recommend against the use of any
hand-held device while driving and
encourage the use of voice-operated

Accessing and Adjusting Modes Through Your Vehicle Information
Display The display is located on the right side
of your instrument cluster (A). You
can use your steering wheel controls
to view and make minor adjustments
to active modes without taking your
hands off the wheel. For example:
•
In Entertainment mode, you can
view what is now playing, change
the audio source, select memory
presets and make some
adjustments.
• In Phone mode, you can accept or
reject an incoming call. •
If your vehicle is equipped with
Navigation, you can view the
current route or activate a route.
• In Efficiency Leaves mode, you can
learn how your vehicle informs you
of your driving efficiency. Press OK
to exit the menu. Use the OK and arrow buttons on the
right side of your steering wheel to
scroll through the available modes:

Navigation
You can make selections from the
menu by using the OK button. The
selection menu expands and different
options appear.
• Press the up and down arrows to
scroll through the modes.
• Press the right arrow to enter the
mode.
• Press the left or right arrows to
make adjustments within the

press the right arrow to go into the
Compass menu, you can see the
compass graphic. The compass
displays the direction in which the
vehicle is traveling, not true direction
(for example, if the vehicle is traveling
west, the middle of the compass
graphic displays west; north displays
to the left of west though its true
direction is to the right of west). Using Voice Recognition
This system helps you control many
features using voice commands. This
allows you to keep your hands on the
wheel and focus on what is in front of
you. The system provides feedback
through audible tones, prompts,
questions and spoken confirmations
depending on the situation and the
chosen level of interaction (voice
settings).
The system also asks short questions
(confirmation prompts) when it is not
sure of your request or when there are
multiple possible responses to your
request.
When using voice commands, words
and icons may appear in the lower left
status bar indicating the status of the
voice session (such as Listening,
Success, Failed, Paused or Try Again).
How to Use Voice Commands with
Your System
Press the voice icon. After the
tone, speak your command
clearly.
These commands can be said at any
time during a voice session
