USING THE SYSTEM
Initialization
When the ignition switch is pushed to the ON
position, Voice Recognition is initialized, which
may take up to one minute. When completed,
the system is ready to accept voice commands.
If <TALK
> is pushed before the initializa-
tion completes, the display will show the
message: “System not ready”.
BEFORE STARTING
To get the best recognition performance from
Voice Recognition, observe the following items.
. The interior of the vehicle should be as quiet
as possible. Close the windows to eliminate
the surrounding noises (traffic noise and
vibration sounds, etc.), which may prevent
the system from correctly recognizing the
voice commands.
. Wait until the tone sounds before speaking a
command.
. Speak in a natural conversational voice
without pausing between words.
. If the air conditioner is set to “Auto”, the fan
speed is automatically lowered so that voice
commands can be recognized more easily.
GIVING VOICE COMMANDS
1. Push <TALK > located on the steering
wheel switch.
2. A list of commands appears on the screen,
and the system provides the voice menu
prompt “Would you like to access Phone,
Navigation, Information, Audio or Help?”.
3. After the tone sounds and the icon on the
screen changes from [ ] to [ ], speak
a command.
4. Continue to follow the voice menu prompts
and speak after the tone sounds until the
preferred operation is completed.
