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 device (USB or iPod,
etc.) is connected or discon-
nected
3) The front or rear view camera is
operated (optional)
4) The car engine starts or stops
5) A system key, such as
RADIO
or
MEDIA is selected
6) An emergency occurs, for
example re-searching for the
route after the navigation route
has been lost
4. The microphone used for the
voice recognition system is
located in the headliner directly
above the driver’s head. To make
your commands better under-
stood, 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 rec-
ognition will be affected by ambi-
ent noise.
1) The sound of the wind if any
window or the sun roof is open.
2) A strong wind blowing from the
air vents. Set climate control to
blow softer than level 3.
3) Vibrations from passing through
a tunnel.
4) Vibrations from driving on an
uneven road.
5) Storms and heavy rain.

Voice Recognition
Skipping Prompt
Messages
When you hear the prompt, “Please
say a command”, from the system,
press the voice recognition icon on
the steering wheel control to skip the
message and go directly to listening
mode to say your command.
This results in faster operation when
you feel the message is too long or
you already know the command to
use.

Refer to Part 10 for instructions on

w to change the Voice Recognition
Settings.
Combining Voice
Recognition with
On-Screen Commands
After pressing the key, say
a command after the beep. The
voice recognition system will execute
the desired operation after learning
the command. Alternatively, you may
touch any of the corresponding
commands on the screen while the
Voice Recognition system is in oper-
ation.
Combining voice recognition with
available on-screen commands is
useful when the system is taking lon-
ger than expected or the voice com-
mand did not execute as desired.
