Speech recognition103Speech recognitionGeneral information...................103
Phone control ............................ 104General information
The speech recognition of the
Infotainment system enables you to operate the phone portal via voice
input. It recognises commands and
numeric sequences independently of
the current speaker. The commands
and numeric sequences can be
spoken without a voice pause
between the individual words.
You can save telephone numbers
assigning a name of your choice
(voice tag). Using these names, you
can later set up a telephone
connection.
In the event of incorrect operation or
commands, the speech recognition
gives you 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.
To ensure that conversations inside
the vehicle do not lead to
unintentional triggering of system
functions, the speech recognition
does not start until it has been
activated.Important notes on language
support
● Not all languages available for the display of the Infotainment
system are also available for the
speech recognition.
● If the currently selected language
for the display is not supported by the speech recognition, you must enter the voice commands in
English.
To be able to enter voice
commands in English, you must
first activate the phone main
menu by pressing PHONE on the
Infotainment system, and then
activate the speech recognition
of the phone portal by pressing
w on the steering wheel.
