• Spoken too quickly.
• Spoken at a low or high volume.
• The roof or windows are open.
• Passengers are talking while speech commands are spoken.
• The air conditioning speed is set high.
• The air conditioning vents are turned towards the microphone.
In the following conditions, the system may not recognize the command
properly and using speech commands may not be possible:
• The command is incorrect or unclear. Note that certain words, accents or
speech patterns may be difficult for the system to recognize.
• There is excessive background noise, such as wind noise.

A USB memory or iPod must be connected to enable track searching and
playback. (P. 510, 521)

tracks can be searched using speech commands.

to search for a track using a speech command. In this situation, reduce the

tion data to enable searching by speech command.
