Voice Training

For users experiencing difficulty with the system recog-
nizing their voice commands or numbers the Uconnect
Voice “Voice Training” feature may be used.

1. Push the Voice Command

button, say “System

Setup” and once you are in that menu then say
“Voice Training.” This will train your own voice to
the system and will improve recognition.

2. Repeat the words and phrases when prompted by

Uconnect Voice. For best results, the “Voice Training”
session should be completed when the vehicle is
parked, engine running, all windows closed, and the
blower fan switched off. This procedure may be re-
peated with a new user. The system will adapt to the
last trained voice only.

VOICE COMMAND

Uconnect 8.4/8.4 Nav

The Uconnect Voice Command system allows
you to control your AM, FM radio, satellite
radio, disc player, USB/iPod and SiriusXM
Travel Link.

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 affected by rapid speaking
or a raised voice level.

WARNING!

Any voice commanded system should be used only
in safe driving conditions following all applicable

WARNING! (Continued)

laws, including laws regarding phone use. Your at-
tention should be focused on safely operating the
vehicle. Failure to do so may result in a collision
causing serious injury or death.

When you push the Uconnect Voice Command

but-

ton, 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 will end.

Pushing the Uconnect Voice Command

button while

the system is speaking is known as “barging in.” The
system will be interrupted, and after the beep, you can
say a command. 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 speaking volume.

The system will best recognize your speech if the win-
dows are closed, and the heater/air conditioning fan is
set to low.

At any point, if the system does not recognize one of your
commands, you will be prompted to repeat it.
