ask you to say the command again. If you have Confirmation prompts
OFF, the system may assume it understood your request or may ask you
to repeat your request. If the system is unsure of what was asked, it will
prompt you to try again or ask for help.
Note:Even with Confirmation prompts turned OFF, you may be asked to
confirm certain settings occasionally.
HOW TO USE VOICE COMMANDS WITH YOUR SYSTEM
Press
or VOICE on your steering wheel controls to activate Voice
Recognition. Depending on the feedback setting, you will hear the
prompt, “Please say a command” followed by a tone, or you will hear a
tone, signaling that the system is ready to accept your command. Any
command spoken prior to the beep will not register with the system.
Speak the command clearly to ensure that the system is able to
recognize and perform the desired function. You can, at any time,
press
or VOICE and say “Help” for a list of possible commands.
The main categories of your voice commands are as follows:
•Navigation•Climate (if equipped)
•Audio•Jukebox
•Radio•Display mode
•User profile•Disc
•CD•DVD
•Video CD•Line in
•Phone (if equipped)•Rear DVD (if equipped)
•Voice settings•USB (if equipped)
•Dial (if equipped)•Bluetooth audio (if equipped)
•Tutorial•Confirmations
To access a list of all available voice commands:
1. Press the i button (
) on the navigation system.
2. Select the ‘Help’ tab on the touchscreen.

signal. If you have turned this feature off, this will automatically turn
on HD Radio broadcasts and will tune to the selected frequency.
Note:As with any saved radio station, you will not be able to access
the saved station if your vehicle is outside the station’s reception area.
LIVE broadcasts:If a station has a
live broadcast (such as a baseball
game), LIVE will appear embedded
in the antenna on screen. These are
analog broadcasts with digital
components (i.e. artist, title).
Note:If HD1 is a live broadcast, the
HD Radio broadcast logo will not
appear. If HD2–HD8 is a live
broadcast, the multicast button may
be displayed, but not the HD Radio
broadcast logo.
HD Radio reception factors
Reception area:If you are listening to a multicast station and you are
on the fringe of the reception area, the station may mute due to weak
signal strength. If you are listening to HD1, the system will simply switch
to the analog broadcast until the digital broadcast is available again.
However, if you are listening to any of the possible HD2–HD8 multicast
channels, the station will mute and stay muted unless it is able to
connect to the digital signal again. If it is not able to reconnect, ‘HD
Unavailable’ will appear in the lower status bar.
Station blending:When a station is received, the system will play the
station in the analog version and then, if the receiver verifies the station
is an HD Radio station, it will shift into the digital version. Depending on
the station quality, you may hear a slight sound change when the station
segues from analog to the digital version. The shift from analog to digital
or digital back to analog sound is known as ’blending’.
Station issues
In order to provide the best possible experience, a contact form has been
developed to report any station issues found while listening to a station
broadcasting with HD Radio technology. Every station is independently
owned and operated. These stations are responsible for ensuring all
audio streams and data fields are accurate. This form can be found at:

PLAYING A CD
Note: CD units are designed to play commercially pressed 4.75 in
(12 cm) audio compact discs in the ISO 9660 format only. (UDF
format is not supported.) Due to technical incompatibility,
certain recordable and re-recordable compact discs may not
function correctly when used in CD players. Irregular shaped
CDs, CDs with a scratch protection film attached, and CDs with
homemade paper (adhesive) labels should not be inserted into
the CD player. The label may peel and cause the CD to become
jammed. It is recommended that homemade CDs be identified
with permanent felt tip marker rather than adhesive labels.
Ballpoint pens may damage CDs. Please contact your authorized
dealer for further information.
If you press CD/DVD and there is not a disc loaded into the system, NO
DISC will appear in the status bar and you will not be able to access the
CD screen.
•Insert a disc into the slot. The disc will begin to play.
You can access any of the following options in CD mode:

PRINCIPLES OF GPS
Your system directs you based on information derived from global
positioning satellites, road maps stored on the hard disk drive, sensors in
your vehicle and the desired destination. The system compiles all
necessary information to guide you to your selected destination. Space
satellites determine the vehicle’s current location and transmit position
and time signals to your car. If the vehicle has been parked for a long
period of time, the navigation function may be temporarily unresponsive.
The navigation system will operate reliably again once GPS reception is
available for a few minutes.
LIMITED GPS RECEPTION
System performance may be adversely affected if GPS reception is
interrupted or interference occurs over a distance of several miles. The
following are possible causes for GPS reception being interrupted. If the
vehicle is:
•In multi-story parking garages
•In tunnels and under bridges
•Inside or in between buildings
•By forests or tree-lined avenues
•In heavy rain showers and thunderstorms
•In valleys and in mountainous regions
•Roads under cliffs
Ensure that you do not have any metal objects on the dashboard and that
if your windows are tinted, they use non-metal tinting instead of metal
oxide tinting. Both of these factors can also interrupt GPS reception.
SYSTEM LIMITATIONS
Navigation system cold temperature operational limitations:The
navigation system’s performance will be slower than normal at
temperatures lower than -5° F (-20° C). At temperatures lower than -22°
F (-30° C), you will be notified that the system has shut down key
elements to protect itself. Normal system operation will return once the
unit has warmed up enough to operate without damage.
Other conditions:When calculating a route, the system doesn’t take
into consideration any of the following conditions:
•Traffic Conditions
•Weather Conditions
General Information
126
2012 Centerstack(ng1)
Supplement, 3rd Printing

•Driving Habits
•Construction Zones
•New Roads
Note:The system can consider traffic and construction conditions if the
data is available through SIRIUSTravel Link™ (if activated) and the
feature setting is enabled. (SIRIUSTravel Link™ is only available in the
U.S. Check with your authorized dealer for availability.)
CLEANING THE DISPLAY
Clean the display with a clean soft cloth such as one used for cleaning
glasses. If dirt or finger prints are still visible, apply a small amount of
alcohol to the cloth. Do not pour/spray alcohol onto the display. Do not
use detergent or any type of solvent to clean the display.
