Features
Voice Control Operation
Your vehicle has a voice control syst em that allows hands-free operation.
The voice control system uses the (tal k) and (back) buttons on the steering
wheel and a microphone near the map lights on the ceiling.
To achieve optimum voice recognition when using the voice control system:
• Make sure the correct screen is displa yed for the voice command that you are
using.
The system recognizes only certain commands. Available voice commands.
2Voice Portal Screen P. 320
•Close the windows and moonroof*.
• Adjust the dashboard and side vents so air does not blow onto the microphone
on the ceiling.
• Speak clearly in a clear, natural speaking voice without pausing between words.
• Reduce any background noise if possibl e. The system may misinterpret your
command if more than one person is speaking at the same time.
■Voice Recognition

When you press the button, a helpful prompt asks
what you would like to do. Press and release the
button again to bypass th is prompt and give a
command.
