Working With Automated Systems
This method is used in instances where one generally has
to push numbers on the mobile phone keypad while
navigating through an automated telephone system.
You can use your Uconnect Phone to access a voice mail
system or an automated service, such as a paging service
or automated customer service line. Some services re-
quire immediate response selection. In some instances,
that may be too quick for use of the Uconnect Phone.
When calling a number with your Uconnect Phone that
normally requires you to enter in a touch-tone sequence
on your mobile phone keypad, you can utilize the
touchscreen or push the Voice Command
button and
say the word “Send” then the sequence you wish to
enter. For example, if required to enter your PIN
followed with a pound, (3746#),youcanpush the
Voice Command
button and say, “Send3746#.”
Saying “Send” followed by a number, or sequence of numbers, is also to be used for navigating through an
automated customer service center menu structure,
and to leave a number on a pager.
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 and/or Last Name as “Voice Password,” then
if you push the Voice Command
button and say
“Send Voicemail Password,” the Uconnect Phone will
then send the corresponding phone number associ-
ated 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.
