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

clearly.

HD Radio™ Information (If Available)
Note:HD Radio broadcasts are not available in all markets.
HD Radio technology is the digital evolution of analog AM/FM radio. Your
system has a special receiver which allows it to receive digital broadcasts
(where available) in addition to the analog broadcasts it already receives.
Digital broadcasts provide a better sound quality than analog broadcasts
with free, crystal clear audio and no static or distortion. For more
information, and a guide to available stations and programming, please
visit www.hdradio.com.
When this feature is enabled and you are tuned to a station broadcasting
HD Radio technology, you may notice the following indicators on your
screen:
HD) logoblinks when a digital station is being acquired and is
solid when digital audio is playing. When this logo is available,
you may also see Title and Artist fields on-screen.
Multicast indicatorappears in FM mode (only) if the current station is
broadcasting multiple digital broadcasts.
The numbers that are highlighted signify available digital channels where
new or different content is available. HD1 signifies the main programming
status and is available in analog and digital broadcasts. Any additional
multicast stations (HD2 through HD7) are only broadcast digitally.
When HD Radio broadcasts are active, you can access the following
functions:
When you select: You can:
ScanHear a brief sampling of all available stations.
This feature still works when HD Radio
reception is activated, although it does not
scan for HD2 through HD7 channels. You may
see the HD logo appear if the station has a
digital broadcast.
SeekHear the next strong radio station.
If the current station has multiple digital
broadcasts, the multicast indicator appears.
Press Seek repeatedly to advance through all
available broadcasts. If you are on the last
multicast channel, press Seek to advance to
the next strong station.

increments.
If the current station has multiple digital
broadcasts, the multicast indicator appears.
Press Tune repeatedly to advance through all
available broadcasts. If you are on the last
broadcast channel, press to advance to the
next frequency on the band.
Set PTY/AllSelect a category of music you would like to
search for and then choose to either seek or
scan for the stations.
Note:The system scans the frequency band
three times for the chosen program type. If
the program type is unavailable in your
reception range, the system returns to the
previous station.
MulticastAllows you to choose which HD radio
broadcast you would like to receive. When HD
Radio broadcasts are available, this button
appears if the selected station has more than
one digital broadcast. HD1 signifies the main
programming status and is available in analog
and digital broadcasts. Any additional
multicast stations (HD2 through HD7) are
digitally broadcast and can be accessed by
pressing Multicast.
To save a multicast
station as a presetWhen the channel is active on-screen, press
and hold a memory preset slot on the right of
the screen until the sound returns. There is a
brief mute, then the sound returns signifying
it was saved. When recalling an HD2 or HD3
memory preset, there is a mute before the
digital audio is played as the system must
once again acquire the digital signal.
As with any saved radio station, you cannot
access the saved station if your vehicle is
outside the station’s reception area.

HD Radio Reception and Station Troubleshooting
Potential Reception Issues
Reception areaIf you are listening to a multicast station and
you are on the fringe of the reception area,
the station may mute due to weak signal
strength.
If you are listening to HD1, the system
switches back to the analog broadcast until
the digital broadcast is available again.
However, if you are listening to any of the
possible HD2 through HD7 multicast
channels, the station mutes and stays muted
unless it is able to connect to the digital
signal again.
Station blendingWhen a station is first received (aside from
HD2 through HD7 multicast stations), the
system first plays the station in the analog
version and then, if the receiver verifies the
station is an HD Radio station, it shifts to the
digital version. Depending on the station
quality, you may hear a slight sound change
when the station changes from analog to
digital. This shift from analog to digital sound
or digital back to analog, is known as
blending.
In order to provide the best possible experience, a contact form has been
developed to report any station issues found while listening to a station
broadcasting with HD Radio technology. Every station is independently
owned and operated. These stations are responsible for ensuring all
audio streams and data fields are accurate. See the following chart for
potential station issues.
