Hands free texting while driving?

[aknightstale41]

I have a question, I just picked up a new jeep liberty 4x4 (actually a gift from an awesome bro and sister inlaw)...and in the jeep manual it says I can send an SMS message via my Bluetooth uconnect controls..but it doesn't say how, am I misunderstanding what the manual says?

Here is a link to a .pdf - it's the Uconnect user/instruction manual.

What year is it? I did a google on Jeep Liberty uConnect and a number of hits came up, but not sure of the year.
Edit: maybe this will help?

Thanks Roof, Its a 2012, the manual they give you is kinda lame, theres no instruction on how to use the Nav either..that youtube video seems like a solid workaround.

Which phone do you have? I would also suggest Siri. I use 'her' on my Bluetooth headset a lot. Not sure how it could or would integrate into your setup though.

I have the 4s, but for some reason Siri doesn't work when bluetooth is on and I'm in the car...I think the uconnect control cancels it out.

Interesting read, some seem to get Siri to work and others don't.

Does anyone know if there's anything like this for Pioneer head units?
