Using system
Initialization :
When the ignition switch is pushed to the ON
position, Voice Recognition System is initial-
ized, which may take up to one minute. When
completed, the system is ready to accept voice
commands. If the
switch on the steering
wheel is pushed before the initialization com-
pletes, the system will not accept any
command. Before starting :
To get the best performance out of the Voice
Recognition System, observe the following:
●
Keep the interior of the vehicle as quiet as
possible. Close the windows to eliminate the
surrounding noises (traffic noises, vibration
sounds, etc.), which may prevent the system
from recognizing the voice commands cor-
rectly.
● Wait until a tone sounds before speaking a
command.
● Speak a voice command within 5 seconds
after the beep sound. If no voice command is
given, the system will ask you for a number.
If no further command is given, the session
ends.
● Speak in a natural voice without pausing
between words. Giving voice command:
1. Push and release theswitch located
on the steering wheel.

book, Recent Calls, Connect Phone or
Help”.
3. After the tone sounds and the icon on the screen changes from

speak a command. See the “List of voice
commands” later in this section for the
voice command list. Speak “Call” for ex-
ample.

mand recognition mode
.

adjust the volume of the system feedback,
push the volume control buttons [+] or []
on the steering wheel or use the audio
system volume knob while the system is
making an announcement. How to speak commands :
The Voice Recognition System requires a certain
way to speak voice commands. Speak normally
and clearly in the direction of the microphone
(located in front of the rearview mirror). Every
digit of the number must be spoken individually
and in a normal manner. The hands-free mode
will work best when the telephone number is
spoken in blocks of three to five digits. After
each spoken block is terminated, the system
will repeat the three to five digits and wait for
you to speak the next digit or block of digits
required for the telephone number.
See “List of voice commands” later in this
section for the appropriate commands that can
be spoken for the hands-free mode system.
Example:
In order to initiate a call, speak “Phonebook”.
INFO
●
If you are controlling the telephone system
by voice command for the first time or do not
know the appropriate voice command, speak
“Help”. The system announces the available
commands.
● When you speak numbers, you can speak
both “zero” or “oh” for “0”.
