USING VOICE RECOGNITION
This system helps you control many features using voice commands. This
allows you to keep your hands on the wheel and focus on what is in
front of you. The system provides feedback through audible tones,
prompts, questions and spoken confirmations depending on the situation
and the chosen level of interaction (voice settings).
The system also asks short questions (confirmation prompts) when it is
not sure of your request or when there are multiple possible responses
to your request.
When using voice commands, words and icons may appear in the lower
left status bar indicating the status of the voice session (such as
Listening, Success, Failed, Paused or Try Again).
How to Use Voice Commands with Your System
Press the voice icon. After the tone, speak your command
clearly.

What Can I Say?
To access the available voice commands for the current session, do one
of the following:
•During a voice session, press the Help icon (?) in the lower left status
bar of the screen.
•Say, “What can I say?” for an on-screen listing of the possible voice
commands associated with your current voice session.
•Press the voice icon. After the tone, say, “Help” to hear a list of
possible voice commands.
Helpful Hints
•Make sure the interior of your vehicle is as quiet as possible. Wind
noise from open windows and road vibrations may prevent the system
from correctly recognizing spoken commands.
•After pressing the voice icon, wait until after the tone sounds and
Listening appears before saying a command. Any command spoken
prior to this does not register with the system.
•Speak naturally, without long pauses between words.
•At any time, you can interrupt the system while it is speaking by
pressing the voice icon.

Voice Settings
Voice settings allow you to customize the level of system interaction,
help and feedback. The system defaults to standard interaction that uses
candidate lists and confirmation prompts as these provide the highest
level of guidance and feedback.
Interaction Mode:Novice mode provides detailed interaction and
guidance while the advanced mode has less audible interaction and more
tone prompts.

available only when the system displays a list of candidates generated
during a voice session. For example, when entering in a street address or
trying to call a contact from the phone you paired to the system.
