Features

Voice Control Operation

Your vehicle has a voice control system that allows hands-free operation.
The voice control system uses the

(Talk) button on the steering wheel and a

microphone near the map lights on the ceiling.

To achieve optimum voice recognition when using the voice control system:

•

Make sure the correct screen is displayed for the voice command that you are
using.
The system recognizes only certain commands.
Available voice commands:

Voice Portal Screen

P. 267

•

Close the windows and moonroof.

•

Adjust the dashboard and side vents so air does not blow onto the microphone
on the ceiling.

•

Speak clearly in a natural speaking voice without pausing between words.

•

Reduce any background noise if possible. The system may misinterpret your
command if more than one person is speaking at the same time.
