played in the device screen or in the display of the combined instrument
.

› Avoid bad pronunciation.
› Close the doors, windows and sliding roof, in order to avoid disturbing envi-
ronmental influences on the function of the voice commands.

› During voice control, limit additional noise in the vehicle, e.g. passengers
talking at the same time.
