2. CASUAL SPEECH RECOGNIZATION
Due to natural language speech recog-
nition technology, this system enables
recognition of a command when spoken
naturally. However, the system cannot
recognize every variation of each com-
mand. In some situations, it is possible to
omit the command for the procedure
and directly state the desired operation.
Not all voice commands are displayed in
the short cut menu.

will be displayed. (Search results will be
shown based on the part of the command
that was recognized.)
