Voice control commands for Sensus Navigation

Several of the navigation system's functions can be activated with voice commands.
Tap PS-1926-Voice control button on the right-side steering wheel keypad and say one of the following commands:
  • "Navigation" - Starts a navigation dialog and displays examples of commands.
  • "Take me home" - Guidance is provided to the location set as Home.
  • "Go to [city]" - Inputs a city as a destination, e.g. "Go to San Francisco".
  • "Go to [address]" - Inputs an address as a destination. An address must contain city and street. e.g. "Go to Filbert Street 5, San Francisco".
  • "Add intersection" - Starts a dialog to input two streets. The destination will then be the intersection of these two streets.
  • "Go to [zip code]" - Input a zip code as the destination. e.g. "Go to 1 2 3 4 5".
  • "Go to [contact]" - Input an address from the phone book as the destination. Example "Go to Robyn Smith".
  • "Search [POI category]" - Search Points of Interest (POI) in a certain category (e.g. restaurants)1. To sort the list along the route, say "Along the route" when the list of results is displayed.
  • "Search [POI category] in [city]" - Searches for POIs in a certain category and city. The list of results is sorted based on the center point of the city. Example "Search restaurant in San Francisco".
  • "Search [POI name]". Example "Search Zuni Café".
  • "Change country/Change state2" – Changes the search area for navigation.
  • "Show favorites" – Displays stored locations in the instrument panel.
  • "Clear itinerary" - Deletes all stored waypoints and destinations in an itinerary.
  • "Repeat voice guidance" - Repeats the most recent guidance instruction.
  • "Turn off voice guidance" - Guidance off.
  • "Turn on voice guidance" - Guidance on.
The following commands can usually be used in any situation:
  • "Repeat" - repeats the most recent voice command in the current dialog.
  • "Help" - initiates a help dialog. The system responds with commands that can be used in the current situation, an instruction or an example.
  • Voice control can be canceled when the system is quiet or when it is speaking.
    • "Cancel" – cancels the dialog when the system is quiet.
    • Press and hold PS-1926-Voice control button until you hear two beeps – cancels the dialog even if the system is speaking.

Addresses

When an address is entered, the search area is defined as the search area that is preset in the navigation system. You can change to another search area. If the new search area has a different language than the set system language, the system will automatically switch to another recognition engine. Because of this, the address should be given in the language used in the new search area.

 Note

Note that addresses are searchable only for the country or state the navigation system is set to. To search for addresses in another country or state, you must first change the search area.
  1. 1 The user can choose to call the POI or enter it as a destination.
  2. 2 For European countries, "country" is used instead of "state".
