Voice Recognition and Phone Contact Tips
The system may have difficulty understanding
some accents or uncommon names. Improve the
performance by making a few simple changes
to your phone contacts, listed below. To help
optimize the Bluetooth® Wireless Technology Voice
Recognition system, see other tips and reminders
under Quick Tips:
•Use full names (first and last names) vs. short or
single-syllable names (“John Smith” vs. “Dad,"
“Smith Residence” vs. “Home”)
•Avoid using special characters, emojis or
hyphenated names (@, &, #, /, -, *, +, etc.)
•Avoid using acronyms (“In Case of Emergency” vs. “ICE”) or words with
all capital letters
•Spell words completely, no abbreviations (“Doctor Smith” vs. “Dr. Smith”)
•The system may register or pair multiple Bluetooth® devices. See the Car Infotainment System Quick Reference Guide for more information on setup and limitations
•Bluetooth® Music Streaming: If the Bluetooth® music is inaudible or too low, turn up the volume on the connected phone
•When placing a call, speak in a natural, moderate tone, with clear pronunciation. The system may have trouble recognizing commands if you speak too softly or too loudly
•Always wait for the beep before speaking any commands
•Close windows and sunroof and turn off A /C. The noise from an A /C fan operating at higher speeds or wind noise from open windows or sunroof can interfere with Voice Recognition
•Press the talk button and say “Help” to get a list of available commands
QUICK TIPS
Bluetooth® Wireless Technology†5,23 (continued)
