Notes on optimal use of the Voice Control
System
Notes on how to improve recognition:

page 296).
R
Only operate the Voice Control System from
the driver's seat.
R
Say the voice commands coherently and
clearly, but do not exaggerate the words.
R
Avoid loud noises that cause interference
while making a voice command entry, e.g.
the entertainment in the rear passenger
compartment.
R
For telephone or address book entries:
-
Only create sensible address book entries
in the system/mobile phone, e.g. enter
surname and first name in the correct
field.
-
Do not use any abbreviations, unneces‐
sary spaces or special characters.
R
For radio station names: say the Read out
station list voice command and say the
desired station name in the way the voice
output reads aloud to you.
% To improve recognition, depending on the
outside temperature, either the blowers for
ventilation or heating are reduced when the
Voice Control System is started.
Information on online voice control
Online voice control improves recognition and
makes additional results available as a result of
external information, e.g. information about POIs
and about the weather. We therefore recom‐
mend that you activate online voice control.
You will need a Mercedes me user account for
this. If you do not yet have a user account you
have to create one and connect it with your vehi‐
cle (

page 328).
Then call up your Mercedes me user account.
The Mercedes me services are shown and can
be activated (
/
page 329).
In addition, online voice control must be activa‐
ted (

page 296).
Essential voice commands
Notes on the voice commands
Aside from the exact voice commands (see the
"Voice command" column in the following tables)
to call up specific functions, in most cases the
Voice Control System also understands a great
many paraphrases from daily usage. Examples of
these are listed in the "Colloquial examples" col‐
umn. For some languages however these exam‐
ples are only available to a limited extent.
% Content in angled brackets, e.g. <POI> or
<contact>, is a placeholder which has to be
completed by you with the desired term. The
voice command Set <POI> as intermediate
destination could, for example, be completed
with: Set Mercedes-Benz Arena as intermedi-
ate destination .
