Dodge Challenger SRT8 (2009 year). Manual

Outside Mirrors
To receive maximum benefit, adjust the outside mirror(s)
to center on the adjacent lane of traffic and a slight
overlap of the view obtained from the inside mirror.

NOTE:

The passenger-side convex outside mirror will

give a much wider view to the rear, and especially of the
lane next to your vehicle.

WARNING!

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 convex 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 the passenger-side convex mirror.

Outside Mirrors Folding Feature
All models have exterior mirrors that are hinged. The
hinge allows the mirror to pivot forward and rearward to
resist damage. The hinge has three detent positions: full
forward, full rearward, and normal.

Power Mirrors
The power mirror switch is located on the driver’s door
trim panel next to the power door lock switch. A rotary

After selecting a mirror, move the knob in the same
direction you want the mirror to move. Use the center off
position to guard against accidentally moving a mirror
position.

Heated Mirrors — If Equipped

These mirrors are heated to melt frost or ice. This
feature is activated whenever you turn on the rear

window defroster. Refer to “Rear Window Features” in

UNDERSTANDING THE FEATURES OF YOUR VEHICLE

uconnect

威 allows you to transfer calls between the sys-

tem 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 phone 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 connect to each other
without wires or a docking station, so uconnect

威 phone

works no matter where you stow your cellular 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 phone. The uconnect威 phone 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.

Voice Recognition Button

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

The uconnect

威 phone can be used with any Hands-Free

Profile certified Bluetooth

威 cellular phone. See the

uconnect

威 website for supported phones. If your cellular

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

威 phone

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

UNDERSTANDING THE FEATURES OF YOUR VEHICLE

The uconnect

威 phone is fully integrated with the vehi-

cle’s audio system. The volume of the uconnect

威 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

威 phone such as ⬙CELL⬙ or caller ID on

certain radios.

Operation
Voice commands can be used to operate the uconnect

威

phone and to navigate through the uconnect

威 phone

menu structure. Voice commands are required after most
uconnect

威 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

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 phone 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.

UNDERSTANDING THE FEATURES OF YOUR VEHICLE

Help Command
If you need assistance at any prompt, or if you want to

the beep. The uconnect

威 phone will play all the options at

any prompt if you ask for help.

To activate the uconnect

威 phone from idle, simply press

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

威 phone 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 phone to a Cellular Phone

To begin using your uconnect

威 phone, 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 instructions

for pairing.

The following are general phone to uconnect

威 phone

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.

UNDERSTANDING THE FEATURES OF YOUR VEHICLE

• For identification purposes, you will be prompted to

give the uconnect

威 phone 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 phone. However, at any

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

威 phone. The priority

allows the uconnect

威 phone 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 phone 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).

Dial by Saying a Number

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