To make a second call while you are currently on a call,
push the Voice Command

button and say “Dial” or

“Call” followed by the phone number or phonebook
entry you wish to call. The first call will be on hold

Uconnect Phone Features

Language Selection

To change the language that the Uconnect Phone is using:
• Push the Phone

button to begin.

• After the “Ready” prompt and the following beep, say

the name of the language you wish to switch to English,
Espanol, or Francais.

• Continue to follow the system prompts to complete the

After selecting one of the languages, all prompts and voice
commands will be in that language.

NOTE:

After every Uconnect Phone language change

operation, only the language-specific 32-name phonebook
is usable. The paired phone name is not language-specific
and usable across all languages.

Emergency Assistance

If you are in an emergency and the mobile phone is
reachable:
• Pick up the phone and manually dial the emergency

number for your area.

If the phone is not reachable and the Uconnect Phone is
operational, you may reach the emergency number as
follows:
• Push the Phone

button to begin.

• After the “Ready” prompt and the following beep, say

“Emergency” and the Uconnect Phone will instruct the
paired mobile phone to call the emergency number.

NOTE:
• The emergency number dialed is based on the country

where the vehicle is purchased (911 for the U.S. and
Canada and 060 for Mexico). The number dialed may
not be applicable with the available mobile service and
area.

• If supported, this number may be programmable on

some systems. To do this, push the Phone

button and

say “Setup,” followed by “Emergency.”

• The Uconnect Phone does slightly lower your chances of

successfully making a phone call as to that for the
mobile phone directly.

WARNING!

To use your Uconnect Phone System in an emergency,
your mobile phone must be:
• Turned on.

• Paired to the Uconnect System.

• Have network coverage.

Roadside Assistance/Towing Assistance

If you need roadside assistance:
• Push the Phone

button to begin.

• After the “Ready” prompt and the following beep, say

“Towing Assistance.”

NOTE:

You should program the desired Towing Assistance

phone number using the Voice Command system. To do
this, push the Phone

button and say “Setup,” fol-

lowed by “Towing Assistance.” When prompted say
1-800-521-2779 for U.S., 1-800-363-4869 for Canada, 55-
14-3454 for Mexico City and 1-800-712-3040 for outside
Mexico City in Mexico.

Paging

To learn how to page, refer to “Working With Automated
Systems.” Paging works properly except for pagers of
certain companies, which time out a little too soon to work
properly with the Uconnect Phone.

Voice Mail Calling

To learn how to access your voice mail, refer to “Working
With Automated Systems.”

Working With Automated Systems

This method is used in instances where one generally has
to press numbers on the mobile phone keypad while
navigating through an automated telephone system.

You can use your Uconnect Phone to access a voice mail
system or an automated service, such as a paging service or
automated customer service line. Some services require
immediate response selection. In some instances, that may
be too quick for use of 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 push the Voice Com-
mand

button and say the sequence you wish to enter,

followed by the word “Send.” For example, if required

472

MULTIMEDIA

to enter your PIN followed with a pound, (3 7 4 6 #), you
can push the Voice Command

button and say, “3 7 4

6 # Send.” Saying a number, or sequence of numbers,
followed by “Send,” is also to be used for navigating
through an automated customer service center menu
structure, and to leave a number on a pager.

You can also send stored Uconnect Phonebook 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 push the Voice Command

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 push the
Voice Command

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 number before you dial it).

To turn confirmation prompts on or off using Voice Com-
mand:

1. Push the Phone

button to begin.

2. 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 notifica-
tion 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 roaming, 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 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 situation,
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.

Mute/Un-Mute (Mute ON/OFF)

When you mute the Uconnect Phone, you will still be able
to hear the conversation coming from the other party, but
the other party will not be able to hear you. To mute the
Uconnect Phone:
• Push the Voice Command

button.

• Following the beep, say “Mute.”

To un-mute the Uconnect Phone:
• Push the Voice Command

button.

• Following the beep, say “Mute off.”

Advanced Phone Connectivity

Transfer Call To And From Mobile Phone

The Uconnect Phone allows ongoing calls to be transferred
from your mobile phone to the Uconnect Phone without
terminating the call. To transfer an ongoing call from your
Uconnect Phone paired mobile phone to the Uconnect
Phone or vice versa, push the Voice Command

button

and say “Transfer Call.”
