system from correctly recognizing the voice
commands.
● Wait until the tone sounds before speaking a
command.

way to speak numbers when giving voice
commands. Refer to the following examples.
General rule:
Only single digits 0 (zero) to 9 can be used. For
example, if speaking 500, “five zero zero” can be
used, but “five hundred” cannot.

Examples:
1-800-662-6200
“One eight zero zero six six two six two zero
zero” Improving Recognition of Phone numbers:
Recognition of phone numbers can be improved
by saying the phone number in 3 groups of
numbers. For example, to call 800-662-6200,
say “Eight Zero Zero” first, and the system will
then ask to speak the next three digits. Then, say
“Six Six Two”. After recognition, the system will
then ask to speak the last 4 digits. Say, “Six Two
Zero Zero”. Using this method of phone digit en-
try can improve recognition performance.INFO:
For best recognition, speak “zero” for the num-
ber “0” and “oh” for the letter “o”.
