Phonebook
• Uconnect® radios automatically downloads your phonebook from your paired phone, ifthis feature is supported by your phone. Entries are updated each time that the phone is
connected. If your phone book entries do not appear, check the settings on your phone.
Some phones require you to enable this feature manually.
• Your phonebook can be browsed on your radio screen, but editing can only be done on your phone. To browse, touch the “Phone” soft-key, then the “Phonebook” soft-key.
• Favorite phonebook entries can be saved as Favorites for quicker access. Favorites are shown at the top of your main phone screen.
Voice Command Tips
• Using complete names (i.e; Call John Doe vs. Call John) will result in greater systemaccuracy.
• You can “chain” commands together for faster results. Say “Call John Doe, mobile”, for example.
• If you are listening to available voice command options, you do not have to listen to the entire list. When you hear the command that you need, press the
button on the
steering wheel, wait for the beep and say your command.
Changing The Volume
• Start a dialogue by pressing the Phone button, then say a command for example
- "Help".
• Use the radio ON/OFF VOLUME rotary knob to adjust the volume to a comfortable level while the Uconnect® system is speaking. Please note the volume setting for Uconnect®
is different than the audio system.
NOTE:
To access help, press the Uconnect® Phone
button on the steering wheel and say
"help." Touch the display or push either
orbutton and say "cancel" to cancel
the help session.
