Voice recognition system

Voice recognition system
General information
Applies to: vehicles with voice recognition system
You can operate many functions in the vehicle
easily using voice commands.
Using the voice recognition system optimally
> Speak clearly and distinctly at a normal volume.
Speak louder when driving faster.
» Emphasize the words in the commands evenly
and do not leave long pauses.
> Close the doors, the windows, and the sunroof*
to reduce background noise. Make sure that
passengers are not speaking when you are giv-
ing a voice command.
> Do not direct the vents toward the hands-free
microphone, which is in the roof headliner near
the front interior lights.
> Only the driver should speak to the system, be-
cause the handsfree microphone is aimed to-
ward this seating position.

ZA\ WARNING
— Direct your full attention to driving. As the
driver, you have complete responsibility for
safety in traffic. Only use the functions in
such a way that you always maintain com-
plete control over your vehicle in all traffic
situations.
— Do not use the voice recognition system in
emergencies because your voice may change
in stressful situations. The system may take
longer to dial the number or may not be
able to dial it at all. Dial the emergency

number manually.

G) Tips
There are no voice guidance* prompts when a
dialog is active.
