Voice Recognition; Voice Recognition Commands - GMC Acadia 15919282 Owner's Manual

Voice Recognition

The navigation system's voice recognition allows for
hands-free operation of navigation and audio system
features. Voice recognition can be used when the
ignition is on or in ACC/ACCESSORY or when Retained
Accessory Power (RAP) is active.
The radio commands feature only works if the map DVD
®
is inserted. Bluetooth and OnStar
work without the map DVD inserted. See Bluetooth
®
and OnStar in the index of the vehicle's owner manual.
The system may not hear you or may hear the incorrect
word with the windows open or the convertible top down
due to background noise.
To use radio voice recognition:
1. Push and hold the SRCE button on the steering
wheel controls, if equipped, or the AUDIO button
on the radio faceplate. A beep will be heard and the
audio system mutes.
2. Clearly state one of the commands listed on the
following pages. For example, say "Radio Select
FM" or just say, "Radio FM".
3. The system tells you the command being
implemented. For example, the system says "Radio
Select FM" and changes the audio system to the FM
source.

You may end voice recognition by not speaking any
commands or by pressing the SRCE again. After about
five seconds of silence, the system automatically
cancels voice recognition.
At times, the system may not understand a spoken
command. If this happens, try again. If a spoken
command is not available, the system provides feedback
based on availability.
While using voice recognition, make sure to keep
interior noise levels to a minimum. Otherwise, the
system might not recognize voice commands.
The system recognizes commands spoken in English,
Spanish, or French depending on the global language
setting in the vehicle. See the vehicle's owner
manual for details about changing languages.
