Convenient operating tips for us ing the voice recognition function
Examples of effective voice commands in various categories are displayed on the voice
recognition screen.
NOTE
The voice command examples shown in this manu al are only a partial list of the available
commands. Some commands may be unusable depending on the vehicle specifications.
Some commands cannot be used depending on the device connection conditions and the
use conditions.
When the Barge-In setting is on, voice commands can be made even while the voice
guidance is being announced. For details on Barge-In, refer to the System Settings section
in the Mazda Connec t Owner's Manual.
For details on voice commands which can be used on the navigation screen, refer to the
navigation system manual.
To prevent misunderstood voice comman ds, be aware of the following points:
Connect your mobile phone to Bluetooth® before operating the mobile phone using voice
recognition.
After pressing the talk/pick-up button, wa it for the beep before speaking a command.
Speaking in a slightly louder voice will im prove voice recognition, but an excessively
loud voice is unnecessary. Try to speak in a s lightly louder voice than when talking to
other passengers in the vehicle.
You do not need to speak slowly. Speak at a normal speed.
When calling a person in the device's phonebook, the recognition rate increases the longer
the name is. Errors may occur with names that are short such as “Mama”, “Home”, or
“wife”.
Speak clearly, without pausing between words or numbers.
Voice commands other than those specified, cannot be recognized. Speak in the wording
specified by the voice commands.

maintaining a safe driving position.
Close the windows and the moonroof* to reduce loud noises from outside the vehicle and
to prevent the airflow of the air-conditioning system from being a disturbance when using
Bluetooth
® Hands-Free.
Make sure that the air flow from the air conditioner is not blowing on the microphone.
If the voice recognition is poor with the guid ance volume set to high, set the Barge-In to
