to adjust the voice settings:
• Interaction mode advanced •Interaction mode standard
• Confirmation prompts on •Confirmation prompts off
• Media candidate lists on •Media candidate lists off
• Phone candidate lists on •Phone candidate lists off
Interaction mode standard/advanced: Standard interaction mode
provides more detailed interaction and guidance while the advanced
mode has less audible interaction and more tone prompts.

questions asked by the system when the system has not clearly heard or
understood your request. Note:Even with Confirmation prompts turned
OFF, you may be asked to confirm settings occasionally.
Phone/media candidate lists on/off: Candidate lists are a list of
possible results from your voice commands. These occur when SYNC has
equal confidence of several possible results from your voice command.
For voice commands available in SYNC phone mode, refer to Voice
commands in phone mode in the Phone chapter.
For voice commands available in SYNC media mode, refer to Voice
commands in media mode in the Media chapter.
