Voice Recognition

Voice Recognition

Voice recognition allows for
hands-free operation within the
navigation, audio, phone, and
weather applications. This feature
can be started by pressing

g

on the

steering wheel controls or by
touching

g

on the infotainment

display.

However, not all features within
these areas are supported by voice
commands. Generally, only complex
tasks that require multiple manual
interactions to complete are
supported by voice commands.

For example, tasks that take more
than one or two touches such as
selecting a song or artist to play
from a media device would be
supported by voice commands.
Other tasks, like adjusting the
volume or seeking up or down, are
audio features that are easily
performed by pressing one or two
controls, and are not supported by
voice commands.

In general there are flexible ways to
speak commands for completing the
tasks. Most of them, except
destination entry and voice keypad,
can be completed in a single
command. If the task takes more
than one command to complete, the
first command should be to indicate
the kind of task to be performed, like

Navigation Destination Entry.

The

system replies with prompts that
lead you through a dialog to enter
the necessary information. For
example, if a destination for route
guidance is needed, say

Navigation

or

Destination Entry.

Voice recognition can be used when
the ignition is on or when Retained
Accessory Power (RAP) is active.
See

Retained Accessory Power

(RAP)

in the owner

s manual.

Using Voice Recognition

Voice recognition becomes available
once the system has been
initialized. This begins when the
ignition is turned on. Initialization
may take a few moments.

1. Press

g

on the steering wheel

controls to activate voice
recognition, or touch

g

on the

infotainment display.

2. The audio system mutes and

the system plays a prompt
followed by a beep.

3. Wait until after the beep

completes, then clearly speak
one of the commands
described in this section.

A voice recognition system
prompt can be interrupted while
it is playing by pressing

g

on

the steering wheel controls
again.

For example, if the prompt
seems to be taking too long to
finish, press

g

again and the

beep should happen
right away.
