VOICE RECOGNITION To keep your eyes on the road and hands on the wheel, use voice commands for
hands-free calling, navigation, audio, and climate control. For a full list of commands,
say “Voice Help.”
How It Works
The voice control system uses the steering wheel buttons and the ceiling
microphone.
To reduce the potential for driver distraction, certain manual functions
may be inoperable or grayed out while the vehicle is moving. Voice
commands are always available.

your command.
Press the Talk button

for you to say a command.
When you press the Talk button from any of the main screens (NAV, PHONE,
INFO, AUDIO), the voice portal screen appears and the system gives you examples
of voice commands that can be used. For more examples, see page 26.
