4. Replace the battery door and tighten thescrew.
Remove the batteries if the headphones will
not be used for a long time.
RSI Troubleshooting
No power : The ignition might not be on or
in ACC/ACCESSORY.
There is no sound from the headphones
with the indicator light on : If the batteries
are good, make sure the headphones are
programmed to the correct screen and on
the correct channel for the screen being
viewed.
Sometimes the wireless headphone audio
cuts out or buzzes : Check for obstructions,
low batteries, reception range, and
interference from cell phone towers or from
cellular telephone use in the vehicle. Check
that the headphones are on correctly using
the L (Left) and R (Right) on the
headphones. Check that the headphones are
positioned properly with the headband
across the top of the head.
Newer mobile phones and tablets emit
infrared light for features like face and iris
detection. This infrared light can interfere
with both the headphone operation. If your headphones experience static or dropouts,
place your mobile device away from the
rear seat displays.
I lost the headphones :
See your dealer for
assistance.
Video Distortion
Video distortion can occur when operating
cellular phones, scanners, CB radios, Global
Positioning Systems (GPS), two-way radios,
mobile faxes, or walkie talkies.
It might be necessary to turn off the video
player when operating one of these devices
in or near the vehicle.
Navigation
Using the Navigation System
If equipped, launch the Nav application by
touching the Nav icon on the Home Page or
on the shortcut tray near the bottom of the
infotainment display.
When the Nav application is launched for
the first time, a product walkthrough is
available. Use of the feature requires the
Terms and Conditions and the Privacy statement to be confirmed. If available and
signed into a profile, it is also suggested to
enable and confirm Predictive Navigation.
Predictive Navigation (If Equipped)
If Predictive Navigation is available and
confirmed, this feature learns preferences by
remembering where the vehicle has been.
It uses the locations and navigation history
to personalize routes and results.
Predictive Navigation may learn elements
such as:
.Personalized routes based on preferred
streets.
.Search results that provide best matches
at the top of the list.
.Predictive traffic.
.Local map content updating.
Predictive Navigation can also be enabled or

Infotainment System 177
Once voice recognition is started, both the
infotainment display and instrument cluster
show the selections and visual dialog
content. These displays can be turned on or
off in the Tutorial Mode underSettings
0 187.
There are three voice prompt modes
supported:
.Informative verbal prompts: This type of
prompt will provide more information
regarding the supported actions.
.Short prompts: This type of prompt will
provide simple instructions about what
can be stated.
.Auto informative prompts: This type of
prompt plays during the first few speech
sessions, then automatically switches to
the short prompt after some experience
has been gained through using the
system.
If a command is not spoken, the voice
recognition system says a help prompt.
Prompts and Infotainment Displays
While a voice recognition session is active,
there may be corresponding options
showing on the displays. A selection can be
made by manually touching the option,
or by speaking the number for the option to select. Manual interaction in the voice
recognition session is permitted. Interaction
during a voice session may be completed
entirely using voice commands while some
manual commands may expedite a task. If a
selection is made using a manual control,
the voice recognition dialog will progress in
the same way as if the selection were made
using a voice command. Once the system
completes the task, or the session is
terminated, the voice recognition dialog
stops.
An example of this type of manual
intervention is touching an entry of a
displayed number list instead of speaking
the number associated with the entry
desired.
Canceling Voice Recognition
.Touch or say
“Cancel”or“Exit” to
terminate the voice recognition session
and show the display where voice
recognition was initiated.
.Pression the steering wheel controls
to terminate the voice recognition session
and show the display where voice
recognition was initiated. 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.”

Driving Information
Driving for Better Fuel Economy
Driving habits can affect fuel mileage. Here
are some driving tips to get the best fuel
economy possible:
.Set the climate controls to the desired
temperature after the engine is started,
or turn them off when not required.
.Avoid fast starts and accelerate smoothly.
.Brake gradually and avoid abrupt stops.

of time.
.When road and weather conditions are
appropriate, use cruise control.
.Always follow posted speed limits or
drive more slowly when conditions
require.
.Keep vehicle tires properly inflated.
.Combine several trips into a single trip.
.Replace the vehicle's tires with the same
TPC Spec number molded into the tire's
sidewall near the size.
.Follow recommended scheduled

Distracted Driving
Distraction comes in many forms and can
take your focus from the task of driving.
Exercise good judgment and do not let other
activities divert your attention away from
the road. Many local governments have
enacted laws regarding driver distraction.
Become familiar with the local laws in
your area.
To avoid distracted driving, keep your eyes
on the road, keep your hands on the
steering wheel, and focus your attention on
driving.

situations. Use a hands-free method to
place or receive necessary phone calls.

or look up information on phones or
other electronic devices.
.Designate a front seat passenger to
handle potential distractions.
.Become familiar with vehicle features
before driving, such as programming
favorite radio stations and adjusting
climate control and seat settings. Program
all trip information into any navigation
device prior to driving.
