About computer voices

The Navigation system uses text-to-speech technology and computer voices to read the 
street names on the map as it guides you on your route.

The computer voice analyzes the whole phrase or sentence before speaking, to ensure that 
the sentence sounds as close as possible to natural speech.

Computer voices can recognize and pronounce foreign towns and street names. For 
example, the English computer voice can read and pronounce French street names.

Selecting a voice

To select a different voice on the Navigation system, tap 

Voices

 in the Settings menu. Then 

tap 

Change voice

 and select the required voice.

Changing the volume level

The volume for the navigation system can be controlled in 2 different ways. They are 
independent of each other.

1. Tapping the middle part of the status (lower) bar of the driving-view.

2. Turning the volume-dial on the AUDIO while navigation-instructions are played.

Note that these changes are independent from each other. You can set the volume to very low 
on the AUDIO and full-open on the Navigation system and you will still hear little sound. We 
recommend to use only one way to change the volume. In case you hear no/little sound, 
check the volume on the navigation system and if not set to a low volume, turn the dial on the 
AUDIO while a navigation instruction is playing. Tap the middle part of the status-bar to force 
an instruction to be played.

Note:

 Computer voices are not available in all languages.

If you require a computer voice and your language is unavailable, then you need to install 
and use the English language computer voice. For more information on computer voices, 
go to www.mazdausa.com/navigation.
