Using voice commands with the touchscreen options
Your voice system has a special dual mode feature which allows you to
switch between using voice commands and the touchscreen. The most
common place this is available is with your navigation feature (if
equipped). During a navigation voice session, you will notice that some
of the buttons on the screen are outlined in blue and some are not.
The buttons on the screen that are outlined in blue are both voice
commands and can be selected during a voice session. The buttons that
are not outlined in blue can’t be used as voice commands and if they are
touched during a voice session will cancel the voice session. Some
examples are as follows:
•If you press
and say, “Navigation”, after the system confirms the
command and prompts you again, say, “Destination”. The system will
change to the destination screen.
•If you say, “Intersection”, then the system will change the screen to
the intersection screen where “Street”, “City” and “State” are outlined
in blue. You are able to switch between fields by touching the buttons
or by saying, “Enter first street” or “Change city”.
•If you say, “Street Address” the screen will change to the street
address screen and then “Enter City”, where State, City, Street and
Number are outlined in blue indicating that you are able to switch
between the fields by touching the buttons or by saying commands
like “Enter Street”, “Change City”, or “Enter House Number”.
•If you are in the process of entering a destination by voice and your
vehicle comes to a stop, (for example, stopping at a red light), the key
board will appear on the screen. If you make more than three
consecutive button presses, (for example, spelling a city), then the
voice session will be cancelled.
