Voice controlIntroductionThe period, in which the telephone system is ready to receive voice commands and
carry out the voice commands, is called DIALOGUE. The system gives audible feedback
and guides you if necessary th
rough the relevant functions.
Switch on voice control (dialogue)
You can start the dialogue at any time by briefly pressing the PTT button
 on the
adapter* page 128, fig. 123 or on the multifunction steering wheel* page 128.
If the system does not recognise your command, it repeats the first part of the aid and
thus a new entry is possible. After the 2nd error the system repeats the second part of
the aid. After the 3rd error the answer “ Cancel” is given and the dialogue is ended.
Switching off voice control (dialogue)
You can end the dialogue at any time by briefly pressing the PTT button
 on the
adapter* page 128, fig. 123 or on the multifunction steering wheel* page 128. If
the system expects a voice command, you can end the dialogue with the command
CANCEL .
Only the message just repeated can be ended by pressing the PTT button  during the
message and thus it is possible to pronounce the expected command sooner.
When receiving an incoming call, the dialog ue is immediately interrupted and you can
accept the call by pressing the button
 on the multifunction steering wheel* or by
pressing the button for receiving a call directly on your telephone.
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.

Phone PhonebookA phone phonebook is part of the mobile ph one preinstallation with voice control. In
the phone phonebook there are 2000 free me mory locations available. This phone
phonebook can be used in line with the mobile telephone.
After the first connection of the telephone, the system begins to load the phone book
from the phone and the SIM card into the memory of the control unit.
If the telephone book of the mobile phon e contains more than 2 000 entries, the
system announces after downloading Phone book not fully loaded.
Each time the telephone has establishe d a new connection with the hands-free
system, an update of the relevant phone b ook is performed. The updating can take a
few minutes. During this time the phone book, which was stored after the last update
was completed, is available. Newly stored telephone numbers are only shown after the
updating has ended.
If a telephone event (e.g. incoming or outg oing call, dialogue of the voice control)
occurs during the updating procedure, the updating is interrupted. After the telephone
event has ended, the updating starts anew.
