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 Keyless Ig-
nition Node (KIN).
Keyless Enter-N-Go Feature
This vehicle is equipped with the Key-
less Enter-N-Go feature, refer to
“Starting Procedure” in “Starting
And Operating” for further informa-
tion.
KEYLESS IGNITION NODE
(KIN)
This feature allows the driver to oper-
ate the ignition switch with the push
of a button, as long as the Remote
Keyless Entry (RKE) transmitter is in

Transmitter and receivers operate on
a carrier frequency of 433.92 MHz as
required by EEC regulations. These
devices must be certified to conform
to specific regulations in each indi-
vidual country. Two sets of regula-
tions are involved: ETS (European
Telecommunication Standard) 300–
220, which most countries use, and
German BZT federal regulation
225Z125, which is based on ETC
300–220 but has additional unique
requirements. Other defined require-
ments are noted in ANNEX VI of
COMMISSION DIRECTIVE 95/56/
EC. Operation is subject to the follow-
ing conditions:
 This device may not cause harmful
interference.
 This device must accept any inter- ference received, including interfer-
ence that may cause undesired op-
eration.
If your RKE transmitter fails to oper-
ate from a normal distance, check for
these two conditions: 1. A weak battery in the RKE trans-
mitter. The expected life of the battery
is a minimum of three years.
2. Closeness to a radio transmitter
such as a radio station tower, airport
transmitter, and some mobile or CB
radios.

ans, other objects that are impacted
may result in an Active Hood deploy-
ment.
Deployment Sensors And Controls
The Occupant Restraint Controller
(ORC) determines if deployment of
the actuators in a frontal impact is
required. Based on the impact sensors
signals, the ORC determines when to
deploy the actuators. The impact sen-
sors are located within the front bum-
per area.
The ORC monitors the readiness of
the electronic parts of the Active Hood
system whenever the ignition switch is
in the START or ON/RUN position. If
the key is in the LOCK position, in the
ACC position, or not in the ignition,
the Active Hood system is not on and
the Active Hood will not deploy.
The ORC contains a backup power
supply system that may deploy the
actuators even if the battery loses
power or it becomes disconnected
prior to deployment.
Service Active Hood System
If the ORC has deployed the Active
Hood, or if it detects a malfunction inany part of the system, it turns on the
Air Bag Warning Light and it will
display the “SERVICE ACTIVE
HOOD” message in the Electronic Ve-
hicle Information Center (EVIC), for
versions/markets, where provided. A
single chime will sound if the Air Bag
Warning Light comes on again after
initial startup. It also includes diag-
nostics that will illuminate the Air Bag
Warning Light if a malfunction is
noted that could affect the Active
Hood system. The diagnostics also re-
cord the nature of the malfunction. If
the Air Bag Warning Light is illumi-
nated, or if “SERVICE ACTIVE
HOOD” appears in the EVIC, see
your authorized dealer.
In the event of an Active Hood deploy-
ment, the vehicle should be serviced
by an authorized dealer. The hood
hinges must be serviced and the ac-
tuator assemblies replaced to restore
system functionality.
Following an Active Hood deploy-
ment, the hood position can be tem-
porarily reset by pushing down at the
rear edge over the hood hinges as the
internal pressure of each actuator isrelieved. The temporary hood reset
position is intended to improve for-
ward driving visibility over the hood
until the vehicle can be serviced. The
temporary hood reset position will
leave the hood approximately 5 mm
above the fender surface.
The front bumper assembly may af-
fect proper operation of the Active
Hood system. The front bumper com-
ponents should be inspected for dam-
age and replaced if necessary in the
event of a frontal impact, even if it
occurs at a low rate of speed.
NOTE:
After any Active Hood deployment,
the vehicle should be taken to an
authorized dealer immediately.

ACC position, or not in the ignition,
the air bag system is not on and the air
bags will not inflate.
The ORC contains a backup power
supply system that may deploy the air
bags even if the battery loses power or
it becomes disconnected prior to de-
ployment.Also, the ORC turns on the
Air Bag Warning Light in
the instrument panel for
approximately four to eight
seconds for a self-check when the ig-
nition is first turned on. After the self-
check, the Air Bag Warning Light will
turn off. If the ORC detects a mal-
function in any part of the system, it
turns on the Air Bag Warning Light,
either momentarily or continuously. A
single chime will sound if the light
comes on again after initial startup.
It also includes diagnostics that will
illuminate the instrument cluster Air
Bag Warning Light if a malfunction is
noted that could affect the air bag
system. The diagnostics also record
the nature of the malfunction.
WARNING!
Ignoring the Air Bag Warning Light
in your instrument panel could
mean you won't have the air bags to
protect you in a collision. If the light
does not come on as a bulb check
when the ignition is first turned on,
stays on after you start the vehicle,
or if it comes on as you drive, have
an authorized dealer service the air
bag system immediately.
Driver And Passenger Advanced
Front Air Bag Inflator Units
The Driver and Passenger Advanced
Front Air Bag Inflator Units are lo-
cated in the center of the steering
wheel and on the right side of the
instrument panel. When the ORC de-
tects a collision requiring the Ad-
vanced Front Air Bags, it signals the
inflator units. A large quantity of non-
toxic gas is generated to inflate the
Advanced Front Air Bags. Different
air bag inflation rates are possible,
based on the collision type and sever-
ity. The steering wheel hub trim cover
and the upper right side of the instru-
ment panel separate and fold out of the way as the air bags inflate to their
full size. The air bags fully inflate in
about 50 to 70 milliseconds. This is
about half of the time it takes to blink
your eyes. The air bags then quickly
deflate while helping to restrain the
driver and front passenger.
The Advanced Front Air Bag gas is
vented through the vent holes in the
sides of the air bag. In this way, the air
bags do not interfere with your con-
trol of the vehicle.
Supplemental Driver Side Knee
Air Bag Inflator Unit (for
versions/markets, where
provided)
The Supplemental Driver Side Knee
Air Bag unit is located in the instru-
ment panel trim beneath the steering
column. When the ORC detects a col-
lision requiring the air bag, it signals
the inflator units. A large quantity of
non-toxic gas is generated to inflate
the Supplemental Driver Side Knee
Air Bag. The trim cover separates and
folds out of the way allowing the air
bag to inflate to the full size. The air
bag fully inflates in about 15 to 20
milliseconds. The Supplemental
38

Driver Side Knee Air Bag gas is vented
through small vent holes in the side of
the air bag.
Supplemental Seat-Mounted Side
Air Bag (SAB) Inflator Units
The Supplemental Seat-Mounted
Side Air Bags (SAB) are designed to
activate only in certain side collisions.
The ORC determines if a side collision
requires the side air bags to inflate,
based on several factors, including the
severity and type of collision.
Based on several factors, including
the severity and type of collision, the
side air bag inflator on the crash side
of the vehicle may be triggered, re-
leasing a quantity of non-toxic gas.
The inflating SAB exits through the
seat seam into the space between the
occupant and the door. The SAB fully
inflate in about 10 milliseconds. The
side air bag moves at a very high
speed and with such a high force that
it could injure you if you are not
seated properly, or if items are posi-
tioned in the area where the side air
bag inflates. This especially applies to
children.Supplemental Side Air Bag
Inflatable Curtain (SABIC)
Inflator Units
During collisions where the impact is
confined to a particular area of the
side of the vehicle, the ORC may de-
ploy the SABIC air bags, depending
on the severity and type of collision. In
these events, the ORC will deploy the
SABIC only on the impact side of the
vehicle.
A quantity of non-toxic gas is gener-
ated to inflate the side curtain air bag.
The inflating side curtain air bag
pushes the outside edge of the head-
liner out of the way and covers the
window. The air bag inflates in about
30 milliseconds (about one-quarter of
the time that it takes to blink your
eyes) with enough force to injure you
if you are not belted and seated prop-
erly, or if items are positioned in the
area where the side curtain air bag
inflates. This especially applies to
children. The side curtain air bag is
only about 9 cm thick when it is in-
flated.
Because air bag sensors estimate de-
celeration over time, vehicle speedand damage are not good indicators of
whether or not an air bag should have
deployed.
Front And Side Impact Sensors
In front and side impacts, impact sen-
sors can aid the ORC in determining
appropriate response to impact events.Enhanced Accident Response
System
In the event of an impact causing air
bag deployment, if the communica-
tion network remains intact, and the
power remains intact, depending on
the nature of the event the ORC will
determine whether to have the En-
hanced Accident Response System
perform the following functions:
 Cut off fuel to the engine.
 Flash hazard lights as long as the
battery has power or until the igni-
tion key is turned off.
 Turn on the interior lights, which remain on as long as the battery has
power, until the ignition key is re-
moved or the ignition switch is
changed to OFF using the Keyless
Go Start/Stop button.
 Unlock the doors automatically.

When calling a number with your
Uconnect™ Phone that normally re-
quires you to enter in a touch-tone
sequence on your mobile phone key-
pad, you can utilize the touch-screen
or press the
button and say the
word “Send” then the sequence you
wish to enter. For example, if required
to enter your PIN followed with a
pound, (3 7 4 6 #), you can press the
button and say, “Send 3 7 4 6
#”. Saying “Send” followed by a
number, or sequence of numbers, is
also to be used for navigating through
an automated customer service center
menu structure, and to leave a num-
ber on a pager.
You can also send stored mobile
phonebook entries as tones for fast
and easy access to voice mail and
pager entries. For example, if you pre-
viously created a Phonebook entry
with First and/or Last Name as
“Voicemail Password”, then if you
press the
button and say “Send
Voicemail Password” the Uconnect™
Phone will then send the correspond- ing phone number associated with the
phonebook entry, as tones over the
phone.
NOTE:
 The first number encountered
for that contact will be sent. All
other numbers entered for that
contact will be ignored.
 You may not hear all of the tones due to mobile phone network
configurations. This is normal.
 Some paging and voice mail sys- tems have system time out set-
tings that are too short and may
not allow the use of this feature.
 Pauses, wait or other characters that are supported by some
phones are not supported over
Bluetooth®. These additional
symbols will be ignored in the
dialing a numbered sequence.
Barge In — Overriding Prompts
The
button can be used when
you wish to skip part of a prompt and
issue your voice command immedi-
ately. For example, if a prompt is ask-
ing “There are 2 numbers with the
name John. Say the full name” you could press the
button and say,
“John Smith” to select that option
without having to listen to the rest of
the voice prompt.
Voice Response Length
It is possible for you to choose be-
tween Brief and Detailed Voice Re-
sponse Length.
 Touch the “More” soft-key, then touch the “Settings” soft-key,
 Touch the “Display” soft-key, then scroll down to Voice Response
Length,
 Select either “Brief” or “Detailed” by touching the box next to the
selection. A check-mark will ap-
pear to show your selection.
Phone And Network Status
Indicators
Uconnect™ Phone will provide noti-
fication to inform you of your phone
and network status when you are at-
tempting to make a phone call using
Uconnect™ Phone. The status is
given for network signal strength and
phone battery strength.
