SYSTEM OPERATING TIPS
If the Voice Recognition system does not recognize
your voice commands:



1.

Be sure to wait for the tone/beep before speaking
a command.



2.

Reduce background noise as much as possible

by closing the windows and moonroof.



3.

Make sure there are no other conversations in

the car at the same time.



4.

Lower HVAC blower fan speed and point vents
away from the ceiling microphone.



5.

Speak naturally. Speaking too fast, too slow,

too soft, or too loud makes voice recognition more difficult.



6.

Confirm that the correct voice commands are being used. Glance at the sc\
reen to see the
currently available commands.
