the Internet. You must first configure the headset to be used for Bluetooth voice recognition.

1.

Double-click the Bluetooth control icon

in the taskbar notification area. Double-click the icon for

the audio headset, or right-click the icon and select Control.

2. Under Headset Operations\

Headset and Speakerphone, click the Disconnect button.

3. Click Enable speech recognition for (Device Name) headset.

4. Click the Connect button to reconnect to the Bluetooth headset.

Now, you can begin using Voice recognition.

1. Push the button on your headset to initiate speech recognition.

A window opens to show the voice commands you can use.

2. To start a Skype call, say “Call name”, where name is a Skype contact.

If the computer finds a match for name in your Skype contacts, it initiates the call. If the computer
finds multiple matches, it displays them in a numbered list. Say the number of the contact you want
to call.

To begin using Windows Speech Recognition, say “Start”.

Windows Speech Recognition enters listening mode and you can begin using voice commands to
control your computer. See the Speech Recognition topics in Windows Help and Support for common
