Voice activated controls

Can someone please give me a crash course on using my voice activated controls? What can I do with them, and how do I do it?

Yes you may call me lazy, but I don't have any desire to go through tens of manual pages if someone could just please give me the cliff notes. I have a feeling the whole thing is much simpler than it would appear from poring over the user's manual.

Thanks in advance ....

never used it. I think it’s for calling features only. Would be nice to be able to say “set temperature to 75 degrees” but I doubt it will work

OK, but even for calling/texting it would be useful as long as you don't have to take your eyes off the road ...

Speaking of which: great invention, this automated braking (alert and actual braking). The alert works very well, albeit a wee bit conservative, I've experienced it a couple of times so far - but not the actual automatic braking.

press the talk button on the right side of the steering wheel and observe the center screen. It will walk you through it.
