6-2 I Voice Recognition
What is Voice Recognition?
Voice recognition technology runs the sys-
tem as ordered by recognizing your voice
command for operation of the multimedia
while y
ou are driving the car.
Regretfully, not all possible voice com-
mands are recognized by the system due
to technological limitations. To make up for
these limitations, the system displays the
voice commands that are available for you
to use.
There are errors in communication between
people. Likewise, voice recognition some-
times misunderstands your voice command
in some circumstances. If this happens,
either check the screen for the available
options and say the command again, or
manually select and press the button for the
corresponding command on the screen.
Precautions Required
for Successful Voice
Recognition
1. Voice recognition supports only the
commands that are displayed on the
screen and written in the User's Guide.
2. To ensure the correct recognition and
execution of your command, say your
command when you hear the beep after
a voice prompt.
3. Voice recognition automatically ends if:
1) A call is incoming or outgoing
2) A media (USB or iPod, etc.) is con-
nected or disconnected
3) The front or rear view camera is
operated (optional)
4) The car engine starts or stops
5) A system key, such as
RADIO key
or
MEDIA key is selected
6) An emergency occurs, for example
re-searching for the route after the
navigation route has been lost 4.
The microphone that recognizes your
voice is located over the head part in
the driver's seat. To make your com-
mands better understood, keep your
body straight in the driver's seat when
speaking the command.
5. Speaking naturally and clearly will
ensure better recognition of your voice
commands.
6. In the following cases voice recognition
will be affected by ambient noise.
1) The sound of the wind if any win-
dow or the sun roof is open.
2) High speed blower from the air
v
ents. Set climate control to blow
lower than level 3.
3)
Vibrations from passing through a
tunnel.
4) Vibrations from driving on an
uneven road.
5) Storms and heavy rain.
