For the best system performance, please adhere to the following:
•The interior of the vehicle needs to be as quiet as possible. Wind noise
from open windows, road vibrations, and radio volume may prevent
the system from correctly recognizing voice commands.
•Wait until the tone sounds after pressing the push to talk button
before speaking a command.
•Speak naturally without large pauses in between words.
•Please realize voice recognition performance is not 100% and varies by
user. The voice recognition system is meant to be a secondary
convenience control and if it doesn’t operate optimally, users can still
operate their navigation system via the touch screen and hard buttons.
To speak voice commands:
1. Push VOICE or
on the steering wheel. A tone will sound.
2. ‘Main Menu’ and
will appear in the status bar.
3. The system will speak the available voice commands and a tone will
sound.
4. ‘Listening’ and
will appear in the status bar and the system
waits for your response.
5. If the system is not confident that it recognized your voice command,
it will ask for a confirmation of yes or no.
6. If the system does not recognize or hear the your voice command, it will
say, “Sorry, please say....“andrepeat the available voice commands.
The voice failed icon
will be displayed in the status bar.
7. If the system does not recognize or hear your voice command a
second time, the system will say, “Sorry, please press the voice button
and try again” and the voice session is terminated.
8. Once confirmation / recognition takes place, the voice success
icon
is displayed. The system will speak the next level of available
commands, a tone will sound, and the appropriate voice menu name and
icon will be displayed.
9. If the voice session is not complete, the system will then speak the
next set of available voice commands, a tone will sound, and the system
will display ‘listening’
and again, waits for a response.
10. This sequence of events occurs until the voice recognition session is
complete.

LIMITED GPS RECEPTION
System performance may be adversely affected if GPS reception is
interrupted or interference occurs over a distance of several miles. The
following are possible causes for GPS reception being interrupted. If the
vehicle is:
•In multi-story parking garages
•In tunnels and under bridges
•Inside or in between buildings
•By forests or tree-lined avenues
•In heavy rain showers and thunderstorms
•In valleys and in mountainous regions
•Roads under cliffs
Ensure that you do not have any metal objects on the dashboard and
that if your windows are tinted, they use non-metal tinting instead of
metal oxide tinting. Both of these factors can also interrupt GPS
reception.
If the vehicle has been parked for a long period of time, the navigation
function may be temporarily unresponsive. The navigation system will
operate reliably again once GPS reception is available for a few minutes.
SYSTEM LIMITATIONS
Cold temperature start:When operating the system below 32° F
(0°C), the display screen requires a 2–3 minutes warm-up time to
achieve maximum brightness.
Other conditions:When calculating a route, the system doesn’t take
into consideration any of the following conditions:
•Traffic Conditions
•Weather Conditions
•Driving Habits
•Construction Zones
•New Roads
