Helpful Hints for Using Voice Recognition
»
Make sure the interior of your vehicle is as quiet as possible. Wind noise from open
windows and road vibrations may prevent the system from correctly recognizing
spoken commands.
»
Before giving a voice command, wait for the system announcement to finish, followed
by a single tone. Any command spoken before this does not register with the system.
»
Speak naturally, without long pauses between words.
»
You can interrupt the system at any time while it is speaking by pressing the voice
button . You can cancel a voice session by pressing and holding the voice button .
The system provides feedback through audible tones, prompts, questions and spoken
confirmations depending on the situation and the chosen level of interaction. You can
customize the voice recognition system to provide more or less instruction and feedback.
