play [song | track | title |
file]
The system searches for specific album information from the
music indexed through the USB port.
play [album] [by [artist]]
This allows you to make your previous command more
specific. For example, if you asked to search and play all music
by a certain artist, you could then say, refine album and
choose a specific album from the list to view. If you then
select Play, the system only plays music from that specific
album.

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 voice commands.
• After pressing the voice command icon,
wait until after the tone sounds and
Listening appears before saying a voice
command. Any voice 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 command icon.
