To change the audio volume of the system, turn the volume knob while the voice is speak-ing. It is possible to use other buttons whilevoice commands are being given.

Briefly press
and say "Cancel".
Press and hold the steering wheel key- pad's voice command button
until

The system willfirst ask three times for a response and if theresponse is still not given, voice control will beautomatically canceled. To speed up communication and skip prompts from the system, press the voice control but- ton
on the steering wheel keypad. This
will interrupt the system's response and you can say the next command.
Voice command examples

Smith cellular".

Commands/phrasesThe following commands can usually be usedin any situation:

command in the current dialog.
"
Cancel" - cancels the dialog. 19
"
Help" - initiates a help dialog. The sys-
tem responds with commands that can be used in the current situation, an instruc-tion or an example.
