82Speech recognition
Confirm Less: If selected, the system
asks you less often to confirm your
voice inputs. Consequently, the
system might sometimes misinterpret your commands and not perform the
correct action.
Notice
When starting to use the speech recognition, it may be advantageous
to use the Confirm More setting. As
you get more experienced, i.e., you
get to know how to pronounce your
commands in a way the speech
recognition understands you
correctly, it may be advantageous to
use the Confirm Less setting.Prompt Length
The length and the detailedness of
the questions and statements the
speech recognition gives out can be
adjusted in the corresponding
submenu.Audio Feedback Speed
The speed with which the speech
recognition asks questions or makes
statements can be adjusted in the
corresponding submenu.If Medium is selected, the system's
speech rate corresponds to natural
speech.
Notice
When starting to use the speech
recognition, it may be advantageous
to use the Long setting. As you get
more experienced, it may be
advantageous to use the Short
setting.
Voice pass-thru application
The voice pass-thru application of the Infotainment system allows access tothe speech recognition commands on
your smartphone. See your
smartphone manufacturer's user
guide to find out whether your
smartphone supports this feature.

interrupt a voice prompt by briefly
pressing the w button on the steering
wheel.
A beep is heard immediately, the
speech recognition symbol changes
to red, and a command can be stated
without having to wait.
Cancelling a dialogue sequence
There are various possibilities to
cancel a dialogue sequence and to
deactivate the speech recognition:
■ Say " Cancel" or "Exit".
■ Press the n button on the left-
hand side of the steering wheel.
■ If the speech recognition session was started via the VOICE screen
button on the centre display, you
may alternatively:
◆ Press the ; button on the
instrument panel.
◆ Select the m or Exit screen
buttons in the help menu.

84Speech recognition
In the following situations, a dialogue
sequence is automatically cancelled:
■ If you do not say any command for a certain period of time (by default
you are prompted three times to
say a command).
■ If you say commands that are not recognised by the system (by
default you are prompted three
times to say a correct command).
Operation via speech commands
The speech recognition can
understand commands that are either
naturally stated in sentence form, or
direct commands stating the
application and the action.
For best results: ■ Listen for the voice prompt and wait
for the beep before saying a
command or replying.
■ Say " Help" or read the example
commands on the screen.■ The voice prompt can be interrupted by pressing the w button
again
■ Wait for the beep and then speak the command naturally, not too
fast, not too slow. Use short and direct commands.
Usually phone and audio commands
can be spoken in a single command. For example, "Call David Smith at
work", "Play" followed by the artist or
song name, or "Tune to" followed by
the radio frequency and the
waveband.
Navigation destinations, however,
are too complex for a single
command. First, state a command that explains the type of destination
needed, such as "Directions to an
Address", "Navigate to an
intersection", "Find a Place of
Interest", or "Directions to a contact".
The system responds with requesting
more details.
When searching for a "Place of
Interest," only major chains may be
selected by name. Chains are
businesses with at least 20 locations.For other POIs, say the name of a
category like "Restaurants,"
"Shopping centres," or "Hospitals".
Direct commands are easier
understood by the system, e.g. "Call
01234567". Examples of these direct
commands are displayed on most of
the screens while a speech
recognition session is active.
If you say "Phone" or "Phone
commands", the system understands
that a phone call is requested and
responds with respective questions
until enough details are gathered. If
the phone number has been saved
with a name and a place, the direct
command should include both, for
example "Call David Smith at work".Selecting list items
When a list is displayed, a voice
prompt asks to confirm or select an
item from that list. A list item may be
manually selected, or by speaking the
line number of the item.
