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

foreign countries
In case you want to enter the address
of a destination located in a foreign
country via voice input, you need to
change the language of the Info-
Display to the language of the foreign country.

42Speech recognitionE.g., if the display is currently set to
English and you want to enter the
name of a city located in France, you
need to change the display language
to French.
For changing the display language,
see "Language" in chapter "System
settings" 3 18.Input order for destination addresses
The order in which the parts of an
address need to be entered using the speech recognition system is
dependent on the country where the
destination is located.
If the speech recognition system
rejects your address entry, repeat the
command with a different order of the
address parts.
Voice pass-thru application
The voice pass-thru application of the
Infotainment system allows access to the speech recognition commands on

The Phone portal provides you with
the possibility of having mobile phone conversations via a vehicle
microphone and the vehicle
loudspeakers as well as operating the
most important mobile phone
functions via the Infotainment system in the vehicle. To be able to use the
Phone portal, the mobile phone must
be connected to the Infotainment
system via Bluetooth.
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 your
network provider.Important information for
operation and traffic safety9 Warning
Mobile phones have effects on
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
driving can be dangerous because
your concentration is reduced
when telephoning. Park your
vehicle before you use the hands- free facility. Follow the stipulations
of the country in which you find
yourself at present.
Do not forget to follow the special
regulations that apply in specific
areas and always switch off the
mobile phone if the use of mobile
phones is prohibited, if

Phone45interference is caused by the
mobile phone or if dangerous
situations can occur.
Bluetooth
The Phone portal is certified by the
Bluetooth Special Interest Group
(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-free mode, 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

Emergency call9 Warning
Connection setup cannot be
guaranteed in all situations. For
this reason you should not rely
exclusively on a mobile phone

Phone47when 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
on all mobile phone networks; it is
possible that they cannot be made when certain network services
and/or telephone functions are
active. You can enquire about this
with the local network operators.
The emergency call number can
differ depending on the region and country. Please enquire
beforehand about the correct
emergency call number for the
relevant region.
Making an emergency call
Dial the emergency call number (e.g.
112 ).
The telephone connection to the
emergency call centre is set up.

emergency call centre.
Operation
As soon as a connection via
Bluetooth has been set up between
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

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 vehicletype 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 watts
● 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

ways of using devices with a
transmission power exceeding
10 watts.
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 watts for GSM 900 or
1 watt 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.
Caution
