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, phone, and
climate control sy stem. The voice
control system uses the TALK and
BACK buttons on the steering wheel
and a microphone near the map lights on
the ceiling.
NOTE:
While using the voice control system,
the audio system is muted.
TALK button
This button activates the voice control
system. Press and release it when you
want to give a voice command. See
Voice Command Index on page157 for
a list of voice commands.
BACK button
This button has the same function as the

previous screen. When the previous
screen appears, the system replays the
last prompt.
When you press this button during voice

Getting Started
• Adjust the dashboard and side vents
so air does not blow against the
microphone on the ceiling.
• If more than one person is speaking at the same time, the system may
misinterpret your command.
• Give a voice command in a clear, natural speaking voice without
pausing between words.
• Try to reduce any background noise.
• If you are still having trouble with the voice control sy stem, refer to Voice
Help on the INFO screen ( Main
Info.) or say “Help” while the
icon is displayed on the top left of the
screen.
NOTE:
The voice control system can only be
used in the driver’s seat because the
microphone unit removes noises from
the front passenger’s side.Selecting an Item (Button)

On most screens, there are items that
can be selected (like buttons with titles
such as OK or Return ). To select an
item on any screen, do one of the
following:

all selectable items on the screen,
including some listed items, are
recognized by the voice control
system.
• Move the highlighting to the desired item with the Interface Dial or its
knob , then push in on the Interface
Dial .
Tip:
If items are grayed out, this means that
they cannot be selected.
Selecting an Item in a List

following:
• Rotate the Interface Dial knob to
scroll one item at a time.
• Use the voice control system to scroll page by page. For example, to scroll
up, say “Up” or “Previous.” To scroll
down, say “Next” or “Down.”
If you cannot find the desired name, or
have made an error, return to the
previous screen by pressing the
CANCEL or the BACK button on the
steering wheel.
To select the desired item in the list, do
one of the following:
• Use the voice control system, and say the item number of the desired item.
