The system should respond correctly to all voice commands without difficulty. If problems are encountered, follow the solutions given in
this guide for the appropriate error.
Where the solutions are listed by number, try each solution in turn, starting with number one, until the problem is resolved. Symptom/error message Solution
Displays “ COMMAND NOT RECOGNIZED ” or the
system fails to interpret the command correctly. 1. Ensure that the command format is valid, see “ Command List ” (P.4-121).
2. Speak clearly without pausing between words and at a level appropriate to the ambient noise level.
3. Ensure that the ambient noise level is not excessive, for example, windows open or defrost on.
NOTE:
If it is too noisy to use the phone, it is likely that voice commands will not be recognized.
4. If optional words of the command have been omitted, then the command should be tried with these in place.
The system consistently selects the wrong voicetag in
the phonebook. 1. Ensure that the voicetag requested matches what was originally stored. (See “ Bluetooth ®
Hands-Free Phone
System (models with navigation system) ” (P.4-90).)
2. Replace one of the voicetags being confused with a different voicetag.
