Start Pairing Procedure On Mobile Phone
• Search for available devices on your Bluetooth®enabled mobile phone. This is
usually within Settings or Options under “Bluetooth.” See your mobile phone’s
manual for details.
• When your phone finds the system, select “Uconnect” as the paired device. You
may be prompted by your phone to download the phonebook. This is so you can
make calls by saying the name of your contact (PBAP-Phone Book Access Profile).
Complete The Pairing Procedure
• When prompted on the phone, verify with radio password shown on the Uconnect®
Screen.
• If your phone asks you to accept a connection request from Uconnect®, select
“Yes.” If available, check the box telling it not to ask again – that way your phone
will automatically connect each time you start the vehicle.
Select The Mobile Phone's Priority Level
• When the pairing process has successfully completed, the system will prompt you
to choose whether or not this is your favorite phone. Selecting “Yes” will make this
phone the highest priority. This phone will take precedence over other paired
phones within range. Only one phone can be paired at a time.
• You are now ready to make hands-free calls. Push the “Uconnect®Phone” button
on your steering wheel to begin.
Making A Phone Call
• Push the Uconnect®Phone button.
• After the BEEP, say “dial” then the number (or “call” then the name as listed in
your phone; see Phonebook).
NOTE:
You can also initiate a call by using the touchscreen on the Phone main screen.
Receiving A Call – Accept (And End)
• When an incoming call rings/is announced on Uconnect®, push the Phone button
.
• To end a call, push the Hang Up or Phone button.
Mute (Or Unmute) Microphone During Call

To transfer an on-going Uconnect®phone call:
• Press the “Transfer” button on the main Phone screen to transfer an on-going call
between the handset and the vehicle.

• “Dial 1 248 555 1212”
• “Redial”
Phonebook
Uconnect®radios automatically downloads your phonebook from your paired phone,
if this 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.
• Your phonebook can be browsed on your radio screen, but editing can only be done
on your phone. To browse, press the “Phone” button on the touchscreen, then the
“Phonebook” button on the touchscreen.
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
• Speaking complete names (i.e; Call John Doe vs. Call John) will result in greater
system accuracy.
• 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, push the
button on the steering wheel, wait for the beep and say your command.
Changing The Volume
• Start a dialogue by pushing 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, push the Uconnect®Phonebutton on the steering wheel and

• Shifting into or out of Rear E-Locker is possible with the vehicle completely
stopped; however, difficulty may occur due to the mating clutch teeth not being
properly aligned. Several attempts may be required for clutch teeth alignment and
shift completion to occur. The preferred method is for the vehicle to be rolling,
below 15 MPH (24 km/h), while including right and left steering maneuvers to
allow for the clutch teeth to align.
• The Rear E-Locker System must be disengaged prior to taking the vehicle out of
4X4 LOW range. If 4X4 LOW shift conditions/interlocks are not met, a message will
flash from the Electronic Vehicle Information Center (EVIC)/Driver Information
Display with instructions on how to complete the requested shift.
SELEC-TERRAIN™
• Selec-Terrain™ combines the capa-
bilities of the vehicle control systems,
along with driver input, to provide the
best performance for all terrains.
Rotate the mode control knob to select
the following Selec-Terrain™ positions:
•Auto— Fully automatic full time four-
wheel drive operation can be used on
and off road. Balances traction with
seamless steering feel to provide im-
proved handling and acceleration over
two-wheel drive vehicles.
•Snow— Tuning set for additional sta-
bility in inclement weather. Use on and
off road on loose traction surfaces such
as snow. When in SNOW mode (depending on certain operating conditions), the
transmission may use second gear (rather than first gear) during launches, to
minimize wheel slippage.
•Sport— This mode alters the transmission's automatic shift schedule for sportier
driving. Upshift speeds are increased to make full use of available engine power.
•Sand/Mud— Off road calibration for use on low traction surfaces such as mud,
sand, or wet grass. Driveline is maximized for traction. Some binding may be felt
on less forgiving surfaces. The electronic brake controls are set to limit traction
control management of throttle and wheel spin.
•Rock— Off-road calibration only available in 4WD LOW range. Traction based
tuning with improved steer-ability for use on high traction off-road surfaces.
Activate the Hill Descent Control for steep downhill control. Use for low speed
obstacles such as large rocks, deep ruts, etc.
NOTE:
SPORT mode is not available when 4X4 LOW is selected.

FREEING A STUCK VEHICLE
• If your vehicle becomes stuck in mud, sand or snow, it can often be moved by a
rocking motion. Turn your steering wheel right and left to clear the area around the
front wheels. Then shift back and forth between REVERSE and DRIVE. Using
minimal accelerator pedal pressure to maintain the rocking motion, without
spinning the wheels, is most effective.
NOTE:
If your vehicle is equipped with Traction Control or Electronic Stability Control (ESC),
turn the system OFF before attempting to “rock” the vehicle.
CAUTION!
• Racing the engine or spinning the wheels may lead to transmission overheating
and failure. Allow the engine to idle with the shift lever in NEUTRAL for at least
one minute after every five rocking-motion cycles. This will minimize overheat-
ing and reduce the risk of transmission failure during prolonged efforts to free
a stuck vehicle.
• When “rocking” a stuck vehicle by moving between REVERSE and DRIVE, do
not spin the wheels faster than 15 mph (24 km/h), or drivetrain damage may
result.
• Revving the engine or spinning the wheels too fast may lead to transmission
overheating and failure. It can also damage the tires. Do not spin the wheels
above 30 mph (48 km/h) while in gear (no transmission shifting occurring).
WARNING!
Fast spinning tires can be dangerous. Forces generated by excessive wheel speeds
may cause damage, or even failure, of the axle and tires. A tire could explode and
injure someone. Do not spin your vehicle's wheels faster than 30 mph (48 km/h)
or for longer than 30 seconds continuously without stopping when you are stuck
and do not let anyone near a spinning wheel, no matter what the speed.
