UCONNECT VOICE RECOGNITION —
IF EQUIPPED
INTRODUCING VOICE RECOGNITION
Start using Uconnect Voice Recognition with
these helpful quick tips. It provides the key Voice
Commands and tips you need to know to control
your vehicle’s Voice Recognition (VR) system.
NOTE:Voice Recognition is only available on the
Uconnect 5 NAV With 10.1-inch Display.
BASIC VOICE COMMANDS
The following can be given at any point while using
your Uconnect system.
Push the VR button and after the beep, say a
command. You can also say the system “Wake Up”
word, “Hey Uconnect” or “Hey Ram”, and then say
a command. The factory default Wake Up word is
set to “Hey Uconnect” and can be reprogrammed
through the Uconnect Settings. After the beep, say:
“Cancel ” to stop a current voice session.
“Help ” to hear a list of suggested Voice
Commands.
“ Repeat ” to listen to the system prompts again.
Notice the visual cues that inform you of your Voice
Recognition system’s status.
GET STARTED
The VR button is used to activate/deactivate
your Voice Recognition system. You can also use
the system’s “Wake Up” word to activate voice
recognition. The “Wake Up” word can be set
through the Uconnect Settings Ú page 134.
Helpful hints for using Voice Recognition:
Reduce background noise. Wind noise 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. Also, you can say the vehicle
“Wake Up” word to issue a Voice Command.
The available “Wake Up” words are “Hey Uconnect”
and “Hey Ram”.

You can interrupt the help message or system
prompts by pushing the VR button and saying a
Voice Command from the current category.

OUTSIDE MIRRORS
To receive maximum benefit, adjust the outside
mirror(s) to center on the adjacent lane of traffic
with a slight overlap of the view obtained on the
inside mirror.

OUTSIDE MIRRORS WITH TURN SIGNAL
A
ND APPROACH LIGHTING —
I
F EQUIPPED
Driver and passenger outside mirrors with turn
signal and approach lighting contain four LEDs,
which are located in the upper outer corner of each
mirror.

Three of the LEDs are turn signal indicators, which flash
with the corresponding turn signal lights in the front
and rear of the vehicle. Turning on the Hazard Warning
flashers will also activate these LEDs.

The fourth LED supplies illuminated entry lighting,
which turns on in both mirrors when you use the
key fob or open any door. This LED shines outward
to illuminate the front and rear door handles.
It also shines downward to illuminate the area in
front of the doors.

The illuminated entry lighting fades to off after about
30 seconds or it will fade to off immediately once the
ignition is placed into the ON/RUN position.

NOTE:The approach lighting will not function when the
gear selector is moved out of the PARK position.
WARNING!
Vehicles and other objects seen in an outside
convex mirror will look smaller and farther away
than they really are. Relying too much on side
convex mirrors could cause you to collide with
another vehicle or other object. Use your inside
mirror when judging the size or distance of a
vehicle seen in a side convex mirror.
