Control Center
The concept
The Control Center has been designed to
avoid the unnecessary complexity created
by an extended number of switches and
controls. It consists of the controller and
the Control Display.
The controller is used to select the func-
tions that will appear on the Control Dis-
play. In addition, it also shows you the
Check Control messages, refer to page83.
Controls
1Controller: you operate all the functions
in the Control Center by moving, turning
and pressing.
If you move the controller
>you feel the mechanical guides along
the main direction of movement.
This makes it easier for you to select
the right main menus
>If you turn the controller, you feel an
electronically created rasterizing.
This helps you to select the desired
menu item
2Button for opening the start menu from
any menu item
3Individual button assignmentTo avoid posing an unnecessary haz-
ard, both to your own vehicle's occu-
pants and to other road users: never

Voice command
28
Notes
Do not use the voice command sys-
tem to make emergency calls. Your
voice and habitual tone could be affected
by stressful situations, as a result of which
the process of establishing the telephone
connection could be unnecessarily
delayed. Instead, use the emergency call
button near the interior rearview mirror,
refer to page177.<
Environmental conditions
The voice command system uses a special
hands-free microphone located in the front
of your vehicle's headliner. Although the
system is designed to filter out ambient
noise, you can help ensure that your com-
mands will be understood by observing the
following instructions:
>Speak smoothly and clearly, at a normal
volume. Do not place any unusual
stress on individual syllables, and avoid
pauses
>Do not speak while the voice command
system is talking
>Keep the doors, windows and glass
roof closed to prevent interference from
ambient noise
>Avoid other sources of noise in the vehi-
cle while speaking, and ask other vehi-
cle occupants to refrain from talking
while you are using the system
>The hands-free microphone is aimed
toward the driver. This means that the
system might not be able to register the
voices of other vehicle occupants prop-
erly.

ing function for command words is deacti-

the luggage compartment lid and discon-
nects it from the central locking system.

If an electrical defect occurs, refer to
Opening separately.
Opening from inside
You can use this button to open the lug-
gage compartment lid when the vehicle is
stationary. This is not possible, if the lug-
gage compartment lid has been locked
separately.

inside trim on the luggage compartment lid
to make it easier to pull down.
Comfort Access*
If a remote control is detected in the
luggage compartment after the lug-
gage compartment lid has been closed, the

merely press it down gently. The closing
process will then be carried out automati-
cally.
To avoid personal injury, always
ensure that no individuals are within

pletely closed. Otherwise, exhaust fumes
could penetrate the interior of the vehicle.<
If special circumstances should make it
absolutely necessary to operate the vehicle
with the luggage compartment lid open:
>Close all windows and the glass roof
>Adjust the automatic climate control's
blower to supply a high rate of airflow,
refer to page105.
