Voice Recognition can be used in one of two se-
lectable modes, Standard Mode (default) or Al-
ternate Command Mode.

able are always shown on the display and an-
nounced by the system. To perform operations,

prompts are turned off. Note that in this mode

dard Mode be used for the best recognition
