Warning
Taking your eyes off the road for too
long or too often while using any
infotainment feature can cause a crash.
You or others could be injured or killed.
Do not give extended attention to
infotainment tasks while driving. Limit
your glances at the vehicle displays and
focus your attention on driving. Use voice
commands whenever possible.
The infotainment system has built-in
features intended to help avoid distraction
by disabling some features when driving.
These features may gray out when they are
unavailable. Many infotainment features are
also available through the instrument cluster
and steering wheel controls.
Before driving:
- Become familiar with the operation,
center stack controls, steering wheel
controls, and infotainment display.
- Set up the audio by presetting favorite
stations, setting the tone, and adjusting
the speakers.
- Set up phone numbers in advance so they
can be called easily by pressing a single
control or by using a single voice
command.
