How To Call Out Using Just The Name


Recommended Posts

Does anyone know the individual steps (and screens) that are necessary to make a NAV bluetooth telephone call just by using just the persons name?

I know that it's in the manual, but I must be missing something. I am able to make calls by number, but that defeats the hands-off eyes-off concept.

I have tried search, but no answers.

If you can help, I will name my first born after you.

Voice Commands - see toward the bottom of the list. There's another step in the manual where you have to first record the name into the system so it recognizes it.

(do your first born a favor and do not name it after me.)

It really is annoying - in most other vehicle brands, you just say "Call Joe" and it does it. Is there any way to advise Lexus of things like this for future updates?
