When HD Radio™ broadcasts are active, you can
access the following functions:
Seek Up And Down: Press to seek to the next
strong radio station. If the current station has
multiple digital broadcasts, the multicast indi -
cator numbers will display. Press “Seek” repeat -
edly to advance through all available
b roadc

asts. If you are on the last multicast
channel, press “Seek Up” to advance to the next
strong station.
Saving A Multicast Station As A Preset: When
the channel is active on-screen, press and hold
a Preset button; it will save the station to the
available slot. When recalling an HD2, HD3, etc.
memory preset, there will be a momentary mute
before the digital audio is played as the system
acquires the digital signal. If you have turned
this feature off, this will automatically turn on
HD Radio™ broadcasts and will tune to the
selected frequency. As with any saved radio
station, you will not be able to access the saved
station if your vehicle is outside the station’s
reception area.
“LIVE” Ballgame Mode Broadcasts: If a station
has a live broadcast (such as a baseball game),
“LIVE” may appear on screen beside the multi -
cast numbers. These are analog broadcasts
with d

igital components (i.e. artist, title). If HD1
is in a live broadcast mode, the HD Radio™ logo
will be gray. You will hear analog audio; the user
will still be able to tune to the multicast chan -
nels.
Reception Area:
If y ou
are listening to a multicast
(HD2, HD3, etc.) station and you are on the fringe
of the reception area, the station may mute due to
weak signal strength. If you are listening to HD1,
the system will simply switch to the analog
broadcast until the digital broadcast is available
again.
However, if you are listening to any of the possible
multi c

ast (HD2, HD3, etc.) channels, the station
will mute and stay muted unless it is able to
connect to the digital signal again. While in this
state, the text “buffering” will appear for 30 sec-
onds. If it is not able to reconnect to the digital
signal, the screen will be cleared and “HD Radio™
Signal Unavailable” will appear in artist and title
field area. Station Blending:
When
an HD1 station is received,
the system will play the analog audio broadcast
from the station for a few seconds and then, if the
receiver verifies the station is an HD Radio™
station, it will transition to play the digital audio
broadcast. Depending on the station quality, you
may hear a slight sound change when the station
transitions from analog to the digital broadcast.
The shift from analog to digital or digital back to
analog sound is known as “blending”.
Station Issues: In ord
er to provide the best
possible experience, a contact form has been
developed to report any station issues found while
listening to a station broadcasting with HD Radio™
technology. Every station is independently owned
and operated. These stations are responsible for
ensuring all audio streams and data fields are
accurate. This form can be found at https://
hdradio.com/stations/feedback/ .

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
devic e

s are allowed to be linked to the system.

Phone Button
The Phone button on your steering wheel
is used to get into the Phone Mode and
make c

alls, 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

and w h

en you are already in a call or
want to make another call.
The button on your steering wheel is also used to
acces s

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 Smit h

mobile”.

2. Say the individual commands and allow the syste
m to guide you to complete the task.
You will be prompted for a specific command and
then g
uided 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
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.

“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.
NATURAL SPEECH
Your Uconnect Phone Voice system uses a Natural
Language Voice Recognition (VR) engine.
Natural speech allows the user to speak
command

s 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
phras e

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
syste
m

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 t

he 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.
