38 Voice Recognition
Once voice recognition is started,
both the infotainment display and
instrument cluster show the
selections and visual dialog content.
These displays can be turned On or
Off in the Tutorial Mode under
Settings 0 51.
There are three voice prompt modes
supported:
Informative verbal prompts: This
type of prompt will provide more
information regarding the
supported actions.
Short prompts: This type of
prompt will provide simple
instructions about what can be
stated.
Auto informative prompts: This
type of prompt plays during the
first few speech sessions, then
automatically switches to the
short prompt after some
experience has been gained
through using the system.
If a command is not spoken, the
voice recognition system says a
help prompt.
Prompts and Infotainment
Displays
While a voice recognition session is
active, there may be corresponding
options showing on the displays.
A selection can be made by
manually touching the option, or by
speaking the number for the option
to select. Manual interaction in the
voice recognition session is
permitted. Interaction during a voice
session may be completed entirely
using voice commands while some
manual commands may expedite a
task. If a selection is made using a
manual control, the voice
recognition dialog will progress in
the same way as if the selection
was made using a voice command.
Once the system completes the
task, or the session is terminated,
the voice recognition dialog stops.
An example of this type of manual
intervention is touching an entry of a
displayed number list instead of
speaking the number associated
with the entry desired.
Canceling Voice Recognition
Touch or say Cancel or Exit
to terminate the voice
recognition session and show
the display where voice
recognition was initiated.
Press on the steering wheel
controls to terminate the voice
recognition session and show
the display where voice
recognition was initiated.
Natural Language Commands
Most languages do not support
natural language commands in
sentence form. For those
languages, use direct commands
like the examples shown on the
display.
Helpful Hints for Speaking
Commands
Voice recognition can understand
commands that are naturally stated
in sentence form or direct
commands that state the application
and the task.
