Entering digits 앫 Digits from “Zero” to “Nine” may be

used.

앫 Speaking phone numbers in digit

blocks of 3 to 5 digits has proven a very reliable method for the input of phone numbers.

Spelling 앫 The letters of the English alphabet and

the digits 0 - 9 may be used.

앫 Speak the letters in blocks of 5 - 7 let-

ters at a time.

앫 Speak each individual letter clearly.

What to do if ...

Problem Voice Control System does not recognize a station list entry.

Possible cause/consequence The voice entries for the station names sound too similar.

Should interference occur during the pro- cess of storing a name, the Voice Control System prompts you to repeat your voice entry a third and fourth time. If the interfer- ence continues, the dialog is stopped.

Both voice entries differ.

348

Suggested solution 왘 When you create your address book en-

tries, select names with the greatest possible acoustic differences.

왘 Speak the command “List station list”. The system reads out the station list en- try by entry.

왘 Press ! when the desired station

name is being read out. The station is selected (컄 page 331).

왘 Pronounce the voice entries both times

in the same manner.

Problem Voice Control System does not recognize commands.

Possible cause/consequence You have not operated the system from the driver’s seat.

You have spoken unclearly, too loudly or too quietly. A blower is set to the highest setting, vents are pointed at microphones or wind noise is being created through open windows. The voice entries in the address book sound too similar.

Voice Control System does not recognize an address book entry.

Control systems Voice Control troubleshooting

Suggested solution 왘 Operate the Voice Control System only

by the driver as the microphone is geared to the driver side.

왘 Speak the commands in a continuous

manner using a normal tone.

왘 Avoid loud disturbances.

왘 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”.

왘 Speak the command “List phone book”. The system reads out the address book entry by entry.

왘 Press ! when the desired entry is

being read out. The entry is selected and the corre- sponding number is dialed (컄 page 314).

Control systems Voice Control individualization

i The individualization can only be performed when the vehicle is stationary. If you drive off, the individualization will be can- celed. After starting the session, the system will guide you through the individualization by means of acoustic instructions.

The individualization is used to adapt the Voice Control System to your own voice and to therefore improve speech recogni- tion. This does not affect the speech rec- ognition of other users.

Individualization consists of two stages: 앫 Digits 앫 Commands You can activate individualization in the COMAND system settings (컄 page 257). A dialog and screen displays will guide you through the individualization process. The system can be reset to the factory set- tings at any time.

i You may wish to complete only a portion of the individualization process. Completing the digits portion alone may result in an improved recognition rate. Individualization can be exited at any time. The data trained, however, will only be retained if a given individualization portion is completed and the data is stored when prompted to do so by the system.

SmartKey

Your vehicle comes supplied with two SmartKeys, each with remote control and a removable mechanical key. The SmartKey provides an extended oper- ating range. To prevent theft, however, it is advisable to only unlock the vehicle when you are in close proximity to it. The SmartKey centrally locks and unlocks, when set to factory settings (컄 page 354): 앫 the doors 앫 the trunk 앫 the fuel filler flap

352

Warning!

When leaving the vehicle, always remove the SmartKey from the starter switch, take it with you, and lock the vehicle. Do not leave children unattended in the vehicle, or with access to an unlocked vehicle. A child’s unsupervised access to a vehicle could result in an accident and/or serious personal injury.

Warning!

To prevent possible personal injury, always keep hands and fingers away from the door or trunk lid opening when closing a door or the trunk. Be especially careful when small children are around.

Before closing doors, make sure there is no possibility of someone getting caught in a door during closing.

! The side windows will not open or close if the battery is discharged or the windows are cov- ered with ice. As a result, you may no longer be able to properly close the door. Do not attempt to force the door shut. Doing so may damage the door or the side window. Correct the condition that prevents the windows from operating before attempting to close the door.

SmartKey with KEYLESS-GO*

Vehicles equipped with KEYLESS-GO come with two SmartKeys with KEYLESS-GO, each with remote control and a removable mechanical key. The KEYLESS-GO function is integrated into the SmartKey. On these vehicles, the validity of the SmartKey with KEYLESS-GO is checked every time you grasp an outside door handle. With the KEYLESS-GO function, you can lock and unlock the vehicle without using the remote control buttons on the SmartKey and start the engine without in- serting the SmartKey in the starter switch.

When leaving the vehicle, always take the SmartKey with KEYLESS-GO* with you and lock the vehicle. Do not leave children unat- tended in the vehicle, or with access to an unlocked vehicle. A child’s unsupervised ac- cess to a vehicle could result in an accident and/or serious personal injury.

Children could start the vehicle with a valid SmartKey with KEYLESS-GO left in the vehicle or with the KEYLESS-GO button on the starter switch, or could release the electronic parking brake, thereby putting themselves and others in danger. Switch off the engine and take the SmartKey with KEYLESS-GO with you even if you are only leaving the vehicle for a short while.

Important notes on using KEYLESS-GO 앫 You can also use the SmartKey with KEYLESS-GO like a normal SmartKey (컄 page 352). The starter switch is located under the KEYLESS-GO button. Pull the KEYLESS-GO button out in order to ac- cess the starter switch.

앫 You can combine KEYLESS-GO func-

tions with normal SmartKey functions (e.g. unlocking with KEYLESS-GO and locking with button ‹).

앫 Always carry the SmartKey with

KEYLESS-GO with you.

앫 Never store the SmartKey with

KEYLESS-GO together with: 앫 Electronic items such as a mobile phone or another SmartKey with KEYLESS-GO

앫 Metallic objects such as coins or

metal foil

Doing so could impair the function of the KEYLESS-GO system.

358

앫 To lock or unlock the vehicle, the

SmartKey with KEYLESS-GO must be located outside the vehicle within ap- proximately 3 ft (1 m) of a door or the trunk lid.

앫 If the vehicle has been parked for more than 72 hours, you must pull an outside door handle in order to activate the KEYLESS-GO function.

앫 In order to start the engine with the

SmartKey with KEYLESS-GO: 앫 The SmartKey with KEYLESS-GO

must be located in the vehicle.

앫 The KEYLESS-GO start/stop button

must be inserted in the starter switch (컄 page 366).

앫 The brake pedal must be firmly de- pressed. Do not depress the accel- erator.

앫 If the SmartKey with KEYLESS-GO is positioned farther away from the vehi- cle, the system may no longer recog- nize the SmartKey with KEYLESS-GO. The vehicle then cannot be locked or the engine started via the KEYLESS-GO system.

앫 If the SmartKey with KEYLESS-GO is re- moved from the vehicle (e.g. if passen- ger exits the vehicle with the SmartKey with KEYLESS-GO) 앫 when pressing the KEYLESS-GO

start/stop button or trying to lock the vehicle with the outside door handle the message “Key Not Detected” appears in the multifunction display

앫 with the engine running, the mes-
