Press and hold the button to cancel the voice operation mode. For voice recognition to operate correctly Voice navigation may not operate correctly, depending on the situation in which it is used. For voice recognition to operate correctly, make sure that you read the following provisions. aMount the microphone in a suitable loca- tion. Mount the microphone where the driver's voice can be picked up clearly. Adjust the distance between microphone and the driver's position so that the driver has no difficulty speaking into the microphone. For installation details, refer to the supplied Installation Manual. aLower the volume of the car audio. To ensure your voice is recognized, reduce the car audio volume (radio, etc.) as necessary. aClose the windows. Make sure all windows are closed during voice operation as ambient, engine or wind noise may interfere with recognition. aSpeak clearly. Speak directly into the microphone, at suitable pace, avoiding long pauses. aOnly use the specified voice commands. The system only recognizes these commands. Also, make sure you use the correct pronunciation for point of interest names. aDo not converse when speaking a voice command. Your voice may not be recognized if you mix regular conversation with voice commands. aMaintain a natural driving posture while speaking voice commands, so that you can hold the steering wheel in the usual way, without the need to lean in towards the microphone to speak. aAny accent in your voice may not be recognized. Therefore, always speak the commands clearly. a If the IN-INT cable (supplied with the Alpine head unit) is connected, volume is automatically lowered by the mute cable connection. For connection, refer to the extra Installation Manual. Tips a If your voice is not recognized, change the location of the microphone. Your voice recognition may be improved. a Voice guidance is not carried out in the voice operation mode. 14
