Auto informative prompts: This
type of prompt plays during the
first few speech sessions, then
automatically switches to the
short prompt after some
experience has been gained
through using the system.
If a command is not spoken, the
voice recognition system says a
help prompt.
Prompts and Infotainment
Displays
While a voice recognition session is
active, there may be corresponding
options showing on the displays.
A selection can be made by
manually touching the option, or by
speaking the number for the option
to select. Manual interaction in the
voice recognition session is
permitted. Interaction during a voice
session may be completed entirely
using voice commands while some
manual commands may expedite a
task. If a selection is made using a
manual control, the voice
recognition dialog will progress in
the same way as if the selection
were made using a voice command.
Once the system completes the
task, or the session is terminated,
the voice recognition dialog stops.
An example of this type of manual
intervention is touching an entry of a
displayed number list instead of
speaking the number associated
with the entry desired.

Helpful Hints for Speaking
Commands
Voice recognition can understand
commands that are naturally stated
in sentence form or direct
commands that state the application
and the task.
For best results:
.
Listen for the prompt before
saying a command or reply.
.
Speak the command naturally,
not too fast, not too slow.
.
Use direct commands without a
lot of extra words. For example,
“
Call <name> at work,
” “
Play
”
followed by the artist or song
name, or
“
Tune
”
followed by the
radio station number.
.
Navigation destinations can be
made in a single command
using keywords. A few examples
are:
“
I want directions to an
address,
” “
I need to find a Place
of Interest or (POI)
”
or
“
Find
contact.
”
The system responds by
requesting more details. For
other POIs, say the name of a
category like
“
Restaurants,
”
“
Shopping Malls,
”
or
“
Hospitals.
”
.
Navigating to a destination
outside of the current country
takes more than one command.
The first command is to tell the
