Skipping Prompt
Messages
When you hear the prompt mes-
sage, press the voice recognition
icon on the steering wheel remote
control to skip the message and go
directly to standby mode to say your
command.
This results in faster operation when
you feel the message is too long or
you already know the command to
use.
Quick Run of
Voice Recognition
(Manual Mode)
Usually, you are supposed to say
a command to execute the desired
operation after the voice guidance.
However, it takes a little time to wait
for the voice guidance. If you would
like to activate the desired operation
more quickly, you can just touch the
commands displayed on the screen.
This feature is useful when you feel
the voice guidance is too long or
voice commands do not work as you
desired.

Types of Commands
Voice recognition commands are classified as “Global Commands
“ and “Local Commands.”
1. Global Commands ("J
): Commands that can be used immediately after acti-
vating voice recognition.
2. Local Commands (
!¹): Commands that can be used when a multimedia,
navigation, or Bluetooth call is running, or displayed on the screen, after
activating voice recognition.
Phone 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
Contacts, you must first download the Contacts list. For details on down-
loading contacts, see “Part 4. Using 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 it takes to convert voice data may vary depending on
the number of Contacts downloaded on the phone.
