Using Voice Recognition
Using Voice Recognition
Creating a suitable cabin environment
When using the voice recognition feature, only commands listed
within the user's manual are supported.
Be aware that during the operation of the voice recognition sys-
tem, pressing some keys other than the
key will terminate
voice recognition mode.
For superior voice recognition performance, position the micro-
phone used for voice recognition above the head of the driver’s
seat and maintain a proper position when saying commands.
Within the following situations, voice recognition may not func-
tion properly due to external sound.
•
When the windows and sunroof are open
•
When the wind of the cooling/heating device is strong
•
When entering and passing through tunnels
•
When driving on rugged and uneven roads
•
During severe rain (heavy rains, windstorms)
After downloading the Bluetooth
®
contacts, it takes some times
to convert the contacts into voice information. During this time,
voice recognition may not properly operate.
Pronounce the voice commands naturally and clearly as if in a
normal conversation.
The system may slow down slightly when using the Navigation
to calculate a new route or re-calculating an existing route. In
such cases, use voice recognition features after waiting a few
moments.
