ogy, this system recog-
nizes commands when
spoken naturally. (If a con-
nected services subscrip-
tion has been entered, the
system will be able to con-
nect to the Cloud and the
range of naturally spoken
English which can be rec-
ognized will be increased.)

recognize every variation of
each command. In some sit-
uations, it is possible to
omit the command for the
procedure and directly state
the desired operation. Not
all voice commands are dis-
played in the function
menu.
To use this function, a sub-
scription to the connected
services is necessary. Con-
tact your Toyota dealer for
details.
