PHONE CONTROLS
You can use the phone buttons on your steering wheel to answer,
reject or end a call.
HELPFUL HINTS
• When using voice commands, make sure the interior of your
vehicle is as quiet as possible. Wind noise from open windows
and road vibrations may prevent the system from correctly
recognizing spoken commands.
• Before giving a voice command, wait for the system
announcement to finish, followed by a single tone. Any
command spoken before this does not register with the system.
• Speak naturally, without long pauses between words.
• You can interrupt the system at any time while it is speaking
by pressing the voice button. You can cancel a voice session by
pressing and holding the voice button.
PHONE MENU
Through your phone menu, you can access your call history,
phone book, text messages, phone settings and system settings.
Press the PHONE button to enter the phone menu. Then you can
scroll through the menu and select the feature you want to view.
SYNC MOBILE APPS
AppLink enables voice and steering wheel control of certain
smartphone apps. Once an app is running through AppLink,
you can control the main features of the app through voice
commands and steering wheel controls.
Note: You must pair and connect your smartphone to SYNC to
access AppLink.
USING SYNC TO ACCESS DIGITAL MEDIA
Using the system, you can access media from your iPod, Bluetooth
device and most USB drives. SYNC also supports audio formats,
such as MP3, WMA, WAV and ACC.
MEDIA SOURCES
Press the AUX or MEDIA button to view your sources. Use the
directional arrows and OK button to select your source. You can
also use the steering wheel audio controls.
