Voice Recognition: Setup & Commands

When you’re driving, it’s often easier to say what you need rather than accessing the various controls.
The UVO link with Navigation infotainment system with UVO’s Voice Recognition system helps you access various functions without pressing buttons or keys.
This helps you interact with the system without distraction.
For best results, close the sunroof, roll up the windows, and reduce the fan speed.
On the steering wheel, press the Talk button and Voice Recognition starts.
[SYSTEM SAYS: “Please say a command.”]
When you hear the beep, say a command, like: “Call Lisa Smith.”
[SYSTEM SAYS: “Calling Lisa Smith.”]
You’ll notice when you press the Talk button, the icon on the screen changes from a speaker to a microphone – that means the system is listening to what you’re saying. And, there are three icons on the left-hand side of the screen:
Call.
Navigation.
And Music.
You have the option to call the last person dialed… call a contact… or, enter a new number manually.
{Call Lisa Smith}
Or you can say things like, “Call work”…
You can also ask the system to Dial a number…
Send a message…
Or, change Bluetooth device.

You can also access frequently visited destinations… Address Book… and Traffic Information.
You can say: Go Home. Go to Work.
You can also pick which radio band you want to listen to: FM, AM or SiriusXM.

The system will also play music from the connected Media device
To end Voice Recognition, just say “Exit.”
Or, on the voice recognition screen, press “Exit.”
You can also press the end call button on the Steering Wheel.
When you are using Voice Recognition, you will notice various icons on the screen: a Phone icon, a Navigation icon and a Music icon.
Pressing the Phone button gives you the option to call the last person dialed, call a new contact, or enter a new number manually.
