A WORD ABOUT YOUR KEYS
Your vehicle uses a keyless ignition system.
This system consists of a Key Fob with Remote
Keyless Entry (RKE) transmitter and a Wireless
Ignition Node (WIN) with integral ignition switch.
You can insert the Key Fob into the ignition
switch with either side up.
Keyless Enter-N-Go™ Feature
If this vehicle is equipped with the Keyless
Enter-N-Go™ feature, refer to “Starting Proce-
dures” in “Starting And Operating” for further
information.
Wireless Ignition Node (WIN)The Wireless Ignition Node (WIN) operates
similar to an ignition switch. It has four operating
positions, three of which are detented and one
spring-loaded. The detented positions are OFF,
ACC, and ON/RUN. The START position is a
spring-loaded momentary contact position.
When released from the START position, the
switch automatically returns to the detented
ON/RUN position.NOTE:
With the Keyless Enter-N-Go™ feature, the
Electronic Vehicle Information Center (EVIC)
will display the ignition switch position
(OFF/ACC/RUN). Refer to “Electronic Ve-
hicle Information Center (EVIC)” in “Under-
standing Your Instrument Panel” for further
information.
Key FobThe Key Fob operates the ignition switch. Insert
the square end of the key fob into the ignition
switch located on the instrument panel and
rotate to the desired position. It also contains
the Remote Keyless Entry (RKE) transmitter
and an emergency key, which stores in the rear
of the Key Fob.
The emergency key allows for entry into the
vehicle on the driver’s side should the battery in
the vehicle or the RKE transmitter go dead. The
emergency key is also for locking the glove box.
You can keep the emergency key with you when
valet parking.
NOTE:
Entering a vehicle using the emergency key
with the security alarm armed, will result in
the alarm sounding. Insert the Key Fob
(even if the Key Fob battery is dead) into the
ignition switch to disarm security alarm.
To remove the emergency key, slide the me-
chanical latch at the top of the Key Fob side-
ways with your thumb and then pull the key out
with your other hand.

NOTE:You can insert the double-sided emergency
key into the lock cylinders with either side up.
Removing Key Fob From IgnitionPlace the shift lever in PARK. Turn the Key Fob to
the OFF position and then remove the Key Fob.
With the Keyless Enter-N-Go™ feature, the
EVIC will display the ignition switch position
“OFF/ACC/RUN”. Refer to “Electronic Vehicle
Information Center (EVIC)” in “Understanding
Your Instrument Panel” for further information.NOTE:
•
If you try to remove the Key Fob before
you place the shift lever in PARK, it may
become trapped temporarily in the igni-
tion switch. If this occurs, rotate the key
to the right slightly, then remove the Key
Fob as described. If a malfunction occurs,
the system will trap the key in the ignition
switch to warn you that this safety feature
is inoperable. The engine can be started
and stopped, but the Key Fob cannot be
removed until you obtain service.
•
The power window switches, radio, power
sunroof (if equipped), and power outlets will
remain active for up to 10 minutes after the
ignition switch is turned to the OFF position.
Opening either front door will cancel this
feature. The time for this feature is program-
mable. Refer to “Electronic Vehicle Informa-
tion Center (EVIC)/Personal Settings
(Customer-Programmable Features)” in “Un-
derstanding Your Instrument Panel” for fur-
ther information.
CAUTION!
• If your vehicle battery becomes low or
dead, your Key Fob will become locked in
the ignition.
• Do not attempt to remove the Key Fob
while in this condition, damage could occur
to the Key Fob or ignition module. Only
remove the emergency key for locking and
unlocking the doors.
• Leave the Key Fob in the ignition and
either:
• Jump Start the vehicle.
• Charge the battery.
WARNING!
•When leaving the vehicle, always remove
the Key Fob from the vehicle and lock your
vehicle.

The Uconnect® Phone is driven through your
Bluetooth® “Hands-Free profile” mobile phone.
Uconnect® Phone features Bluetooth® technol-
ogy - the global standard that enables different
electronic devices to connect to each other with-
out wires or a docking station, so Uconnect®
Phone works no matter where you stow your
mobile phone (be it your purse, pocket, or brief-
case), as long as your phone is turned on and has
been paired to the vehicle’s Uconnect® Phone.
The Uconnect® Phone allows 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
all applicable laws. Your attention should be
focused on safely operating the vehicle. Fail-
ure to do so may result in a collision causing
serious injury or death.Uconnect® Phone Button
The radio or steering wheel con-
trols (if equipped) will contain the
two control buttons (Uconnect®
Phone
button and Voice Com-
mandbutton) that will enable
you to access the system. When you press the
button you will hear the word Uconnect® fol-
lowed 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
Uconnect® Phone can be adjusted either from
the radio volume control knob or from the
steering wheel radio control, if so equipped.
The radio display will be used for visual prompts
from the Uconnect® Phone such as CELL or
caller ID on certain radios.
Compatible Phones* The Uconnect® Phone requires a mobile
phone equipped with the Bluetooth® “Hands-
Free Profile”, version 1.0 or higher.
See
Uconnect® website for supported phones.
• www.UconnectPhone.com
To find the list of compatible phones navigate
through the following menus:
• Select model year for the vehicle
• Select type of the vehicle
• In the getting started tab, select compatible
phones

•For identification purposes, you will be
prompted to give the Uconnect® Phone a
name for your mobile phone. Each mobile
phone that is paired should be given a unique
phone name.
• You will then be asked to give your mobile
phone a priority level between 1 and 7, with 1
being the highest priority. You can pair up to
seven mobile phones to your Uconnect®
Phone. However, at any given time, only one
mobile phone can be in use, connected to
your Uconnect® System. The priority allows
the Uconnect® Phone to know which mobile
phone to use if multiple mobile phones are in
the vehicle at the same time. For example, if
priority 3 and priority 5 phones are present in
the vehicle, the Uconnect® Phone will use
the priority 3 mobile phone when you make a
call. You can select to use a lower priority
mobile phone at any time (refer to “Advanced
Phone Connectivity”).
Dial By Saying A Number
• Press the
button to begin.
• After the “Ready” prompt and the following
beep, say “Dial.” •
The system will prompt you to say the num-
ber you want to call.
• For example, you can say “151-1234-5555.”
• The Uconnect® Phone will confirm the phone
number and then dial. The number will ap-
pear in the display of certain radios.
Call By Saying A Name
• Press the
button to begin.

where John Doe is a previously stored name
entry in the Uconnect® Phonebook or down-
loaded phonebook. To learn how to store a
name in the phonebook , refer to “Add Names
to Your Uconnect® Phonebook”.
• The Uconnect® Phone will confirm the name
and then dial the corresponding phone num-
ber, which may appear in the display of
certain radios. Phonebook Download — Automatic
Phonebook Transfer From Mobile Phone
If equipped and specifically supported by your
phone, Uconnect® Phone automatically down-
loads names (text names) and number entries
from your mobile phone’s phonebook. Specific
Bluetooth® Phones with Phone Book Access
Profile may support this feature. See Uconnect®
website for supported phones.
•To call a name from downloaded (or
Uconnect®) Phonebook, follow the procedure
in “Call by Saying a Name” section.
•Automatic download and update, if supported,
begins as soon as the phone Bluetooth® wire-
less connection is made to the Uconnect®
Phone. For example, after you start the
vehicle.
•
Maximum of 1000 entries per phone will be
downloaded and updated every time a phone
is connected to 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 press the
button and say
the sequence you wish to enter followed by the
word “Send”. For example, if required to enter
your PIN followed with a hash, (3746#),you
can press the
button and say, “3746#
Send”. Saying a number, or sequence of num-
bers, followed by “Send”, is also to be used for
navigating through an automated customer ser-
vice center menu structure, and to leave a
number on a pager.
You can also send stored Uconnect® Phone-
book entries as tones for fast and easy access
to voice mail and pager entries. To use this
feature, dial the number you wish to call and
then press the
button and say “Send.” The
system will prompt you to enter the name or
number and say the name of the phonebook
entry you wish to send. The Uconnect® Phone
will then send the corresponding phone number
associated with the phonebook entry, as tones
over the phone. NOTE:
•
You may not hear all of the tones due to
mobile phone network configurations;
this is normal.
• Some paging and voice mail systems
have system time out settings that are too
short and may not allow the use of this
feature.
Barge In — Overriding Prompts
The “Voice Command” button can be used
when you wish to skip part of a prompt and
issue your voice command immediately. For
example, if a prompt is asking “Would you like to
pair a phone, clear a…,” you could press the
button and say, “Pair a Phone” to select
that option without having to listen to the rest of
the voice prompt.
Turning Confirmation Prompts On/Off
Turning confirmation prompts off will stop the
system from confirming your choices (e.g., the
Uconnect® Phone will not repeat a phone num-
ber before you dial it).
• Press the
button to begin. •
After the “Ready” prompt and the following
beep, say:
• “Setup Confirmations Prompts On”
• “Setup Confirmations Prompts Off”
Phone And Network Status Indicators
If available on the radio and/or on a premium
display such as the instrument panel cluster, and
supported by your mobile phone, the Uconnect®
Phone will provide notification to inform you of
your phone and network status when you are
attempting to make a phone call using Uconnect®
Phone. The status is given for network signal
strength, phone battery strength, etc.
Dialing Using The Mobile Phone Keypad
You can dial a phone number with your mobile
phone keypad and still use the Uconnect®
Phone (while dialing via the mobile phone key-
pad, the user must exercise caution and take
precautionary safety measures). By dialing a
number with your paired Bluetooth® mobile
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 Command.
