VOICE COMMAND — IF EQUIPPED
Voice Command System Operation
This Voice Command system al-
lows you to control your AM, FM
radio, disc player, and a memo
recorder.
NOTE:
Take care to speak into the Voice Interface
System as calmly and normally as possible.
The ability of the Voice Interface System to
recognize user voice commands may be
negatively affected by rapid speaking or a
raised voice level.
WARNING!
Any voice commanded system should be
used only in safe driving conditions following
local laws. All attention should be kept on the
roadway ahead. Failure to do so may result in
a collision causing serious injury or death. When you press the Voice Command
button, you will hear a beep. The beep is your
signal to give a command.
NOTE:
If you do not say a command within a few
seconds, the system will present you with a
list of options.
If you ever wish to interrupt the system while it
lists options, press the Voice Command
button, listen for the beep, and say your com-
mand.
Pressing the Voice Command
button
while the system is speaking is known as
“barging in.” The system will be interrupted,
and after the beep, you can add or change
commands. This will become helpful once you
start to learn the options.
NOTE:
At any time, you can say the words “Can-
cel”, “Help” or “Main Menu”.
These commands are universal and can be
used from any menu. All other commands can
be used depending upon the active applica-
tion. When using this system, you should speak
clearly and at a normal speaking volume.
The system will best recognize your speech if
the windows are closed, and the heater/air
conditioning fan is set to low.
At any point, if the system does not recognize
one of your commands, you will be prompted to
repeat it.
To hear the first available Menu, press the Voice
Command
button and say “Help” or
“Main Menu”.
CommandsThe Voice Command system understands two
types of commands. Universal commands are
available at all times. Local commands are
available if the supported radio mode is active.
Changing The Volume
1. Start a dialogue by pressing the Voice Com-
mand
button.
2. Say a command (e.g., “Help”).
3. Use the ON/OFF VOLUME rotary knob to
adjust the volume to a comfortable level while
the Voice Command system is speaking.

fore Starting Your Vehicle” for further in-
formation.

• Active Head Restraints may be deployed if
they are struck by an object such as a
hand, foot or loose cargo. To avoid acci-
dental deployment of the Active Head Re-

loose cargo could contact the Active Head
Restraint during sudden stops. Failure to
follow this warning could cause personal
injury if the Active Head Restraint is de-
ployed.

position but do not return to their normal posi-
tion when the rear seat is raised. After returning
either seat to its upright position, raise the head
restraint until it locks in place. The outboard

Video Entertainment System (VES)™This manual is intended to aid with the opera-
tion of the rear seat Video Entertainment Sys-
tem (VES)™.
The Video Entertainment System (VES)™ ex-
pands the vehicle’s audio and video capabili-
ties so that rear passengers can enjoy movies,
music and external audio/video devices such
as video games or MP3 players. The VES™
integrates seamlessly with the vehicle’s radio
so the audio may be heard through the cabin
speakers and/or headphones. The system may
be controlled by the radio for front seat occu-
pants or controlled by the remote control for
rear seat occupants.The VES™ is a dual channel system. The video
screen displays information in a split screen
format. The left side of the screen is referred to
as Channel 1 and the right side of the screen is
referred to as Channel 2. All modes except
video modes (DVD video, Aux video) are dis-
played in a split screen format. When a video
mode is displayed it is displayed on the full
screen. The remote control is designed to con-
trol either channel by the use of the selector
switch located on the right side of the remote
control. The headphones are designed to listen
to either channel by use of the selector switch
located on the right ear cup.
Using the included dual channel wireless head-
phones, the VES™ allows rear passengers to
listen to two different audio sources simultane-ously. The wireless remote control allows rear
passengers to change stations, tracks, discs
and audio/video modes.
