14 Navigation System
Using the Voice Control System
You should use the voice control system
as much as possible, and consider
manual entry using the
Interface Dial
as a backup method.
Most of the system’s functions can be
controlled by voice commands activated
with the
TALK button. To control the
navigation system by voice:
• Press and release the
TALK button. A
guidance prompt will be played, and
a pop-up voice icon (
) will appear
in the upper left corner of the screen.
• Wait for the beep.
• Give a voice command. (Voice
commands that the system recognizes
are highlighted.)
Once the microphone picks up your
command, the system changes the
display in response to the command.
Press the
TALK button to get a
guidance prompt for the next command.
NOTE:
To interrupt guidance prompts, press
the
TALK button again. Wait for the
beep, and give a command.
If the system does not understand a
command or you wait too long to give a
command, it responds with “Pardon? No
comment was heard. Please press the
Talk button and say a command.” If the
system cannot perform a command or
the command is not appropriate for the
screen you are on, a beep will sound.
You can find out which voice
commands are available for a particular
screen by saying “Help.” The system
will display and read the list of available
commands to you. (When
Help is
grayed out, this feature cannot be used.)
When you give a command, the system
either performs the command or
transitions to the next step in a task.
NOTE:
Guidance prompts can be turned off.
If you hear a prompt such as “Please use
the
Interface Dial to...” or “Please
choose an area with the
Interface Dial,”
the system is asking for input that
cannot be performed using the voice
control system.
Improving Voice Recognition
To achieve optimum voice recognition
when using the voice control system, the
following guidelines should be
followed:
NOTE:
Make sure the correct screen is
displayed for the voice command that
you are using. See Voice Command
• It is best if the windows and
moonroof are closed. If they are open,
speak a little louder to overcome the
wind noises.
