WLAN (also Wi-Fi) is a wireless network for connecting to the Internet.
Using a mobile phone connected with the universal telephone preparation
GSM III via the rSAP profile, it is possible to establish a Wi-Fi network in the ve-
hicle and to enable passengers with compatible devices to connect to this net-
work.

If the Wi-Fi network is switched on, the display will show the following mes-
sage, for example: WLAN SK_WLAN 1234 switched on.
The display then shows a password for the Wi-Fi network connection. The
password can subsequently be found in the Phone - Wi-Fi - Password - Show
menu.
If no data connection via WLAN is available, the display will show the message
Data connection not available. . This can be caused by a weak GSM signal, for
example. Try to establish the connection again at a location with stronger sig-
nal reception.

123Communication and multimedia
The voice command system (hereinafter referred to only as a system) allows
some functions of the GSM II or III GSM universal phone installation kit to be
operated via voice commands.
The period of time during which the system is ready to receive voice com-
mands and to carry them out is called a dialogue. The system gives audible
feedback and guides you if necessary through the relevant functions.
Optimum understanding of the voice commands depends on several factors. › Speak with a normal tone of voice without intonation and excessive pauses.
› Avoid a bad pronunciation.
› Close the doors, windows and sliding roof, to reduce or stop disturbing exte-
rior noise.
› You are recommended to speak louder at higher speeds, so that the sound of
your voice is not drowned out by the increased ambient noise.
› During the dialogue, limit additional noise in the vehicle, e.g. passengers talk-
ing at the same time.
› Do not speak, if the system makes an announcement.
The microphone for voice control is inserted in the moulded headliner and di-
rected to the driver and front passenger. Therefore the driver and the front
passenger can operate the equipment.
Entering a phone number
The telephone number can be entered as a continuous series of individually spoken digits (the whole number at once) or in the form of digital blocks (sepa-
rated by short pauses). After each order of digits (separation through brief
voice pause) all of the digits detected up to now are repeated by the system.
The digits 0 - 9, symbols +,
, #
are permitted. The system detects no continu-
ous digit combinations such as twenty-three, but only individually spoken dig-
its (two, three).
Activating voice control - GSM II

commands.CALL XYZThis command calls up the contact from the phone
book.PHONE BOOKAfter this command, for example, the phone book
can be repeated back to you, a voice entry for the
contact can be updated or deleted, etc.CALL HISTORYLists of dialled numbers, missed calls, etc.DIAL NUMBERAfter this command, a telephone number can be
entered to establish a connection with the reques-
ted party.REDIALAfter this command the system calls the last dial-
led number. 124Using the system

paired device.FURTHER OPTIONSAfter this command the system offers additional
context-dependent commands.SETTINGSSelection for setting Bluetooth ®
, dialogue etc.CANCELThe dialogue is ended.
If a voice command is not detected, the system answers with “ Pardon?”, and a
new entry can be made. After the 2nd error the system repeats the aid. After
the 3rd attempt the answer “ Cancelled” is given and the dialogue is ended.
Store voice recording of a contact
If automatic name recognition does not work reliably for some contacts, you
can choose to save your own voice tag for the contact in the Phone book -
Voice tag - Record menu item.
Your own voice tag can also be saved using the voice command in the FUR-
THER OPTIONS menu.

Music playback via Bluetooth ®
This chapter applies only to vehicles with the GSM II or GSM III universal phone
installation kit.
The universal telephone preinstallation makes it possible to play back music
via Bluetooth ®
from devices such as MP3 players, mobile phones or notebooks.
To ensure that music can be played via Bluetooth ®
, you must first pair the de-
vice with the hands-free system in the Phone - Bluetooth - Media player
menu.
The music playback process is performed on the connected device.

a vehicle must be observed.■
Do not fit the equipment or mounts to be connected to airbag covers or
within the immediate deployment range of the airbags.
■
Never leave a connected device in the deployment area of an airbag, on a
seat, on the dash panel or any another area, from which it can be thrown
during a sudden braking manoeuvre, an accident or a collision - risk of in-
jury.
Note

slowly and cautiously – danger of contaminating the body.
Note
The fuel capacity for vehicles with front wheel drive is about 55 litres, and for
vehicles with four-wheel drive about 60 litres, with about 9 liters as reserve.
Lead-free petrol
Read and observe
on page 177 first.
The vehicle can only be operated with unleaded petrol in compliance with the
EN 228 1)
standard.
All petrol engines can be operated using petrol that contains at most 10% bio-
ethanol (E10).
Required fuel - unleaded petrol 95/91 or 92 or 93 RON
Use unleaded fuel with the octane rating 95 RON. Unleaded petrol with the
octane ratings 91, 92 or 93 RON can also be used, but may result in a slight
loss in performance and slightly increased fuel consumption »
.
Prescribed fuel - unleaded petrol min. 95 RON
Use unleaded fuel with the octane rating 95 RON or higher.
If unleaded gasoline is not available with the octane number 95 RON, in an
emergency petrol with the octane rating of 91, 92 and 93 RON can be used to
fill the tank, but this leads to a slight loss of performance and a slightly in-
creased fuel consumption »
.
Prescribed fuel - unleaded fuel 98/95 RON
Use unleaded fuel with the octane rating 98 RON or higher. Unleaded petrol
95 RON can also be used but this results in a slight loss in performance and
slightly increased fuel consumption.
In case of an emergency, you can refuel with petrol with the octane ratings 91,
92 or 93 RON, if unleaded fuel with octane rating 98 RON or 95 RON is not
available »
.
1)
In Germany also DIN 51626-1 or E10 for unleaded petrol with octane number 91 or 95 or DIN 51626-2 or E5
for unleaded petrol with octane number 95 and 98.
