Voice Recognition
Voice recognition allows for
hands-free operation within the
audio and phone applications. This
feature can be started by pressing
either the
J/0button on the
steering wheel or the voice
recognition icon on the touch screen
display.
However, not all features within
these areas are supported by voice
commands. Generally, only complex
tasks that require multiple manual
interactions to complete are
supported by voice commands.
For example, tasks that take more
than one or two button presses such
as selecting a song or artist to play
from a media device would be
supported by voice commands.
Other tasks, like adjusting the
volume or seeking up or down are
audio features that are easily
performed by pressing one or two
buttons, and are not supported by
voice commands. Most voice commands, except for
voice keypad, can be completed in
a single command. If the task takes
more than one command to
complete, the first command would
be to indicate the kind of task that is
to be performed. The system will
reply, prompting dialog to help
speak the necessary information.
Voice recognition can be used when
the ignition is on or when Retained
Accessory Power (RAP) is active.
See
“Retained Accessory Power
(RAP)” in the owner manual.
Using Voice Recognition
Voice recognition becomes available
once the system has been
initialized. Initialization takes place
when the ignition is turned on. This
may take a few moments.
1. Press
J/0on the steering
wheel control to activate voice
recognition, or press the voice recognition icon on the
infotainment touch screen on the
radio.
.If voice recognition is
started, the lists and
controls are verbal and the
visual displays through the
radio. The commands may
then be touched or spoken.
2. The audio system mutes and the system plays a prompt followed
by a beep.
3. Wait until after the beep completes, then clearly speak
one of the commands described
in this section.
Press
J/0to interrupt any
voice recognition. This will
terminate the prompt. The beep
is heard immediately, and a
command can be stated without
having to wait.

supported actions for that voice
recognition session.
.Short prompts: The short
prompts provide simple setup
and action commands.

changed in the Voice Recognition
Menu from the Settings icon on the
Home Page.
If a command is not heard during a
short period of time, the voice
recognition process times out. Prompts and Screen Displays
The system prompts and display
screens will adjust to reflect the
commands during the voice

While voice recognition is active,
there may be corresponding buttons
and screen displays available to

some of the functions can be
manually done. Pressing any of the

function that was initiated through
voice recognition will terminate the
session. If the manual functions are

Helpful Hints for Speaking
Commands
The voice recognition application
can usually understand direct
commands of the application
and task.

An example of a direct command
would be,“Phone.”The system may
answer with a prompt of, “Say Call
followed by the number or contact
name.” The direct command for this
task would be, “Call 555-1212.”
If the phone number has been
saved as a name or place, the direct
command would be, “Call David’s
office number.”
Directed Dialog
A directed dialog is an interaction
between a person speaking the
command and the system prompting
for specific information necessary to
complete the task. Many times the
system may repeat what the person
has stated as a command. This is
done as a confirmation to make
sure the command is understood.

recognition button to launch an
audio voice recognition session.
