LINCOLN MKZ HYBRID 2014 Owners Manual

Accessing and Adjusting Modes Through Your Right Vehicle Information
Display (If Equipped)
The display is located on the right side of
your instrument cluster (A). You can use
your steering wheel controls to view and
make minor adjustments to active modes
without taking your hands off the wheel.
For example:
•
In Entertainment mode, you can view
what is now playing, change the audio
source, select memory presets and
make some adjustments.
• In Phone mode, you can accept or
reject an incoming call.
• If your vehicle is equipped with
Navigation, you can view the current
route or activate a route. •
In climate mode, the driver side
temperature can bet set as well as fan
speed.
• In Efficiency Leaves mode, you can
learn how your vehicle informs you of
your driving efficiency. Press OK to exit
the menu. Use the OK and arrow buttons on the right
side of your steering wheel to scroll
through the available modes:

The selection menu expands and different
options appear.
•
Press the up and down arrows to scroll
through the modes.
• Press the right arrow to enter the
mode.
• Press the left or right arrows to make
adjustments within the chosen mode.
• Press OK to confirm your selection.
Note: If your vehicle is not equipped with
Navigation, Compass appears in the
display instead of Navigation. If you press
the right arrow to go into the Compass
menu, you can see the compass graphic.
The compass displays the direction in
which the vehicle is traveling, not true
direction (for example, if the vehicle is
traveling west, the middle of the compass
graphic displays west; north displays to
the left of west though its true direction is
to the right of west).
Using Voice Recognition
This system helps you control many
features using voice commands. This
allows you to keep your hands on the
wheel and focus on what is in front of you.
The system provides feedback through
audible tones, prompts, questions and
spoken confirmations depending on the
situation and the chosen level of
interaction (voice settings).
The system also asks short questions
(confirmation prompts) when it is not sure
of your request or when there are multiple
possible responses to your request. When using voice commands, words and
icons may appear in the lower left status
bar indicating the status of the voice
session (such as Listening, Success, Failed,
Paused or Try Again).
How to Use Voice Commands with Your
System Press the voice icon. After the
tone, speak your command
clearly.
These commands can be said at any time
during a voice session
"Cancel""Exit"
"Go back"
"List of commands" "Main menu""Next page"
"Previous page"
"What can I say?" "Help"

What Can I Say?
To access the available voice commands
for the current session, do one of the
following:
•
During a voice session, press the help
icon (?) in the lower left status bar of
the screen.
• Say, "What can I say?" for an on-screen
listing of the possible voice commands
associated with your current voice
session.
• Press the voice icon. After the tone,
say, "Help" for an audible list of
possible voice commands.
Helpful Hints
• Make sure the interior of your vehicle
is as quiet as possible. Wind noise from
open windows and road vibrations may
prevent the system from correctly
recognizing spoken commands.
• After pressing the voice icon, wait until
after the tone sounds and Listening
appears before saying a command.
Any command spoken before this does
not register with the system.
• Speak naturally, without long pauses
between words.
• At any time, you can interrupt the
system while it is speaking by pressing
the voice icon.
Accessing a List of Available Commands
• If you use the touchscreen, press the
Settings icon >
Help > Voice
Command List.

press the voice icon. After the tone,
speak your command clearly. Available voice commands

Voice Settings
Voice settings allow you to customize the
level of system interaction, help and
feedback. The system defaults to standard
interaction that uses candidate lists and
confirmation prompts as these provide the
highest level of guidance and feedback.
•
Interaction Mode: Novice mode
provides detailed interaction and
guidance while the advanced mode
has less audible interaction and more
tone prompts.
• Confirmation Prompts:
The system
uses these short questions to confirm
your voice request. If turned off, the
system simply makes a best guess as
to what you requested. The system
may still occasionally ask you to
confirm settings.
• Phone and Media Candidate Lists:
Candidate lists are lists of possible
results from your voice commands. The
system creates these lists when it has
the same confidence level of several
options based on your voice
command.
To access these settings using the
touchscreen:
1. Press the Settings icon >
Settings >
then Voice Control.
2. Select from the following:
• Interaction Mode
• Confirmation Prompts
• Media Candidate Lists
• Phone Candidate Lists
• Voice Control Volume. To access these settings using voice
commands:
1. Press the voice icon. Wait for the
prompt "Please say a command".
Another tone sounds to let you know
the system is listening.
2. Say any of the following commands: Voice settings using voice commands
"Confirmation prompts off ""Confirmation prompts on"
"Interaction mode advanced" "Interaction mode novice"
"Media candidate lists off " "Media candidate lists on"
"Phone candidate lists off " "Phone candidate lists on" "Help"
Using Voice Commands with the
Touchscreen Options
Your voice system has a dual mode
feature which allows you to switch
between using voice commands and
making on-screen selections. This is
available only when the system displays
a list of candidates generated during a
voice session. For example, when entering
in a street address or trying to call a
contact from the phone you paired to the
system.
