Contact Tips
The Kia Voice Recognition System may
have difficulty understanding some accents
or uncommon names . When using Voice
Recognition to place a call, speak in a
moderate tone, with clear pronunciation .

Voice Recognition performance by making a
few simple changes to your phone contacts:
•Use full names vs . short or single-syllable
names (“John Smith” vs . “Dad”; “Smith
Residence” vs . “Home”)
•Avoid using special characters or hyphens
(@, &, #, /, -, *, +, etc . )
•Avoid using acronyms (“In Case
Emergency” vs . “ICE”)
•Spell words completely, no abbreviations
(“Doctor Goodman” vs . “Dr . Goodman”)
