■ During station search the Infotainment system tunes in to
RDS stations only.
■ The Infotainment system always tunes in to the best receivable
broadcasting frequency of the set
station by means of AF (Alternative Frequency).
■ Depending on the station that is received the Infotainment system
displays radio text that can contain,
for example, information on the
current programme.

Radio29
General information■ DAB stations are indicated by the programme name instead of the
broadcasting frequency.
■ With DAB, several radio programmes (services) can be
broadcasted on a single frequency (ensemble).
■ Besides high-quality digital audio services, DAB is also able to
transmit programme-associated
data and a multitude of other data
services including travel and traffic
information.
■ As long as a given DAB receiver can pick up the signal sent out by a
broadcasting station (even if the signal is very weak), sound
reproduction is ensured.
■ There is no fading (weakening of the sound) that is typical of AM or
FM reception. The DAB signal is
reproduced at a constant volume.
■ Interference caused by stations that are on nearby frequencies (aphenomenon that is typical of AM
and FM reception) does not occur with DAB.If the DAB signal is too weak to bepicked up by the receiver, the
system switches over to the same
programme on another DAB or FM
station.
■ If the DAB signal is reflected by natural obstacles or buildings, the
reception quality of DAB is
improved, whereas AM or FM
reception is considerably impaired
in such cases.
■ When DAB reception is enabled, the FM tuner of the Infotainmentsystem remains active in the
background and continually
searches for the best receivable FM stations. If TP 3 27 is activated,
traffic announcements of the FM
station which is currently best
received are issued. Deactivate TP,
if DAB reception should not be
interrupted by FM traffic
announcements.
DAB announcements
Besides their music programmes, lots of DAB stations also broadcast
announcements of various
categories.While being in the DAB main menu,
press the multifunction knob to open
the DAB menu and then select
Announcements .
If you activate some or all categories, the currently received DAB service is
interrupted when an announcement
of these categories is made.
Activate the desired categories.

56Speech recognition
In such a case you must select
another language for the display if you want to control the Infotainment
system via voice input. Changing
the display language, see
"Language" in chapter "System
settings" 3 21.
Address input for destinations in
foreign countries
In case you want to enter the address
of a destination located in a foreign
country via voice input, you must
change the language of the
Infotainment display to the language
of the foreign country.
E.g. if the display is currently set to
English and you want to enter the
name of a city located in France, you
must change the display language to
French.
Exceptions: If you want to enter
addresses in Belgium, you may
optionally change the display
language to French or Dutch. For
addresses in Switzerland you may
optionally change the display
language to French, German, or
Italian.For changing the display language,
see "Language" in chapter "System
settings" 3 21.
Input order for destination addresses The order in which the parts of an
address must be entered using the
speech recognition system is
dependent on the country where the
destination is located.
An example for the respective input
order is given out by the system.
Voice pass-thru application
The voice pass-thru application of the Infotainment system allows access to
the speech recognition commands on your smartphone. See the operating
instructions for your smartphone to
find out whether your smartphone
supports this feature.Usage
Embedded speech recognitionActivating speech recognition Notice
Speech recognition is not available
during an active phone call.
Press w on the right side of the
steering wheel.
The audio system mutes, w on the
display is highlighted, and a voice
output message prompts you to say a command.
As soon as the speech recognition is
ready for voice input, a beep is heard.
You can now say a voice command to directly initiate a system function
(e.g. playing a radio station), or to
start a dialogue sequence with
several dialogue steps (e.g. entering a destination address), see
"Operation via speech commands"
further below.
Page 57 of 121
Speech recognition57
After a dialogue sequence is finished,
the speech recognition is deactivated
automatically. To initiate another
dialogue sequence, you must activate the speech recognition again.
Adjusting the volume of voice
prompts
Press w or ─ on the right side of the
steering wheel.
Interrupting a voice prompt
As an experienced user, you can
interrupt a voice prompt by briefly
pressing w on the steering wheel.
A beep is heard immediately, and a
command can be stated without
having to wait.
Cancelling a dialogue sequence
There are several possibilities to
cancel a dialogue sequence and to
deactivate the speech recognition:
■ Say " Cancel" or "Exit".
■ Press n on the right side of the
steering wheel.In the following situations, a dialogue
sequence is automatically cancelled:
■ If you do not say any commands for
some time (by default you are
prompted three times to say a
command).
■ If you say commands that are not recognised by the system (by
default you are prompted three
times to say a correct command).
Operation via speech commands
The speech recognition can
understand commands that are either
naturally stated in sentence form, or
direct commands stating the
application and the task.
For best results: ■ Listen for the voice prompt and wait
for the beep before saying a
command or replying.
■ Say " Help" if you want to listen
again to the help prompt for the
current dialogue step.■ The voice prompt can be interrupted by pressing w again. If
you wish to directly speak your
command, press w twice.
■ Wait for the beep and then speak the command naturally. In most
cases, recognition rates will be
higher if pauses are kept to a
minimum. Use short and direct
commands.
Usually phone and audio commands
can be spoken in a single command.
For example, "Call David Smith at
work", "Play" followed by the artist or
song name, or "Tune to" followed by
the radio frequency and the
waveband.
Navigation destinations, however,
are too complex for a single
command. First, state "Navigation" and then, e.g. "Address" or "Point of
Interest". The system responds with
requesting more details.
After saying "Point of Interest", only
major chains may be selected by
name. Chains are businesses with at
least 20 locations. For other POIs,
