Voice Recognition
Precautions Required
for Successful Voice
Recognition
1. Voice recognition supports only
the co\b\bands that are displayed
on the screen and written in the
User’s Guide.
2. \fo ensure the correct recognition
and execution of your co\b\band,
say your co\b\band when you hear
the beep after a voice pro\bpt.
3. Voice recognition auto\batically
ends if: 1) A call is inco\bi\eng or outgoing
2) A \bedia device (USB or iP od, etc.)
is connected or dis\econnected
3) \fhe rear view ca\ber a is operated
4) \fhe car engine starts or stops
5) A syste\b key, such as RADIO
key or
MEDIA key is selected

4. \fhe \bicrophone used for the voice
recognition syste\b is located in the
headliner directly above the driver’s
head. \fo \bake your co\b\bands
better understood, keep your body
straight in the driver’s seat when
speaking the co\b\band\e.
5. Speaking natur ally and clearly will
ensure better recognition of your
voice co\b\bands.
6. In the following cases voice rec-
ognition will be affected by a\bbi -
ent noise.
1) \fhe sound of the wind if any
window or the sun roof i\es open.
2) High speed blower fro\b the
air vents. Set cli\bate control to
blow lower than level 3.
3) Vibrations fro\b passing\e through

On-Screen Commands
After pressing the key, say

the desired operation after under -
standing the co\b\band\e.
Alternatively, you \bay touch any
of the corresponding Co\b\bands
on the screen while the Voice
Recognition syste\b i\es in operation.

Co\bbining voice recognition with
available on-screen co\b\bands is
useful when the syst\ee\b is taking lon -
ger than expected or the voice co\b-
\band did not execute as desired.
