circumstances can affect the navigation
system's ability to determine the accurate
position of the vehicle.

.Signals are obstructed by tall buildings,
trees, large trucks, or a tunnel.

Google Assistant on the Home screen, or by
using the wake up words“Hey Google”or
“OK Google.”
However, not all features within these areas
are supported by voice commands and
requires the user to have a valid data
subscription plan in order to use some of
the Google Assistant features.
Using Voice Recognition
Voice recognition becomes available once
the system is initialized. This begins when
the vehicle is turned on. Initialization may
take a few moments.
1. Press
gon the steering wheel controls,
touch Google Assistant on the Home
screen, or use the wake up words “Hey
Google” or“OK Google” to activate voice
recognition. Google Assistant must be set
as the Default Assistant for the
gand
the wake word options to work.

Canceling Google Assistant
.Presscon the steering wheel controls
to cancel the Google Assistant request.
Helpful Hints for Speaking Commands
Voice recognition identifies commands that
are naturally stated in sentence form,
or direct commands that state the
application and the task.
For best results:
.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 “Play”followed by the
radio station number.
Direct commands are more clearly
understood by the system. An example of a
direct command is “Dial .”
If a cell phone number was saved with a
name and a place, the direct command
should include both. For example “Call
at work.”
Voice Recognition for the Radio
When voice is started, the voice recognition
commands for AM, FM, SiriusXM (if
equipped), and media apps (if supported) are
available. “Play AM”
:Tune to the
radio station frequency identified in the
command (like “nine fifty”).
“Play FM” :Tune to the
radio station frequency identified in the
command (like “one oh one point one”).
“Play channel on
SiriusXM” :Tune to the SiriusXM radio
station channel number identified in the
command. This command may require an
online connection.
“Play on Sirius XM” :
Tune to the SiriusXM radio station channel
name identified in the command. This
command may require an online connection.
