Function requirements for voice control. The unit is switched on.
No phone call is in progress.

Requirements for optimum voice command recognition.
› The voice commands are only then to be spoken when the symbol is dis-
played in the device screen or in the display of the combined instrument
.
› Speak with a normal tone of voice without intonation and excessive pauses.
› 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.
› 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 voice control, limit additional noise in the vehicle, e.g. passengers
talking at the same time.
CAUTION
■ For some languages, there is no voice control available. This device indicates
this fact through a text message that is displayed after setting the device lan-
guage screen .
Note
During voice control, no navigation announcements and traffic announce-
ments are played.

GPS satellite signal
The unit uses the GPS (Global Positioning System) satellite signal for route
guidance.
Outside the range of the GPS satellite signal (e.g. in dense vegetation, in tun-
nels, parking garages, etc.), the unit navigates only with restrictions using
some on-vehicle sensors (such as speed sensor or steering angle sensor).
The unit offers the possibility to show in the split screen display the following
Position » Fig. 34 on page 48 information about the current geographical po-
sition of the vehicle and the satellite signal.
Geographical longitude
Geographical latitude
Elevation
Number of received/available satellites
To view the information on the longitude and latitude of the current vehicle
position display requires the reception of GPS signals from at least three satel-
lites.
To view the elevation information of the current vehicle position display re-
quires the reception of GPS signals from at least five satellites.
Navigation data
Navigation data source
The navigation data is stored on an Original SD Card .
In order to ensure the function of the navigation, the Original SD card, with the
navigation data, must be inserted in the respective slot » page 25.
If the original SD card should be damaged or lost, a new original SD card can be
purchased from the ŠKODA Original Accessories.
With a Non-original SD Card, the navigation does not work .
