Usage .......................................... 57General information
Embedded speech recognition The speech recognition of the
Infotainment system enables you to operate various functions of the
Infotainment system via voice input. It recognises commands and numeric
sequences independently of the
relevant speaker. The commands
and numeric sequences can be
spoken without a pause between the
individual words.
In the event of incorrect operation or commands, the speech recognition
gives visual and/or acoustic feedback
and requests you to re-enter the
desired command. Apart from this,
the speech recognition
acknowledges important commands
and will enquire if necessary.
In general, there are different ways to
speak commands for completing the
tasks. Most of them, except
destination entry and voice keypad,
can be completed in a single
command.If the action takes more than one
command to be performed, proceed
as follows:
In the first command, you indicate the
type of action to be performed, e.g.
"Navigation destination entry". The
system replies with prompts that lead you through a dialogue for entering
the necessary information. For
example, if a destination for route
guidance is needed, say "Navigation"
or "Destination entry".
Notice
To ensure that conversations inside
the vehicle do not lead to
unintentional triggering of the
system functions, the speech
recognition does not start until it has been activated.
Language support ■ Not all languages available for the display of the Infotainment system
are also available for the speech
recognition.
■ If the currently selected display language is not supported by the
speech recognition, speech
recognition is not available.

Speech recognition57
In such a case you need to select
another language for the display if
you want to control the Infotainment system via voice input. Changing
the display language, see
"Language" in chapter "System
settings" 3 21.
Address input for destinations in foreign countries
In case you want to enter the address of a destination located in a foreign
country via voice input, you need to
change the language of the
Infotainment display to the language
of the foreign country.
E.g. if the display is currently set to English and you want to enter the
name of a city located in France, you
need to change the display language
to French.
Exceptions: If you want to enter
addresses in Belgium, you may
optionally change the display
language to French or Dutch. For
addresses in Switzerland you may
optionally change the display
language to French, German, or
Italian.For changing the display language, see "Language" in chapter "Systemsettings" 3 21.
Input order for destination addresses
The order in which the parts of an
address need to be entered using the speech recognition system is
dependent on the country where the
destination is located.
An example for the respective input
order is given out by the system.
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.Usage
Embedded speech recognition Activating speech recognition Notice
Speech recognition is not available
during an active phone call.
Press the w button on the right side of
the steering wheel.
The audio system mutes, the w
symbol on the display is highlighted, and a voice output message prompts

directly initiate a system function
(e.g. playing a radio station), or to

The speech recognition of the
Infotainment system enables you to
operate the phone portal via voice input. It recognises commands and
numeric sequences independently of
the relevant speaker. The commands and numeric sequences can be
spoken without a voice pause
between the individual words.
You can save telephone numbers
assigning a name of your choice
(voice tag). Using these names, you
can later set up a telephone
connection.
In the event of incorrect operation or commands the speech recognition
gives you visual and/or acoustic
feedback and requests you to re-
enter the desired command. Apart
from this, the speech recognition
acknowledges important commands
and will enquire if necessary.
To ensure that conversations inside
the vehicle do not lead to
unintentional triggering of systemfunctions, the speech recognition
does not start until it has been
activated.
Important notes on language
support ■ Not all languages available for the display of the Infotainment system
are also available for the speech

commands in English, you first
need to activate the phone main
menu by pressing the PHONE
button on the Infotainment system,
and then activate the speech
recognition of the phone portal by
