Your mobile phone’s audio is transmitted through

your vehicle’s audio system; the system will

automatically mute your radio when using the

Uconnect Phone.
For Uconnect customer support:

Uconnect Phone allows you to transfer calls

between the system and your mobile phone as you

enter or exit your vehicle and enables you to mute

the system's microphone for private conversation.

The Phone feature is driven through your

Bluetooth® “Hands-Free Profile” mobile phone.

Uconnect features Bluetooth® technology — the

global standard that enables different electronic

devices to connect to each other without wires or a

docking station. Ensure you phone is turned on with

Bluetooth® active and has been paired to the

Uconnect system. Up to 10 mobile phones or audio

devices are allowed to be linked to the system. Only

one linked (or paired) mobile phone and one audio

device can be used with the system at a time.
Phone Button

The Phone button on your steering wheel

is used to get into the Phone Mode and

make calls, show recent, incoming or

outgoing calls, view phonebook, etc.

When you push the button you will hear a BEEP.

The BEEP is your signal to give a command.
Voice Command Button

The Voice Command button on your

steering wheel is only used for “barge in”

and when you are already in a call or

want to make another call.

The button on your steering wheel is also used to

access the Voice Commands for the Uconnect Voice

Command features if your vehicle is equipped.

Phone Operation

OPERATION

Voice commands can be used to operate the

Uconnect Phone and to navigate its 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 mobile”.

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 compound command can be said:

“Call John Smith mobile.”



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 Contacts”

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.

WARNING!

ALWAYS drive safely with your hands on the

steering wheel. You have full responsibility and

assume all risks related to the use of the

Uconnect features and applications in this

vehicle. Only use Uconnect when it is safe to do

so. Failure to do so may result in an accident

involving serious injury or death.

NATURAL SPEECH

Your Uconnect Phone Voice system uses a Natural

Language 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 sentence, 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 the

steering wheel.

HELP COMMAND

If you need assistance at any prompt, or if you want

to know your options at any prompt, say “Help”

following the beep.
To activate the Uconnect Phone from idle, simply

push the Phone button (if active) on your steering

wheel and say a command or say “Help”. All Phone

sessions begin with a push of the VR button or the

Phone button.

CANCEL COMMAND

At any prompt, after the beep, you can say “Cancel”

and you will be returned to the main menu.
You can also push the VR button or Phone button

on your steering wheel when the system is listening

for a command and be returned to the main or

previous menu.

Did You Know: Voice Text Reply is not compatible

with iPhone®, but if your vehicle is equipped with

Siri® Eyes Free, you can use your voice to send a

text message.

SIRI® EYES FREE — IF EQUIPPED

When used with your Apple® iPhone® connected

to your vehicle via Bluetooth®, Siri lets you use

your voice to send text messages, select media,

place phone calls and much more. Siri uses your

natural language to understand what you mean

and responds back to confirm your requests. The

system is designed to keep your eyes on the road

and your hands on the wheel by letting Siri help you

perform useful tasks.
To enable Siri, push and hold, then release the

Uconnect Voice Recognition (VR) button on the

steering wheel. After you hear a double beep, you

can ask Siri to play podcasts and music, get

directions, read text messages, and many other

useful requests.

Mobile phones may lose connection to the

Uconnect Phone. When this happens, the

connection can generally be re-established by

restarting the mobile phone. Your mobile phone is

recommended to remain in Bluetooth® ON mode.

POWER-UP

After switching the ignition key from OFF to either

the ON/RUN or ACC position, or after a language

change, you must wait at least 15 seconds prior to
