Voice recognition system

Voice recognition system
Operating
You can operate many Infotainment functions
conveniently by speaking.
Requirement: the ignition and the MMI must be
switched on. A system language supported by
the voice recognition system must be set. There
must be no phone calls in progress and the park-
ing aid must not be active.

ing wheel and say the desired command after
the Beep.
> Switching off: press and hold the |] button, or
say the command Cancel.
> Pausing: say the command Pause. To resume,
press the |] button.
> Correcting: say the command Correction.




Input assistance
The system guides you through the input with
visual and audio feedback.
— Visual input assistance: after switching on
voice recognition, a display with a selection of
possible commands appears. The command
display can be switched on/off under [MENU] >
Settings > left control button > MMI settings >
Speech dialog system.
— Audio input assistance: to have the possible
commands read, press the [2] button on the
multifunction steering wheel briefly and say
Help.





For the system to understand you:
— 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.
— Do not speak a command when the voice recog-
nition system is making an announcement.
— 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.
104
— Do not direct the vents toward the handsfree
microphone, which is near the front interior
lights on the roof headliner or on the driver&#39;s
safety belt*. For additional information on the
safety belt microphone, see > page 122.
— Only use the system from the driver&#39;s seat be-
cause the hands-free microphone is directed to-
ward that seat.
Additional settings
See > page 172, Voice recognition system.

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.

Gi) Tips
— The dialog pauses when there is an incom-
ing phone call and will continue if you ig-
nore the call. The dialog ends if you answer
the call.
— There are no voice guidance prompts when a
dialog is active.
— You can select an item in the list using ei-
ther the voice recognition system or the
