Voice Recognition and Phone Contact Tips
The Kia Voice Recognition System may have difficulty understanding some accents or uncommon names When using Voice Recognition to place a call, speak in a moderate tone, with clear pronunciation
Help your Bluetooth® Wireless Technology Voice Recognition performance by making a few simple changes to your phone
contacts:
• Use full names vs short or single
syllable names (“John Smith”
vs “Dad”, “Smith Residence” vs
“Home”)
• Avoid using special characters or
hyphens (@, &, #, /, -, *, +, etc )
• Avoid using acronyms (“In Case
Emergency” vs “ICE”)
• Spell words completely, no abbreviations (“Doctor
Goodman” vs “Dr Goodman”)
Contacts Sync Tips
• If Contact Sync is set to ON, contacts stored in your phone will download each time your phone is connected There may be a delay before the system is available to place a call
• If Contact Sync is set to OFF, your phone contacts will download only at the initial pairing This allows you to make calls without waiting for your phone contact list to download
QUICK TIPS
