Voice Recognition and Phone Contact Tips
To help optimize the Bluetooth® Wireless
Technology Voice Recognition system, below
are some tips and reminders . Improve the
performance by making a few simple changes
to your phone contacts:
•Use full names (first and last names) vs .
short or single-syllable names (“John Smith”
vs . “Dad," “Smith Residence” vs . “Home”)
•Avoid using special characters, emojis or
hyphenated names (@, &, #, /, -, *, +, etc . )
•Avoid using acronyms (“In Case of
Emergency” vs . “ICE”) or words with all
capital letters
•Spell words completely, no abbreviations
(“Doctor Smith” vs . “Dr . Smith”)
The system may have difficulty understanding
some accents or uncommon names . Below are
other tips to optimize using the voice recognition .
• When placing a call, speak in a natural, moderate tone, with clear pronunciation . The system may have trouble recognizing commands if you speak too softly or too loudly
• Always wait for the beep before speaking any commands
• Close windows and sunroof and turn off A /C – open windows, sunroof, weather (wind/rain), or an A /C fan operating at higher speeds can interfere with Voice Recognition
• Press the talk button and say “Help” to get a list of available commands

When following a vehicle, the system can automatically adjust your cruise speed based on the vehicle in front . It will even bring the vehicle to a complete stop if necessary . If the vehicle detected stops for more than 3 seconds, the system will disable .
QUICK TIPS
REMINDERS:
•
The SCC is also canceled when the driver’s door is opened, gear shift is changed out of D (Drive), EPB is activated and various other conditions . See Owner’s Manual for other conditions
•CRUISE button must be pressed ON in order to turn SCC ON
•
SCC system is activated when ignition is turned on . Speed will need to be reset when ignition is cycled
•
The distance settings are approximations and may vary depending on factory settings at the time . See Owner’s Manual for more information
•
If the SCC system is left on, it can be activated inadvertently . Keep the system off when not in use to avoid setting a speed which the driver is not aware of
The SCC system is a supplemental system and is not a substitute for safe driving. It is the responsibility of the driver to always check the speed and distance to the vehicle ahead.
