Adjusting volume
You can adjust the volume for the instructions
from the voice command system:
Turn the knob during an instruction/announce-
ment to select the desired volume.
Instructions/announcements from the voice
command system will continue at this volume
level, even if the other audio sources are set to
minimum volume.
The volume setting is stored for the remote
control currently in use.
Notes
Do not use the voice command system to
make emergency calls. Your voice and
habitual tone could be affected by stressful sit-
uations, as a result of which the process of
establishing the telephone connection could be
unnecessarily delayed. Instead, use the emer-
gency call button near the interior rearview mir-
ror, refer to page219.<
Environmental conditions
The voice command system uses a special
hands-free microphone located in the front of
your vehicle's headliner. Although the system is
designed to filter out ambient noise, you can
help ensure that your commands will be under-
stood by observing the following instructions:
>Speak smoothly and clearly, at a normal vol-
ume. Avoid excessive emphasis and
pauses.
>Do not speak while the voice command sys-
tem is itself speaking.>Keep the doors, windows and glass sunroof
closed to prevent interference from ambi-
ent noise.
>Avoid other sources of noise in the vehicle
while speaking, and ask other vehicle occu-
pants to refrain from talking while you are
using the system.
>The hands-free microphone is aimed
toward the driver. This means that the sys-
tem might not be able to register the voices
of other vehicle occupants properly.
The notepad
Recording a note
You can store roughly ten minutes of spoken
text, either as a single entry or as multiple
entries of any desired length.
To stop recording:
Press the button longer.
When recording a note, the voice com-
mand system does not hear the com-
mand {Cancel} or {Exit}. The text checking
function for command words is deactivated in
this case so that you can speak any desired text
for your notes. This feature saves you from hav-
ing to concentrate on avoiding any command
words.<
Listening to a notepad entry
To listen to recorded notepad entries:
{Record note}.
1.{Read out}.
Approximately the first 3 seconds of
the first note are read aloud.
2.After the request {{Record note, read
out note, delete note.}} select the
desired function.
>To listen to the entire note:
{Read out}.
>To listen to the next note:
{Next}.
>To listen to the note again:
{Back} or {Repeat}.

Practical interior accessories
114 Depending upon your equipment package, any
of the following may be located in the storage
compartment:
>Removable CD holder
*
>Folding, removable storage compartment*,
e.g. for glasses or mobile phone
>Folding, removable waste receptacle
*
Locking storage compartment
You can use the key to lock the storage com-
partment in the armrest.
For example at a hotel, if you want to lock
the luggage compartment lid separately,
refer to page35. Then lock the armrest storage
compartment and surrender only the remote
control without the key, refer to page30. This
prevents unauthorized access to the armrest
storage compartment and the luggage com-
partment.<
Ventilating storage compartment
You can use the knurled wheel in the storage
compartment to open and close the vent.
Depending on the automatic climate con-
trol setting, the temperature in the stor-
age compartment may be higher than in the rest
of the passenger compartment. Close the vent
as required.<
The temperature in the storage compartment
depends on the setting for the upper body area,
refer to page105.
Connection for external audio device
You can connect an external audio device such
as a CD or MP3 player and play the sound over
the vehicle's speaker system, refer to page169.

Before folding down the armrest, adjust
the head restraint to its lowest position,
refer to page48.<
To open the storage compartment:
Press the button in the handle recess and fold
up the cover.

Clothes hooks
Clothes hooks are located near the grab han-
dles in the rear.

sonal injury to occupants during braking or eva-
sive maneuvers.<
