which syllables are omitted.
● Telephone numbers must be given digit by
digit or in blocks of numbers in ones, tens or
hundreds.
● Speak at a normal volume, without exag-
gerated intonation or long pauses.
● Avoid noise from the exterior and nearby
(for example, conversations inside the vehi-
cle). Close all doors, windows and the sliding
roof.
● Do not aim the air from the diffusers at the
roof of the passenger compartment.
● If you are driving very fast, speak a little
louder.
You can access the instructions by saying:
“Instructions, tutorial, introduction”. You can

Audio and Media Mode
Digital radio mode (DAB, DAB+ and
audio DMB) Fig. 11
Display of preset buttons in DAB
mode. Fig. 12
Display of station information in DAB
mode. The DAB radio receiver supports the DAB,
DAB+ and DMB-Audio broadcasting stand-
ards. In Europe, digital radio is transmitted via
Band III frequencies (174 MHz to 240 MHz)
and the L Band (1452 MHz to 1492 MHz).
The frequencies of the two bands are referred
to as “
channels
” and each has a channel
n
ame (e.g. 12 A).
Several DAB stations are combined into one
channel with the additional services availa-
ble in a “block”.
St

arting DAB radio mode
● From the
RADIO main menu press the BAND function button and select
DAB .
The DAB radio station that was last selected
will be played if it can still be received at the
current location.
The selected DAB station is displayed in the
upper bar of the screen; the group of selec-
ted stations is displayed below ››› Fig. 11 .
Ad dition

al DAB stations (Secondary Service
Components)
Some DAB stations temporarily or perma-
nently offer additional stations , (for example,
for broadcasting sports events).
Press the name of the main station in the
DAB menu to select an additional station. Or,
select the additional station from the station
list. The DAB main menu shows the name of the
additional selected station on the right
alongside the abbreviated name of the main
DAB station.
The additional stations cannot be stored.
Automatic station tracking: change from DAB

DAB is currently
not available in all areas . In
areas without DAB,  is displayed in DAB ra-
dio mode.
Automatic station tracking can be activated
in DAB setup to change to the FM frequency
band ››› page 22.
If r

eception of the currently selected DAB sta-
tion is lost (e.g. no DAB reception available),
the Infotainment system attempts to find the
station on the FM frequency band and tune to
it. Automatic station tracking between fre-
quency bands only works if the DAB station
and the FM station transmit the same station
identifier or the DAB signal indicates a corre-
sponding station on the FM frequency band.
Once the corresponding FM station has been
found, (FM) is displayed after the station name. When reception for the corresponding
DAB station returns, the unit will switch back
to DAB mode after a short time. The (FM)
dis-
play is hidden.
If the reception of the selected DAB station is
too weak and the station can no longer be
