Using Voice Recognition
This system helps you control many
features using voice commands. This
allows you to keep your hands on the
wheel and focus on what is in front of you.
The system provides feedback through
audible tones, prompts, questions and
spoken confirmations depending on the
situation and the chosen level of
interaction (voice settings).
The system also asks short questions
(confirmation prompts) when it is not sure
of your request or when there are multiple
possible responses to your request.
When using voice commands, words and
icons may appear in the lower left status
bar indicating the status of the voice
session (such as Listening, Success, Failed,
Paused or Try Again).
How to Use Voice Commands with Your
System
E142599
Press the voice icon. After the
tone, speak your command
clearly.
These commands can be said at any time
during a voice session
"Cancel"
"Exit"
"Go back"
"List of commands"
"Main menu"
"Next page"
"Previous page"
"What can I say?"
"Help"
What Can I Say?
To access the available voice commands
for the current session, do one of the
following:
During a voice session, press the Help
icon (?) in the lower left status bar of
the screen.
Say, "What can I say?" for an
on-screen listing of the possible voice
commands associated with your
current voice session.
Press the voice icon. After the tone, say,
"Help" to hear a list of possible voice
commands.
Helpful Hints
Make sure the interior of your vehicle is
as quiet as possible. Wind noise from
open windows and road vibrations may
prevent the system from correctly
recognizing spoken commands.
After pressing the voice icon, wait until
after the tone sounds and Listening
appears before saying a command. Any
command spoken prior to this does not
register with the system.
Speak naturally, without long pauses
between words.
At any time, you can interrupt the
system while it is speaking by pressing
the voice icon.
Accessing a List of Available Commands
If you use the touchscreen, press the
Settings icon > Help > Voice
Command List.
If you use the steering wheel control,
press the voice icon. After the tone,
speak your command clearly.
