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, see "Language" in
chapter "System settings" 3 27.Address input of destinations in
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.

62Speech 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.
Exceptions: If you want to enter
addresses in Belgium, you may
optionally change the display
language to French or Dutch. For
addresses in Switzerland you may
optionally change the display
language to French, German, or
Italian.
For changing the display language,
see "Language" in chapter "System
settings" 3 27.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.
● Austria, Germany:
● Belgium, France, Great Britain:
● Denmark, Italy, Netherlands, Poland, Portugal, Russia, Spain,
Switzerland, Turkey:

Setting up the speech recognition
Several settings and adaptions for the embedded speech recognition of the
Infotainment system can be
performed.
Press ; and select SETTINGS on
the home screen.
Select Voice item to enter the
respective submenu.Confidence Threshold
Depending on the option selected in
the corresponding submenu, the
speech recognition appears more or
less 'confident' in correctly
understanding your commands.
Confirm More : If selected, the system
asks you relatively often to confirm your commands. Consequently, the
system performs the correct action in most cases.
Confirm Less : If selected, the system
asks you less often to confirm your
voice inputs. Consequently, the
system might sometimes misinterpret your commands and not perform the
correct action.
Note
When starting to use the speech
recognition, it may be advantageous
to use the Confirm More setting. As
you get more experienced, i.e., you
get to know how to pronounce your
commands in a way the speech
recognition understands you
correctly, it may be advantageous to
use the Confirm Less setting.

Speech recognition63Prompt Length
The length and the level of detail of the questions and statements the
speech recognition gives out can be
adjusted in the corresponding
submenu.Audio Feedback Speed
The speed with which the speech
recognition asks questions or makes statements can be adjusted in the
corresponding submenu.
If Medium is selected, the system's
speech rate corresponds to natural
speech.
Note
When starting to use the speech
recognition, it may be advantageous
to use the Long setting. As you get
more experienced, it may be
advantageous to use the Short
setting.Display "What Can I Say?" Tips
Depending on whether you want
possible speech commands to be
displayed on the screen, set Display
"What Can I Say?" Tips to On or Off.Voice pass-thru application
The voice pass-thru application of the Infotainment system allows access tothe speech recognition commands on
your smartphone.
The availability of this function
depends on your smartphone. For
more information on compatibility,

pressing w on the steering wheel.
A beep is heard immediately, the
speech recognition symbol changes
to red, and a command can be stated
without having to wait.
Cancelling a dialogue sequence
There are various ways to cancel a
dialogue sequence and to deactivate
the speech recognition:
● Say " Cancel" or "Exit".
● Press n on the steering wheel.
● If the speech recognition session
was started via the VOICE

● If you say commands that are not
recognised by the system (by
default you are prompted three
times to say a correct command).
Operation via speech commands
The speech recognition can
understand commands that are either naturally stated in sentence form, or
direct commands stating the
application and the action.
For best results: ● Listen for the voice prompt and wait for the beep before saying a
command or replying.
● Say " Help" or read the example
commands on the screen.● The voice prompt can be interrupted by pressing w again.
● Wait for the beep and then speak
the command naturally, not toofast, not too slow. Use short and

followed by the artist or song name,
"Tune to" followed by the radio
waveband and frequency/station
name, or "Find address" followed by
the address e.g. "123 Main Road,
London".
In case of complex commands or
when information is missing, the
system starts a dialogue sequence.
When searching for a "Point of
Interest", only major chains may be
selected by name. Chains are
businesses with at least 20 locations.
For other POIs, say the name of a
category, e.g. "Restaurants",
"Shopping centres", or "Hospitals".
If you say "Phone" or "Phone
commands", the system understands
that a phone call is requested and
responds with relevant questions until

prompt asks to confirm or select an
item from that list. A list item may be
manually selected, or by speaking the
line number of the item.
The list on a speech recognition
screen functions the same as a list on
other screens. Manually scrolling the
list on a screen during a speech
recognition session suspends the
current speech recognition event and
plays a prompt like "Make your
selection from the list using the
manual controls, press the back
button on the faceplate, or press the
