Phonebook entries:Once theBluetoothsystem connects to your
phone, it will attempt to automatically download your Phonebook entries
so that you can easily access them later. The maximum number of

Voice recognition
YourBluetoothsystem is equipped with a voice recognition system
which allows you to perform some operations by speaking certain
commands to the system. The system will respond with a series of beeps,
confirmations or questions when necessary. At any time, you can say,
“Cancel” if you do not wish to continue, or “Help” for a list of possible
voice commands in your current mode. Speak the command clearly to
ensure that the system is able to recognize and perform the desired
function.
For best system performance:
•After pressing VOICE on the
stalk, wait until the beep is heard
before speaking a command. Any
command spoken prior to this will
not register with the system.
•Speak naturally without large
pauses in between words.
•Ensure that the interior of the
vehicle is as quiet as possible.
Wind noise from open windows and road vibrations may prevent the
system from correctly recognizing spoken voice commands.
At any time, you can say these commands:
•Phone•Radio
•CD player•Cancel
•External device•Help
External device:Auxiliary input jack
Note:This system is language specific. If you would like the system to
operate in another language, please contact your authorized dealer.
