Voice recognition system
What is voice recognition?
Voice recognition technology runs the system as ordered by recognizing your voice command to ensure the safe operation of media while you are driving the car. Regretfully, not all possible voice commands are recognized by the system due to technological limitations. To make up for these limitations, the system displays the voice commands that are available for you to use.
There are errors in communication between people. Likewise, voice recognition sometimes misunderstands your voice command in some circumstances. If this happens, either check the screen for the available options and say the command again or manually select and press the button for the corresponding command on the screen.
Voice recognition features by language
Voice recognition support availability varies according to the language set for the system.
Please verify the currently set language before using the voice recognition.
- If you change the language set for the system to the Slovak language, Slovenian, Ukrainian, Korean or Hungarian, voice recognition will not be supported. Change the system language to other languages.
- Navigation command that excludes “Search address/Find POI/Find <Category>” supports Greek, Portuguese, Polish, Swedish, Turkish, Czech, Danish and Norwegian. Change the system language to other languages.
Operating voice command
Condition for a voice command system
Most of the functions can be operated by voice. Please follow the following instructions for optimal voice recognition performance.
- Close all windows and the sunroof. The performance of the voice recognition can be improved if the environment of the car interior is quiet.
- Press the voice recognition button and say the desired voice command after the sound of the beep.
- The microphone is positioned above the driver so that voice commands should be spoken with the driver’s proper posture.
- Pronounce the voice commands naturally and clearly as if in a normal conversation.
- Special symbols of phonebook names are not considered in voice recognition. Ex) James-Smith: “James Smith”

- Depending on the specifications, some commands may not be supported.
