tion to the analog broadcasts it

casts have better sound quality 
than analog broadcasts as digi-
tal broadcasts provide free, 
crystal clear audio with no static 
or distortion. For more informa-
tion, and a guide to available 
radio stations and programming,

understanding*
Due to natural language 
speech recognition technol-
ogy, this system recognizes 
commands when spoken 
naturally. (If a connected 
services subscription has 
been entered, the system 
will be able to connect to 
the Cloud and the range of 
naturally spoken English 
which can be recognized 
will be increased.) However, 
the system cannot recog-
nize every variation of each 
command. In some situa-
tions, it is possible to omit 
the command for the proce-
dure and directly state the 
desired operation. Not all 
voice commands are dis-
played in the function menu.
To use this function, a sub-
scription to the connected 
services is necessary. Con-
tact your Toyota dealer for 
details.
