Voice Recognition and Phone Contact Tips
The system may have difficulty understanding
some accents or uncommon names. Improve the
performance by making a few simple changes
to your phone contacts, listed below. To help
optimize the Bluetooth
®
Wireless Technology Voice
Recognition system, see other tips and reminders
under Quick Tips.
• Use full names (first and last names) vs. short
or single-syllable names (“John Smith” vs.
“Dad," “Smith Residence” vs. “Home”)
• Avoid using special characters, emojis or
hyphenated names (@, &, #, /, -, *, +, etc.)
• Avoid using acronyms (“In Case of Emergency”
vs. “ICE”) or words with all capital letters
• Spell words completely, no abbreviations
(“Doctor Smith” vs. “Dr. Smith”)
• The system may register or pair multiple Bluetooth
®
devices. See the Car Infotainment
System Quick Reference Guide for more information on setup and limitations
• Bluetooth

Music Streaming – If the Bluetooth
®
music is inaudible or too low, you may
need to turn up the volume on the connected phone
• When placing a call, speak in a natural, moderate tone, with clear pronunciation. The
system may have trouble recognizing commands if you speak too softly or too loudly
• Always wait for the beep before speaking any commands
• Close windows and sunroof and turn off A/C – open windows, sunroof, weather (wind/
rain), or an A/C fan operating at higher speeds can interfere with Voice Recognition
• Press the talk button and say “Help” to get a list of available commands
