Voice Recognition
If equipped, voice recognition allows
for hands-free operation within the
navigation, audio, phone, and
weather applications. This feature
can be started by pressing
gon the
steering wheel or by touching
gon
the touchscreen 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.
In general there are flexible ways to
speak commands for completing the
tasks. Most of them, except destination entry and voice keypad,
can be completed in a single
command. If the task takes more
than one command to complete, the
first command should be to indicate
the kind of task to be performed, like
“Navigation Destination Entry.”
The
system replies with prompts that
lead you through a dialog to enter
the necessary information. For
example, if a destination for route
guidance is needed, say
“Navigation” or“Destination Entry.”
If your language supports it, try
stating a One Shot command, such
as “Navigate to Address one two
three Main Street, Lansing
Michigan.” This type of destination
entry command is supported in
some languages. Another example
of a One-Shot Destination Entry
command is, “Navigate to Place of
Interest –Hotels.” If these
commands do not work, try saying,
“Navigate to Place of Interest” or
“Navigate to Address” and the
system will do for the rest. 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
If equipped, voice recognition
becomes available once the system
has been initialized. This begins
when the ignition is turned on.
Initialization may take a few
moments.
1. Press
gon the steering wheel
control to activate voice
recognition, or touch
gon the
infotainment touchscreen on
the infotainment display.
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.

.Say “Help” or look at the screen
display for example commands.
. Voice recognition system prompt
can be interrupted while it is
playing by pressing
gagain.
For example, if the prompt
seems to be taking too long to
finish, to speak the command
without waiting for the prompt to
complete, press
gagain and
wait for the beep.
. Speak the command naturally,
not too fast, not too slow. Use
direct commands without a lot of
extra words.
. Usually Phone and Audio
commands can be spoken in a
single command.
For example, “Call Dave Smith
at work,” “Play” followed by the
artist or song name, or “Tune”
followed by the radio station
number.
. Navigation destinations are too
complex for a single command.
First, state a command that
explains the type of destination needed, such as I want
directions to an
“Address,”
“Navigate to an intersection,” “I
need to find a Place of Interest
or POI,” or“Directions to a
Contact.” The system responds
with requesting more details.
After saying “Place of Interest,”
only major chains are available
by name. Chains are businesses
with at least 20 locations. For
other POIs, say the name of a
category like “Restaurants,”
“Shopping Malls,” or“Hospitals.”
Some languages support complete
destination requests in a single
command. If your language
supports it, try stating a One Shot
command such as, “Navigate to
Address one two three Main Street,
Lansing Michigan.” Another
example of a One-Shot Destination
Entry command is, “Navigate to
Place of Interest –Hotels.” If these
commands do not work, try saying
“Navigate to Place of Interest” or
“Navigate to Address” and the
system will come back and ask for
details of your destination. Most languages do not support
natural language commands in
sentence form. For those
languages, use direct commands
like the examples shown on the
display.
There is no need to memorize
specific command words. Direct
commands might be more clearly
understood by the system. An
example of a direct command would
be
“Call 555-1212.” Examples of
these direct commands are
displayed on most of the screens
while a voice session is active.
If “Phone” or“Phone Commands,” is
stated, the system understands that
a phone call is requested and will
respond with questions until enough
details are gathered.
If the phone number has been
saved with a name and a place, the
direct command should include
both, for example “Call Dave Smith
at work.”

Using Voice Recognition for
List Options
If equipped, when a list is displayed,
a voice prompt will ask to confirm or
select an option from that list.
A selection can be made by
manually selecting the item, or by
speaking the line number for the
item to select.
When a screen contains a list, there
may be options that are available
but not displayed. The list on a
voice recognition screen functions
the same as a list on other screens.
Scrolling or flinging can be used to
help display other entries from
the list.
Manually scrolling or paging the list
on a screen during a voice
recognition session suspends the
current voice recognition event and
plays the prompt“Make your
selection from the list using the
manual controls, touch the Back
screen button to try again.”
If manual selection takes more than
15 seconds, the session terminates
and prompts that it has timed out. The screen returns back to the
screen where voice recognition was
initiated.
The Back Command
Say
“Back” or touch
0to go to
the previous screen.
If in voice recognition, and “Back”is
stated all the way through to the
initial screen, then “Back”is stated
one more time, the voice recognition
session will cancel.
Help
Say “Help” on any voice recognition
screen and the help prompt for the
screen is played. Additionally, a
pop-up displays a text version of the
help prompt. Depending on how
voice recognition was initiated, the
Help pop-up will either display on
the instrument cluster or the
infotainment touchscreen. Touch the
Dismiss button to make the pop-up
go away. Pressing
gwhile the help prompt is
playing will terminate the prompt
and a beep will be heard. Doing this
will stop the help prompt so that a
voice command can be used.
Voice Recognition for the
Radio
If equipped, all audio screens have
a voice recognition button (
g) to
launch audio voice recognition.
If the voice button is touched in a
radio screen, the voice commands
for radio and media features are
available.
“Switch to AM” :Switch bands to
AM and tune to the last AM radio
station.
“Switch to FM” :Switch bands to
FM and tune to the last FM radio
station.
“Tune to AM” :
Tune to the radio station whose
frequency is identified in the
command (like “nine fifty”).

“Switch Phone” :Select a different

“Voice Keypad” :Begin a dialog to
enter special numbers like
international numbers. The numbers
can be entered in groups of digits
with each group of digits being
repeated back by the system. If the
group of digits is not correct, the
command “Delete”will remove the
last group of digits and allow them
to be re-entered. Once the entire
number has been entered, the
command “Call”will start dialing the
number.
“Voice Mail” :Initiate a call to voice
mail numbers.Voice Pass-Thru
If equipped, voice pass-thru/Siri®
Eyes Free allows access to the
voice recognition commands on the
cell phone, for example, Siri or
Voice Command. See the cell
phone manufacturer's user guide to
see whether the cell phone supports
this feature. To activate the phone
voice recognition system, press and
hold
gon the steering wheel for a
few seconds.
This enhances the normal use of
Siri. Siri allows access to text
messages, calendars, and audio
sources such as iTunes.
