Voice Control Basics
Your vehicle has a voice control system
that allows hands-free operation of most
of the navigation system functions. You
can also control the audio system. The
voice control system uses the NAVI

steering wheel and a microphone near
the map lights on the ceiling.
NOTE:
While using the voice control system, all
of the speakers are muted.

This button activates the voice control
system. Press and release it when you
want to give a voice command. See
Voice Command Index on page137 for

always oriented with north facing
upward. You cannot change the
orientation.
