Navigation
GWarning!
For safety reasons, you should only select a
destination when the vehicle is stationary.
While the navigation system provides
Navigation189Voice ControlZ
Page 192 of 224

directional assistance, the driver must remain
focused on safe driving behavior, especially
pay attention to traffic and street signs, and
should utilize the system’s audio cues while
driving.
The navigation system does not supply any
information on stop signs, yield signs, traffic
regulations or traffic safety rules. Their
observance always remains in the driver’s
personal responsibility. DVD maps do not
cover all areas nor all routes within an area.
Traffic regulations always have priority over
any route recommendations given. Bear in
mind that at a speed of just 30 mph
(approximately 50 km/h), your vehicle is
covering a distance of 44 feet (approximately
14 m) every second.
During route guidance, you will not receive
information on:
R traffic lights
R stop and yield signs
R parking or stopping zones
R one-way streets
R narrow bridges
R other traffic regulation data
You should therefore always strictly observe
traffic regulations while driving. Drive
carefully and always obey traffic laws and
road signs, even if they contradict navigation
system instructions.GWarning
Navigation announcements are intended to
direct you while driving without diverting your
attention from the road and driving.
Please always use this feature instead of
consulting the map display for directions.
Consulting the symbols or map display for
directions may cause you to divert your
attention from driving and increase your risk
of an accident.
GWarning!
Please do not use the Voice Control System
in an emergency, as the tone of your voice
may change in a stressful situation. This could
cause a delay in completing your phone call
in a timely manner. This could distract you in
an emergency situation and cause you to be
involved in an accident.

Address Book
GWarning!
Please devote your attention first and
foremost to the traffic situation you are in.
Before your journey, please familiarize
yourself with the address book functions.
Only use the Voice Control System when road
and traffic conditions permit you to do so.
Otherwise you could be involved in an
accident in which you or others could be
injured.
Overview
The address book gives you the option of
storing information about people in the form
of entries.
Using voice control, you can dial a phone
number stored in the address book or start
route guidance for a stored address.
Apart from the speaker-dependent voice tags
stored in the address book, voice control can
recognize all the entries in the name fields of
the address book. Recognition of the entries
in the address book depends on the text that
was entered. To make a call you must say the
text of the entry.
Check the address book entries for the
following:
Address Book197Voice ControlZ
Page 200 of 224

RThe name entries, e.g. last name and first
name, are in the right fields.
R Do not use abbreviations or acronyms.
R Avoid unnecessary spaces in names.
R Do not use special characters.
You can improve voice recognition by saving
a speaker-dependent voice tag for address
book entries.
Use a speaker-dependent voice tag:
R for names which are difficult to pronounce
R to distinguish names which sound similar
R for names which are not pronounced as
they are written
Voice control can store up to 50 of these
address book entries by means of a speaker-
dependent voice tag.
Operation
You can use voice control at any time to:
R save a name
R select a name
R delete a name
R list the address book
R delete the address book
R open the address book
R open an entry from the address book
R list the phone book
R list the destination memory

XUsing the “Help address book” command,
you can have all the essential commands
for the address book read out.
“Save Name”
Use the “Save name” command to save a
phone number with a voice tag for a specific
speaker. Use this command for a name which
is complicated or which is pronounced
differently as it is spelled, for example,
because it is a foreign name. When you have
given the command “Save Name”, voice
control prompts you to enter a phone
number.
i This function is only possible if a mobile
phone is connected to COMAND.
The digits 0 to 9 and the word “Plus” are
permitted.
“ Plus” replaces the international dialing code,
e.g. “00”.
Say the phone number in the form of a
continuous string of digits or as blocks of
digits, e.g. three to five digits.
Voice control repeats the digits it recognizes
after each block of digits (with a pause of
198Address BookVoice Control
Page 201 of 224

about half a second between each block of
digits) and waits for you to continue speaking.
When you have given the command “Okay”,
voice control prompts you two or three times
to say the name. When repeating the name,
make sure that you pronounce it in exactly
the same way as you did the first time.
Otherwise, the name cannot be saved and
voice control aborts the saving procedure.
