Phone and Network Status IndicatorsIf available on the radio and/or on a premium display
such as the instrument panel cluster, and supported by

phone will provide
notification to inform you of your phone and network
status when you are attempting to make a phone call
using uconnectt phone. The status is given for roaming,

audio system. The uconnectt phone will work the same
as if you dial the number using voice recognition. NOTE:

the dial ring to the uconnectt phone to play it on the
vehicle audio system, so you will not hear it. Under this

may feel that the call did not go through even though the
call is in progress. Once your call is answered, you will
hear the audio.

this control to regulate the amount of
air forced through the system in any
mode you select. The blower speed
increases as you move the control
clockwise from the off position.
NOTE: For vehicles equipped with Remote Start, the
climate controls will not function during Remote Start
operation if the blower control is left in the “O” (Off)
position.
Temperature Control
Use this control to regulate the tem-
perature of the air inside the passenger
compartment. Rotating the knob coun-
terclockwise, from top center into the
blue area indicates cooler tempera-
tures. Rotating the knob clockwise,
into the red area, indicates warmer
temperatures.
NOTE: If your air conditioning performance seems
lower than expected, check the front of the A/C con-
denser (located in front of the radiator), for an accumu-
lation of dirt or insects. Clean with a gentle water spray
from behind the radiator and through the condenser.
Fabric front fascia protectors may reduce airflow to the
condenser, reducing air conditioning performance. 306 UNDERSTANDING YOUR INSTRUMENT PANEL
