 Press and hold the MENU key.
 Say the newly learned phrase into the microphone.
The phrase you have said in the foreign language will be compared
to the model pronunciation. If you have pronounced the phrase
correctly, the device will recognize it and then show or pronounce
its translation in your native language. If the device does not
recognize you – simply repeat the above steps.
The accuracy of speech recognition depends on the level of
external noise. It is best to ensure silence in the room where you
practice your pronunciation.
To achieve the best results, please consider the following.
1. Ensure the room is relatively quiet.
2. Choose an optimum distance of 3 – 6 inches (8 – 15 cm) from
the built-in microphone, taking your normal speaking volume into
consideration.
3. Do not say unrelated words or phrases into the microphone.
4. Try to say phrases distinctly and plainly without clipping syllables.
5. Avoid carelessness in pronunciation (smacking of lips, loudly
inhaling or exhaling, mumbling, interruptions, repetitions, etc.).
