Voice Recognition and Phone Contact Tips
The system may have difficulty understanding some accents or uncommon
names. Improve the performance by making a few simple changes to your
phone contacts, listed below. To help optimize the Bluetooth
Technology Voice Recognition system, see other tips and reminders under
Quick Tips:
• Use full names (first and last names) vs. short or single-syllable names
(e.g., "John Smith" vs. "Dad," "Smith Residence" vs. "Home")
• Avoid using special characters, emojis or hyphenated names (e.g., @,
&, #, /, -, *, +, etc.)
• Avoid using acronyms (e.g., "In Case of Emergency" vs. "ICE") or words
with all capital letters
• Spell words completely, no abbreviations (e.g., "Doctor Smith" vs.
"Dr. Smith")
ALWAYS CHECK THE OWNER'S MANUAL FOR COMPLETE OPERATING INFORMATION AND SAFETY WARNINGS.
