Voice Recognition
Learning Function
(Speaker Enrollment)
The voice recognition learning function
enables voice recognition appropriate to
the characteristics of the user's voice. If
the recognition of the voice input
commands to the system is not adequate,
this function can l argely improve the
system's voice recognition of the user. If
your voice can be recognized sufficiently
without using this function, you may not
realize the added bene fit of the function.
To register your voice, the voice input
command list must be read out. Read out
the list when the vehicle is parked.
Perform the registratio n in as quiet a place
as possible (page 5- 57). The registration
must be performed completely. The
required time is a few minutes. The user
needs to be seated in the driver's seat with
the voice input command list for voice
recognition learning visible.
▼ When voice recognit
ion learning is
done for the first time
1. Press the pick-up button or talk button with a short press.
2. Say: [Beep] “Voice training”
3. Prompt: “This operation must be
performed in a quiet environment
while the vehicle is stopped. See the
owner's manual for the list of required
training phrases. Press and release the
talk button when you are ready to
begin. Press the hang-up button to
cancel at any time.”

Voice input command list for voice
recognition learning
When reading out, the following points
must be observed:
•Read out the numbers one at a time
correctly and naturally.
(For example, “1234” must be read out
“one, two, three, four” not “twelve,
thirty four”.)
•Do not read out parentheses. “(” and
hyphens “-” are used for separating
numbers in a phone number.
Ex.
“(888) 555-1212” must be spoken “Eight,
eight, eight, five, fiv e, five, one, two, one,
two.”

Voice recognition related problems
SymptomCauseSolution method
Poor voice recognition
•Excessive, slow speech.•Excessive, forceful speech (shout-
ing).
•Speaking before the beep sound
has ended.
•Loud noise (speaking or noise from
outside/inside vehicle).
•Airflow from A/C is blowing
against the microphone.
•Speaking in off-standard expres-
sions (dialect). Regarding the causes indicated on
the left, be careful with how you
speak. In addition,
when numbers
are spoken in a sequence, recogni-
tion ability will improve if no stop is
placed between the numbers.
False recognition of numbers
Poor voice recognition
There is a malfunction in the micro-
phone.A poor connection or malfunction
with the microphone may have oc-
curred. Consult an Authorized Maz-
da Dealer.
Phone-related voice recognition is
disabled There is a problem with the connec-
tion between the Bluetooth
® unit
and the device. If there is any malfunction after
checking the pairin
g situation, check
for device pairing or connection
problems.
Names in the phonebook are not
easily recognized The Bluetooth
® system is under a
condition in which recognition is
difficult. By carrying out the following meas-
ures, the rate of recognition will im-
prove.•Clear memory from the phonebook
which is not used very often.
•Avoid shortened names, use full
names. (Recognitio
n improves the
longer the name is. By not using
names such as “Mom”, “Dad”, rec-
ognition will improve.)
When operating the audio, a song
name is not recognized Song names cannot be recognized
by voice.
