“Dial”. Names from the phonebook cannot be spoken after the command “Dial”.
. Names in the phonebook can be recognized when only a first name is spoken or when spoken in the order of first name and then the last name. The
system does not recognize the commands when only a last name is spoken or if the phonebook name was pronounced with last name first and then the
first name.
. The system has the function to read the text messages out loud, but misreading may occur in some cases.
. Even if nicknames such as “Mom” or “Dad” are registered in the cellular phone, the voice recognition system recognizes only names. To have the system
recognize the nicknames, register the entries in the [Quick Dial] from the Phone menu.
