How to speak numbers
The Voice Recognition System requires the
user to speak numbers in a certain way when
giving voice commands. General rule:
“500”, “800” and “900” can be pronounced
as “five hundred”, “eight hundred” and “nine
hundred” respectively.
For other numbers, only single digits “0”
(zero) to “9” can be used. (For example, for
the number “600”, speaking “six zero zero”
can be recognized by the system, but “six
hundred” cannot be recognized.)
Example:
1-800-662-6200
“One eight hundred six six two six two zero
zero”
INFO:
For the best recognition, speak “zero” for the
number “0”, and “oh” for the letter “o”.
