Voice control
Introduction to the subject
Applies to Infotainment Columbus, Amundsen, Bolero.
The navigation, telephone, radio and media menu can be operated by voice
commands.
The voice control system can be used either by the driver or by the front pas-
senger.
Function requirements for voice control Infotainment is switched on.
There will be no telephone call using a telephone connected to Infotain-
ment.
The parking aid is not active.
Requirements for optimum voice command recognition

ences on the function of the voice control.
128Infotainment
Page 131 of 336
▶You are recommended to speak louder at higher speeds, so that the sound of
your voice is not drowned out by the increased ambient noise.
▶ During voice control, limit additional noise in the vehicle, e.g. passengers
talking at the same time.WARNINGThe emergency number must be dialled manually. Your voice commands
may not be recognized in such situations. The telephone connection may
not be established or the connection may take too much time to complete.

FM band. When the corresponding DAB station is can be received again, the
system automatically switches from FM to DAB.
If a DAB station is also not available in the FM band due to poor reception, In-

L-band
For the DAB radio reception in different countries, different broadcasting rang-
es are used. In some countries the DAB radio reception is only possible in the
so called L-band.
If no L-band DAB radio reception is possible in the country then we recom-
mend turning off the L-band. The channel scan is therefore faster.
