VOICE RECOGNITION
How It Works
The voice control system uses the steering wheel buttons and the ceiling
microphone.
To reduce the potential for driver distraction, certain manual functions
may be inoperable or grayed out while the vehicle is moving. Voice
commands are always available.

Voice Command Tips
• When the Talk button is pressed, all available voice commands are highlighted
in yellow. To bypass the system prompts, press and release the Talk button
again to say a command.
• To hear a list of available commands at any time, press and release the Talk button, then say “Voice Help.”
• Speak in a clear, natural voice.

To keep your eyes on the road and hands on the wheel, use the Talk button to
say voice commands to operate certain vehicle features.
When you press the Talk button from any of the main screens (NAV, PHONE,
INFO, AUDIO), the voice portal screen appears and the system gives you examples
of voice commands that can be used. For more examples, see page 22.
