DODGE GRAND CARAVAN 2015 5.G Owners Manual

Voice Command
For best performance:
•Adjust the rearview mirror to provide at least½inch
(1 cm) gap between the overhead console (if equipped)
and the mirror.
•Always wait for the beep before speaking.
•Speak normally without pausing, just as you would
speak to a person sitting a few feet/meters away from
you.
•Make sure that no one other than you is speaking
during a Voice Command period.
Performance is maximized under:
•Low-to-medium blower setting
•Low-to-medium vehicle speed
•Low road noise
•Smooth road surface
•Fully closed windows
•Dry weather condition
NOTE:
•Even though the system is designed for users speaking
in North American English, French, and Spanish ac-
cents, the system may not always work for some.
•When navigating through an automated system such
as voice mail, or when sending a page, at the end of
speaking the digit string, make sure to say “Send.”
•Storing names in the phonebook when the vehicle is
not in motion is recommended.
•It is not recommended to store similar sounding names
in the Uconnect® Phonebook.

•Phonebook (Downloaded and Uconnect® Phone Lo-
cal) name recognition rate is optimized when the
entries are not similar.
•Numbers must be spoken in single digits. “800” must
be spoken “eight-zero-zero” not “eight hundred.”
•You can say “O” (letter “O”) for “0” (zero).
•Even though international dialing for most number
combinations is supported, some shortcut dialing
number combinations may not be supported.

compromised with the convertible top down.

Audio quality is maximized under:
•Low-to-medium blower setting
•Low-to-medium vehicle speed
•Low road noise
•Smooth road surface
•Fully closed windows
•Dry weather conditions, and
•Operation from the driver’s seat.
NOTE:
•Performance, such as audio clarity, echo, and loudness
to a large degree rely on the phone and network, and
not the Uconnect® Phone.

by lowering the in-vehicle audio volume.
•In a convertible vehicle, system performance may be
compromised with the convertible top down.
