Chevrolet Silverado 2014 Infotainment System page 85

Not all languages are supported
when using natural language
commands. If a naturally stated
command does not complete the
task, try the direct command
method.
For best results:
Listen for the prompt and wait
for the beep before saying a
command or reply.
Say Help or look at the screen
display for example commands.
A voice recognition system
prompt can be interrupted while
it is playing by pressing
For example, if the prompt
seems to be taking too long to
finish, to speak the command
without waiting for the prompt to
g
complete, press .
Speak the command naturally,
not too fast, not too slow. Use
direct commands without a lot of
extra words.
Usually Phone and Audio
commands can be spoken in a
single command.
For example, Call David Smith
at work, Play followed by the
artist or song name, or Tune
followed by the radio station
number.
Navigation destinations are too
complex for a single command.
First, state a command that
explains the type of destination
needed, such as I want
directions to an Address,
Navigate to an intersection, I
need to find a Place of Interest
g
.
or POI, or Directions to a
Contact. The system responds
with requesting more details.
After saying Place of Interest,
only major chains are available
by name. Chains are businesses
with at least 20 locations. For
other POIs, say the name of a
category like Restaurants,
Shopping Malls, or Hospitals.
Infotainment System
There is no need to memorize
specific command words. Direct
commands might be more clearly
understood by the system. An
example of a direct command would
be Call 555-1212. Examples of
these direct commands are
displayed on most of the screens
while a voice session is active.
If Phone or Phone Commands, is
stated, the system understands that
a phone call is requested and will
respond with questions until enough
details are gathered.
If the phone number has been
saved with a name and a place, the
direct command should include
both, for example Call David Smith
at work.
Using Voice Recognition for
List Options
When a list is displayed, a voice
prompt will ask to confirm or select
an option from that list. A selection
can be made by manually selecting
the item, or by speaking the line
number for the item to select.
