volume may be controlled using the radio or portable device.
• To route the audio cable out of the center console, use the access cut out in the
front of the console.

If using a Bluetooth®- equipped device, you may also be able to stream music to your
vehicle's sound system. Your connected device must be Bluetooth-compatible, and
paired with your system (see Uconnect®Phone for pairing instructions).

manual for details.

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.

• 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
