Special Character List
The following characters have
special characters beneath them:
Character Handwriting
Recognition
Character handwriting recognition is
offered as an alternative to using a
keyboard. This character input
method allows the drawing out of
characters instead of picking them
out from the keyboard. Character
handwriting recognition has two
main modes, Upper Case and
Mixed Case. The Upper Case mode
is used for Destination Entry while
Mixed Case is used for all other
character entry modes. This feature
is available by touching the globe
button from the keyboard screen.The Handwriting Recognition screen
is split into different zones:
.
Drawing Pad
. Prioritized Guess List
. Character Entry
. Drawing Pad: This is the area
to draw a character. Draw a
character in the display area.
When the first character is
complete, a representation of
that character can be seen, and
there is an audible response.
If the character is correct, the
next character can be started
immediately.
‐ To delete the last entered
character, draw a line from left
to right across the character
field.
‐ To create a space, draw a line
from right to left across the
character field.
. Prioritized Guess List: This
area displays a list of guesses
for the character drawn.
If character recognition displays
the incorrect character, look at this list and see if the desired
character is available to select.
Scroll up or down the list, then
highlight the desired character.
Selecting a character from the
list will replace the incorrect
character with the desired
character. The character is
displayed in the character entry
section of the screen.
. Character Entry: This is the
area across the top of the
screen. This section can look
different depending on which
feature is being used.
Option Settings
This section is an area on the right
side of the Character Recognition
screen. This section will only look
different if the characters displayed
on the screen are in upper case or
mixed case.
.
k: Select from the touch
screen. The draw speed setting
will adjust the speed of the
character recognition feature.
The settings are: Faster, Default,
and Slower.

.Audio Feedback: Touch to turn
Audio Feedback On or Off.
Audio feedback is an audible
response to an action that has
occurred while using the
Character Recognition.
. ABC/abc: Select from the touch
screen to view the available
character sets. Select a
character set to change. Multiple
character sets may not be
supported by some regions. This
button also displays the
sentence case of upper or lower
case characters that are
currently active in a mixed case
mode. If only one character set
is available for the desired
region, touching the character
recognition will only open and
close the character recognition
window.
If mixed case character mode is
supported, the last buttons of
character recognition will be
upper and lower case. One-Shot Search
Enter a full or partial Address,
Contact, or POI into the search bar
and the system will search and
display all of the matches.
The contacts that are searched
include both the connected phone’s
contacts list and the vehicle’s
contacts list.
Search Process
The process of prioritizing the
search is to help shorten the length
of time at finding the results. If there
is a 100% match found when a
search type is carried out, the
remaining searches abort.
The system conducts the search in
the following order:
1. Vehicle Contacts List
2. Connected Phone Contacts List
3. POIs
4. Addresses
The Contacts are done first because
the list will be relatively short and
can be done quickly. POIs are done next because the
amount of time it takes to search for
the average POI is consistent. The
less deviation during a search would
mean an average of less time taken.
The Addresses are last because the
standard deviation for an address
search is very large. Some address
searches are very quick, but others
may take very long. Because of this,
the address search would not be
conducted unless a good match
could not be found in either
Contacts or POIs.
Autocomplete
The autocomplete is preloaded with
all recent destinations and POI
category names. Previous POI
name searches are remembered.
If only one type of result is found,
the single type result screen is
shown. Within each group, they are
listed in confidence order. This
means the highest confidence result
will be at the top.
If multiple types of matches are
found, the result list with the highest
confidence match displays.

the route, the waypoint trip has
the activity indicator displayed
over top of it. If the system is
calculating the ETA and travel
distance for a waypoint, the
activity indicator is displayed in
the list header. .
When either a waypoint trip is
first created, or additional
waypoints are added to an
existing waypoint trip, they are
added in the location that would
lead to an optimized route.
. If a destination is already
planned and a waypoint is
added, it is either added before
or after the current destination,
whichever leads to the most
optimal route.
. If under an existing waypoint trip
consisting of two or more
destinations, any additional
waypoints are added in the
location that would lead to the
most optimal route.
Edit Route

Voice Recognition 83
A voice recognition system
prompt can be interrupted while
it is playing by pressing
g
again.
For example, if the prompt
seems to be taking too long to
finish, press
gagain and the
beep should happen
right away.
There are two voice prompt modes
supported:
. Long verbal prompts: The longer
prompts provide more
information regarding the
supported actions.
. Short prompts: The short
prompts provide simple
instructions about what can be
stated.
If a command is not spoken, the
voice recognition system says a
help prompt.
Prompts and Screen Displays
If equipped, while a voice
recognition session is active, there
will be corresponding buttons on
screens displayed. Manual interaction in the voice recognition
session is permitted. Interaction
during a voice session may be
completed entirely using voice
commands, or some selections may
expedite a session. If a selection is
made using a manual control, the
dialog will progress in the same way
as if the selection was made
through a voice command. Once the
system is able to complete the task,
or the session is terminated, the
voice recognition dialog stops.
An example of this type of manual
intervention is touching on an entry
of a displayed number list instead of
speaking the number associated
with the entry desired.
Canceling Voice Recognition
If equipped, to cancel the voice
recognition session:
.
Touch the Home screen button.
Touching this button will
terminate the voice recognition
session. .
Touch or say “Cancel”or“Exit”
to terminate the voice
recognition session and display
the screen from which voice
recognition was initiated.
. Press
con the steering wheel
controls to terminate the voice
session and display the screen
from which voice recognition
was initiated.
Most languages do not support
natural language commands in
sentence form. For those
languages, use direct commands
like the examples shown on the
display.
Helpful Hints for Speaking
Commands
If equipped, voice recognition can
understand commands that are
either naturally stated in sentence
form or direct commands that state
the application and the task.
For best results:
. Listen for the prompt and wait
for the beep before saying a
command or reply.
