Voice command (uconnect 3/3 nav)
The Uconnect Voice Command system allows you to control your AM, FM radio, satellite radio, disc player, SD Card, 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 laws, including laws regarding phone use. Your attention 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 
button, you hear a beep. The beep is your signal to give a command.
If no command is spoken the system says one of two responses:
-
I didn't understand
-
I didn't get that
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 becomes 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 best recognizes your speech if the windows 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.
To hear available commands, push the Uconnect Voice Command button and say “Help.” You hear available commands for the screen displayed.
NATURAL SPEECH
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 pressing the Uconnect Voice Command button.
UCONNECT VOICE COMMANDS
The Uconnect Voice Command system understands two types of commands. Universal commands are available at all times. Local commands are available if the supported radio mode is active.
