Overview
The address book gives you the option of
storing information about people in the form
of entries.
Using voice control, you can dial a phone
number stored in the address book or start
route guidance for a stored address.
Apart from the speaker-dependent voice
names stored in the address book, voice
control can recognize all the entries in the
name fields of the address book. Recognition
of the entries in the address book depends on
the text that was entered. To make a call you
must say the text of the entry.
Check the address book entries for the
following:
R The name entries, e.g. last name and first
name, are in the right fields.
R Do not use abbreviations or acronyms.
R Avoid unnecessary spaces in names.
R Do not use special characters.
You can improve voice recognition by saving
a speaker-dependent voice name for address
book entries.
Use a speaker-dependent voice name:
R for names which are difficult to pronounce
R to distinguish names which sound similar
R for names which are not pronounced as
they are written
Voice control can store up to 50 of these
address book entries by means of a speaker-
dependent voice name.
Operation
You can use voice control at any time to:
R save a name
R select a name
R delete a name
R list the address book

XUsing the “Help address book” command,

“Save Name”
Use the “Save name” command to save a
phone number with a voice name for a
specific speaker. Use this command for a
name which is complicated or which is
pronounced differently as it is spelled, for
example, because it is a foreign name. When
you have given the command “Save Name”,
voice control prompts you to enter a phone
number.
The digits 0 to 9 and the word “Plus” are
permitted.
“ Plus” replaces the international dialing code,
e.g. “00”.
Say the phone number in the form of a
continuous string of digits or as blocks of
digits, e.g. three to five digits.
Voice control repeats the digits it recognizes
after each block of digits (with a pause of
