wheel LINCOLN MKZ 2014 Owners Manual

Keep User's Guide in vehicle: When
kept in the vehicle, the User's Guide
will be a ready reference for you and
other users unfamiliar with the
Windows Automotive-based system.
Please make certain that before using
the system for the first time, all
persons have access to the User's
Guide and read its instructions and
safety information carefully.
WARNING
Operating certain parts of this
system while driving can distract
your attention away from the road,
and possibly cause an accident or
other serious consequences. Do not
change system settings or enter data
non-verbally (using your hands) while
driving. Stop the vehicle in a safe and
legal manner before attempting these
operations. This is important since
while setting up or changing some
functions you might be required to
distract your attention away from the
road and remove your hands from the
wheel.
General Operation
Voice Command Control: Functions
within the Windows
Automotive-based system may be
accomplished using only voice
commands. Using voice commands
while driving allows you to operate
the system without removing your
hands from the wheel. Prolonged Views of Screen: Do not
access any function requiring a
prolonged view of the screen while
you are driving. Pull over in a safe and
legal manner before attempting to
access a function of the system
requiring prolonged attention. Even
occasional short scans to the screen
may be hazardous if your attention
has been diverted away from your
driving task at a critical time.
Volume Setting: Do not raise the
volume excessively. Keep the volume
at a level where you can still hear
outside traffic and emergency signals
while driving. Driving while unable to
hear these sounds could cause an
accident.
Use of Speech Recognition
Functions: Speech recognition
software is inherently a statistical
process which is subject to errors. It is
your responsibility to monitor any
speech recognition functions included
in the system and address any errors.
Navigation Features: Any navigation
features included in the system are
intended to provide turn by turn
instructions to get you to a desired
destination. Please make certain all
persons using this system carefully
read and follow instructions and
safety information fully.
