The cellular phone system's voice recognition allows for hands-free dialing, storing numbers and recalling stored phone numbers. The voice recognition feature can be used when the ignition is in ACCESSORY or ON, or when Retained Accessory Power (RAP) is active.

To activate voice recognition once the phone and the vehicle are turned on, press the talk control. The system will respond with "READY," and you will be able to use the voice commands.

Once voice recognition is active, use one of the following commands to interact with the system:

The above commands are the main menu commands.

The system also recognizes the word "pound" for the pound sign (#) and the word "star" for the asterisk (*).

There are a few other commands you should know before you begin using voice recognition:

Following are some system responses that you should familiarize yourself with before using the voice recognition feature:

This command allows you to say a phone number and call that number. To place a call using the dial command, do the following:

1. After the system says "READY," say "DIAL."
2. The system will then say "NUMBER PLEASE." Slowly say the numbers one at a time. The numbers will be displayed on the DIC and confirmed with a short click.

If an incorrect number is displayed, you can say "CLEAR" and the last number will be deleted. You can then continue where you left off in the number.

3. Once you are finished saying the number, you can say one of the following: verify, dial or add. If you say, "VERIFY," the system will read the number back to you. If the number is correct, say "YES" and the system will call the number. If you respond "NO," you will return to Step 2 and have to enter the number again.

If you say "DIAL," the system will place a call to the phone number you entered displayed on the DIC without verbal verification.

If you say "ADD," the system will automatically switch to the add function of the program command and you will be prompted to enter a voice tag for the number. See "Add" under "Program Command" following for more information.

4. When you are finished with the call, press the END control.

The cellular phone system is capable of dialing up to a 32-digit phone number. Once a call is in progress, the voice recognition commands will not be available.

The program command allows you to add or delete voice tags and their corresponding phone numbers. The cellular phone system will allow for a maximum of 25 voice tags to be stored.

If the system is full and you tell the system to add, the system will say "MEMORY FULL" and will ask you if you want to add or delete a second time. If you would like to add another voice tag and number, you must delete one of the existing ones first.

If the system is empty and you tell the system to delete, the system will say "NO NUMBER" and will ask you if you want to add or delete a second time.

Add

Follow these steps to add a voice tag and its assigned phone number:

1. After the system says "READY," say "PROGRAM."
2. The system will then say "ADD OR DELETE." Say "ADD."
3. Next the system will ask for the "NUMBER TO ADD." Slowly say the numbers and pauses (if applicable) one at a time. The numbers will be displayed on the DIC and confirmed with a short click.

If an incorrect number is displayed, you can say "CLEAR" and the last number will be deleted. You can then continue where you left off in the number.

4. Once you are finished saying the number, say "VERIFY" and the system will then say "SAVING (numbers) OK?"
5. If the number is correct say "YES" and the system will say "NAME PLEASE." If you respond "NO," you will return to Step 3 and have to enter the number again.
6. When the system asks for the name, respond with the voice tag you would like assigned to the phone number you just entered. The system will ask for the name three times. The first two times are used for the system to learn the word and the last time is for the voice tag to be recorded. The system will then say "(voice tag) ADDED" and return to Step 3.
7. Repeat the steps to add more numbers to memory.
8. Press the END control or say "STOP" while voice recognition is active to exit the Program menu and return to the main menu.

When a voice tag and phone number is saved, a memory location number will also be saved corresponding to the order the voice tags and numbers were added.

If the add process is interrupted at any point, the voice tag will not be saved. Repeat the steps to add the tag to memory.

Delete

Follow these steps to delete a voice tag and its assigned phone number:

1. After the system says "READY," say "PROGRAM."
2. The system will then say "ADD OR DELETE." Say "DELETE."
3. Next the system will ask for the "LOCATION PLEASE." Give the system the memory location that was saved when you added the voice tag and phone number to the system. Say both digits of the number, for example say the words "zero, six" for memory location 06 or the words "one, seven" for memory location 17.
4. Once you are finished saying the number, the system will say "DELETING (voice tag) OK?" If the memory location is empty, the system will say "NO NUMBER" and will return to Step 2.
5. If the memory location and voice tag are correct, say "YES" and the system will say "(voice tag) DELETED." If you respond "NO," you will return to Step 3 and have to enter the memory location number again.
6. Repeat the steps to delete more numbers from memory.
7. Press the END control or say "STOP" to exit the Program menu and return to the main menu.

The call command allows you to call a number you have previously programmed by saying the voice tag assigned to it.

Follow these steps to call a number by saying its assigned voice tag:

1. After the system says "READY," say "CALL."
2. The system will say "NAME PLEASE." Respond with the voice tag previously assigned to the number you wish to call.
3. The system will then say "CALLING (voice tag) OK?" If the voice tag is correct say "YES" and the system will call the number assigned to that voice tag.

If you respond "NO," the system will search for the next closest match. The system will repeat this step two times unless a correct match is found. If the third time a match is still not found, the system will return to Step 2.

4. When you are finished with the call press the END control.

The directory command instructs the system to audibly list all the voice tags that have been programmed. You can also make a call while the list is being played. To use the playback feature, do the following:

1. After the system says "READY," say "DIRECTORY."
2. The system will begin listing all programmed voice tags with a two second delay between each. At any time during playback, you can press the steering wheel control with the talk symbol on it to call the last voice tag that was spoken.
3. The system will then say "CALLING (voice tag) OK?" If the voice tag is correct say "YES," and the system will call the number assigned to that voice tag.

If you say "NO," the system will say "READY" and will be at the voice recognition main menu.

Playback can be cancelled by pressing the END control during playback.

If no calls are made from playback, when the list is over the system will say "READY" and will be at the voice recognition main menu.

Use the re-dial command to instruct the system to call the last number you called again.

If you say "HELP" while in voice recognition, the system will repeat the main menu commands.

Voice recognition will be ended if one of the following occurs:

Depending upon which situation ended the voice recognition session, you may hear "CANCELLED."
