VOICE COMMAND
Uconnect® 8.4/8.4 Nav
The Uconnect® Voice Com-
mand system allows you to
control your AM, FM 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 af-
fected by rapid speaking or a
raised voice level.
WARNING!
Any voice commanded system
should be used only in safe driving
conditions following all applicable
laws, including laws regarding
phone use. Your attention should be
focused on safely operating the ve-
hicle. Failure to do so may result in
an accident causing 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.
