Basic Navigation Operation

A real-time navigation system uses GPS and a map database to show your current
location and help guide you to a desired destination. You can operate the system
using voice commands or the system controls.
To reduce the potential for driver distraction, certain manual functions may
be inoperable or grayed out while the vehicle is moving. Voice commands are
always available.
Steering Wheel Controls
Use the steering wheel controls to give voice commands.
Talk button: Press to say navigation commands
from the Voice Portal screen.
Back button: Press to cancel a command or
operation.
Talk Button Tips
• The system recognizes only the commands listed on page 146.
• When using the Talk button, wait for the beep before saying a command.
• To bypass the system prompts, simply press the Talk button again to say your
command.
• Speak in a clear, natural voice.
• Reduce all background noise.
• Adjust the dashboard and side vents away from the microphone in the ceiling.
• Close the windows and moonroof.
WARNING
Using the navigation system while driving can take your attention away from
the road, causing a crash in which you could be seriously injured or killed.
Only operate system controls when the conditions permit you to safely do so.
