the system will repeat them.
.If a command is not recognized, the system
announces, “Command not recognized.
Please try again.” Make sure the command
is said exactly as prompted by the system
and repeat the command in a clear voice.
.If you want to go back to the previous
command, you can say “Go back” or
“Correction” any time the system is waiting
