voice command. Wait until the tone
and then speak. How to Speak :
Speak clearly in a
calm and natural voice.
Audio System
When using the in-vehicle Bluetooth
system, sound comes through the
vehicle's front audio system
speakers and overrides the audio
system. Use the audio system

memory for later calls. To prevent
missed calls, a minimum volume
level is used if the volume is turned
down too low.

or an extension cord can damage
the cord and may result in
overheating and fire.
