system display. The first digit is suppressed if you select a track with a three-
digit number, i.e. track 125 and track 25 are both displayed as track “25”. For

86Telephone speech control systemIntroduction
You can use speech commands to operate various functions
of the telephone.Functions
When used in combination with the hands-free system, you can make calls
without touching your mobile phone. The speech control system recognises
commands and digits spoken by different people.
The speech control system allows you to do the following:•Create an acoustic phone book for the speech control system ⇒page 86•Enter and dial a telephone number ⇒page 91
Traffic reports are not announced during a running dialogue. The dialogue
will be ended immediately when an incoming phone call is received. To
answer the call, press the left thumbwheel on the multi-function steering
wheel* or the talk button on the mobile phone adapter.
Unclear speech commands
The system acknowledges your commands with an acoustic signal. If the
system does not recognise a speech command, it will answer with Pardon?
and request you to repeat the command. After a third failed attempt the
system will answer with Cancel and the dialogue will be ended.
How to help the system understand you•Speak clearly in a normal volume. Speak louder if you are driving fast.•Speak in a normal tone without long pauses.•Avoid speaking when the system is saying a cue.•Close doors, windows and sun roof* to reduce background noise. Make
sure that passengers are not talking when you say a command.
•Keep the air outlets of the air distribution system pointed away from the
microphone, which is fitted in the vicinity of the front interior lights.•The system should only be operated by the driver, since the hands-free
microphone is directed towards the driver.WARNING
•Please direct your full attention to the road at all times! As the driver,
you bear the responsibility for road safety. Therefore, you should only use
the functions in a manner that allows you to maintain control of the vehicle
in all situations.•The speech control system must not be used in cases of emergency,
since the voice changes in stressful situations. This could result in a failed
or delayed telephone connection. Always dial emergency numbers
manually.
Speech control system phone book
Name tags are stored in the phone book for the speech
control system.General notes
The phone book for the speech control system has 50 memory positions. You
can use it independently of the mobile phone. The name tags are stored in
the phone book for the speech control system.
Functions
The phone book for the speech control system gives you various options:•Dialling phone numbers stored previously ⇒page 93•Recording a name in the speech control phone book for a phone book
entry in the on-board phone system ⇒ page 92

Navigation (NAV)*
98Route without stopover (single destination mode)
In the single destination mode you can drive directly to a destination
⇒ page 104.
If you enter a direct destination and start route guidance, you are given the
option of up to three different routes ⇒page 113.
Route with stopovers (route plan)
In this mode, you can choose to three stopovers and one final destination
( ⇒ page 120).
For example, when travelling you can save time by finding the nearest filling
station in unfamiliar towns. You can also make a stopover to eat in a restau-
rant or visit a tourist attraction ⇒page 106.
Note
You do not receive any information about the meaning of road signs!How does the navigation system work?
The navigation system works with the help of satellites (GPS).The current vehicle position is determined with the aid of distance sensors,
manoeuvre sensors and satellite signals. GPS satellites send the necessary
signals required by the system (GPS stands for “Global Positioning System”).
The information is transmitted to the navigation system and compared with
the information stored in the navigation DVD map database. This way, the
route guidance can be accurately calculated.
Before the system can function, a navigation DVD must be inserted in the
navigation drive. The navigation drive is located behind the system display
⇒page 22, fig. 24 . When the navigation DVD is inserted, the system starts automatically and
navigation destinations can be entered
⇒page 104.
Six different languages (German, Spanish, French, English, Italian and Portu-
guese) are available on the navigation DVD for the audible navigation
prompts. You can change the language for the voice guidance cues via the
option Menu language ⇒ page 154 in the Setup menu.
Note
•Snow or other obstructions on the GPS aerial or interference caused by
trees or large buildings could affect the reception of the satellite signals and
make positioning difficult. GPS reception and vehicle positioning can also be
adversely affected by deactivation or a malfunction of several satellites.•GPS positioning is uni-directional, i.e. the navigation system receives
data for positioning the vehicle, but does not transmit any data.Navigation DVDs
The data relating to the starting point and the destination can
be saved separately in the two navigation DVDs.If this is the case, proceed as follows:
– First put the DVD covering the country of your destination into the navigation drive ⇒page 23.
– Enter your destination ⇒page 104.
– Then put in the DVD for the country where your starting point is located ⇒page 23.
–Start the route guidance ⇒page 112. The navigation system will
calculate the route.
