Using the touch sensitive controls on your system
Your vehicle’s centerstack is equipped with touch sensitive switches for
your infotainment and climate control systems. To activate or deactivate
a feature, you need only touch the graphic with your finger.
For optimum performance of these touch sensitive controls,
please note the following:
•The touch sensors are sensitive to light touch. You do not need to
apply forceful pressure on these controls to use them.
•Use your bare finger to touch the center of a touch control graphic.
Touching off-center of the graphic may cause nearby control to
activate/deactivate.
•Ensure that your hands are clean, dry and free of moisture.
•Since the touch control sensor operates based on the touch of a
finger, you may have trouble using them if you are wearing gloves.
•Metal and other conductive material should be kept away from the
surface of the touch controls as this may cause electronic interference
(i.e. control activation).
Depending on your vehicle and option package, you may also have
some of the following controls on your bezel:
•
(Power):Touch to turn the media (or climate features) on/off.
•VOL:Use to increase/decrease the volume.
•VOL and
slider bars:Lightly slide your finger over the rear
slider area to increase/decrease the volume or fan levels.
•
