6 Voice activation
Using the system (continued)
2. If the user tries to store a nametag, which sounds
phonetically similar to a nametag already stored, or to the
word DIRECTORY, the system will advise the user that this
nametag cannot be stored. In addition, for phone nametags,
phrases that sound like phone numbers are not allowed. For
radio nametags, phrases that sound like radio frequencies,
are not allowed. This is to prevent the user storing a nametag,
which cannot then be recalled because it sounds too much
like another nametag or command.
Volume level adjustment
The speaker volume level can be adjusted independently for the
voice activation system. To adjust, operate the sound system
volume control or the steering wheel volume control during a
voice command or voice training. The speaker volume level can
also be adjusted within the volume preset menu of the audio
system. Also see the Audio Systems Handbook.
Notes:
1. Voice commands cannot be given while a hands free phone
call, radio traffic announcement or navigation guidance is in
progress.
2. If the voice button is pressed whilst a radio traffic
announcement is in progress the announcement will be
canceled. Press the voice button again to start a voice
session.
3. While LISTENING is displayed on the message centre, the
command can be canceled by pressing the Voice button,
except when using the PHONE ENTER command. To cancel
a PHONE ENTER voice session either say CANCEL when
LISTENING is displayed or press the voice button and after
the end of the beep say CANCEL. During a store nametag
session, if the voice button is pressed and released during
LISTENING the system will take up to 2 seconds to cancel.
4. Voice feedback can be interrupted by pressing the Voice
button whilst the feedback is playing.
5. After starting to speak, the command must be completed
within 10 seconds.
6. Excessive noise, for example while driving with windows
open or in demist mode, may cause voice command
misrecognition. If it is too noisy to use the phone, it is likely
that voice commands will not be recognized.
7. During a voice command the audio system and indicator
ticking will be muted.
8. The voice session will be canceled if an alternative message
requires the display/speaker (e.g. incoming phone call, radio
traffic announcement or navigation guidance).
