Speech recognition77Speech recognitionGeneral information.....................77
Usage .......................................... 79General information
Embedded speech recognition The embedded speech recognition of the Infotainment system enables youto operate various functions of theInfotainment 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 voice 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 performing the
desired actions. 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
kind of action to be performed, like
"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.
Important informationLanguage support ■ Not all languages available for the display of the Infotainment system
are also available for the speech
recognition.
■ If the display language currently selected is not supported by the

78Speech recognition
speech recognition, speech
recognition is not available.
In such a case, you need to select
another language for the display, if
you want to control the Infotainment
system via voice input. For
changing the display language, see "Language" in chapter "System
settings" 3 40.Address input of 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 mayoptionally change the display
language to French, German, or
Italian.
For changing the display language, see "Language" in chapter "Systemsettings" 3 40.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.
■ Austria, Germany:
■ Belgium, France, Great Britain:
■ Italy, Netherlands, Portugal, Russia, Spain, Switzerland:

Setting up the speech recognition Several settings and adaptions for the embedded speech recognition of the
Infotainment system can be
performed.
Press ; and then select the
SETTINGS icon.
Select Voice item to enter the
respective submenu.Confidence Threshold
Depending on the option selected in
the corresponding submenu, the
speech recognition appears more or
less 'confident' in correctly
understanding your commands.
Confirm More : If selected, the system
asks you relatively often to confirm your commands. Consequently, the
system performs the correct action in most cases.

Speech recognition79
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 level of detail 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
