To ensure that voice commands are always recognised by the system, please
follow these recommendations:
–

use natural language in a normal tone
without breaking up words or raising your
voice.
–


always wait for the "beep" (audible signal)
before speaking.
–


for best results, closing the windows and
sunroof is recommended, to avoid extraneous
interference (depending on version).
–


before issuing a voice command, ask any
other passengers to refrain from speaking.
First steps
Example of a "voice command" for
navigation:
"Navigate to address 11 regent street,
London"
Example of a "voice command" for the radio and
media:
"Play artist Madonna"
Example of a "voice command" for the

The voice commands, with a choice of 17 languages (Arabic, Brazilian, Czech,
Danish, Dutch, English, Farsi, French,
German, Italian, Norwegian, Polish,
Portuguese, Russian, Spanish, Swedish,
Turkish), are made using the language
previously chosen and set in the system.
For some voice commands, there are
alternative synonyms.
Example: Guide to / Navigate to / Go to / ...
The voice commands in Arabic for: "Navigate
to address" and "Display POI in the city", are
not available.
Information - Using the
system
When voice commands are activated, by
briefly pressing the button, help is
displayed on the touch screen, offering various
menus and enabling voice-based interaction with
the system.


A number of commands are available when a
menu is selected.


Press the Push To Talk button and tell me
what you'd like after the tone. Remember
you can interrupt me at any time by pressing this
button. If you press it again while I'm waiting for
you to speak, it'll end the conversation. If you
need to start over, say "cancel". If you want to
undo something, say "undo". And to get
information and tips at any time, just say "help".
If you ask to me do something and there's some
information missing that I need, I'll give you
some examples or take you through it step by
step. There's more information available in
"novice" mode. You can set the dialogue mode to
"expert" when you feel comfortable.

example, "navigate to address 11 Regent Street,
London", "navigate to contact, John Miller",
or "navigate to intersection of Regent Street,
London". You can specify if it's a preferred
address, or a Point of Interest. For example, say
"navigate to preferred address, Tennis club", or
"navigate to POI Heathrow Airport in London".
Or, you can just say, "navigate home". To see
Points of Interest on a map, you can say things like "show POI hotels in Banbury". For more
information say "help with points of interest" or
"help with route guidance".
To choose a destination, say something like
"navigate to line three" or "select line two". If you
can't find the destination but the street's right,
say for example "select the street in line three".
To move around a displayed list, you can say
"next page" or "previous page". You can undo
your last action and start over by saying "undo",
or say "cancel" to cancel the current action.

Help messages
To see points of interest on a map, you can

nearby parking", "show hotel at the destination"
or "show petrol station along the route". If you
prefer to navigate directly to a point of interest,
you can say "navigate to nearby petrol station".
If you feel you are not being well understood,
try to say the word "POI" in front of the point
of interest. For example say "navigate to POI
restaurant at the destination".
To choose a POI, say something like "select
line 2". If you've searched for a Point of Interest
and don't see the one you're after, you can filter
further by saying something like "select POI in
line 2", or "select the city in line 3". You can also
scroll through the list by saying "next page" or
"previous page".
Depending on the country, give
destination (address) instructions in the
