Confirmation Prompts
The confirmation prompt confirms the
command content to the user before
advancing to the operation requested by
the user. When this function is turned
on, the system reads out the voice
input command previously received
and confirms whether the command is
correct before advancing to the command
execution.
When the confirmation prompt function is
turned on:
(Ex. “Calling John's device. Is this
correct?”)
When the confirmation prompt function is
turned off:
(Ex. “Calling John's device.”)
NOTE
If the confirmation prompt function is
turned off when making an emergency
call, the system reads out and confirms the
command before executing it.
1. Press the pick-up button or talk button
with a short press.
2. Say: [Beep] “Setup”
3. Prompt: “Select one of the following:
Pairing options, confirmation prompts,
language, passcode, select phone or
select music player.”

5. Prompt: “Confirmation prompts

confirmation prompts off/on?”
6. Say: [Beep] “Yes”
7. Prompt: “Confirmation prompts are
off/on.” Voice Recognition Learning
Function (Speaker Enrollment)
(Type A) The voice recognition learning function
enables voice recognition appropriate to
the characteristics of the user's voice. If the
recognition of the voice input commands
to the system is not adequate, this function
can largely improve the system's voice
recognition of the user. If your voice can
be recognized sufficiently without using
this function, you may not realize the
added benefit of the function. To register
your voice, the voice input command
list must be read out. Read out the list
when the vehicle is parked. Perform the
registration in as quiet a place as possible
(page 5-87 ). The registration must be
performed completely. The required time
is a few minutes. The user needs to be
seated in the driver's seat with the voice
input command list for voice recognition
learning visible.
When voice recognition learning is done
for the first time
1. Press the pick-up button or talk button
with a short press.
2. Say: [Beep] “Voice training”
3. Prompt: “This operation must be
performed in a quiet environment while
the vehicle is stopped. See the owner's
manual for the list of required training
phrases. Press and release the talk
button when you are ready to begin.
Press the hang-up button to cancel at
any time.”
4. Press the talk button with a short press.
5. The voice guidance reads out the voice
input command number (refer to the
voice input command list for voice
recognition learning). (Ex. “Please read
phrase 1”)

Symptom Cause Solution method
Names in the phonebook are not
easily recognized The Bluetooth ®
system is under a
condition in which recognition is
difficult. By carrying out the following
measures, the rate of recognition
will improve. 
Clear memory from the phonebook
which is not used very often. 
Avoid shortened names, use full
names. (Recognition improves the
longer the name is. By not using
names such as “Mom”, “Dad”,
recognition will improve.)
When operating the audio, a song
name is not recognized Song names cannot be recognized
by voice. —
You want to skip guidance — Guidance can be skipped by quickly
pressing and releasing the Talk
button.
Regarding problems with calls Symptom Cause Solution method

environment. This does not indicate a problem
with the device.
The other party cannot be heard or
the speaker's voice is quiet The volume is set at zero or low. Increase the volume.
Other problems Symptom Cause Solution method
The indication for the remaining
battery is different between the
vehicle and the device The indication method is different
between the vehicle and the device. —

vehicle, the telephone number is
updated in the incoming/outgoing
call record but the name does not

outgoing call record is updated by
the name in the phonebook when the
engine is restarted.
The cell phone does not synchronize
with the vehicle regarding the
incoming/outgoing call record Some types of cell phones do not
synchronize automatically. Operate the cell phone for
