System Setup
Voice Control System
Your vehicle has a voice control system that allows hands-free operation of the 
navigation system functions.
The voice control sy
 stem uses the  and  buttons on the steering wheel and a 
microphone near the map lights on the ceiling.
For details of the   button,  button and microphone position, see the Owner's 
Manual.
Voice Recognition
To achieve optimum voice recognition wh en using the navigation voice control 
system:
• Make sure the correct screen is displa yed 
 for the voice command that you are 
using. The system recogniz es only certain commands.
Available navigation commands:
2 Navigation Commands  P. 136
• Close the windows and moonroof  *.
• Adjust the dashboard and side vents so air does not blow onto the microphone  on
  the ceiling.
• Speak in a clear, natural speaking voice without pausing between words.
• Reduce any background noise if possible.  The 
 system may misinterpret your 
command if more than one person  is speaking at the same time.
