What Can I Say?
To access the available voice commands for the current session, do one
of the following:
•During a voice session, press the Help icon (?) in the lower left status
bar of the screen.
•Say, “What can I say?” for an on-screen listing of the possible voice
commands associated with your current voice session.
•Press the voice icon. After the tone, say, “Help” to hear a list of
possible voice commands.
Helpful Hints
•Make sure the interior of your vehicle is as quiet as possible. Wind
noise from open windows and road vibrations may prevent the system
from correctly recognizing spoken commands.
•After pressing the voice icon, wait until after the tone sounds and
Listening appears before saying a command. Any command spoken
prior to this does not register with the system.
•Speak naturally, without long pauses between words.
•At any time, you can interrupt the system while it is speaking by
pressing the voice icon.

Voice Settings
Voice settings allow you to customize the level of system interaction,
help and feedback. The system defaults to standard interaction that uses
candidate lists and confirmation prompts as these provide the highest
level of guidance and feedback.
Interaction Mode:Novice mode provides detailed interaction and
guidance while the advanced mode has less audible interaction and more
tone prompts.
Confirmation Prompts:The system uses these short questions to
confirm your voice request. If turned off, the system simply makes a best
guess as to what you requested. The system may still occasionally ask
you to confirm settings.

Phone/Media Candidate Lists:Candidate lists are lists of possible
results from your voice commands. The system creates these lists when
it has the same confidence level of several options based on your voice
command.
To access these settings using the touchscreen:
1. Press theSettingsicon >Settings>Voice Control.
2. Select from:
•Interaction Mode
•Confirmation Prompts
•Media Candidate Lists
•Phone Candidate Lists
•Voice Control Volume.
To access these settings using voice commands:
Press the voice icon. Wait for the prompt “Please say a
command”. Another tone sounds to let you know the system is
listening.
Using Voice Commands with the Touchscreen Options
Your voice system has a dual mode feature which allows you to switch
between using voice commands and making on-screen selections. This is
most often available when using navigation.
Buttons outlined in blue indicate selections that are part of the dual
mode feature. For example, if while you are in a voice session rather
than saying the command “Enter Street Name” to change the field, you
can press Street and the voice session does not end. Instead, the voice
system changes to the Street field and asks you to say the street name.
You cannot use the buttons not outlined in blue as voice commands. If
they are touched during a voice session, the voice session ends.
For example, you can choose from the following on the Navigation home
screen:
•My Home
•Favorites
•Previous Destinations
•Point of Interest (POI)
•Emergency
•Street Address
•Intersection
•Cancel Route.
