Voice Recognition - Cadillac XT4 2023 Owner's Manual

188 Infotainment System

Voice Recognition

If equipped, voice recognition
allows for hands-free
operation within the
navigation, audio, phone, and
weather applications. This
feature can be started by
g
pressing on the steering
g
wheel or touching
infotainment display.
However, not all features
within these areas are
supported by voice
commands. Generally, only
complex tasks that require
multiple manual interactions to
complete are supported by
voice commands.
For example, tasks that take
more than one or two touches,
such as a song or artist to play
from a media device, would be
supported by voice
commands. Other tasks, like
adjusting the volume or
seeking up or down, are audio
features that are easily
performed by touching one or
two options, and are not
supported by voice
commands.
In general there are flexible
ways to speak commands for
completing the tasks.
If your language supports it,
try stating a one-shot
command, such as Directions
on the
to address <number, street,
city, state/province>. Do not
include the ZIP code while
stating the address during the
command. Another example of
a one-shot Destination Entry
command is, Directions to
Place of Interest at <hotel>. If
these commands do not work,
try saying, Take me to Place
of Interest or Find address
and the system will walk you
through by asking additional
questions.
Hybrid Speech
Recognition
If equipped, this feature helps
distinguish words by using
Internet-based information
along with the system s voice
recognition database. This
allows you to speak more
naturally when using voice
recognition.
Using Voice Recognition
Voice recognition becomes
available once the system has
been initialized. This begins
when the ignition is turned on.
Initialization may take a few
moments.
