Introduction

The information in this manual
supplements the Owner's Manual.

This manual describes features that
may or may not be on your specific
vehicle either because they are
optional or due to changes
subsequent to the printing of this
manual. Please refer to the purchase
documentation to confirm each of the
features found on the vehicle.

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.
This manual depicts left-hand drive
vehicles. Operation is similar for right­hand drive vehicles.

Keep this manual with the Owner's
Manual in the vehicle, so it will be
there if it is needed. If the vehicle is
sold, leave this manual in the vehicle.

Some functions of the Infotainment
system are disabled during driving, to
minimise driver distraction. A grayed­out function is not available when the
vehicle is moving.

All functions are available when the
vehicle is parked.

Before driving:

■ Become familiar with the
Infotainment system operation,
buttons on the faceplate, and
touch-sensitive screen buttons.

■ Set up the audio by presetting
favourite stations, setting the tone,
and adjusting the speakers.

■ Set up phone numbers in advance
so they can be dialled easily by
pressing a single button or by
making a single voice command for
vehicles equipped with phone
capability.

Note
This manual describes all options
and features available for the
various Infotainment systems.

If such a station is set, it is displayed
as TP.

Configuring RDS

To open the menu for the RDS
configuration:

1. Press the CONFIG button.

2. Select Radio and then RDS
Options.

Switching RDS on and off

Set RDS to On or Off. The following
advantages result through activating
RDS:

■ On the display the programme
name of the set station appears
instead of its frequency.

■ The Infotainment system always
tunes into the best receivable
broadcasting frequency of the set
station by means of AF (Alternative
Frequency).

■ Depending on the station that is
received, the Infotainment system
displays radio text that can contain,
e.g. information about the current
programme.

Switching regionalisation on
and off

RDS must be activated for
regionalisation. At certain times some
RDS stations broadcast regionally
different programmes on different
frequencies.

1. Set Regional to On or Off. Only
alternative frequencies (AF) with
the same regional programmes
are selected.

2. If regionalisation is switched off,
alternative frequencies of the
stations are selected without
regard to regional programmes.

RDS scrolling text

Some RDS stations use the lines for
indicating the name of the
programme to indicate additional
information. During this process the
programme name is hidden. To block
out the display of the additional
information, set text scroll freeze to
On.

Radio 19

DAB

The digital radio system DAB (Digital
Audio Broadcasting) is a universal
broadcast system.

DAB stations are indicated by the
programme name instead of the
broadcasting frequency.

General information

■ With DAB, several radio
programmes (services) can be
broadcast on a single frequency.

■ Besides high-quality digital audio
services, DAB is also able to
transmit programme-associated
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.

■ There is no fading (weakening of
the sound) that is typical of AM or
FM reception; the DAB signal is
reproduced at a constant volume.

■ If the DAB signal is too vague to be
interpreted by the receiver,
reception is interrupted completely.
This incident can be avoided by
activating DAB to DAB Service
Following and/or DAB to FM
Service Linking. See “Configuring
DAB” below.

■ Interference caused by stations on
nearby frequencies (typical of AM
and FM reception) does not occur
in connection 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
weakened in such cases.

■ The radio is also capable of
receiving DAB+ and DMB-Audio.

Configuring DAB

1. Press the CONFIG button.

2. Select Radio and then DAB.

The following options are available for
selection in the configuration menu:

■ DAB to DAB Service Following:
with this function activated, the
device switches over to another
service of the active DAB ensemble
(if available) when the DAB signal
is too vague to be interpreted by the
receiver.

■ DAB to FM Service Linking: with
this function activated, the device
switches over to a corresponding
FM station of the active DAB
service (if available) when the DAB
signal is too vague to be interpreted
by the receiver.

■ Dynamic Range Control: with this
function activated, the dynamic
range of the DAB signal is reduced.
This means the level of the loud
sounds is reduced, but not the level
of the quiet sounds. Therefore the
volume of the Infotainment system

20 Radio

can be raised to a point where the
quiet sounds are audible, without
the loud sounds being too loud.

■ Band Selection: after selection of
this option, DAB wavebands to be
received by the Infotainment
system can be defined.

DAB Announcements
Besides their music programmes,
numerous DAB stations broadcast
various announcement categories.
Radio or CD/MP3 playing is
interrupted when any
announcements are pending.

To select several announcement
categories at the same time:

1. Select DAB Announcements.

2. Activate the desired
announcement categories.

Radio reception

Frequency interference and static can
occur during normal radio reception if
items such as mobile phone
chargers, vehicle convenience
accessories and external electronic
devices are plugged into the
accessory power outlet. If there is
interference or static, unplug the item
from the accessory power outlet.

FM

FM signals only reach about 10 to
40 miles. Although the radio has a
built-in electronic circuit that
automatically works to reduce
interference, some static can occur,
especially around tall buildings or
hills, causing the sound to fade in and
out.

AM

The range for most AM stations is
greater than for FM, especially at
night. The longer range can cause
station frequencies to interfere with
each other. Static can occur when
things like storms and power lines
interfere with radio reception. When
this happens, try reducing the treble
on the radio.

Mobile phone usage

Mobile phone usage can cause
interference with the vehicle's radio.

Multi-band antenna

The multi-band antenna is located on
the roof of the vehicle. The antenna is
used for the AM/FM radio and GPS
(Global Positioning System); if the
vehicle has these features. Keep the
antenna clear of obstructions for clear
reception. If the vehicle has a sunroof
and it is open, the performance of the
AM/FM radio and GPS can be
affected.

Radio 21

Diversity antenna system

The FM antenna is a hidden self­tuning system. It optimizes the FM
signals relative to the vehicle's
position and radio station source. No
maintenance or adjustments are
needed.

Playing an audio CD

The system is capable of playing:

■ Most audio CDs

■ CD-R

■ CD-RW

■ MP3 or unprotected WMA and AAC
formats

When playing any compatible

be reduced due to disc quality, the
method of recording, the quality of the
music recorded or how the disc has
been handled.

There may be increased skipping,
difficulty reading recorded tracks,
finding tracks, and/or loading and
ejecting. If these problems occur,
check the disc for damage or try a
known good disc.

To avoid damage to the CD player:

■ Do not use scratched or damaged
discs.

■ Do not apply labels to discs. The
labels could get caught in the

Gracenote

®

Gracenote technology embedded
into the Infotainment system helps
manage and navigate the USB device
music collection. When a USB device
is connected to the Infotainment
system, Gracenote identifies the
music collection and delivers the
correct album, artist name, genres,
and cover art on the screen. If
information is missing, Gracenote will
fill it in.

Searching music library using voice
recognition
Gracenote improves music search
and navigation by identifying bands,
artists, and albums names that may
be hard to pronounce, irregular
spellings, and nicknames. For

example, Gracenote helps the
system understand artist names like
“INXS” or “Mötley Crüe”. It also allows
the use of names like: “The Boss” and
thousands of other famous artist
nicknames as voice commands to
access music. Voice recognition
3 56.

Normalisation
Normalisation helps to improve the
voice recognition accuracy for titles
that sound similar. It also helps group
long lists of genres into 10 common
genres. For example, there may be
multiple rock genres in the media
library; normalisation will group all
those into one rock Genre.
Normalisation default is off.

To turn Normalisation on:

1. Press CONFIG or Config on the
Home Page.

2. Press Radio Settings, then press
Gracenote Options.

3. Press Normalisation to turn on or
off.

Cover art
The Gracenote embedded database
contains cover art or album art
information for the music on the USB
device. If the music is recognized by
Gracenote and does have cover art,
Gracenote will use the cover art found
in the embedded database and
display it on the Infotainment system.
User predefined cover art will always
be used first. If no cover art is found
Gracenote will use generic Genre
graphics or images of artists.

More Like This
The Gracenote database contains
attributes for Music, e.g. genre, era of
music, region, artist type, mood, etc.
Use this to create a playlist of up to 30
songs "more like" currently listened to
song. This playlist will be stored in the

External devices 27

Play Lists menu when the device is
reconnected. If songs are removed
from the device, the system will
simply skip over those songs and play
the next available song. Use the
touch screen or voice recognition to
create a More Like This Playlist.
Voice recognition 3 56.

Gracenote indexing
While Gracenote is indexing,
Infotainment features are available
including selecting music from the
menu. Voice recognition music will
not be available until the Infotainment
system has completed indexing the
device. Devices with more music may
take longer to index. The device will
index when plugged into the
Infotainment system for the first time.
When Indexing is removed from the
screen, the Infotainment system is
ready to support music search. On
the next connection or ignition cycle,
Indexing will be displayed briefly on
the screen. The Infotainment system
searches for changes to the device
and prepares the music list. If there
are no changes, the voice recognition
music search will be available. The

Infotainment system will index and
store two devices with up to
10,000 songs on each device.

USB picture function
Pictures can only be viewed using

Global Positioning System

The position of the vehicle is
determined by using satellite signals,
various vehicle signals and map data.

At times, other interferences, e.g. the
satellite condition, road configuration,
the condition of the vehicle and/or
other circumstances can interfere
with the navigation system's ability to
determine the accurate position of the
vehicle.

The GPS shows the current position
of the vehicle using signals sent by
the GPS Satellites. When the vehicle
is not receiving signals from the
satellites, a symbol appears on the
map screen. Symbols overview 3 38.

This system might not be available or
interferences can occur if any of the
following is true:

■ Signals are obstructed by tall
buildings, trees, large trucks or a
tunnel.

■ Satellites are being repaired or
improved.

For more information if the GPS is not
functioning properly, see Problems
with route guidance and Service of
the navigation system 3 55.

Vehicle positioning

At times, the position of the vehicle
could be inaccurate due to one or
more of the following reasons:

■ The road system has changed.

■ The vehicle is driving on slippery
road surfaces, e.g. in sand, gravel
and/or snow.

■ The vehicle is travelling on winding
roads or long straight roads.

■ The vehicle is approaching a tall
building or a large vehicle.

■ The surface streets run parallel to a
freeway.

■ The vehicle has been transferred
by a vehicle carrier or a ferry.

■ The current position calibration is
set incorrectly.

■ The vehicle is travelling at high
speed.

■ The vehicle changes directions
more than once or when the vehicle
is turning on a turn table in a parking
lot.

■ The vehicle is entering and/or
exiting a parking lot, garage or a lot
with a roof.

■ The GPS signal is not received.

■ A roof carrier is installed on the
vehicle.

■ Tyre chains have been installed.

■ The tyres are replaced or worn.

■ The tyre pressure for the tyres is
incorrect.

Navigation 55

■ This is the first navigation use after
the map data is updated.

■ The 12-volt battery is disconnected
for several days.

■ The vehicle is driving in heavy
traffic where driving is at low
speeds and the vehicle is stopped
and started repeatedly.

Problems with route
guidance

Inappropriate route guidance can
occur under one or more of the
following conditions:

■ The turn was not made on the road
indicated.

■ Route guidance might not be
available when using automatic
rerouting for the next right or left
turn.

■ The route might not be changed
when using automatic rerouting.

■ There is no route guidance when
turning at an intersection.

■ Plural names of places might be
announced occasionally.

■ It could take a long time to operate
automatic rerouting during high­speed driving.

■ Automatic rerouting might display a
route returning to the set waypoint
if heading for a destination without
passing through a set waypoint.

■ The route prohibits the entry of a
vehicle due to a regulation by time
or season or any other regulation
which may be given.

■ Some routes might not be
searched.

■ The route to the destination might
not be shown if there are new
roads, if roads have recently
changed, or if certain roads are not
listed in the map data.

Maps 3 37.

To recalibrate the vehicle's position
on the map, park the vehicle with the
engine running for two to five minutes,
until the vehicle position updates.

Service of the navigation system

If the navigation system needs
servicing and the steps listed here
have been followed but there are still
problems, see your workshop for

56 Voice recognition

Voice recognition

Voice recognition ......................... 56

Voice recognition

Voice recognition allows for hands­free operation of the Infotainment
system features.

Voice recognition can be used when
the Infotainment system is on or when
retained power off is active. See
"Retained power off" in the Owner's
Manual. The system maintains a
minimum volume level.

Using voice recognition

1. Press and release the 3
steering wheel button. The audio
system mutes and a beep is
heard. A voice prompt states,
“Please say a command.” Wait
until the tone is heard before
speaking.

If there is no tone, make sure that
the volume is turned up.

While voice recognition is active,
the system displays a w symbol in
the top right of the screen.

2. Clearly speak one of the
commands listed later in this
section.

Press q / w twice on the steering
wheel to skip the voice prompt
messages.

Cancelling voice recognition

1. Press and release the 4
steering wheel control button to
cancel a command, if the system
response does not match the
verbal command or say
“(Goodbye | Cheerio | Bye [Bye])”
or “Cancel”.

2. The system replies “(Goodbye |
Cheerio | Bye [Bye])”.

Helpful hints for speaking
commands

■ When multiple commands are
available, choose the command
that best works for you.

Voice recognition 57

■ Words in parenthesis are optional.
For example, for the command
“Tune FM …,” saying ”Tune FM

87.7” or “Tune FM” are both valid
commands.

■ When the command is recognised,
the system will either perform the
function or ask to confirm the
choice.

■ When the system does not
recognise the command, the
system says “Pardon?.”

■ If experiencing difficulty with the
system recognising a command,
confirm that the command is
correct. Try saying the command
clearly or wait for a brief moment
after the tone.

■ Background noise, e.g. a climate
control fan positioned on high, open
windows and very loud outside
noises, even if the windows are
closed, can cause voice commands
to be misunderstood.

■ The system is able to recognise
commands in different languages,
e.g. English, Canadian French and
Spanish. The system only

recognizes commands based on
the language selected.

To increase or decrease the voice
volume during a voice recognition
session, turn the volume knob of
the Infotainment system, or press
the volume button on the steering
wheel controls. If the volume is
adjusted during a voice recognition
session, a Volume bar appears on
the screen showing the voice
volume level as it is being adjusted.
This also changes the volume of
the guidance prompts.

■ When using navigation commands,
take the time to become familiar
with the address. Long delays
when giving the address can result
in the system not recognising the
address or routing to a different
location than intended.

■ When providing the house number
portion of the address, the system
recognises both digit format and

numerical text. An example would
be to say, “3-0-0-0-1” or “Thirty
Thousand One.”

■ If the system provides a destination
in another country after several
attempts, say the “(Select |
Change) Country” command and
say the desired country.

Voice recognition help
