Voice Control troubleshooting Entering digits and spelling Entering digits RDigits from “Zero” to “Nine” may be used. RSpeaking phone numbers in digit blocks of

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

Spelling RThe letters of the English alphabet and the

digits 0 - 9 may be used.

RSpeak the letters in blocks of 5 - 7 letters

at a time.

RSpeak 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.

284

Suggested solution X When you create your address book

entries, select names with the greatest possible acoustic differences.

X Speak the command “List station list”.

The system reads out the station list entry by entry.

X Press ! when the desired station name

is being read out. The station is selected (Y page 268).

Problem Should interference occur during the process of storing a name, the Voice Control System prompts you to repeat your voice entry a third and fourth time. If the interference continues, the dialog is stopped. Voice Control System does not recognize commands.

Possible cause/consequence Both voice entries differ.

Control systems

Voice Control troubleshooting

Suggested solution X Pronounce the voice entries both times in

the same manner.

You have not operated the system from the driver’s seat.

X 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.

X Speak the commands in a continuous

manner using a normal tone.

A blower is set to the highest setting, vents are pointed at microphones or wind noise is being created through open windows.

X Avoid loud disturbances.
