Helpful Hints for Stating Commands
•
When a multiple command is available, choose the
command that works best for you.
•
Words that are in brackets are optional. For
example, for the command Radio [band] [select] FM,
stating Radio FM or Radio select FM are both
valid commands.
•
When the system recognizes the command the
system will do one of the following:
− Perform the function.
− Ask you to confirm your choice.
− Issue an error message "Did not recognize.
Voice Recognition Canceled."
•
If the system is not yet ready, the system will
display a message.
•
To cancel a command or if the system response
does not match your verbal command, press
and hold the talk symbol button. The system will
reply, "Voice Recognition Canceled".
•
If you experience difficulty with the system
recognizing a command, try saying it more softly,
and wait for a few seconds after the beep, or
you may just try saying it again.
