6-2 I Voice Recognition
What is Voice Recognition?
The voice recognition feature operates the
multime\fia system by recognizing voice
comman\fs an\f enables han\fs-free oper-
ation of the system while you are \friving
your car.
Not all possible voice comman\fs are
recognize\f by the system \fue to techno -
logical limitations. To make up for these
limitations, the system \fisplays the voice
comman\fs that are available for you to
use.
There are errors in communication between
people. Likewise, voice recognition some -
times misun\ferstan\fs your voice comman\f
in some circumstances. If this happens,
either check the screen for the available
options an\f say the comman\f again, or
manually select an\f press the button for the
correspon\fing comma\qn\f on the screen.
Precautions Required
