To help optimize the Bluetooth® Wireless
Technology Voice Recognition system, below
are some tips and reminders . Improve the
performance by making a few simple changes
to your phone contacts:
•Use full names (first and last names) vs .
short or single-syllable names (“John Smith”
vs . “Dad," “Smith Residence” vs . “Home”)
•Avoid using special characters, emojis or
hyphenated names (@, &, #, /, -, *, +, etc . )
•Avoid using acronyms (“In Case of
Emergency” vs . “ICE”) or words with all
capital letters
•Spell words completely, no abbreviations
(“Doctor Smith” vs . “Dr . Smith”)
The system may have difficulty understanding
some accents or uncommon names . Below
are other tips to optimize using the voice
recognition .
• When placing a call, speak in a natural, moderate tone, with clear pronunciation . The system may have trouble recognizing commands if you speak too softly or too loudly
• Always wait for the beep before speaking any commands
• Close windows and turn off A /C – Open windows, weather (wind/rain), or an A /C fan operating at higher speeds can interfere with Voice Recognition
• Press the talk button and say “Help” to get a list of available commands
