Voice Control* troubleshooting
Problem Possible cause/consequence Suggested solution
Voice Control System does not recognize
commands. You have not operated the system from the
driver’s seat. ̈ Operate the Voice Control System only
by the driver as the microphone is
geared to the driver side.
You have spoken unclearly, too loudly or
too quietly. ̈ Speak the commands in a continuous
manner using a normal tone.
A blower is set to the highest setting or
wind noise is being created through open
windows. ̈ Avoid loud disturbances.
Voice Control System does not recognize a
address book entry. The voice entries in the address book sound
too similar. ̈ When you create your address book en-
tries, select names with the greatest
possible acoustic differences: If for ex-
ample you have the names Smith and
Schmidt, choose for example “Smith
work” or “Schmidt John”.
̈ Speak the command “List phone book”.
The system reads out the address book
entry by entry.
̈ Press ! when the desired entry is
being read out.
The entry is selected and the corre-
sponding number is dialed
