VOICE COMMANDS
INTRODUCTION
3)
Most of the navigator, radio, multimedia
and phone actions can be imparted
using the voice system instead of the
Rotary Pad.
For example, to make a phone call, you
can say “dial number” followed by the
number: “dial number 8 0 0 0 4 2 6 5 3”
In addition to being practical and fast,
this method increases safety because it
allows to keep both hands on the wheel
during the interaction and to reduce
distractions while driving; the voice
system will perform the required
operations and, if required, will answers
or confirm using a synthesised voice.
The system can recognise the voice
commands given, irrespective of gender,
tone of voice and intonation of the
person uttering them.
Please follow the suggestions below to
be sure that the voice commands are
always recognised by the system:
speak with normal volume and speed;
for optimum operation, it is advisable
to close the windows to reduce noise
and avoid sources of external
interference.
Before speaking:
always wait for the sound which
indicates beginning of the voice session;
reduce noise inside the passenger
compartment as much as possible;
ask passengers not to talk. The system
can recognise commands irrespective
of the person uttering them; if several
people talk at the same time the
superimposition can create confusion
and cause different or additional
commands to be recognised.
It is important to remember that some
functions which can be executed by
means of voice control may not be
available until synchronisation between
the system and external devices is
completed (e.g. phonebook of phones
paired via Bluetooth®, archive of
MP3 tracks on USB devices).
Synchronisation may take from a few
seconds to a few minutes according
to the amount of data.
