Your vehicle is equipped with a
mobile media navigation system
which allows you to listen to, record
and save music, play DVDs (audio
and video) and to navigate the
vehicle.
Your system has a large range of features, yet is easy to use. The display
screen is the primary means for operating the system through the use of
its vertically tabbed menus, text screens and menu displays. Screen
selections are made by touching the desired selection on the touch
screen. The “tabs” along the left side of the screen represent the major
components of the system. The status bars at the top and bottom of the
screen will stay present for the majority of the time once the system is
turned on and ready for operation. The top status bar will contain menu
names, icons, and a clock. The lower status bar contains icons and
advisory messages. Please refer to Status bars in the System Overview
chapter for more information. Navigation guidance is shown on the
display touch screen and is supplemented with voice prompts.
DRIVING RESTRICTIONS
In order to prevent the navigation system from distracting you while
driving, access to certain functions are restricted when the vehicle is
traveling above 5 mph (8 km/h). At this time, only the Quick Destination
menu items are available for destination entry. Restricted functions
include:
• Travel Link subscriptions (if active) such as movie times, ski
conditions, sports scores and scrolling of the weather map
• Editing/Adding entries in the Address Book
• Editing/Adding entries in the Avoid Areas List
• Jukebox restrictions such as creating/editing playlists, sorting playlists,
editing track, artist and album names

When the vehicle begins to move, and the Select Route Screen is shown,
the highlighted route is automatically selected and guidance begins.
When the vehicle speed is reduced to 5 mph (8 km/h) or less, system
restrictions are lifted and you have full access to the system.

Voice recognition system overview
VOICE RECOGNITION
Your vehicle may be equipped with an advanced interactive Voice
Recognition (VR) system. This system allows you to perform many
operations such as operating the navigation, audio, phone (if equipped),
media, climate (if equipped), display and voice settings by “speaking”
certain commands. The system will respond with a series of audible
tones, prompts, questions and spoken confirmations depending on the
situation and the chosen level of dialogue interaction.
Feedback through audible tones
Your VR system will respond through various audible tones. You may
hear a tone at the following times:
• When you press VOICE or
• When you access the help feature.
• When the VR system does not understand your request
• When a VR session is completed successfully
• When a VR session is ended unsuccessfully
• When a speed dependent feature has been accessed
• When a new device is connected
The navigation system has five different audible tones that will play
depending on the circumstance.
• Initial: Sounds when you are entering a new mode.
• Positive: Sounds for a positive recognition or a successful VR session
completion.
• Negative: Sounds for a negative recognition, an unsuccessful VR
session, or when a speed dependent feature has been accessed.
• Listening: Sounds when the system is ready to listen for a command.
• Help: Sounds when you ask for ’Help’.
Confirmation prompts
Confirmation prompts are short questions asked by the system when the
system has not clearly understood your request or when there are
several possible responses to your request. For example, if you have
Confirmation prompts ON, the system may say, “Phone, is that correct?”.
The system will then listen for a “Yes” or “No” confirmation from you. If
you say “Yes”, the system will proceed. If you say “No”, the system will
ask you to say the command again. If you have Confirmation prompts
on your steering wheel controls.

Voice recognition system overview
OFF, the system may assume it understood your request or may ask you
to repeat your request. If the system is unsure of what was asked, it will
prompt you to try again or ask for help.
Note: Even with Confirmation prompts turned OFF, you may be asked to
confirm certain settings occasionally.
HOW TO USE VOICE COMMANDS WITH YOUR SYSTEM
Press
Recognition. Depending on the feedback setting, you will hear the
prompt, “Please say a command” followed by a tone, or you will hear a
tone, signaling that the system is ready to accept your command. Any
command spoken prior to the beep will not register with the system.
Speak the command clearly to ensure that the system is able to
