Requirements for optimum voice command recognition
▶ Speak at your normal volume without intonation and long pauses.
▶ Avoid bad pronunciation.
▶ Close the doors and windows in order to avoid disturbing environmental in-
fluences on the function of the voice commands.
▶ You are recommended to speak louder at higher speeds, so that the sound of

may not be recognised in such situations. The telephone connection may
not be established or the connection may take too much time to complete.
