Convenient operating tips for using the voice recognition function
Examples of eff ective voice commands in various categories are displayed on top
screen of the voice recognition.
NOTE
The voice command examples shown in this manual are only a partial list of the
available commands. Some commands may be unusable depending on the
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 Connect 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 commands, 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, wait for the beep before speaking a
command.
Speaking in a slightly louder voice will improve voice recognition, but an
excessively loud voice is unnecessary. Try to speak in a slightly 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 phone book, the recognition rate increases
the longer the name is. Errors may oc cur 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.
It is not necessary to face the microphone or approach it. Speak the voice
commands while maintaining a safe driving position.
Close the windows and the moonroof* to reduce loud noises from outside the
vehicle and to prevent the air flow of the air-conditioning system from being a
disturbance when using Bluetooth
® Hands-Free.
