Using the Touch-sensitive Controls on Your System

•Use your bare finger to touch the center of a touch-control graphic.
Touching off-center of the graphic may cause a nearby control to turn
on or off.
•Make sure your hands are clean and dry.
•Since the touchscreen operates based on the touch of a finger, you
may have trouble using it if you are wearing gloves.
•Metal and other conductive material should be kept away from the
surface of the touchscreen as this may cause electronic interference
(i.e., control activation).
Cleaning the Touchscreen Display
Clean the display with a clean, soft cloth, such as one used for cleaning
glasses. If dirt or finger prints are still visible, apply a small amount of
alcohol to the cloth. Do not pour or spray alcohol onto the display. Do
not use detergent or any type of solvent to clean the display.

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 also appear in the
lower left status bar indicating the status of the voice session (i.e.,
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.
These commands can be said at any time
“Audio” “Radio”
“CD” “SYNC”
*
“Disc” “Tutorial”
“Display mode” “User profile”
“DVD” “Video CD”
“Jukebox” “Voice settings”
“Line in” “Help”
“Navigation”
*If equipped.
To access a list of all available voice commands, press the I hard button.
Select the Help tab on the touchscreen, then the Voice Commands tab
and choose the desired category.

Helpful Hints
•Make sure the interior of the 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 which
uses candidate lists and confirmation prompts as these provide the
highest level of guidance and feedback.
Interaction Mode:Novice mode provides more detailed interaction and
guidance while the advanced mode has less audible interaction and more
tone prompts.
Confirmation Prompts:Confirmation prompts are short questions the
system asks when it is not sure of your request or when there are
multiple possible responses to your request. If turned off, the system
simply makes a best guess as to what you requested and you may still
occasionally be asked to confirm settings.
