Uconnect DODGE JOURNEY 2012 1.G Workshop Manual

You can also send stored mobile phonebook entries as
tones for fast and easy access to voice mail and pager
entries. For example, if you previously created a Phone-
book entry with First and/or Last Name as “Voicemail
Password”, then if you press the
button and say
“Send Voicemail Password” the Uconnect™ Phone will
then send the corresponding phone number associated
with the phonebook entry, as tones over the phone.
NOTE:
•The first number encountered for that contact will be
sent. All other numbers entered for that contact will be
ignored.
•You may not hear all of the tones due to mobile phone
network configurations. This is normal.
•Some paging and voice mail systems have system time
out settings that are too short and may not allow the
use of this feature.
•Pauses, wait or other characters that are supported by
some phones are not supported over Bluetooth.
These additional symbols will be ignored in the dial-
ing a numbered sequence.

option without having to listen to the rest of the voice
prompt.

Phone And Network Status Indicators
Uconnect™ Phone will provide notification to inform
you of your phone and network status when you are
attempting to make a phone call using Uconnect™
Phone. The status is given for network signal strength
and phone battery strength.
Dialing Using The Mobile Phone Keypad
You can dial a phone number with your mobile phone
keypad and still use the Uconnect™ Phone (while dialing
via the mobile phone keypad, the user must exercise
caution and take precautionary safety measures). By
dialing a number with your paired Bluetoothmobile
phone, the audio will be played through your vehicle’s audio system. The Uconnect™ Phone will work the same
as if you dial the number using voice command.
NOTE:
Certain brands of mobile phones do not send the
dial ring to the Uconnect™ Phone to play it on the vehicle
audio system, so you will not hear it. Under this situa-
tion, after successfully dialing a number the user 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.
Mute/Un-Mute (Mute OFF)
When you mute the Uconnect™ Phone, you will still be
able to hear the conversation coming from the other
party, but the other party will not be able to hear you. In
order to mute the Uconnect™ Phone simply touch the
Mute button on the Phone main screen.
