interior mirror instead.

pronounced fluently, with the usual empha‐
sis, and at a normal volume and speed.

guage of the voice control system.

standard pronunciation of the station name:
›Station ...‹, for example station Radio 3
▷ Doors, windows and the glass roof* should
be kept closed to avoid noise interference.
▷ Avoid background noises in the car while
