mand period.
Performance is maximized under: low-to-medium blower setting,
low-to-medium vehicle speed,
low road noise,
smooth road surface,
fully closed windows,
dry weather condition.
Even though the system is designed for users speaking in North Ameri-
can English, French, and Spanish
accents, the system may not always
work for some. When navigating through an auto-
mated system such as voice mail, or
when sending a page, before speak-
ing the digit string, make sure to
say “Send”.
Storing names in your favorites phonebook when the vehicle is not
in motion is recommended.
Phonebook (Mobile and Favorites) name recognition rate is optimized
when the entries are not similar.

with the convertible top down. Far End Audio Performance
Audio quality is maximized under:
low-to-medium blower setting,
low-to-medium vehicle speed,
low road noise,
smooth road surface,
fully closed windows,
dry weather conditions, and

rely on the phone and network, and
not the Uconnect™ Phone.
Echo at the far end can sometimes be reduced by lowering the in-
vehicle audio volume.
In a convertible vehicle, system per- formance may be compromised
with the convertible top down.

VOICE COMMAND
Uconnect Touch™ 8.4/8.4
Nav The Uconnect™ Voice
Command system allows
you to control your AM, FM
radio, satellite radio, disc
player, SD Card or USB/iPod. NOTE:
Take care to speak into the Voice
Command system as calmly and
normally as possible. The ability
of the Voice Command system to
recognize user voice commands
may be negatively affected by
rapid speaking or a raised voice
level.
WARNING!

conditions following local laws. All
attention should be kept on the
roadway ahead. Failure to do so may
result in a collision cau sing serious
injury or death.
When you press the Uconnect™ Voice
Command
button, you will hear
a beep. The beep is your signal to give
a command.
If no command is spoken the system
will say one of two responses:
I didn't understand
I didn't get that, etc., If a command is not spoken a second
time, the system will respond with an
error and give some direction as what
can be said based on the context you
are in. After three consecutive failures
of a spoken command the VR session
with end.
Pressing the Uconnect™ Voice Com-
mand
button while the system
is speaking is known as “barging in.”
The system will be interrupted, and
after the beep, you can say a com-
mand. This will become helpful once
you start to learn the options.
NOTE:
At any time, you can say the words
“Cancel” or “Help”.
These commands are universal and
can be used from any menu. All other
commands can be used depending
upon the active application.
When using this system, you should
speak clearly and at a normal speak-
ing volume.
The system will best recognize your
speech if the windows are closed, and
the heater/air conditioning fan is set
to low.

To help protect against personal
injury, passengers should not be
seated in the rear cargo area. The
rear cargo space is intended for
load carrying purposes only, not
for passengers, who should sit in
seats and use seat belts.WARNING!
The weight and position of cargo
and passengers can change the ve-
hicle center of gravity and vehicle
handling. To avoid loss of control
resulting in personal injury, follow
these guidelines for loading your ve-
hicle:
Always place cargo evenly on the
cargo floor. Put heavier objects as
low and as far forward as possible.
Place as much cargo as possible in
front of the rear axle. Too much
weight or improperly placed
weight over or behind the rear
axle can cause the rear of the ve-
hicle to sway.

back. This could impair visibility
or become a dangerous projectile
in a sudden stop or collision.
