manual for information on other
available infotainment systems.

too long or too often while using
any infotainment feature can
cause a crash. You or others
could be injured or killed. Do not
give extended attention to
infotainment tasks while driving.
Limit your glances at the vehicle
displays and focus your attention
on driving. Use voice commands
whenever possible.

easily by pressing a single
button or by using a single voice
command if equipped with
Bluetooth phone capability.
