Problems with Route Guidance
Inappropriate route guidance can occur
under one or more of the following
conditions:
.The turn was not made on the road
indicated.
.Route guidance might not be available
when using automatic rerouting for the
next right or left turn.
.The route might not be changed when
using automatic rerouting.
.There is no route guidance when turning
at an intersection.

any other regulation which may be given.
.Some routes might not be searched.
.The route to the destination might not be
shown if there are new roads, if roads
have recently changed, or if certain roads
are not listed in Maps.To recalibrate the vehicle's position on the
map, park with the vehicle running for two

updates. Make sure the vehicle is parked in
a location that is safe and has a clear view
of the sky and away from large
obstructions.
Voice Recognition
If equipped, Google Assistant allows for
hands-free use of media and messaging,
navigation and climate control functionality
in the vehicle. This feature can be started by
pressing
gon the steering wheel, touching
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 or connected to WiFi 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. Pressgon 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.
2. Clearly speak one of the commands described later in this section.
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

Cruise Control
{
Warning
Cruise control can be dangerous where
you cannot drive safely at a steady
speed. Do not use cruise control on
winding roads or in heavy traffic.
Cruise control can be dangerous on
slippery roads. On such roads, fast
changes in tire traction can cause
excessive wheel slip, and you could lose
control. Do not use cruise control on
slippery roads.
With cruise control, a speed of about
40 km/h (25 mph) or more can be
maintained without keeping your foot on
the accelerator. Cruise control does not work
at speeds below about 40 km/h (25 mph).
If the Traction Control System (TCS) or
StabiliTrak/Electronic Stability Control (ESC)
begins to limit wheel spin while using cruise
control, the cruise control automatically
disengages. See Traction Control/Electronic
Stability Control. If a collision alert occurs
when cruise control is activated, cruise
control is disengaged. See Forward Collision Alert (FCA) System. When road conditions
allow cruise control to be safely used, it can
be turned back on.
Cruise control will disengage if either TCS or
StabiliTrak/ESC is turned off.
If the brakes are applied, cruise control
disengages.
J:
Press to turn the system on and off.
A white indicator appears in the instrument
cluster when cruise is turned on.
RES+ : If there is a set speed in memory,
move the thumbwheel up briefly to resume
that speed or press and hold to accelerate.
If the cruise control is already active, use to
increase vehicle speed. To increase speed by
1 km/h (1 mph), press the thumbwheel up to

with an offset above or below the identified
speed limit using the steering wheel
controls. See "Turning Speed Limiter On and
Off" later in this section.
{Warning
In Auto mode, Speed Limiter may not
