Call Continuation
Call continuation is the progression of a phone call on the
Uconnect™ Phone after the vehicle ignition key has been
switched to OFF. Call continuation functionality avail-
able on the vehicle can be any one of three types:

• After the ignition key is switched to OFF, a call can

continue on the Uconnect™ Phone either until the call
ends, or until the vehicle battery condition dictates
cessation of the call on the Uconnect™ Phone and
transfer of the call to the mobile phone.

• After the ignition key is switched to OFF, a call can

continue on the Uconnect™ Phone for a certain dura-
tion, after which the call is automatically transferred
from the Uconnect™ Phone to the mobile phone.

• An active call is automatically transferred to the

mobile phone after the ignition key is switched to OFF.

Uconnect™ Phone Features

Language Selection
To change the language that the Uconnect™ Phone is
using:

• Press the

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 language selection.

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

After every Uconnect™ Phone language change

operation, only the language-specific 32-name phone-
book 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:

• Press the

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 num-
ber. This feature is supported in the U.S., Canada, and
Mexico.

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, press the

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 emer-
gency, your mobile phone must be:
• turned on,
• paired to the Uconnect™ System,

• and have network coverage.

Towing Assistance
If you need towing assistance:

• Press the

button to begin.

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

“Towing Assistance”.

NOTE:

• The towing assistance number dialed is based on the

country where the vehicle is purchased (1-800-528-
2069 for the U.S., 1-877-213-4525 for Canada, 55-14-
3454 for Mexico City and 1-800-712-3040 for outside
Mexico City in Mexico). Please refer to the 24-Hour
Towing Assistance coverage details on the DVD in the
Warranty Information Booklet and the 24-Hour Tow-
ing Assistance references.

• If supported, this number may be programmable on

some systems. To do this, press the

button and say

“Setup”, followed by “Towing Assistance”.

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 ser-
vices require immediate response selection. In some
instances, that may be too quick for use of the
Uconnect™ Phone.

114

UNDERSTANDING THE FEATURES OF YOUR VEHICLE

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 press the
button and say the sequence you wish to enter, followed
by the word “Send”. For example, if required to enter
your PIN followed with a pound, (3 7 4 6 #), you can
press the

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 press the

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 press the

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).

• Press the

button to begin.

• 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
notification 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

威 mobile

phone, the audio will be played through your vehicle’s
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.
