for hands-free operation of navigation and
audio system features. Voice recognition can be
used when the ignition is on or when Retained
Accessory Power (RAP) is active.This feature only works if the map DVD is inserted
and I AGREE has been selected. If you try to

on, will mute.
2. Clearly state one of the commands listed on
the following pages. For example, say “FM1”.
3. The system will tell you the command being
implemented. For example, the system will
say “FM1 Radio” and change the audio
system to the FM1 source.

You can end voice recognition by not speaking
any commands. After about ve seconds of
silence, the system will automatically cancel voice
recognition.
At times, the system may not understand a
spoken command. If this happens, try saying the
command again. If a spoken command is not
available, the system will provide feedback based
on availability.
While using voice recognition, make sure to keep
interior noise levels to a minimum. Otherwise,
the system might not recognize voice commands.
The system will only recognize commands
spoken in English.
Voice Recognition Commands
The following list shows all of the voice commands
available for the navigation system with a brief
description of each. To use the voice commands,
refer to the instructions listed previously.

Remember: ABS does not change the time you
need to get your foot up to the brake pedal
or always decrease stopping distance. If you get
too close to the vehicle in front of you, you will not
have time to apply your brakes if that vehicle
suddenly slows or stops. Always leave enough
room up ahead to stop, even though you
have ABS.
Using ABS
Do not pump the brakes. Just hold the brake
pedal down rmly and let anti-lock work for you.
You may hear a motor or clicking noise and
feel the brake pedal move a little during a stop,
but this is normal.
Braking in Emergencies
With ABS, you can steer and brake at the same
time. In many emergencies, steering can help you
more than even the very best braking.
Traction Control System (TCS)
Your vehicle has a traction control system that
limits wheel spin. This is especially useful in
slippery road conditions. The system operates only
if it senses that one or both of the rear wheels
are spinning or beginning to lose traction. When
this happens, the system works the rear brakes
and reduces engine power to limit wheel spin.
The TRAC SYSTEM ACTIVE message will display
on the Driver Information Center (DIC) when the
traction control system is limiting wheel spin.
SeeDIC Warnings and Messages on page 206.
You may feel or hear the system working, but this
is normal.
If your vehicle is in cruise control when the
traction control system begins to limit wheel spin,
the cruise control will automatically disengage.
When road conditions allow you to safely
use it again, you may reengage the cruise control.
SeeAdaptive Cruise Control on page 150or
Cruise Control on page 147for more information.
