Voice Recognition and Phone Contact Tips
To help optimize the Bluetooth
®
Wireless
Technology Voice Recognition system, below
are some tips and reminders. Improve the
performance by making a few simple changes
to your phone contacts:
• Use full names (first and last names) vs.
short or single-syllable names (“John Smith”
vs. “Dad," “Smith Residence” vs. “Home”)
• Avoid using special characters, emojis or
hyphenated names (@, &, #, /, -, *, +, etc.)
• Avoid using acronyms (“In Case of
Emergency” vs. “ICE”) or words with all
capital letters
• Spell words completely, no abbreviations
(“Doctor Smith” vs. “Dr. Smith”)
The system may have difficulty understanding
some accents or uncommon names. Below
are other tips to optimize using the voice
recognition.
• When placing a call, speak in a natural, moderate tone, with clear pronunciation.
The system may have trouble recognizing commands if you speak too softly or
too loudly
• Always wait for the beep before speaking any commands
• Close windows and turn off A/C – Open windows, weather (wind/rain), or an A/C
fan operating at higher speeds can interfere with Voice Recognition
• Press the talk button and say “Help” to get a list of available commands
