Notice the visual cues that inform you of your voice
recognition system’s status. Cues appear on the
touchscreen.
NOTE:On Uconnect 5 systems, the factory default Wake
Up word is set to “Hey Uconnect” and can be repro -
grammed through the Uconnect Settings.
GET STARTED
All you need to control your Uconnect system with
your voice are the buttons on your steering wheel.
Helpful hints for using Voice Recognition:
Reduce background noise. Wind and passenger
conversations are examples of noise that may
impact recognition.
Speak clearly at a normal pace and volume
while facing straight ahead.
Each time you give a Voice Command, first push
the VR 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”.
A passenger can press the VR button shortcut
on the radio status bar to also issue a
command.
You can interrupt the help message or system
prompts by pushing the VR button and saying a
Voice Command from the current category.

seat heater. It may cause burns even at low
temperatures, especially if used for long
periods of time.
Do not place anything on the seat or seatback
that insulates against heat, such as a blanket
or cushion. This may cause the seat heater to
overheat. Sitting in a seat that has been over -
heated could cause serious burns due to the
increased surface temperature of the seat.
