IN CASE OF AN EMERGENCY

Voice command error messages:
“Pardon”
The system has not been able to match your command with a
word that it knows. Repeating the command distinctly should
fix the problem. After 3 pardon responses, the system will try
to guess the command you are requesting. If correct, say
“Yes”, if not, say “No” and the system will prompt you with its
next−best guess.
“Slower, please”
Repeat the command after a short pause. This response
normally happens if you say a command before the system is
ready for it or if there is substantial background noise.
General tips for better speech recognition:
<Noise>
Noise may confuse the speech recognition system. You
usually get better performance from the system in quieter
conditions:
D The air conditioning/heater fan creates noise. Turn it down
or off for better speech system performance.
D Driving at high speeds creates louder engine noise and
wind noise. You may get better results at lower speeds.
D An open window or an open moon roof results in more noise
in the vehicle. Close all windows for better results.
D Noisy rainstorms can also reduce performance.
D If passengers are talking while you use the speech system,
it may be confused by their speech. You will get better
results if all occupants of the vehicle are quiet while the
system is listening for commands.
<When to speak>
Personal calling—the system is only listening for about 5
seconds after it prompts you to speak. If the system does not
hear a response, it will prompt you again, or cancel the
transaction. If you begin to speak too soon, it will tell you
“Slower, please”. Try pausing for a half second before
speaking.
