DialogueThe period, in which the telephone system is ready to receive voice commands and carry out the voice commands, is called DI
ALOGUE. The system gives audible feedback
and guides you if necessary through the relevant functions. You can start or end the dialogue at
any time by pressing the PTT button
on the
adapter*
⇒page 132, fig. 129
or on the multifunction steering wheel*
⇒page 131 or
end it with the voice command
CANCEL
.
The dialogue is always automatically ended after carrying out an operation, e.g. after erasing the name from the phonebook. When receiving an incoming call, the dialog
ue is immediately in
terrupted and you can
accept the call by pressing the button°
on the multifunction steering wheel*
⇒ page 131 or by pressing the button for re
ceiving a call directly on your telephone.
If a voice command is not detected, the system answers with “
Sorry?
” and a new entry
can be performed. After the 2nd error the system repeats the aid. After the 3rd error the answer “
Cancel
” is given and the dialogue is ended.
Optimum understanding of the voice commands depends on the following factors:•
Speak with a normal tone of voice withou
t intonation and excessive voice pauses.
•
Avoid insufficient articulation.
•
Close the doors, windows and sliding roof, in order 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 avoid additional nois
e in the vehicle, e.g. simultaneously
talking occupants.•
Do not speak, if the syst
em makes an announcement.
•
The microphone for voice control is direct
ed to the driver and front passenger.
Therefore the driver and the front passenger can operate the equipment.
Voice commandsThe digits
zero to nine
are permitted. The system dete
cts no continuous digit combi-
nations such as twenty-three, but only indi
vidually spoken digits (two, three). After
each order of digits (separation through br
ief voice pause) the detected digits are
repeated. The telephone number can be entered as an
interconnected spoken row of digits
(complete number), in the form of order of
digits (separation through a brief voice
pause) or through individually
spoken digits. After each order of digits (separation
through brief voice pause) the
detected digits are repeated.
If you enter more than 20 di
gits, the system announces: “
The number is too long
”.
Additionally for international calls a
Plus (+)
has to be entered in front of the 20 digits.
The voice control is possible in the following languages:
Czech, English, German, French, Italian and Spanish.Voice commands
