Guidance ..................................... 50General information
The navigation application will reliably guide you to your destination without
the need to read maps.
The current traffic situation is taken
into account in the route calculation.
For this reason, the Infotainment
system receives traffic
announcements in the current
reception area via RDS-TMC.
The navigation application cannot,
however, take into account traffic
incidents, traffic regulations changed at short notice and hazards or
problems that arise suddenly (e.g.
road works).Caution
The usage of the navigation
system does not release the driver
from the responsibility for a
correct, vigilant attitude in road
traffic. The relevant traffic
regulations must always be
followed. If a navigation instruction contradicts traffic regulations, the
traffic regulations always apply.
Functioning of the navigation
application
The position and movement of the
vehicle are detected by the navigation
application using sensors. The
travelled distance is determined by
the vehicle's speedometer signal and turning movements on bends by a
gyro sensor. The position is
determined by the GPS satellites
(Global Positioning System).
By comparing the sensor signals with the digital maps, it is possible to
determine the position with an
accuracy of approx. 10 metres.
The system will also work with poor
GPS reception, however, the
accuracy of the determination of the
position will be reduced.
After the entry of the destination
address or point of interest (nearest
petrol station, hotel, etc.) the route is
calculated from the current location to
the destination selected.

Speech commands overview .......59General information
Embedded speech recognition The speech recognition of the
Infotainment system enables you to operate various functions of the
Infotainment 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 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 completing the
tasks. 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
type of action to be performed, e.g.
"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.
Language support ■ Not all languages available for the display of the Infotainment system
are also available for the speech
recognition.
■ If the currently selected display language is not supported by the
speech recognition, speech
recognition is not available.
56Speech recognition
In such a case you must select
another language for the display if you want to control the Infotainment
system via voice input. Changing
the display language, see
"Language" in chapter "System
settings" 3 21.
Address input for destinations in
foreign countries
In case you want to enter the address
of a destination located in a foreign
country via voice input, you must
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
must 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 may
optionally change the display
language to French, German, or
Italian.For changing the display language,
see "Language" in chapter "System
settings" 3 21.
Input order for destination addresses The order in which the parts of an
address must be entered using the
speech recognition system is
dependent on the country where the
destination is located.
An example for the respective input
order is given out by the system.
Voice pass-thru application
The voice pass-thru application of the Infotainment system allows access to
the speech recognition commands on your smartphone. See the operating
instructions for your smartphone to
find out whether your smartphone
supports this feature.Usage
Embedded speech recognitionActivating speech recognition Notice
Speech recognition is not available
during an active phone call.
Press the w button on the right side of
the steering wheel.
The audio system mutes, the w
symbol on the display is highlighted, and a voice output message prompts you to say a command.
As soon as the speech recognition is
ready for voice input, a beep is heard.
You can now say a voice command to directly initiate a system function
(e.g. playing a radio station), or to
start a dialogue sequence with
several dialogue steps (e.g. entering
a destination address), see

The Phone portal provides you with
the possibility of having mobile phone conversations via a vehicle
microphone and the vehicle
loudspeakers as well as operating the
most important mobile phone
functions via the Infotainment system in the vehicle. To be able to use the
Phone portal, the mobile phone must
be connected with it via Bluetooth.
The Phone portal can be operated
optionally via the speech recognition
system.
Not all Phone portal functions are
supported by every mobile phone.
The possible phone functions depend on the relevant mobile phone andnetwork provider. You will find further
information on this in the operating
instructions for your mobile phone or you can enquire about them with your network provider.Important information for
operation and traffic safety9 Warning
Mobile phones have effects on
your environment. For this reason safety regulations and directions
have been prepared. You should
be familiar with the related
directions before you use the
telephone function.
9 Warning
Use of the hands-free facility while
driving can be dangerous because
your concentration is reduced
when telephoning. Park your
vehicle before you use the hands- free facility. Follow the stipulations
of the country in which you find
yourself at present.
Do not forget to follow the special
regulations that apply in specific areas and always switch off the
mobile phone if the use of mobile
Phone65phones is prohibited, if
interference is caused by the
mobile phone or if dangerous
situations can occur.
Bluetooth
The Phone portal is certified by the
Bluetooth Special Interest Group
(SIG).
You will find further information about the specification on the Internet at
http://www.bluetooth.com
Bluetooth connection
Bluetooth is a radio standard for the
wireless connection of e.g. mobile
phones, iPod/iPhone models, or other devices.
To be able to set up a Bluetooth
connection to the Infotainment
system, the Bluetooth function of the
Bluetooth device must be activated.
For further information, please
consult the user guide of the
Bluetooth device.
Via the Bluetooth menu, pairing (PIN
code exchange between Bluetooth device and Infotainment system) and
connecting of the Bluetooth devices
to the Infotainment system are carried
out.
Important information ■ Up to five devices can be paired to the system.
■ Only one paired device can be connected to the Infotainment
system at a time.
■ Pairing normally only needs to be carried out once, unless the device
is deleted from the list of paired
devices. If the device has been connected previously, the
Infotainment system establishes
the connection automatically.
■ Bluetooth operation considerably drains the device's battery.
Therefore, connect the device to
the power outlet for charging.Bluetooth menu
