Dialogue – version 1Fig. 83
Multifunction steering wheel: Voice control
First read and observe the introductory information given on page 90.
The period of time during which the system is ready to receive voice commands and to carry them out is called "dialogue". The system gives audible feedback and
guides you through the relevant functions if necessary.
Optimum understanding of the voice commands depends on several factors.
› Speak at a normal volume without intonation or excessive pauses.
› Avoid poor pronunciation.
› Close the doors, windows and sliding roof in order to reduce or eliminate dis-
turbing noise from outside.
› It is recommended to speak louder at higher speeds, so that your voice is louder
than the increased surrounding noise.
› During the dialogue, limit background noise in the vehicle, e.g. passengers talk-
ing at the same time.
› Do not speak when the system is making an announcement.
The microphone for voice control is housed in the moulded headliner and directed
towards the driver and front passenger. Therefore, the driver and the front pas-
senger can operate the equipment. 

ken one after the other (the whole number at once) or in the form of digit blocks
(separated by short pauses). After each string of digits (separated by a brief pause
in speaking), all of the digits detected up to now are repeated by the system.
The digits 0-9 and symbols +, , # are permitted. The system does not recognize
any combination of connected numbers, e.g. "twenty-three".

What influences the driving safety?
First read and observe the introductory information and safety warn-ings
on page 126.
The driver is fully responsible for himself and his occupants. If your driving safety
is effected, you place yourself and the oncoming traffic at risk.
The following guidelines must therefore be observed. › Do not become distracted from concentrating on the traffic situation, e.g. by
your passengers or mobile phone calls.
› Never drive when your driving ability is impaired, e.g. due to medication, alcohol
or drugs.
› Keep to the traffic regulations and the permissible speed limit.
› Always adjust the driving speed to the road, traffic and weather conditions.
› Take regular breaks on long journeys – at least every two hours.

Correct seated position

Introduction
This chapter contains information on the following subjects:
Correct seated position for the driver
128
Correct seated position for the front passenger
128
Correct seated position for the passengers in the rear seats
128
Examples of incorrect seated positions
129WARNINGGeneral information■The front seats and head restraints must be adjusted to match the body
size at all times and the seat belt must always be fastened properly to provide the most effective levels of protection to the passengers.■
If the occupant adopts an incorrect seated position, he is exposed to life-
threatening injuries, in case he is hit by a deployed airbag.
■
If the occupants on the rear seats are not sitting upright, the risk of injury is
increased due to incorrect routing of the seat belt.
■
The seat backrests must not be tilted too far back when driving, as this will
impair the function of the seat belts and of the airbag system – risk of injury!
WARNINGInformation for the driver■Always assume the correct seated position before setting off and do not
change this position while driving. Also advise your passengers to adopt the
correct seated position and not to change this position while the car is mov-
ing.■
Maintain a distance of at least 25 cm to the steering wheel. Not maintaining
this minimum distance will mean that the airbag system will not be able to
properly protect you - hazard!
■
When driving, hold the steering wheel with both hands firmly on the outer
edge in the 9 o'clock and 3 o'clock position. Never hold the steering wheel in
the 12 o'clock position or in any other way (e.g. in the middle or inner edge of
the steering wheel). In such cases, you could severely injure the arms, hands
and head when the driver airbag is deployed.
■
Ensure that there are no objects in the driver's footwell as they may get
caught behind the pedals when driving or applying the braking. You would then no longer be able to operate the clutch, brake or accelerate. 

Front airbagsFig. 119
Driver's airbag in the steering wheel/front passenger airbag in the
dash panel
Fig. 120
Safe distance to steering wheel/inflated airbags
First read and observe the introductory information given on page 136.
In the event of a severe frontal collision, the front airbag system offers additional
protection for the head and chest area of the driver and front passenger.
The front airbag for the driver is located in the steering wheel » Fig. 119 - 
.
The front airbag for the front seat passenger is located in the dash panel above
the storage compartment » Fig. 119 - 
.
When the airbags are deployed, they inflate in front of the driver and front pas- senger » Fig. 120 -
 . The forward movement of the driver and of the front pas-
senger is cushioned when they make contact with the fully inflated airbag and
the risk of injury to head and chest is thus reduced.
WARNINGCorrect seated position■It is important that the driver and front passenger maintain a distance of at
least 25 cm to the steering wheel or dashboard A
» Fig. 120 . Not maintaining
this minimum distance will mean that the airbag system will not be able to
properly protect you – hazard! The front seats and the head restraints must always also be correctly adjusted to match the body size of the occupant.
■
The airbag develops enormous forces when triggered, which can lead to in-
juries if the sitting position or seated position is not correct.
■
There must not by any further persons, animals or objects positioned be-
tween the front seated occupants and the deployment area of the airbag.
WARNINGFront airbag and transporting children■Never transport children on the front seat of a vehicle without using a prop-
er restraint system. If airbags are deployed in the event of an accident, the
child might suffer severe or even fatal injuries!■
The front passenger airbag must be deactivated if using a rear-facing child
seat on the front passenger seat » page 139, Deactivating airbags . If this is
not done, there is a risk of the child suffering severe or even fatal injuries if
the front passenger airbag is deployed. When transporting a child on the front
passenger seat, pay attention to any relevant national regulations regarding
the use of child safety seats.
WARNINGGeneral■The steering wheel and the surface of the airbag module in the dash panel
on the passenger side must not have stickers attached, be covered or modi-
fied in any other way. These parts should only be cleaned with a cloth that is
dry or has been moistened with water. No objects such as cup holders, mobile
phone mounts, etc. must be attached to the covers of the airbag modules or
be located within their immediate vicinity.■
Never place objects on the surface of the front passenger airbag module in
the dash panel.
