(For example, if you would like to say 500,
“five zero zero” can be used, but “five
hundred” cannot.

Phone numbers
Speak phone numbers according to the
following examples:
.1-800-662-6200
—“ Dial one eight zero zero six six two
six two zero zero.”
Note 1: For the best voice recognition
phone dialing results, say phone numbers
as single digits.
Note 2: You cannot say 555-6000 as “five
five five six thousands” .
Note 3: When speaking a house number,
speak the number “0”as“zero”. If the
letter “o (Oh)” is included in the house
number, it will not be recognized as the
number “0 (zero)” even if you speak “oh”
instead of “zero”. Please speak “zero”for
the number “0 (zero)”,“oh”for the letter
“o (oh)”.
Send digits using dial tone:
. Press the TALK
switch during a
phone call.

be provided with the following gui-
dance: "Please say the digits to dial".
. After guidance, say the digits of the

troller, the selected digits will be sent.

TROUBLESHOOTING GUIDE
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 messageSolution
The system fails to interpret the command correctly. 1. Ensure that the command format is valid, see“Command List”(P.4-115).
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.4-84).)
2. Replace one of the voicetags being confused with a different voicetag.
