How to help the system understand you
Speak clearly in a normal volume. Speak louder if
you are driving fast.
Speak in a normal tone without long pauses.
Avoid speaking when the speech dialogue system
is saying a cue.
Close doors, windows and sun roof* to reduce
background noise. Make sure that passengers are
not talking when you say a command.
Keep the air outlets of the air distribution system
pointed away from the microphone, which is fit
ted in the vicinity of the front interior lights in

The system should only be operated by the driver,
since the handsfree microphone is directed to
wards the driver.
