Returning to previous operation

To return to the previous operation, say, “Go Back” while in voice recognition mode.

Cancel

To put the Bluetooth® Hands-Free system in standby mode, say, “Cancel” while in voice recognition mode.

To prevent a deterioration in the voice recognition rate and voice quality, the following points should be observed:

  • The voice recognition cannot be performed while voice guidance or the beep sound is operating. Wait until the voice guidance or the beep sound is finished before saying your commands.

  • Phone related commands are available only when your phone is connected via Bluetooth®. Make sure your phone is connected via Bluetooth® before you operate phone related voice commands.

  • Music play commands, such as Play Artist and Play Album can be used only in USB audio mode.

  • Do not speak too slowly or loudly (no loud voice).

  • Speak clearly, without pausing between words or numbers.

  • Dialects or different wording other than hands-free prompts cannot be recognized by voice recognition. Speak in the wording specified by the voice commands.

  • It is not necessary to face the microphone or approach it. Speak the voice commands while maintaining a safe driving position.

  • Close the windows and/or the moonroof to reduce loud noises from outside the vehicle, or turn down the airflow of the climate control system while Bluetooth® Hands-Free is being used.

  • Make sure the vents are not directing air up towards the microphone.

 

If the voice recognition performance is not satisfactory.

Refer to Troubleshooting (Search).
