Usage .......................................... 78General information
Embedded speech recognition
The embedded 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 voice 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 performing the
desired actions.
Notice
To ensure that conversations inside
the vehicle do not lead to
unintentional triggering of thesystem functions, the speech
recognition does not start until it has
been activated.
Important informationLanguage support ● Not all languages available for the display of the Infotainment
system are also available for the
speech recognition.
● If the display language currently selected is not supported by the
speech recognition, speech
recognition is not available.
In such a case, you need to select
another language for the display
if you want to control the
Infotainment system via voice
input. To change the display
language 3 66.
Voice pass-thru application
The voice pass-thru application of the
Infotainment system allows access to the speech recognition commands on
your smartphone.

Bluetooth connection
Bluetooth is a radio standard for the
wireless connection of e.g. mobile
phones, smartphones or other
devices.
Pairing a device
During the pairing process, PIN code
exchange between the Bluetooth
device and the Infotainment system
and connection of the Bluetooth
devices to the Infotainment system
are carried out.
Important information
● Two paired Bluetooth devices can be connected to the
Infotainment system at the same
time. One device in hands-free mode, the other in audio
streaming mode, see description
on Bluetooth profile settings
below.
However, two devices cannot be
used in hands-free mode at the
same time.
● Pairing 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 USB port for charging.Pairing a new device
1. Activate the Bluetooth function of the Bluetooth device. For further
information, see the operating
instructions for the Bluetooth
device.
2. Press a and then touch Bluetooth

Confirm the messages on the
Infotainment system and the Bluetooth device.
● If SSP (secure simple pairing) is not supported:
On the Infotainment system: a message is displayed
asking you to enter a PIN
code on your Bluetooth
device.

enter the PIN code and confirm your input.
The Infotainment system and
the device are paired.
5. The phone book is downloaded automatically to the Infotainment
system. Depending on the phone,
the Infotainment system must be
allowed access to the phone
book. If required, confirm the
messages displayed on the
Bluetooth device.
If this function is not supported by the Bluetooth device, a
corresponding message is
displayed.

Notice
In the hands-free mode, mobile
phone operation is still possible, e.g.
taking a call or adjusting the volume.
After setup of a connection between
the mobile phone and the
Infotainment system, mobile phone
data is transmitted to the Infotainment
system. This can take some time
depending on the mobile phone and
the amount of data to be transferred.
During this period, operation of the
