Introduction to the subject
Applies to Infotainment Columbus, Amundsen, Bolero.
The navigation, telephone, radio and media menu can be operated by voice
commands.
The voice control system can be used either by the driver or by the front pas-
senger.
Function requirements for voice control Infotainment is switched on.
There will be no telephone call using a phone connected to Infotainment.
The parking aid is not active.
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.
▶ During voice control, limit additional noise in the vehicle, e.g. passengers
talking at the same time.
WARNINGThe emergency number should be dialled manually. Your voice commands
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
■ The messages are generated by Infotainment. Flawless clarity (e.g. road or
city name) cannot always be guaranteed.■
For some Infotainment languages, there is no voice control available. Info-
tainment indicates this fact through a text message that is displayed on the
screen after setting the Infotainment language.
