FORD 2013 Taurus v.3 - Manual (Page 446)

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.
“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” to hear a list of
possible voice commands.
