VOICE COMMAND — IF EQUIPPED
Voice Command System Operation
This Voice Command system al-
lows you to control your AM, FM
radio, disc player, and a memo
recorder.
NOTE:
Take care to speak into the Voice Interface
System as calmly and normally as possible.
The ability of the Voice Interface System to
recognize user voice commands may be
negatively affected by rapid speaking or a
raised voice level.
WARNING!
Any voice commanded system should be
used only in safe driving conditions following
local laws. All attention should be kept on the
roadway ahead. Failure to do so may result in
a collision causing serious injury or death. When you press the Voice Command
button, you will hear a beep. The beep is your
signal to give a command.
NOTE:
If you do not say a command within a few
seconds, the system will present you with a
list of options.
If you ever wish to interrupt the system while it
lists options, press the Voice Command
button, listen for the beep, and say your com-
mand.
Pressing the Voice Command
button
while the system is speaking is known as
“barging in.” The system will be interrupted,
and after the beep, you can add or change
commands. This will become helpful once you
start to learn the options.
NOTE:
At any time, you can say the words “Can-
cel”, “Help” or “Main Menu”. These commands are universal and can be
used from any menu. All other commands can
be used depending upon the active applica-
tion.
When using this system, you should speak
clearly and at a normal speaking volume.
The system will best recognize your speech if
the windows are closed, and the heater/air
conditioning fan is set to low.
At any point, if the system does not recognize
one of your commands, you will be prompted to
repeat it.
To hear the first available Menu, press the Voice
Command
button and say “Help” or
“Main Menu”.
CommandsThe Voice Command system understands two
types of commands. Universal commands are
available at all times. Local commands are
available if the supported radio mode is active.
