the digits 0 - 9 may be used.

ters at a time.
Speak each individual letter clearly.

What to do if ...
ProblemPossible cause/consequenceSuggested solution
Voice Control System does not recognize a
station list entry.The voice entries for the station names
sound too similar.When you create your address book en-
tries, select names with the greatest
possible acoustic differences.
Speak the command “List station list”.
The system reads out the station list en-
try by entry.
Press ! when the desired station
name is being read out.
The station is selected (
page 311).
Should interference occur during the pro-
cess of storing a name, the Voice Control
System prompts you to repeat your voice
entry a third and fourth time. If the interfer-
ence continues, the dialog is stopped.Both voice entries differ.Pronounce the voice entries both times
in the same manner.

Voice Control* troubleshooting
ProblemPossible cause/consequenceSuggested solution
Voice Control System does not recognize
commands.You have not operated the system from the
driver’s seat.Operate the Voice Control System only
by the driver as the microphone is
geared to the driver side.
You have spoken unclearly, too loudly or
too quietly.Speak the commands in a continuous
manner using a normal tone.
A blower is set to the highest setting, vents
are pointed at microphones or wind noise is
being created through open windows.Avoid loud disturbances.
Voice Control System does not recognize a
address book entry.The voice entries in the address book sound
too similar.When you create your address book en-
tries, select names with the greatest
possible acoustic differences: If for ex-
ample you have the names Smith and
Schmidt, choose for example “Smith
work” or “Schmidt John”.
Speak the command “List phone book”.
The system reads out the address book
entry by entry.
Press! when the desired entry is
being read out.
The entry is selected and the corre-
sponding number is dialed
(
page 295).
