VOICE COMMANDS / SPEECH RECOGNITION
Operation of the Lexus Link speech recognition systems:
Speech recognition allows the user to speak to a computer.
The computer tries to understand the user’s command, and
responds by speaking back or by taking the appropriate action
(e.g., dialing the phone).
Personal calling uses a speech recognition system that is built
in the vehicle. When the user presses the phone or PTT
button, the system says “Lexus Link ready”, and listens for the
user’s command. The user can speak commands to control
the hands−free wireless phone.
Performance of speech recognition:
The Lexus Link speech recognition systems use speech
technology that is designed to understand a wide range of
speakers of American English. However, the technology does
not work equally well across all regional and ethnic accents.
The Lexus Link voice recognition system may not work with all
voices.
Although there is no one right way to speak English, the system
will work best when you try to modify their pronunciation in
response to system errors. If you do not obtain good results,
try the tips found on the following pages.
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.
