Dialogue
First read and observe the introductory information given on page 89.
The period of time during which the system is ready to receive voice commands
and to carry them out is called a dialogue. The system gives audible feedback and
guides you if necessary through the relevant functions.
Optimum understanding of the voice commands depends on several factors.
›
Speak with a normal tone of voice without intonation and excessive pauses.
›
Avoid a bad pronunciation.
›
Close the doors, windows and sliding roof, to reduce or stop disturbing exterior
noise.
›
It is recommended to speak louder at higher speeds, so that the tone of your
voice is louder than the increased surrounding noise.
›
During the dialogue, limit additional noise in the vehicle, e.g. passengers talking
at the same time.
›
Do not speak, if the system makes an announcement.
The microphone for voice control is inserted in the moulded headliner and direc-
ted to the driver and front passenger. Therefore the driver and the front passen-
ger can operate the equipment.
Entering a phone number
The telephone number can be entered as a continuous series of individually spo-
ken digits (the whole number at once) or in the form of digital blocks (separated
by short pauses). After each order of digits (separation through brief voice pause)
all of the digits detected up to now are repeated by the system.
The digits 0 - 9 , symbols +,

, # are permitted. The system detects no continuous
digit combinations such as twenty-three, but only individually spoken digits (two,
three).
