Compass System (U.S. model without navigation system) When you speak a command, the system generally either repeats the command as a confirmation or asks you for further information. If you do not wish to hear this feedback, you can turn it off. See the Voice Recognition Feedback setting in Setup (see page 296 ). If you hear a prompt such as ''Please use the interface dial to...'' or ''Please choose an area with the interface dial.'' the system is asking for input that cannot be done by voice. Improving Voice Recognition To achieve optimum voice recognition, the following guidelines should be followed: NOTE: Make sure the correct screen is displayed for the voice command that you are using. See Voice Command Index on page 307 . Close the windows and the moonroof. The fan speed will be automatically adjusted to low. Make sure the airflow from the A/C vents does not interfere with the system microphone in the ceiling console. Place your hand over the microphone; if you feel any airflow, adjust the vents. After pressing the Talk button, wait for the beep, then give a voice command. Give a voice command in a clear, natural speaking voice without pausing between words. 306 2010 RL
