Natural language 
understanding*
Due to natural language 
speech recognition technol-
ogy, this system recog-
nizes commands when 
spoken naturally. (If a con-
nected services subscrip-
tion has been entered, the 
system will be able to con-
nect to the Cloud and the 
range of naturally spoken 
English which can be rec-
ognized will be increased.) 
However, the system cannot 
recognize every variation of 
each command. In some sit-
uations, it is possible to 
omit the command for the 
procedure 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.

Phone
●This system is not guaranteed to 
operate with all Bluetooth® 
devices.
●If your cellular phone does not 
support Bluetooth®, this system 
cannot function.
●In the following  conditions, the 
system may not function:
• The cellular phone is turned off.
• The current position is outside the  communication area.
• The cellular phone is not con- nected.
• The cellular phone has a low bat-
tery.
●Depending on the type of Blue-
tooth® phone, some function is 
not available.
●When using the hands-free sys-
tem or Bluetooth® audio and Wi-
Fi® hotspot functions at the same 
time, the following problems may 
occur:
• The Bluetooth
® connection may 
be cut.
• Noise may be heard on the Blue-
tooth
® audio playback.
• A noise may be heard during 
phone calls.
●Bluetooth® uses the 2.4 GHz fre-
quency band. If both a Wi-Fi® con-
nection and Bluetooth® 
connection are being used simul-
taneously, each connection may 
be affected.
●If a Bluetooth® device is attempt-
ing to connect to the vehicle while 
another device is  connected as a 
Bluetooth
® audio device or con-
nected using the hands-free sys-
tem or Wi-Fi
® hotspot function, the 
communication speed may 
decrease or malfunctions may 
occur, such as image distortion or 
audio skipping. If a Bluetooth
® 
device is connected to the system, 
the interference it may cause will 
be reduced. When carrying a 
device with its Bluetooth
® connec-
tion enabled, make sure to regis-
ter it to the system and connect it 
or disable its Bluetooth
® function.
●When a device is connected via 
Bluetooth®, the Bluetooth® icon 
on the status bar will be displayed 
in blue. ( P. 1 6 )
Some basics
The hands-free system 
enables calls to be made 
and received without having 
to take your hands off the 
steering wheel.
This system supports Blue-
tooth
®. Bluetooth® is a wire-
less data system that 
enables cellular phones to 
be used without being con-
nected by a cable or placed 
in a cradle.
The operating procedure of 
the phone is explained here.
When an Apple CarPlay 
connection is established, 
phone functions will be per-
formed by Apple CarPlay 
instead of the hands-free 
system.

●Your audio unit is fitted with 
Bluetooth® antennas. People 
with implantable cardiac pace-
makers, cardiac resynchroniza-
tion therapy-pacemakers or 
implantable cardioverter defibril-
lators should maintain a reason-
able distance between 
themselves and the Bluetooth
® 
antennas. The radio waves may 
affect the operation of such 
devices.
●Before using Bluetooth® 
devices, users of any electrical 
medical device other than 
implantable cardiac pacemak-
ers, cardiac resynchronization 
therapy-pacemakers or implant-
able cardioverter  defibrillators 
should consult the manufacturer 
of the device for information 
about its operation under the 
influence of radio waves. Radio 
waves could have unexpected 
effects on the operation of such 
medical devices.
NOTICE
●Do not leave your cellular phone 
in the vehicle. The temperature 
inside may rise to a level that 
could damage the phone.
