This mirror automatically adjusts for headlight glare
from vehicles behind you. You can turn the feature on or
off by pressing the button at the base of the mirror. A light
next to the button will illuminate to indicate when the
dimming feature is activated.

CAUTION!

To avoid damage to the mirror during cleaning, never
spray any cleaning solution directly onto the mirror.
Apply the solution onto a clean cloth and wipe the
mirror clean.

Vehicles and other objects seen in the passenger side
convex mirror will look smaller and farther away
than they really are. Relying too much on your
passenger side mirror could cause you to collide with
another vehicle or other object. Use your inside
mirror when judging the size or distance of a vehicle
seen in this convex mirror.

Power Mirrors — If Equipped
The control for the power mirrors is located on the
drivers door trim panel.

Power Mirror Control

UNDERSTANDING THE FEATURES OF YOUR VEHICLE

To adjust a mirror, turn the control wand toward the left

HANDS-FREE COMMUNICATION (UConnect

姞) —

IF EQUIPPED

NOTE: The sales code RER and REU radios contain an
integrated Hands-Free Communication (UConnect

威)

system. Refer to your “Navigation User’s Manual” for
UConnect

威 system operating instructions for these ra-

dios. Radio sales code can be located on the lower right
corner of the Radio faceplate.

UConnect

威 is a voice-activated, hands-free, in-vehicle

communications system. UConnect

威 allows you to dial a

phone number with your cellular phone using simple
voice commands (e.g.,

⬙Call” ѧ “Mike” ѧ”Work⬙ or ⬙Dial”

ѧ “248-555-1212⬙). Your cellular phone’s audio is trans-
mitted through your vehicle’s audio system; the system
will automatically mute your radio when using the
UConnect

威 system.

Vanity Mirror

UNDERSTANDING THE FEATURES OF YOUR VEHICLE

NOTE:

The UConnect

威 system requires a cellular phone

equipped with the Bluetooth

威 ⬙Hands-Free Profile,⬙ Ver-

sion 0.96 or higher. See the UConnect

威 website for

supported phones.

NOTE:

For UConnect

威 customer support, visit the

following websites:

• www.chrysler.com/uconnect
• www.dodge.com/uconnect
• www.jeep.com/uconnect
• or call 1–877–855–8400

UConnect

威 allows you to transfer calls between the

system and your cellular phone as you enter or exit your
vehicle and enables you to mute the system’s microphone
for private conversation.

The UConnect

威 system is driven through your

Bluetooth

威 “Hands-Free Profile” cellular phone.

UConnect

威 features Bluetooth威 technology - the global

standard that enables different electronic devices to con-
nect to each other without wires or a docking station, so
UConnect

威 works no matter where you stow your cellu-

lar 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

威 system. The UConnect威 system

allows up to seven cellular phones to be linked to the
system. Only one linked (or paired) cellular phone can be
used with the system at a time. The system is available in
English, Spanish, or French languages.

Phone Button

The rearview mirror contains the microphone
for the system (depending on the type of
mirror and radio equipped), and either the
radio or the mirror has the two control buttons

(PHONE Button and VOICE RECOGNITION button)
that will enable you to access the system.

UNDERSTANDING THE FEATURES OF YOUR VEHICLE

Voice Recognition Button

Actual button location may vary with the ra-
dio. The individual buttons are described in the
“Operation” section.

The UConnect

威 system can be used with any Hands-Free

Profile certified Bluetooth

威 cellular phone. See the

UConnect

威 website for supported phones. If your cellu-

lar phone supports a different profile (e.g., Headset
Profile) you may not be able to use any UConnect

威

features. Refer to your cellular service provider or the
phone manufacturer for details.

The UConnect

威 system is fully integrated with the vehi-

cle’s audio system. The volume of the UConnect

威 system

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

威 system such as ⬙CELL⬙ or caller ID on

certain radios.

Operation
Voice commands can be used to operate the UConnect

威

system and to navigate through the UConnect

威 menu

structure. Voice commands are required after most
UConnect

威 system 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.⬙

UNDERSTANDING THE FEATURES OF YOUR VEHICLE

• For each feature explanation in this section, only the

combined form of the voice command is given. You
can also break the commands into parts and say each
part of the command when you are asked for it. For
example, you can use the combined form voice com-
mand

⬙Phonebook New Entry,⬙ or you can break the

combined form command into two voice commands:

⬙Phonebook⬙ and ⬙New Entry.⬙ Please remember, the
UConnect

威 system works best when you talk in a

normal conversational tone, as if speaking to someone
sitting a few feet/meters away from you.

Voice Command Tree
Refer to “Voice Tree” in this section.

Help Command
If you need assistance at any prompt, or if you want to
know your options at any prompt, say

⬙Help⬙ following

the beep. The UConnect

威 system will play all the options

at any prompt if you ask for help.

To activate the UConnect

威 system from idle, simply press

the PHONE button and follow the audible prompts for
directions. All UConnect

威 system sessions begin with a

press of the PHONE button on the radio control head.

Cancel Command
At any prompt, after the beep, you can say

⬙Cancel⬙ and

you will be returned to the main menu. However, in a
few instances the system will take you back to the
previous menu.

Pair (Link) UConnect

威 System to a Cellular Phone

To begin using your UConnect

威 system, you must pair

your compatible Bluetooth

威 enabled cellular phone.

To complete the pairing process, you will need to refer-
ence your cellular phone Owner’s Manual. The
UConnect

威 website may also provide detailed instruc-

tions for pairing.

UNDERSTANDING THE FEATURES OF YOUR VEHICLE

The following are general phone to UConnect

威 system

pairing instructions:

• Press the PHONE button to begin.
• After the ⬙Ready⬙ prompt and the following beep, say

⬙Setup Phone Pairing.⬙

• When prompted, after the beep, say ⬙Pair a Phone⬙ and

follow the audible prompts.

• You will be asked to say a four-digit Personal Identi-

fication Number (PIN), which you will later need to
enter into your cellular phone. You can enter any
four-digit PIN. You will not need to remember this PIN
after the initial pairing process.

• For identification purposes, you will be prompted to

give the UConnect

威 system a name for your cellular

phone. Each cellular phone that is paired should be
given a unique phone name.

• You will then be asked to give your cellular phone a

priority level between one and seven, with one being
the highest priority. You can pair up to seven cellular
phones to your UConnect

威 system. However, at any

given time, only one cellular phone can be in use,
connected to your UConnect

威 system. The priority

allows the UConnect

威 system to know which cellular

phone to use if multiple cellular phones are in the
vehicle at the same time. For example, if priority three
and priority five phones are present in the vehicle, the
UConnect

威 system will use the priority three cellular

phone when you make a call. You can select to use a
lower priority cellular phone at any time (refer to

⬙Advanced Phone Connectivity⬙ in this section).

the Bluetooth

威 link is busy. In this case, the user must

first disconnect or drop the Bluetooth

威 connection to

the UConnect

威 system, and then send the address
