Telephone control (Phone)
use of the voice control system must be observed for the system to operate
correctly.
DIALOGUE is the time during which the voice control system issues messag-
es and is able to receive spoken orders (commands or oral instructions). If a
call is received, then the dialogue is immediately interrupted.
TIMEOUT is the time that the radio and navigation system waits to receive
an instruction.
Assistance for any of the options available can be requested from any part
of the menu by using the voice instruction HELP. If the TIMEOUT expires and
the user has not given any voice instructions, the system will offer the avail-
able options.
You can CANCEL in any part of the menu.
Basic functions when using voice control
Volume adjustment
The volume can be adjusted at any moment using the navigation system
control button or the buttons on the steering wheel multifunction control.
Connecting voice control (Dialogue)
Briefly press the “PTT” button ⇒ Fig. 80 or ⇒ Fig. 83 on the steering wheel
multifunction control to start the dialogue at any moment.
An ascending acoustic signal indicates that the voice control system has
been activated.
Voice instructions (Commands)
Start speaking after the sound signal (beep) which is heard after a DIA-
LOGUE.
If the system does not recognise a spoken instruction, an initial assistance
cue is given, with the available options, and the system waits for a new spo- ken instruction. After the second failed attempt, the system repeats the sec-
ond part of the assistance cue. If the system still does not recognise the in-
struction on the third attempt, it replies “Process interrupted
” and ends the
dialogue.
Interrupting an on-going message
Briefly press the “PTT” button on the multifunction control or the navigation
system during a dialogue to end the current message, and to give another
command.
Disconnecting voice control (Dialogue)
Briefly press the “PTT” button on the multifunction control or on the naviga-
tion system to end the dialogue at any moment. Now it is possible to leave
the voice recognition system by giving the spoken instruction “CANCEL”.
Press and hold the “PTT” button to leave the voice recognition system di-
rectly. The voice control system closes with a decreasing acoustic signal.
Correct use of the voice control system
Note the following to ensure that you are properly understood:
● Avoid speaking when the system is saying a cue. Wait for the tone at the
end of the DIALOGUE.
● Try to speak clearly.
● Speak in a normal tone and without pauses or exaggerated pronuncia-
tion.
● The hands-free microphone is directed towards the driver, therefore, on-
ly the driver should try to operate the system.
● Avoid other noises in the vehicle during a dialogue (e.g. other passen-
gers speaking in the vehicle).
● Keep the doors, windows and sun roof closed if possible to avoid back-
ground noises that might affect the system.

which you can set the automatic audio volume reduction applied when the
parking distance warning system (PDC) is active. When reverse gear is en-
gaged, the volume of the radio and navigation system is lowered to make
manoeuvring easier and so that acoustic warnings are audible. If the maximum start-up volume is set very low, the navigation system an-
nouncements will also be lowered to this level. This may mean that the vol-
ume of the navigation system requires turning up each time the unit is
switched on.
Functional description of speed-dependent volume adjustment (GALA)
The speed dependent volume adjustment automatically increases the vol-
ume as the vehicle speed increases.
The degree to which the volume increases with speed is adjusted on a scale
between 1 and 7.
If a low value is set, the volume increases only slightly as the speed of the
vehicle increases. At a high setting the volume increases further. At
0
speed-dependent volume control is switched off (display: Off).
