T
h
e route to the destination might not be
shown if there are new roads, if roads have
recently changed, or if certain roads are not
listed in Maps.
To recalibrate the vehicle's position on the map,
park with the vehicle running for two to five
minutes, until the vehicle position updates.
Make sure the vehicle is parked in alocation
that is safe and has aclear view of the sky and
away from large obstructions.
Voice Recognition
If equipped, the vehicle's built-in Assistant
allows for hands-free use of media and
messaging, navigation and climate control
functionality in the vehicle. To activate, quickly
press and release g on the steering wheel,
touch Google Assistant on the infotainment
home screen, or use the wake up words “Hey
Google” or “OK Google.” Google Assistant must
be set as the default assistant for steering
wheel and wake word activation to work.
However, not all features within these areas are
supported by voice commands and requires the
user to have avalid data subscription plan or
connected to Wi-Fi in order to use some of the
Google Assistant features.
Using Voice Recognition
Vo
ice recognition becomes available once the
system is initialized. This begins when the
vehicle is turned on. Initialization may take
afew moments.
1.
Quickly press and release g on the steering
wheel controls, touch Google Assistant on
the infotainment home screen, or use the
wake up words “Hey Google” or “OK
Google” to activate voice recognition.
Google Assistant must be set as the Default
Assistant for the g and the wake word
options to work.
2. Clearly speak one of the commands
described later in this section.
Canceling Google Assistant
•
Press c on the steering wheel controls
to cancel the Google Assistant request.
Helpful Hints for Speaking Commands
Voice recognition identifies commands that
are naturally stated in sentence form, or
direct commands that state the application
and the task.
For best results:
•
Sp
eak the command naturally, not too fast,
not too slow.
•
Use direct commands without alot of
extra words. For example, “Call <name>
at work,” “Play” followed by the artist or
song name, or “Play” followed by the radio
station number.
Direct commands are more clearly understood
by the system. An example of adirect
command is “Dial <number>.”
If acell phone number was saved with aname
and a place, the direct command should include
both. For example “Call <name> at work.”
Voice Recognition for the Radio
When voice is started, the voice recognition
commands for AM, FM, SiriusXM (if equipped),
and media apps (if supported) are available.
“Play <AM frequency> AM”: Tune to the radio
station frequency identified in the command
(like “nine fifty”).
“Play <FM frequency> FM”: Tune to the radio
station frequency identified in the command
(like “one oh one point one”).
