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 nish,
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.
