Really hmmm Maybe I should try checking with the dealer, that's what I thought at first but I just manually added the names myself.

On a side note....NC, you must be in Sac-town with 916 attached to your screen name? I'm from El Dorado Hills. Hopefully someday I'll relocate back out there
Yupz, ah ic El Dorado Hills ain't to far from me, like 30min drive ahha. It's nice up there.

Afterward you say save or save contact and you would have to say name for it and it will save. try that and let me know how it goes
I think you are right. If I say call name. It will ask me to repeat ten times and then shut off. I remember the salesman entering a number manually then using the voice command feature to recall the number and it worked. I just forgot how to enter the names and numbers manually.

He's right, you have to manually tell the system the name and number. Like I said, I tried it for a short time and now I just use the BT with my cell. Crap, now you guys go me wanting to try voice command again - lol.

When it doubt, say "help" and the system will list off commands. On non-Nav cars, at least pre-2010 models, you can't voice dial from the phone's address list. You can set up a number (not sure how many) voice dialing numbers manually (stored in the BT module) using the "Save Name" command:

1. {Save name}.
2. Speak the name. The spoken length of the names in the phone book must not exceed approx. 2 seconds.
3. Speak the phone number after being requested to do so by the system.
4. To store the phone number:{Save}.

Once you have stored a name entry, you can dial it using "Dial Name" command, then speaking the name after the prompt.

And just to say what needs to be said (and has been said many times before)... this is all in the manual.
