Warning!

Please do not use the Voice Control System
in an emergency, as the tone of your voice
may change in a stressful situation. This could
cause a delay in completing your phone call
in a timely manner. This could distract you in
an emergency situation and cause you to be
involved in an accident.

You control these systems using spoken
commands. Moreover, controls such as the
buttons on the multifunction steering wheel
(

Y

page 238) allow you to keep your hands

on the steering wheel.
The Voice Control System recognizes
commands and number sequences,
irrespective of the speaker. To optimize
speech recognition for your voice follow the
individualization process (

Y

page 271).

You can use the Voice Control System to call
up all of COMAND’s main menu items.
The commands can be spoken without
pausing between the individual words. If an
unavailable or incorrect command is used,
the Voice Control System will prompt you for
a new command by asking “Please repeat” or
“Please repeat your entry”.
The Voice Control System will confirm
important commands and inform you in case
of incorrect entries.

To support the user, the Voice Control

System contains an extensive help function
(

Y

page 267).

You can use the commands “Continue” or
“Back” to scroll up or down in lists.
The command “Correction” lets you repeat
the entry.
