Voice Control; Principle Of Operation - Ford 2006 Transit Owner's Handbook Manual

PRINCIPLE OF
OPERATION
Voice recognition enables operation
of the audio system without the need
to divert your attention from the road
ahead in order to change settings, or
receive feedback from the system.
Whenever you issue one of the
defined commands with the system
active, the voice recognition system
converts your command into a
control signal for the audio system.
Your inputs take the form of
dialogues or commands. You are
guided through these dialogues by
announcements or questions.
Please familiarise yourself with the
functions of the audio system before
using voice recognition.
Note: If the Bluetooth and voice
control is used for an extended
period of time when the vehicle is
stationary, make sure that the engine
is running to avoid draining the
battery.
Supported commands
The voice control system allows you
to control the following vehicle
functions:
• phone
• radio
• CD Player
• climate control
• navigation system.

Voice control

Note: The voice control system is
language specific. If you require the
system to operate in another
language please consult your dealer.
System response
As you work through a voice session
the system will prompt you with a
beep tone each time the system is
ready to proceed.
Do not try to give any commands
until the beep tone has been heard.
The voice control system will repeat
each spoken command back to you.
If you are not sure how to continue
say "HELP" for assistance or
"CANCEL" if you do not wish to
continue.
The "HELP" function provides only a
subset of the available voice
commands. Detailed explanations of
all possible voice commands can be
found on the following pages.
Voice commands
All voice commands should be given
using a natural speaking voice, as if
speaking to a passenger or on the
phone. Your voice level should be
dependant on the surrounding noise
level inside or outside the vehicle but
do not shout.
Name tag
The name tag functionality can
support the phone, audio and
navigation features by using the
"STORE NAME" function.
