The navigation system's voice recognition allows for hands-free operation of navigation and audio system features. Voice recognition can be used when the ignition is on or in ACC or when Retained Accessory Power (RAP) is active.

This feature only works if the map DVD is inserted. If you try to use voice recognition without the map DVD inserted, the system will display "Please insert the navigation map DVD to use the voice recognition feature."

To use voice recognition, do the following:

1. 
   
   

   Press this talk symbol hard key and release it when you hear a beep. The audio system, if on, will mute.

2. Clearly state one of the commands listed on the following pages. For example, say "FM1."
3. The system will tell you the command being implemented. For example, the system will say "FM1 Radio" and change the audio system to the FM1 source.

You may end voice recognition by not speaking any commands. After about five seconds of silence, the system will automatically cancel voice recognition.

At times, the system may not understand a spoken command. If this happens, try again. If a spoken command is not available, the system will provide feedback based on availability.

While using voice recognition, make sure to keep interior noise levels to a minimum. Otherwise, the system might not recognize voice commands.

The system will only recognize commands spoken in English.
