System Interaction and Feedback

The system provides feedback through audible tones, prompts, questions
and spoken confirmations depending on the situation and the chosen

recognition system to provide more or less instruction and feedback.

The default setting is to a higher level of interaction in order to help you
learn to use the system. You can change these settings at any time.
