without using this function, you may not
realize the added benefit 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 registration in as quite a place
as possible (page 6-61).
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 open to the page indicated below.

phrases. Press and release the phone
button when you are ready to begin.
Press and hold the phone button to
cancel at any time. ”

voice input command for voice
recognition learning (1 to 8) according
to the voice guidance.)

Voice input command list for voice
recognition learning
