Voice Commands
Types of Commands
Voice recognition commands are classified as “Global Commands” and “Local
Commands”.
1. Global Commands (●
): Commands that can be used immediately after acti-
vating voice recognition.
2. Local Commands ( ○
): Commands that can be used when a multimedia,
navigation, or Bluetooth call is running, or displayed on the screen, after
activating voice recognition.
Call Commands
* Check the following before using call commands:
1. Voice commands related to phone calls can be used after connecting the
Bluetooth device.
2. To call a person, for example “Call <John Smith>” whose name is listed in
Contacts, you must first download the Contacts list. For details on down-
loading contacts, see “Part 4. Bluetooth
® > Chapter 3. Bluetooth® Phone >
4.10 Contacts”.
3. After downloading the Bluetooth contacts, it will take some time to convert
the Contacts into voice data during which time you cannot make a call by
name yet. The time takes to convert voice data may vary depending on the
number of Contacts downloaded.
