General information

The Infotainment system provides you with state-of-the-art in-car infotainment.
Using the FM, AM or DAB radio functions, you can register a great number of stations on various favourites pages.
You can even register music tracks, telephone numbers, destination addresses or tone settings on the favourites pages.
You can connect external data storage devices to the Infotainment system as further audio sources; either via a cable or via Bluetooth®.
The navigation system with dynamic route planning will reliably guide you to your destination, and, if desired, automatically avoid traffic jams or other traffic problems.
In addition, the Infotainment system is equipped with a Phone portal that allows comfortable and safe use of your mobile phone in the vehicle.
Using the phone projection function, you can operate specific applications on your smartphone via the Infotainment system.
Via the shop application, you may download additional apps to the Infotainment system.
Optionally, the Infotainment system can be operated using controls on the steering wheel or via the speech recognition system.
The well-thought-out design of the control elements, the touch screen and the clear displays enable you to control the system easily and intuitively.
Notice This manual describes all options and features available for the various Infotainment systems. Certain descriptions, including those for display and menu functions, may not apply to your vehicle due to model variant, country specifications, special equipment or accessories.

Important information on operation and traffic safety
9 Warning
Drive safely at all times. Only operate the Infotainment system if the traffic conditions allow a safe usage.
In the interest of safety, it might be appropriate to stop the vehicle before operating the Infotainment system (e.g. for entries of addresses).
9 Warning
The usage of the navigation system does not release the driver from the responsibility for a correct, vigilant attitude in road traffic. Always follow the applicable traffic rules.
9 Warning
In some areas one-way streets and other roads and entrances (e.g. pedestrian zones) that you are not allowed to turn into are not marked on the map. In such areas the Infotainment system may issue a warning that must be accepted. Here you must pay particular attention to one-way streets, roads and entrances that you are not allowed to drive into.
Radio reception
Radio reception may be disrupted by static, noise, distortion or loss of reception due to:
● changes in distance from the transmitter
● multi-path reception due to reflection
● shadowing

Theft-deterrent feature

The Infotainment system is equipped with an electronic security system for the purpose of theft deterrence.
The Infotainment system therefore functions only in your vehicle and is worthless to a thief.

Digital audio broadcasting

DAB broadcasts radio stations digitally.
Advantages of DAB
● DAB stations are indicated by the programme name instead of the broadcasting frequency.
● With DAB, several radio programmes (services) can be broadcast on a single ensemble.
● Besides high-quality digital audio services, DAB is also able to transmit programme-associated
Page 34
34 Radio
data and a multitude of other data services including travel and traffic information.
● As long as a given DAB receiver can pick up the signal sent out by a broadcasting station (even if the signal is very weak), sound reproduction is ensured.
● In the event of poor reception, the volume is reduced automatically to avoid the output of disagreeable noises.
If the DAB signal is too weak to be picked up by the receiver, reception is interrupted completely. This can be avoided by activating DAB to DAB Linking and/or DAB to FM Linking in the DAB menu (see below).
● Interference caused by stations that are on nearby frequencies (a phenomenon that is typical of AM and FM reception) does not occur with DAB.
● If the DAB signal is reflected by natural obstacles or buildings, the reception quality of DAB is
improved, whereas AM or FM reception is considerably impaired in such cases.
● When DAB reception is enabled, the FM tuner of the Infotainment system remains active in the background and continually searches for the best receivable FM stations. If TP 3 32 is activated, traffic announcements of the FM station with the best reception are issued. Deactivate TP if you do not wish DAB reception to be interrupted by FM traffic announcements.
DAB settings
To configure the DAB settings options, activate the radio function and then select the DAB waveband. Select MENU in the interaction selector bar to display the DAB menu.
DAB announcements Besides their music programmes, many DAB stations also broadcast announcements of various categories. If you activate some or all categories, the DAB service currently received is interrupted when an announcement of these categories is made.
Select DAB Announcements to display the DAB categories list.
Select the desired categories. The categories selected are marked with
9.
Page 35
Radio 35
Notice DAB announcements can only be received if the DAB waveband is activated.
DAB to DAB Linking If this function is activated, the device switches over to the same service (programme) on another DAB ensemble (if available) when the DAB signal is too weak to be picked up by the receiver.
Set DAB to DAB Linking - On or DAB to DAB Linking - Off.
DAB to FM Linking If this function is activated, the device switches over to a corresponding FM station of the active DAB service (if available) when the DAB signal is too weak to be picked up by the receiver.
Set DAB to FM Linking - On or DAB to FM Linking - Off.
L Band If L Band is activated, the Infotainment system receives an additional frequency range. The
frequencies for L-band comprise earth and satellite radio (1452 - 1492 MHz).
Set L Band - On or L Band - Off.
Intellitext The Intellitext function allows for the reception of additional information such as announcements, financial information, sports, news etc.

Guidance ..................................... 55

General information

The navigation system will reliably guide you to your destination.
The current traffic situation is taken into account in the route calculation. For this purpose, the Infotainment system receives traffic announcements in the current reception area via RDS-TMC.
The navigation system cannot, however, take into account traffic incidents, traffic regulations changed at short notice and hazards or problems that arise suddenly (e.g. road works).
Caution
The usage of the navigation system does not release the driver from the responsibility for a correct, vigilant attitude in road traffic. The relevant traffic regulations must always be followed. If a navigation instruction contradicts traffic regulations, the traffic regulations always apply.
Functioning of the navigation system
The position and movement of the vehicle are detected by the navigation system using sensors. The travelled distance is determined by the vehicle's speedometer signal, turning movements on bends by a gyro sensor. The position is determined by the GPS (Global Positioning System) satellites.
By comparing the sensor signals with the digital maps, it is possible to determine the position with an accuracy of approx. 10 metres.
The system will also work with poor GPS reception. However, the accuracy of the determination of the position will be reduced.
After the entry of the destination address or point of interest (nearest petrol station, hotel, etc.), the route is calculated from the current location to the destination selected.
Route guidance is provided by voice output and an arrow, as well as with the aid of a multi-colour map display.
Page 43
Navigation 43
Important information
TMC traffic information system and dynamic route guidance
The TMC traffic information system receives all current traffic information from TMC radio stations. This information is included in the calculation of the overall route. During this process, the route is planned so that traffic problems related to pre­selected criteria are avoided.
If there is a traffic problem during active route guidance, depending on the pre-settings, a message appears as to whether the route should be changed.
TMC traffic information is displayed in the map display as symbols or as detailed text on the TMC messages menu.
To be able to use TMC traffic information, the system must receive TMC stations in the relevant region.
The TMC traffic stations can be selected in the navigation menu 3 43.
Map data All required map data is stored within the Infotainment system. To update your map software via the USB port, contact your workshop.

General 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 the
system functions, the speech recognition does not start until it has been activated.
Important information Language 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, see "Language" in chapter "System settings" 3 27.
Address input of destinations in foreign countries In case you want to enter the address of a destination located in a foreign country via voice input, you need to change the language of the Info­Display to the language of the foreign country.
Page 62
62 Speech recognition
E.g., if the display is currently set to English and you want to enter the name of a city located in France, you need to change the display language to French.
Exceptions: If you want to enter addresses in Belgium, you may optionally change the display language to French or Dutch. For addresses in Switzerland you may optionally change the display language to French, German, or Italian.
For changing the display language, see "Language" in chapter "System settings" 3 27.
Input order for destination addresses The order in which the parts of an address need to be entered using the speech recognition system is dependent on the country where the destination is located.
● Austria, Germany: <city> <street> <house number>
● Belgium, France, Great Britain:
<house number> <street> <city>
● Denmark, Italy, Netherlands, Poland, Portugal, Russia, Spain, Switzerland, Turkey:
<street> <house number> <city>
Setting up the speech recognition Several settings and adaptions for the embedded speech recognition of the Infotainment system can be performed.
Press ; and select SETTINGS on the home screen.
Select Voice item to enter the respective submenu.
Confidence Threshold Depending on the option selected in the corresponding submenu, the speech recognition appears more or less 'confident' in correctly understanding your commands.
Confirm More: If selected, the system asks you relatively often to confirm your commands. Consequently, the system performs the correct action in most cases.
Confirm Less: If selected, the system asks you less often to confirm your voice inputs. Consequently, the system might sometimes misinterpret your commands and not perform the correct action.
Notice When starting to use the speech recognition, it may be advantageous to use the Confirm More setting. As you get more experienced, i.e., you get to know how to pronounce your commands in a way the speech recognition understands you correctly, it may be advantageous to use the Confirm Less setting.
Page 63
Speech recognition 63
Prompt Length The length and the level of detail of the questions and statements the speech recognition gives out can be adjusted in the corresponding submenu.
Audio Feedback Speed The speed with which the speech recognition asks questions or makes statements can be adjusted in the corresponding submenu.
If Medium is selected, the system's speech rate corresponds to natural speech.
Notice When starting to use the speech recognition, it may be advantageous to use the Long setting. As you get more experienced, it may be advantageous to use the Short setting.
Display "What Can I Say?" Tips Depending on whether you want possible speech commands to be displayed on the screen, set Display "What Can I Say?" Tips to On or Off.
Voice pass-thru application
The voice pass-thru application of the Infotainment system allows access to the speech recognition commands on your smartphone.
The availability of this function depends on your smartphone. For more information on compatibility, see our website.

Usage

Embedded speech recognition
Activating speech recognition
Notice Speech recognition is not available during an active phone call.
Activation via the w button on the steering wheel Press w on the steering wheel.
The audio system mutes, a voice output message prompts you to say a command, and help menus with the most important commands currently available are shown on the Info­Display.
As soon as the speech recognition is ready for voice input, a beep is heard. The speech recognition symbol in the upper left corner of the help menu changes from white to red.
You can now say a voice command to initiate a system function (e.g. playing a preset radio station).
Activation via the VOICE screen button on the centre display Select VOICE in the interaction selector bar of a centre display main menu.
The audio system mutes, a voice output message prompts you to say a command, and a help menu with the most important commands currently available is shown on the centre display.
As soon as the speech recognition is ready for voice input, a beep is heard. The speech recognition symbol on the right side of the help menu changes from black to red.
You can now say a voice command, see description above.
Page 64
64 Speech recognition
Adjusting the volume of voice prompts
Press ! or # on the steering wheel upwards (increase volume) or downwards (decrease volume).
Interrupting a voice prompt As an experienced user, you can interrupt a voice prompt by briefly pressing w on the steering wheel.
A beep is heard immediately, the speech recognition symbol changes to red, and a command can be stated without having to wait.
Cancelling a dialogue sequence There are various ways to cancel a dialogue sequence and to deactivate the speech recognition:
● Say "Cancel" or "Exit".
● Press n on the steering wheel.
● If the speech recognition session was started via the VOICE screen button on the centre display, you may alternatively:
● Press ; on the control panel.
● Select m or Exit in the help
menu.
In the following situations, a dialogue sequence is automatically cancelled:
● If you do not say any command for a certain period of time (by default you are prompted three times to say a command).
● If you say commands that are not recognised by the system (by default you are prompted three times to say a correct command).
Operation via speech commands The speech recognition can understand commands that are either naturally stated in sentence form, or direct commands stating the application and the action.
For best results:
● Listen for the voice prompt and wait for the beep before saying a command or replying.
● Say "Help" or read the example commands on the screen.
● The voice prompt can be interrupted by pressing w again.
● Wait for the beep and then speak the command naturally, not too fast, not too slow. Use short and direct commands.
Usually commands can be spoken in a single command. For example, "Call David Smith at work", "Play" followed by the artist or song name, "Tune to" followed by the radio waveband and frequency/station name, or "Find address" followed by the address e.g. "123 Main Road, London".
In case of complex commands or when information is missing, the system starts a dialogue sequence.
When searching for a "Point of Interest", only major chains may be selected by name. Chains are businesses with at least 20 locations. For other POIs, say the name of a category, e.g. "Restaurants", "Shopping centres", or "Hospitals".
If you say "Phone" or "Phone commands", the system understands that a phone call is requested and responds with relevant questions until
Page 65
Speech recognition 65
enough details are gathered. If the phone number has been saved with a name and a place, the direct command should include both, for example "Call David Smith at work".
Selecting list items When a list is displayed, a voice prompt asks to confirm or select an item from that list. A list item may be manually selected, or by speaking the line number of the item.
The list on a speech recognition screen functions the same as a list on other screens. Manually scrolling the list on a screen during a speech recognition session suspends the current speech recognition event and plays a prompt like "Make your selection from the list using the manual controls, press the back button on the faceplate, or press the back screen button to try again".
If no manual selection is made within 15 seconds, the speech recognition session terminates, you are prompted with a message, and the former screen is redisplayed.
The "Back" command To return to the previous menu, optionally: say "Back", press k BACK on the control panel, or press m.
The "Help" command After saying "Help", the help prompt for the current screen is read aloud. Additionally, the prompt is displayed on the screen.
To interrupt the help prompt, press w. A beep is heard. You may say a command.

General information

The Infotainment system provides you with state-of-the-art in-car infotainment.
Using radio tuner functions, you may register up to 25 stations on five favourites pages.
You can connect external data storage devices to the Infotainment system as further audio sources; either via cable or via Bluetooth®.
In addition, the Infotainment system is equipped with a phone portal that allows for comfortable and safe use of your mobile phone in the vehicle.
You can also operate specific smartphone applications via the Infotainment system.
Optionally, the Infotainment system can be operated using the touch screen and buttons on the control panel, the controls on the steering wheel, or - if provided by your mobile phone - via speech recognition.
The well-thought-out design of the control elements, the touch screen and the clear displays enable you to control the system easily and intuitively.
Notice This manual describes all options and features available for the various Infotainment systems. Certain descriptions, including those
for display and menu functions, may
not apply to your vehicle due to model variant, country specifications, special equipment or accessories.
Important information on operation and traffic safety
9 Warning
The Infotainment system must be used so that the vehicle can be driven safely at all times. If in doubt, stop the vehicle and operate the Infotainment system while the vehicle is stationary.
Page 87
Radio reception
Radio reception may be disrupted by static, noise, distortion or loss of reception due to:
● changes in distance from the transmitter
● multipath reception due to reflection
● shadowing

Theft-deterrent feature

The Infotainment system is equipped with an electronic security system for the purpose of theft deterrence.
The Infotainment system therefore functions only in your vehicle and is worthless to a thief.
