Voice Recognition

Learning Function

(Speaker Enrollment)

The voice recognition learning function
enables voice recognition appropriate to
the characteristics of the user's voice. If
the recognition of the voice input
commands to the system is not adequate,
this function can largely improve the
system's voice recognition of the user. If
your voice can be recognized sufficiently
without using this function, you may not
realize the added benefit of the function.
To register your voice, the voice input
command list must be read out. Read out
the list when the vehicle is parked.
Perform the registration in as quiet a place
as possible (page 5-56). The registration
must be performed completely. The
required time is a few minutes. The user
needs to be seated in the driver's seat with
the voice input command list for voice
recognition learning visible.

▼ When voice recognition learning is

done for the first time

1. Press the pick-up button or talk button

with a short press.

2. Say: [Beep] “Voice training”
3. Prompt: “This operation must be

performed in a quiet environment
while the vehicle is stopped. See the
owner's manual for the list of required
training phrases. Press and release the
talk button when you are ready to
begin. Press the hang-up button to
cancel at any time.”

4. Press the talk button with a short press.

Voice input command list for voice
recognition learning

When reading out, the following points
must be observed:

•

Read out the numbers one at a time
correctly and naturally.
(For example, “1234” must be read out
“one, two, three, four” not “twelve,
thirty four”.)

•

Do not read out parentheses. “(” and
hyphens “-” are used for separating
numbers in a phone number.

Ex.
“(888) 555-1212” must be spoken “Eight,
eight, eight, five, five, five, one, two, one,
two.”
