Frequently Used Voice Commands

[broiler]

Actually my LR3 totally cracked me up yesterday. I forgot the command for maximum zoom on the nav, and I said "Navigation, maximum zoom". It then repeated back "Navigation Mexican restaurants" and located several nearby restaurants by showing Mexican flags. Because of that, I then tried "Navigation, seafood restaurants", and that worked too!

A command I used on Sunday was great, "Navigation, gas stations" which showed me the nearest gas stations.

That's good to know! I was driving this weekend and was wondering the quickest way to find the closest rest area. I'll have to try "Navigation Rest Area."

I usually just scroll up the road for the rest area symbol (which I keep ON as a POI). I also know I can search for a type of POI, but that takes too long to do while driving and I'm guessing only works for me because of the 1791 code.

Is there a place online where you can get a list of all the available voice commands?

Yes, keep these coming. I'd like to use it more, but tend to forget.

What about "radio tune to 102.7"? I have used it a couple times. I noticed all these commands only work when no one else is talking, so it's hard when you have people in the car with you.

The only commands that I can use is - Phone Dail Name or Phone Dail Number.....

What other commands are there for a 06 SE non-navi?????

I tried the Radio Functions and they were no go!

 

[davidfkon]

i agree - I don't have a nave unit and tried the "record notepad" - only got some brittish geek saying "sorry?"

 

[BazLR3]

Do not get me wrong, I like the truck, BUT IMO, it has one the worst SATNAV units ever designed, my Garmin runs circles around it. Unfortunately, I have to live with it and it looks so ridiculous when you have two SATNAV units operating simultaneously in the car. I will have another go at the SATNAV manual, but one thing is for sure, it ain't intuitive by a long shot.

Sure, but can a Garmin do this: http://www.topspeed.com/cars/car-news/land-rover-lr3-navigates-hercules-aircraft-ar7782.html

Agreed and if it wasn't for the off-road interface, I'd probably dump it for aftermarket. Completely counter-intuitive.

JackMac - that's pretty cool, but nothing I'll ever use. Plus who's to say my Garmin won't do that?
