The VR button is used to activate/deactivate your
Voice Recognition system.
Helpful hints for using Voice Recognition:

1. Visit
UconnectPhone.com
to check mobile device
and feature compatibility and to find phone pairing
instructions.

2. Reduce background noise. Wind noise and passenger conversations are examples of noise that
may impact recognition.
3. Speak clearly at a normal pace and volume while facing straight ahead. The microphone is located in
the headliner and aimed at the driver.
4. Each time you give a Voice Command, you must first push either the VR or Phone button, wait until after
the beep, then say your Voice Command. You can
also say the vehicle “Wake Up” word and state your
command. Some examples of “Wake Up” words
include “Hey Uconnect” or “Hey Ram”.
5. You can interrupt the help message or system prompts by pushing the VR or Phone button and
saying a Voice Command from the current category.

ODE MESSAGE — ELECTRICAL LOAD
R
EDUCTION ACTIONS — IF EQUIPPED
This vehicle is equipped with an Intelligent Battery Sensor
(IBS) to perform additional monitoring of the electrical
system and status of the vehicle battery.
In cases when the IBS detects charging system failure, or
the vehicle battery conditions are deteriorating, electrical
load reduction actions will take place to extend the driving
time and distance of the vehicle. This is done by reducing
power to or turning off non-essential electrical loads.
Load reduction is only active when the engine is running.
It will display a message if there is a risk of battery
depletion to the point where the vehicle may stall due to
lack of electrical supply, or will not restart after the current
drive cycle.
When load reduction is activated, the message “Battery
Saver On Some Systems May Have Reduced Power” will
appear in the instrument cluster.
These messages indicate the vehicle battery has a low
state of charge and continues to lose electrical charge at
a rate that the charging system cannot sustain.
