VOICE COMMAND QUICK REFERENCE
Uconnect® 8.4AN Voice Command Quick Reference
If the Uconnect®Voice Commandbutton exists on your steering wheel, you
have the Voice Command feature, which is optimized for the driver. The Voice
Command feature lets you keep your hands on the wheel and your eyes on the road.
• When you press the Voice Command
button located on the steering wheel,
you will hear a beep. After the beep, give your command. If you do not know what
commands to say, you can say “help” and the system will provide options to you.
If you ever wish to interrupt the system while it lists options, press the Voice
Command
button, and after the beep, say your command.
NOTE:
All phone oriented voice commands are accessible by first pressing the Phone Pick
Up
button, not the Voice Command button. To end a call simply press the
Phone Hang Up
button. In some vehicles, the Phone Pickupbutton
serves the dual purpose of ending calls as well.
Voice Command (VR) User TIPs
• To hear available commands, press the Uconnect
®Voice Command
button and say “Help.” You will hear available commands for the menu displayed.
• At any time, you can say the words “Cancel” or “Help.” These commands are universal and can be used from virtually any menu. All other specific commands
can be used depending upon the active application.
• You can interrupt the system prompts at any time by pressing the Uconnect
®Voice
Command
button while the system is speaking. After the beep, you can say
a command.
• You can “chain” commands together for faster results. Say “Call Joe Doe mobile,” for example.
• For best performance, adjust the rearview mirror to provide at least ½ in (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.
• Ensure that no one other than you is speaking during a Voice Command period.
Steering Wheel Buttons
• You can control many of your radio features using your voice. Press either the Uconnect
®Voice Commandbutton, or the Phone Pick Upbutton on
your steering wheel.

UNIVERSAL GARAGE DOOR OPENER (HomeLink®)
HomeLink®replaces up to three hand-held transmitters that operate devices such as
garage door openers, motorized gates, lighting or home security systems. The HomeLink®
unit is powered by your vehicles 12 Volt battery.
The HomeLink®buttons that are located in the overhead console or sunvisor
designate the three different HomeLink®channels.
The HomeLink
®indicator is located above the center button.
Before You Begin Programming
HomeLink®
Ensure that your vehicle is parked out-
side of the garage before you begin pro-
gramming.
For efficient programming and accurate
transmission of the radio-frequency sig-
nal, it is recommended that a new battery

the device that is being programmed to
the HomeLink
®system.
Erase all channels before you begin pro-
gramming. To erase the channels, place
the ignition switch into the ON/RUN position, then press and hold the two outside
HomeLink
®buttons (I and III) for up to 20 seconds or until the red indicator flashes.
NOTE:
Erasing all channels should only be performed when programming HomeLink
®for
the first time. Do not erase channels when programming additional buttons.
If you have any problems, or require assistance, please call toll-free 1-800-355-3515
or, on the Internet at www.HomeLink.com for information or assistance.

Programming A Rolling Code
NOTE:
For programming Garage Door Openers that were manufactured after 1995. These
Garage Door Openers can be identified by the “LEARN” or “TRAIN” button located
where the hanging antenna is attached to the Garage Door Opener. It is NOT the
button that is normally used to open and close the door. The name and color of the
button may vary by manufacturer.
1. Place the ignition switch into the ON/RUN position.
2. Place the hand-held transmitter 1 to 3 in (3 to 8 cm) away from the HomeLink
®
button you wish to program while keeping the HomeLink®indicator light in view.
3. Simultaneously press and hold both the Homelink
®button you want to program
and the hand-held transmitter button.

button.
NOTE:
You have 30 seconds in which to initiate the next step after the LEARN button has
been pressed.

the button for two seconds each time). The EVIC will display “CHANNEL
#
TRANSMIT”. If the garage door opener/device activates, programming is complete.
