Things You Should Know About Your Uconnect®
Phone
Uconnect® Phone Tutorial
To hear a brief tutorial of the system features, press the
button and say “Uconnect® Tutorial.”
Voice Training
For users experiencing difficulty with the system recog-
nizing their voice commands or numbers, the Uconnect®
Phone Voice Training feature may be used. To enter this
training mode, follow one of the two following proce-
dures: From outside the Uconnect® Phone mode (e.g., from
radio mode):
•
Press and hold the
button for five seconds until
the session begins, or,
• Press thebutton and say the “Voice Training,”
“System Training,” or “Start Voice Training” com-
mand.
You can either press the Uconnect® Phone button to
restore the factory setting or repeat the words and
phrases when prompted by the Uconnect® Phone. For
best results, the Voice Training session should be com-
pleted when the vehicle is parked with the engine
running, all windows closed, and the blower fan
switched off.
This procedure may be repeated with a new user. The
system will adapt to the last trained voice only.

speak to a person sitting a few feet/meters away from
you. •

during a Voice Command period.
Performance is maximized under:
• Low-to-medium blower setting
• Low-to-medium vehicle speed

cents, the system may not always work for some.

as voice mail, or when sending a page, at the end of
speaking the digit string, make sure to say “Send.”
