UCONNECT PHONE — IF EQUIPPED
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”“Mike” 
“Work” or “Dial” “248-555-1212”). Your mobile phone’s
audio is transmitted through your vehicle’s audio sys-
tem; the system will automatically mute your radio when
using the Uconnect Phone.
NOTE: The Uconnect Phone requires a mobile phone
equipped with the Bluetooth “Hands-Free Profile,” Ver-
sion 0.96 or higher. See the Uconnect website for sup-
ported phones. For Uconnect customer support:

Uconnect Phone allows you to transfer calls between the
system and your mobile phone as you enter or exit your
vehicle and enables you to mute the system’s microphone
for private conversation.
The Uconnect Phone is driven through your Bluetooth
“Hands-Free Profile” mobile phone. Uconnect features
Bluetooth technology - the global standard that enables
different 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 allows up to seven
mobile phones to be linked to the system. Only one

“Operation” section.
The Uconnect Phone can be used with any Hands-Free
Profile certified Bluetooth mobile phone. See the
Uconnect website for supported phones. Refer to your
mobile 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 (right switch), 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.Operation
Voice commands can be used to operate the Uconnect
Phone and to navigate through the Uconnect Phone
menu structure. Voice commands are required after most
Uconnect Phone prompts. You will be prompted for a
specific command and then guided through the available
options.
• Prior to giving a voice command, one must wait for the
beep, which follows the “Ready” prompt or another
prompt.
• For certain operations, compound commands can be
used. For example, instead of saying “Setup” and then
“Phone Pairing,” the following compound command
can be said: “Setup Phone Pairing.”
• For each feature explanation in this section, only the
compound form of the voice command is given. You
can also break the commands into parts and say each

example, you can use the compound form voice com-
mand “Phonebook New Entry,” or you can break the
compound form command into two voice commands:
“Phonebook” and “New Entry.” Please remember, the
Uconnect Phone works best when you talk in a normal
conversational tone, as if speaking to someone sitting a
few feet/meters away from you.

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 keypad, 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 vehicles
audio system. The Uconnect Phone will work the same as
if you dial the number using Voice Command.
NOTE: Certain brands of mobile phones do not send the
dial ring to the Uconnect Phone to play it on the vehicle
audio system, so you will not hear it. Under this situa-
tion, after successfully dialing a number the user may feel
that the call did not go through even though the call is in
progress. Once your call is answered, you will hear the
audio.
