GS450h_OM_OM30D52U_(U)Due to natural language speech recognition technology, this system
enables recognition of a command when spoken naturally. However, the
system cannot recognize every variation of each command. In some situa-
tions, it is possible to omit the command for the procedure and directly
state the desired operation. Not all voice commands are displayed in the
short cut menu.
■Expression examples for each function
*: Say the desired artist name or album name in the place of the “<>”.
Commands that are not displayed in the “Shortcut Menu” screen can be
accessed from the main menu.
For example, to make an “International Call”, say “Main menu” while the “Short-
cut Menu” screen is being displayed. Then
say “Use the phone” followed by say-
ing the desired number, e.g. “123456789”.
