Vehicle Personalization (w/Voice Recognition)
Vehicle Personalization (w/Voice Recognition)
The navigation system's voice recognition allows for hands-free operation of navigation, phone, audio system, climate controls, windows, OnStar(R), and memory features. Voice recognition can be used when the ignition is ON or when retained accessory power (RAP) is active. Refer to Definition of Caution, Notice, and Important or to Navigation System Description and Operation. To use voice recognition, do the following:
1. Press the talk symbol steering wheel control and release it when you hear a beep. The audio system, if ON, will mute. When you are in the navigation screens, the system will display a symbol while the voice recognition is active.
2. Clearly state one of the commands listed on the following pages. When the system recognizes the command, it will either perform the function, ask you to confirm your choice by clearly stating "yes or no", or issue an error message such as "System does not recognize this command" or direct you to "Please start speaking after the beep". You may also get a message saying, "System is checking the disc. Please wait." if the system is not yet ready. To cancel a command or if the system talk back does not match your verbal command, press and hold the talk symbol button. The system will reply, "System will cancel the voice recognition."
If you experience difficulty with the system recognizing a command, try saying it more softly and wait for a few seconds after the beep, or you may just try saying it again. This system is able to recognize commands in 5 different languages. The system will only recognize commands based on the language selected. To use the voice recognition system, the map digital video disk (DVD) must be loaded.
