Requirements for optimum voice command recognition
▶ Speak at your normal volume without intonation and long pauses.
▶ Avoid bad pronunciation.
▶ Close the doors and windows in order to avoid disturbing environmental in-
fluences 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.

may not be recognised in such situations. The telephone connection may
not be established or the connection may take too much time to complete.
CAUTION

tainment indicates this fact through a text message that is displayed on the
