed Transfer Case)
Recreational towing is not allowed.This model does not have a NEUTRAL position in the
transfer case.
NOTE:
This vehicle may be towed on a flatbed or vehicle trailer provided all four wheels are OFF the
ground.
CAUTION!
Towing this vehicle in violation of the above requirements can cause severe transmis-
sion and/or transfer case damage. Damage from improper towing is not covered under
the New Vehicle Limited Warranty.
All-Wheel Drive Models (Two-Speed Transfer Case)
The transfer case must be shifted into NEUTRAL (N) and the transmission must be in PARK
for recreational towing. The NEUTRAL (N) selection button is at the center of the transfer
case selector switches. Shifts into transfer case NEUTRAL (N) can take place from any
other transfer case mode.
CAUTION!
• DO NOT dolly tow any All-Wheel Drive (AWD) vehicle. Internal damage to the trans- mission or transfer case will occur if a dolly is used when recreational towing.
• Tow only in the forward direction. Towing this vehicle backwards can cause severe
damage to the transfer case.
• The transmission must be in PARK for recreational towing.
• Before recreational towing, perform the procedure outlined under “Shifting Into
NEUTRAL(N)” to be certain that the transfer case is fully in NEUTRAL (N). Otherwise,
internal damage will result.
• Failure to follow these procedures can cause severe transmission and/or transfer
case damage. Damage from improper towing is not covered under the New Vehicle
Limited Warranty.
• Do not use a bumper-mounted clamp-on tow bar on your vehicle. The bumper face
bar will be damaged.
