Helpful Hints for Speaking Commands
Voice recognition identifies commands that
are naturally stated in sentence form,
or direct commands that state the
application and the task.
For best results:
Speak the command naturally, not too
fast, not too slow.
Use direct commands without a lot of
extra words. For example, Call <name>
at work, Play followed by the artist or
song name, or Play followed by the
radio station number.
Direct commands are more clearly
understood by the system. An example of a
direct command is Dial <number>.
If a cell phone number was saved with a
name and a place, the direct command
and
should include both. For example Call
<name> at work.

commands for AM, FM, SiriusXM (if

name identified in the command. This
