the voice recognition dialog
stops.
An example of this type of
manual intervention is
touching an entry of a
displayed number list instead
of speaking the number
associated with the entry
desired.
Canceling Voice
Recognition

“Exit” to terminate the voice
recognition session and
show the display where
voice recognition was
initiated.
.Pression the steering
wheel controls to terminate
the voice recognition
session and show the display

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.

246 Driving and Operating
.Try to avoid sudden
steering, acceleration,
or braking, including
reducing vehicle speed by
shifting to a lower gear. Any
sudden changes could cause
the tires to slide.
Remember: Antilock brakes
help avoid only the
braking skid.
Track Events and
Competitive Driving
(V-Series and
V-Series Blackwing)
Before any track event, there
are three features that should
be turned off:
.Automatic Emergency
Braking (AEB). See
Automatic Emergency
Braking (AEB) 0349.
.Lane Keep Assist. See Lane
Keep Assist (LKA) 0356.
.Adaptive Cruise Control. See
Adaptive Cruise Control
(Advanced) 0305.
{Danger
High-performance features
are intended for use only on
closed tracks by
experienced and qualified
drivers and should not be
used on public roads.
High-speed driving,
aggressive cornering, hard
braking, and other
high-performance driving
can be dangerous. Improper
driver inputs for the
conditions may result in loss
of control of the vehicle,
which could injure or kill you
or others. Always drive
safely.
Track events and competitive
driving may affect the vehicle
warranty. See the warranty
manual before using the
vehicle for competitive driving.
{Warning
Some of the adjustments
and procedures specified in
this section may require
specialized skill, training, and
equipment. Failure to
perform these procedures
properly could cause
malfunction, potentially
resulting in death, personal
injury, or damage to the
vehicle or property. Do not
attempt to perform these
adjustments or procedures
unless properly qualified.
{Warning
Prior to each track event
and again before returning
to public roads, tighten the
wheel nuts with a torque
wrench to the proper torque
specification. Wheel nuts
that are improperly or
incorrectly tightened can (Continued)

.Be disabled when the
coolant temperature is
below 0 °C (32 °F).
Drive Systems
All-Wheel Drive
Vehicles with this feature
always send engine power to
all four wheels. It is fully
automatic, and adjusts itself as
needed for road conditions.
Brakes
Electric Brake Boost
Vehicles equipped with
electric brake boost have
hydraulic brake circuits that
are electronically controlled
when the brake pedal is
applied during normal
operation. The system
performs routine tests and
turns off within a few minutes
after the vehicle is turned off.
Noise may be heard during
this time. If the brake pedal is
pressed during the tests orwhen the electric brake boost
system is off, a noticeable
change in pedal force and
travel may be felt. This is
normal.
Antilock Brake
System (ABS)
The Antilock Brake System
(ABS) helps prevent a braking
skid and maintain steering
while braking hard.
If there is a problem with ABS,
this warning light stays on.
See Antilock Brake System
(ABS) Warning Light
0128.
ABS does not change the time
needed to get a foot on the
brake pedal and does not
always decrease stopping
distance. If you get too close
to the vehicle ahead, there will not be enough time to apply
the brakes if that vehicle
suddenly slows or stops.
Always leave enough room
ahead to stop, even with ABS.
Using ABS
Do not pump the brakes. Just
hold the brake pedal down
firmly. Hearing and feeling ABS
operate is normal.
Braking in Emergencies
ABS allows steering and
braking at the same time. In
many emergencies, steering
can help even more than
braking.
