Uconnect™ Phone — IF EQUIPPED
NOTE:
For Uconnect™ Phone with Navigation or
Multimedia radio, refer to the Navigation or
Multimedia radio’s User’s Manual (separate
booklet) Uconnect™ Phone section.
Uconnect™ Phone is a voice-activated, hands-
free, in-vehicle communications system.
Uconnect™ Phone allows you to dial a phone
number with your mobile phone* using simple
voice commands (e.g., “Call”“Jim”“Work” or
“Dial”“151-1234 -5555”). Your mobile phone’s
audio is transmitted through your vehicle’s au-
dio system; the system will automatically mute
your radio when using the Uconnect™ Phone.
Uconnect™ Phone allows you to transfer calls
between the Uconnect™ Phone and your mo-
bile phone as you enter or exit your vehicle and
enables you to mute the Uconnect™ Phone’s
microphone for private conversation. The Uconnect™ Phone is driven through your
Bluetooth
“Hands-Free profile” mobile phone.
Uconnect™ Phone features Bluetooth tech-
nology - the global standard that enables dif-
ferent electronic devices to connect to each
other without wires or a docking station, so
Uconnect™ Phone works no matter where you
stow your mobile phone (be it your purse,
pocket, or briefcase), as long as your phone is
turned on and has been paired to the vehicle’s
Uconnect™ Phone. The Uconnect™ Phone al-
lows up to seven mobile phones to be linked to
the system. Only one linked (or paired) mobile
phone can be used with the Uconnect™ Phone
at a time. The Uconnect™ Phone is available in
English, Dutch, French, German, Italian or
Spanish languages (as equipped).
WARNING!
Any voice commanded system should be
used only in safe driving conditions following
local laws and phone use. All attention should
be kept on the roadway ahead. Failure to do
so may result in a collision causing serious
injury or death. Uconnect™ Phone Button

trols (if equipped) will contain the
two control buttons (Uconnect™
Phone

word Uconnect™ followed by a BEEP. The
beep is your signal to give a command.
Voice Command Button Actual button location may vary
with radio. The individual buttons
are described in the “Operation”
section.
The Uconnect™ Phone can be used with
Hands-Free Profile certified Bluetooth mobile
phones. Some phones may not support all the
Uconnect™ Phone features. Refer to your mo-
bile service provider or the phone manufacturer
for details.
The Uconnect™ Phone is fully integrated with
the vehicle’s audio system. The volume of the
