Chapter 7 Operating Your Navigation System with Voice Tips for Voice Operation For your voice commands to be correctly recognized and interpreted, ensure that conditions are suitable for recognition. Reduce the volume setting on your car audio system The voice recognition system may have problems distinguishing your voice commands from background noise. Turn down your audio system: remember that voices on the radio might be interpreted as commands. ➲ If you have a Pioneer AV Head Unit (except AVH-P6400CD and AVH-P6400) with a muting function (one that has an Yellow/black lead), the volume will automatically be reduced when you give a voice command (see "Voice Recognition Mute" on page 103). Close the car windows Just as your audio system may interfere with voice operation, so can wind noise caused by open windows and sounds entering from outside. If you have problems with voice recognition, try closing the car windows. Position the microphone carefully For optimum pick-up, the microphone should be fixed at a suitable distance directly in front of the driver. Make sure that you do not need to alter your position or look away from the road ahead when giving voice commands; not only is this awkward, but it can also compromise driving safety. Bear this in mind when choosing where to attach the microphone. Pause before giving a command After pressing the TALK button on the Remote Control, pause for a moment after the confirmation beep before giving your command. Speaking too soon may cause the recognition to fail. If you still experience recognition problems, leave a slightly longer pause before giving a command. Pronounce your commands carefully Speak slowly, deliberately and clearly. Fast or mumbled commands are easily misinterpreted. If the microphone is properly positioned, there is no need to raise your voice when giving commands. 171
