Introduction
Read the following pages to
become familiar with the
features.
{Warning
Taking your eyes off the
road for too long or too
often while using any
infotainment feature can
cause a crash. You or others
could be injured or killed. Do
not give extended attention
to infotainment tasks while
driving. Limit your glances at
the vehicle displays and
focus your attention on
driving. Use voice commands
whenever possible.
The infotainment system has
built-in features intended to
help avoid distraction by
disabling some features when
driving. These features may
gray out when they are
unavailable. Many infotainment features are also available
through the instrument cluster
and steering wheel controls.
Before driving:
.Become familiar with the
operation, center stack
controls, steering wheel
controls, and infotainment
display.
.Set up the audio by
presetting favorite stations,
setting the tone, and
adjusting the speakers.
.Set up phone numbers in
advance so they can be
called easily by pressing a
single control or by using a
single voice command.
See Distracted Driving 0234.
Active Noise
Cancellation (ANC)
If equipped, ANC reduces
engine noise in the vehicle’s
interior. ANC requires the
factory-installed audio system,
radio, speakers, amplifier (if
equipped), induction system,
and exhaust system to work properly. Deactivation is
required by your dealer if
related aftermarket equipment
is installed.

or the session is terminated,

stops.

.Pression the steering

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.
