Natural Language Commands
Most languages do not support
natural language commands in
sentence form. For those languages,
use direct commands like the
examples shown on the display.
Helpful Hints for Speaking
Commands
Voice recognition can understand
commands that are naturally stated in
sentence form or direct commands
that state the application and
the task.
For best results:
.Listen for the prompt before saying
a command or reply.
.Speak the command naturally, not
too fast, not too slow.
.Use direct commands without a lot
of extra words. For example,“Call
at work,” “Play ”followed by
the artist or song name, or “Tune”
followed by the radio station
number.
.Navigation destinations can be
made in a single command using
keywords. A few examples are:
“I want directions to an address,”
“I need to find a place of interest or
(POI),” or“Find contact.”
The system responds by requesting
more details. For other POIs, say the
name of a category like
“Restaurants,” “Shopping Malls,” or
“Hospitals.”
.Navigating to a destination outside
of the current country takes more
than one command. The first
command is to tell the system
where the navigation will take place,
such as an Address, Intersection,
POI, or Contact. If Address or
Intersection is selected, the second
command is to say, “Change
Country.” Once the system responds,
say the country before saying the
rest of the address and/or
intersection.
If POI is asked for, say “Change
Location,” then“Change Country.” Direct commands might be more
clearly understood by the system. An
example of a direct command would
be
“Call .” Examples of these
direct commands are displayed on
most of the screens while a voice
session is active. If “Phone”or “Phone
Commands,” is spoken, the system
understands that a phone call is
requested and will respond with
questions until enough details are
gathered to make a call.
If a cell phone number has been saved
with a name and a place, the direct
command should include both, for
example “Call at work.”
Using Voice Recognition for List
Options
When a list is displayed, a voice
prompt will ask to confirm or select
an option from that list.
When a display 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 displays. Scrolling or
flinging can be used to help display
other entries from the list.

Manually scrolling or paging the list
on a display during a voice
recognition session suspends the
current voice recognition event and
plays the prompt“Please select
manually or touch the Back icon on
the infotainment display to try again.”
If manual selection takes more than
15 seconds, the session terminates
and prompts that it has timed out.
The display returns to the display
where voice recognition was initiated.
The Back Command
Say “Back” or touch the Back icon on
the infotainment display to go to the
previous menu.
If in voice recognition, and “Back”is

spoken one more time, the voice
recognition session will cancel.

Say “Help ”on any voice recognition
display and the help prompt for the
display is played.Voice Recognition for the Radio

The Bluetooth-capable system can
interact with many mobile devices,

hands-free mode.
.Sharing of the device’s address book
or contact list with the vehicle.
To minimize driver distraction, before
driving, and with the vehicle parked:
.Become familiar with the features of
the mobile device. Organize the
phone book and contact lists clearly
and delete duplicate or rarely used
entries. If possible, program speed
dial or other shortcuts.
.Review the controls and operation
of the infotainment system.
.Pair mobile device(s) to the vehicle.
The system may not work with all
mobile devices. See “Pairing”later in
this section. Vehicles with a Bluetooth system can
use a Bluetooth-capable mobile device
with a Hands-Free Profile to make and
receive phone calls. The infotainment
system and voice recognition are used
to control the system. The system can
be used while the ignition is on or in
ACC/ACCESSORY. The range of the
Bluetooth system can be up to 9.1 m
(30 ft). Not all mobile devices support
all functions and not all mobile
devices work with the Bluetooth
system. See my.cadillac.com for more
information about compatible mobile
devices.
