Natural language
understanding*
Due to natural language
speech recognition technol-
ogy, this system recognizes
commands when spoken
naturally. (If a connected
services subscription has
been entered, the system
will be able to connect to
the Cloud and the range of
naturally spoken English
which can be recognized
will be increased.) However,
the system cannot recog-
nize every variation of each
command. In some situa-
tions, it is possible to omit
the command for the proce-
dure and directly state the
desired operation. Not all
voice commands are dis-
played in the function menu.
To use this function, a sub-
scription to the connected
services is necessary. Con-
tact your Toyota dealer for
details.

Phone
*: This function is not made avail- able in some countries or areas.
●This system is n ot guaranteed to
operate with all Bluetooth®
devices.
●If your cellular phone does not
support Bluetooth®, this system
cannot function.
●In the following conditions, the
system may not function:
• The cellular phone is turned off.
• The current position is outside the communication area.
• The cellular phone is not con- nected.
• The cellular phone has a low bat-
tery.
●Depending on the type of Blue-
tooth® phone, some function is
not available.
●When using the hands-free sys-
tem or Bluetooth® audio and
Wi-Fi® hotspot functions at the
same time, the following problems
may occur:
• The Bluetooth
® connection may
be cut.
• Noise may be heard on the Blue-
tooth
® audio playback.
• A noise may be heard during phone calls.
●Bluetooth® uses the 2.4 GHz fre-
quency band. If both a Wi-Fi® con-
nection and Bluetooth®
connection are being used simul-
taneously, each connection may
be affected.
●If a Bluetooth® device is attempt-
ing to connect to the vehicle while
another device is connected as a
Bluetooth
® audio device or con-
nected using the hands-free sys-
tem or Wi-Fi
® hotspot function, the
communication speed may
decrease or malfunctions may
occur, such as image distortion or
audio skipping. If a Bluetooth
®
device is connected to the system,
the interference it may cause will
be reduced. When carrying a
device with its Bluetooth
® connec-
tion enabled, make sure to regis-
ter it to the system and connect it
or disable its Bluetooth
® function.
●When a device is connected via
Bluetooth®, the Bluetooth® icon
on the status bar will be displayed
in blue. ( P. 1 7 )
Some basics
The hands-free system
enables calls to be made
and received without having
to take your hands off the
steering wheel.
This system supports Blue-
tooth
®. Bluetooth® is a wire-
less data system that
enables cellular phones to
be used without being con-
nected by a cable or placed
in a cradle.
The operating procedure of
the phone is explained here.
When an Apple CarPlay
connection is established,
phone functions will be per-
formed by Apple CarPlay
instead of the hands-free
system.
