220 Voice Activation
Voice activation system
The voice recognition function allows you to operate the nav-
igation system, audio system and hands-free phone system
using your voice instead of display screen handling. This sec-
tion includes instructions about how to perform the voice
commands. The commands that can be recognized by this
system are restricted. (See Page 222.) For each function, refer
to the corresponding items.
■ Correct voice recognition
The circumstance of the interior of the vehicle will adversely affect the
correct recognition of the voice. Note the following items in order for
the system to correctly recognize the voice.
• Speak clearly into the microphone. Speaking faster or slower and
pausing between words will cause incorrect recognition.
• Close the windows to eliminate outside noise. Traffic noise, driving
sounds and wind noise may affect the correct recognition of the
voice.
• Speak the voice commands correctly. The commands that can be
recognized by this system are restricted. Any terms other than the
recognized terms for the system or dull sounds that are incorrectly
spoken will not be recognized by the system. If the name of a facility
is pronounced differently from the recognized terms for the system,
the command will not be recognized by the system.
• The microphone is located at the best distance and in the best direc-
tion for each model to gain the maximum voice recognition perfor-
mance. Speak commands in the correct driving posture.
• Do not speak commands during navigation voice guidance or voice
recognition talk back. This causes sounds to overlap and results in
incorrect voice recognition.
