Recognition with
On-Screen Commands
After pressing the key, say
a co\b\band after the beep. \fhe
voice recognition sy\este\b will execute
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.
