2. NATURAL LANGUAGE UNDERSTANDING*
Due to natural language speech recog-
nition technology, this system recog-
nizes commands when spoken
naturally. (If a Toyota Entune subscrip-
tion has been entered, the system will
be able to connect to the Toyota En-
tune center and the range of naturally
spoken English which can be recog-
nized will be increased.) However, the
system cannot recognize every varia-
tion of each command. In some situa-
tions, it is possible to omit the
command for the procedure and direct-
ly state the desired operation. Not all
voice commands are displayed in the
function menu.

the Toyota Entune is necessary. Con-
tact your Toyota dealer for details.
