. - tapping the Google Gemini symbol in the center display
.
The system will indicate that it is active and listening through a brief audible signal2 and a graphic acknowledgment in the center display.
Voice control examples
After the system starts, you can give instructions and ask questions in natural speech. Here are some examples of how to use voice control.
- "Navigate home" – Get route guidance to the address stored in Maps as the home address for the Google account used to log in.
- "Read my messages" – Reads text messages sent to your phone out loud.
- "Raise the temperature" – Raise the temperature in the passenger compartment.
