Infotainment System
Voice Recognition
Voice recognition allows for
hands-free operation within the
navigation, audio, phone, and
weather applications. This feature
can be started by pressing either
the
g
button on the steering wheel
or the voice recognition icon on the
touchscreen display.
However, not all features within
these areas are supported by voice
commands. Generally, only complex
tasks which require multiple manual
interactions to complete are
supported by voice commands.
For example, tasks that take more
than one or two button presses such
as selecting a song or artist to play
from a media device would be
supported by voice commands.
Other tasks, like adjusting the
volume or seeking up or down are
audio features that are easily
performed by pressing one or two
buttons, and are not supported by
voice commands.
In general there are flexible ways to
speak commands for completing the
tasks. Most of them, except
destination entry and voice keypad,
can be completed in a single
command. If the task takes more
than one command to complete, the
first command would be to indicate
the kind of task that is to be
performed, like
“
Navigation
Destination Entry.
”
The system will
reply prompting dialog to help speak
the necessary information. For
example, if a destination for route
guidance is needed, say
“
Navigation
”
or
“
Destination Entry.
”
Voice recognition can be used when
the ignition is on or when Retained
Accessory Power (RAP) is active.
See
“
Retained Accessory Power
RAP
”
in the owner manual.
