consider manual entry using the
as a ‘‘back-up’’
method of entry. If the system does not understand a

‘‘Pardon,’’ ‘‘Please repeat,’’ or ‘‘Would
you say again.’’ If the system cannot
perf orm a command or the

voice commands are available on a

read the list of commands to you.When you speak a command, the
system generally either repeats the
command as a confirmation or asks
you f or f urther inf ormation. If you do

should be followed:
Make sure the correct screen
is displayed for the voice command
th at you are using. See Voice
Command Index on page . Close the windows and the
moonroof .
The f an speed will be
automatically adjusted to low.
If the system cannot recognize
your command because of
background noise, speak louder.

other than yours, the system may
not interpret your voice
commands correctly.

something in your mouth, or your
voice is either too high or too
husky, the system may
misinterpret your voice commands.

the voice control system, ref er to
on the
main menu screen.

A/C vents does not interf ere with
the system microphone in the
