Uconnect Voice Command ButtonThe Uconnect Voice Command
Button is
only used for “barge in” and when you are
already in a call and you want to send Tones
or make another call.
The Uconnect Phone is fully integrated with the vehicle’s
audio system. The volume of the Uconnect Phone can be
adjusted either from the radio volume control knob or
from the steering wheel radio control (right switch), if so
equipped.
Operation
Voice commands can be used to operate the Uconnect
Phone and to navigate through the Uconnect Phone
menu structure. Voice commands are required after most
Uconnect Phone prompts. There are two general methods
for how Voice Command works: 1. Say compound commands like “Call John Smith mo-
bile.”
2. Say the individual commands and allow the system to guide you to complete the task.
You will be prompted for a specific command and then
guided through the available options.
• Prior to giving a voice command, one must wait for the
beep, which follows the “Listen” prompt or another
prompt.
• For certain operations, compound commands can be
used. For example, instead of saying “Call” and then
“John Smith” and then “mobile,” the following com-
pound command can be said: “Call John Smith mo-
bile.”
• For each feature explanation in this section, only the
compound command form of the voice command is
given. You can also break the commands into parts and

say each part of the command when you are asked for
it. For example, you can use the compound command
form voice command “Search for John Smith,” or you
can break the compound command form into two
voice commands: “Search Contact” and when asked
“John Smith.” Please remember, the Uconnect Phone
works best when you talk in a normal conversational
tone, as if speaking to someone sitting a few feet/
meters away from you.
Natural Speech
Your Uconnect Phone Voice system uses a Natural Lan-
guage Voice Recognition (VR) engine.
Natural speech allows the user to speak commands in
phrases or complete sentences. The system filters out
certain non-word utterances and sounds such as “ah”
and “eh.” The system handles fill-in words such as “I
would like to.”The system handles multiple inputs in the same phrase
or sentence such as “make a phone call” and “to Kelly
Smith.” For multiple inputs in the same phrase or sen-
tence, the system identifies the topic or context and
provides the associated follow-up prompt such as “Who
do you want to call?” in the case where a phone call was
requested but the specific name was not recognized.
The system utilizes continuous dialog; when the system
requires more information from the user it will ask a
question to which the user can respond without pushing
the “Voice Command”button on your steering
wheel.
