7-78 Infotainment System Helpful Hints for Speaking Commands . . Canceling Voice Recognition 1. Press and release the $ i steering wheel button to cancel a command, or if the system response does not match the verbal command. 2. The system replies, "Voice recognition canceled." Pressing any other radio or steering wheel control, other than the volume knob or the volume steering wheel button cancels the session. 3. Press and release the b g steering wheel button to restart the voice recognition session. When multiple commands are available, choose the command that best works for you. Words that are in brackets are optional. For example, for the command "Radio (band) FM," saying "Radio FM" or "Radio Band FM" are both valid commands. Words separated by a ( / ) mean there is a choice of using a word on either side of the slash. For example, for the command (CD/DVD/Disc) (help), you can say "CD (help)" or "DVD (help)" or "Disc (help)." When the system recognizes the command, the system will either perform the function or ask to confirm the choice by clearly saying "yes" or "no." . . When the system does not recognize the command, the system issues an error message such as "pardon" or "command not recognized." The system could also say, "voice recognition canceled." If experiencing difficulty with the system recognizing a command, confirm that the command is correct. Try saying the command clearly or wait for a brief moment after the beep. Background noise such as a climate control fan positioned on high, open windows, and very loud outside noises, even if the windows are closed, can cause voice commands to be misunderstood. . . .
