WARNING!
Driving while distracted can result in loss of vehicle
control, accident and injury. It is strongly recom-
mended that you use extreme caution when using
any device or feature that may take your focus off the
road or your hands off the steering wheel. Your
primary responsibility is the safe operation of your
vehicle. We recommend against the use of any hand-
held device while driving, encourage the use of
voice-operated systems when possible and that you
become aware of applicable laws that may affect the
use of electronic devices while driving.
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 connected Bluetooth® mo-
bile 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 a
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.
