Helpful Hints

Make sure the interior of the
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
before 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 which uses
candidate lists and confirmation
prompts as these provide the highest
level of guidance and feedback.
•
Interaction Mode: Novice mode
provides more detailed interaction
and guidance while the advanced
mode has less audible interaction
and more tone prompts.
• Confirmation Prompts:
These
are short questions the system
asks when it is not sure of your
request or when there are multiple
possible responses to your request.
If turned off, the system simply
makes a best guess as to what you
requested and you may still
occasionally be asked to confirm
settings.
• Phone and 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 the Settings icon, Settings,
then Voice Control.
2. Select from the following:
• Interaction Mode
• Confirmation Prompts
• Media Candidate Lists
• Phone Candidate Lists
• Voice Control Volume.
To access these settings using voice
commands:
1. Press the voice icon; after the tone
sounds, the system says "Please
say a command". Another tone
sounds to let you know the system
is listening.
2. Say any of the following commands: Voice Settings Using Voice Commands

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.
On-screen buttons are outlined in blue
to indicate the 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. The buttons not
outlined in blue cannot be used as
voice commands; if they are touched
during a voice session, the voice
session is canceled. 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.
Some of the voice commands that
are available while viewing this screen
are: Destination
"Destination my home"
"Destination street address" "Destination favorites"
