Voice activation system
22
Using alternative commands
There are often a number of commands to run a
function, e.g.:
Calling up functions immediately via
short commands
Short commands enable you to perform certain
functions immediately, irrespective of which
menu item is selected, page 219.
Open the main menu
Example: selecting the track of a CD
1. Switch on Entertainment sound output if
necessary.
2. Press the button on the steering wheel.
Setting the voice dialog
You can set whether the voice activation system
uses the standard dialog or the short version.
With the short version of the spoken dialog, the
requests and responses of the voice activation
system are shortened.
1. "Settings"
2. "Language/Units"
3. "Speech mode:"
4. Select a setting:
> "Default"
> "Short"
Notes
For voice commands, bear in mind the follow-
ing:
> Do not use the voice activation system to ini-
tiate an emergency call. In stressful situa-
tions, the voice and vocal pitch can change.
This can unnecessarily delay the establish-
ment of a telephone connection.
> Pronounce the commands and digits
smoothly and at normal volume, avoiding
excessive emphases and pauses. The same
applies to spelling when entering a destina-
tion for navigation.
> Always speak the commands in the lan-
guage of the voice activation system.
> When selecting a radio station, use the stan-
dard pronunciation of the station name.
> Keep the doors, windows and glass roof
*
closed to prevent interference from outside
noise.
> Avoid ambient noise in the vehicle while
speaking.
