About two weeks ago, I purchased an ES 350 which is a UL, panoramic roof, ML, etc. (I like it)

I am trying to figure out the list of voice commands that the car will understand. e.g. I am hungry and the car will show the available resturants in the vicinity (this was demonstrated by the sales man before I bought the car)

I have quickly browsed through the booklets (owners manual) which came with the car and the lexus owners resource site on the internet without any avail.

I then contacted the service department where I purchased the vehicle and they didn't have any such list. They asked me to contact the sales person who sold me the car but he is off until the end of March. I then called Lexus 1-800 number and was connected to an operator who politely said "we don't have any such list and lexus doesn't make any voice command list at all and asked me to contact the service department of the dealership when I gave him the example of "I am hungry" as noted above. This is indeed a case in point of going in circles.

Anyways, I am quite sure that there has to be a list of voice commands which are recognized by this vehicle. I also do own a '04 Acura TL with navigation which came with more than a 100 voice commands and the list of those commands were provided as a separate booklet.

I guess that Lexus may have such a list or may be not. Can someone help me with this.

Thanks in advance

I got this off this or another lexus board like a year ago ---so take it for what it is (dunno if compete or not)
