Usage .......................................... 81General information
Embedded speech recognition
The embedded speech recognition of
the Infotainment system enables you to operate various functions of the
Infotainment system via voice input. It recognises commands and numeric
sequences independently of the
relevant speaker. The commands
and numeric sequences can be
spoken without a voice pause
between the individual words.
In the event of incorrect operation or
commands, the speech recognition
gives visual and / or acoustic
feedback and requests you to re-
enter the desired command. Apart
from this, the speech recognition
acknowledges important commands
and will enquire if necessary.
In general, there are different ways to
speak commands for performing the
desired actions.
Note
To ensure that conversations inside
the vehicle do not lead to
unintentional triggering of thesystem functions, the speech
recognition does not start until it has
been activated.
Important informationLanguage support ● Not all languages available for the display of the Infotainment
system are also available for the
speech recognition.
● If the display language currently selected is not supported by the
speech recognition, speech
recognition is not available.
In such a case, you need to select
another language for the display
if you want to control the
Infotainment system via voice
input. To change the display
language 3 68.
Voice pass-thru application
The voice pass-thru application of the
Infotainment system allows access to the speech recognition commands on
your smartphone.

Not all phone functions are supported
by every mobile phone. The usable
phone functions depend on the
relevant mobile phone and network
provider. You can find further
information on this in the operating
instructions for your mobile phone, or you can enquire about them with yournetwork provider.Important information for

your environment. For this reason safety regulations and directions
have been prepared. You should
be familiar with the related
directions before you use the
telephone function.
9 Warning
Use of the hands-free facility while

(SIG).
You can find further information about the specification on the internet at
http://www.bluetooth.com.
Bluetooth connection
Bluetooth is a radio standard for the
wireless connection of e.g. mobile
phones, smartphones or other
devices.
Pairing a device
During the pairing process, PIN code
exchange between the Bluetooth
device and the Infotainment system and connection of the Bluetooth
devices to the Infotainment system
are carried out.
Important information
● Two paired Bluetooth devices can be connected to the
Infotainment system at the same time. One device in hands-freemode, the other in audio
streaming mode, see description
on Bluetooth profile settings
below.
However, two devices cannot be
used in hands-free mode at the
same time.
● Pairing only needs to be carried out once, unless the device is
deleted from the list of paired
devices. If the device has been connected previously, the
Infotainment system establishes
the connection automatically.
● Bluetooth operation considerably
drains the device's battery.
Therefore, connect the device to
the USB port for charging.Pairing a new device

Connection setup cannot be
guaranteed in all situations. For
this reason you should not rely
exclusively on a mobile phone
when a vitally important
communication (e.g. a medical
emergency) is concerned.
In some networks it may be
necessary for a valid SIM card to
be properly inserted in the mobile
phone.
9 Warning
Bear in mind that you can make
and receive calls with the mobile
phone if it is in a service area with a sufficiently strong signal. Under
certain circumstances,
emergency calls cannot be made

your mobile phone and the
Infotainment system, you can operate many functions of your mobile phone
via the Infotainment system.
Note
In the hands-free mode, mobile
phone operation is still possible, e.g.
taking a call or adjusting the volume.
After setup of a connection between
the mobile phone and the
Infotainment system, mobile phone data is transmitted to the Infotainment
system. This can take some time
depending on the mobile phone and
the amount of data to be transferred.
During this period, operation of the

equipment
Installation instructions and
operating guidelines
The vehicle specific installation
instructions and the operating
guidelines of the mobile phone and
hands-free manufacturer must be
observed when installing and
operating a mobile telephone. Failure to do so could invalidate the vehicle
type approval (EU directive 95/54/
EC).
Recommendations for fault-free
operation:
● Professionally installed exterior antenna to obtain the maximum
range possible
● Maximum transmission power 10 W
● Installation of the phone in a suitable spot, consider relevant
Note in the Owner's Manual,
section Airbag system .Seek advice on predetermined
installation points for the external
antenna or equipment holder and
ways of using devices with a
transmission power exceeding 10 W.
Use of a hands-free attachment
without external antenna with mobile
telephone standards GSM
900/1800/1900 and UMTS is only
permitted if the maximum
transmission power of the mobile
telephone is 2 W for GSM 900 or
1 W for the other types.
For reasons of safety, do not use the
phone while driving. Even use of a hands-free set can be a distraction
while driving.9 Warning
Operation of radio equipment and
mobile telephones which fail to
meet above mentioned mobile
telephone standards is only
permitted using an antenna
located outside of the vehicle.
