왔 Voice Control troubleshooting Help function
To support the user, the Voice Control Sys- tem contains an extensive help function. The help function gives you: 앫 General hints on how to best use the
Voice Control System
앫 A listing of all available commands
Help commands
“Help voice control” Using the command “Help voice control” will give you information on how to best use the Voice Control System.
“Help” In a main menu, help can be accessed at any time by saying the command “Help”. The Voice Control System will then read out the available functions and commands of all systems.
In a submenu, help can also be accessed at any time by saying the command “Help”. The Voice Control System will then read out an option list of all available functions and commands available in the particular submenu. You can also use the help function to ac- cess help for a specific system. To access help for the phone operation, you would speak the command “Help Telephone”. If you wish to execute the last command read out: 왘 Press !.
Help window
You can use the help window to view a se- lection of valid commands on the COMAND display. The help functions can be switched on or off via COMAND in the “System settings” menu (컄 page 229).

Entering digits and spelling
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.

Control systems Voice Control troubleshooting
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.
318
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 301).
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 a 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 284).

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 229). 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 locking tabs for the mechanical key portion of the two SmartKeys are of differ- ent color to help distinguish each SmartKey unit. 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 324): 앫 the doors 앫 the trunk 앫 the fuel filler flap
322
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.

Seat adjustment
Warning!
Do not adjust the driver’s seat while driving. Adjusting the seat while driving could cause the driver to lose control of the vehicle.
Never ride in a moving vehicle with the seat back in an excessively reclined position as this can be dangerous. You could slide un- der the seat belt in a collision. If you slide under it, the belt would apply force at the ab- domen or neck. That could cause serious or fatal injuries. The seat backrest and seat belts provide the best restraint when the wearer is in a nearly upright position and belts are properly positioned on the body.
Your seat must be adjusted so that you can correctly fasten your seat belt (컄 page 360). Observe the following points: 앫 Adjust the backrest until your arms are slightly angled when holding the steer- ing wheel.
앫 Adjust the seat to a comfortable seating position that still allows you to reach the accelerator/brake pedal safely. The po- sition should be as far back as possible with the driver still able to operate the controls properly.
앫 Adjust the head restraint so that it is as
close to the head as possible and the center of the head restraint supports the back of the head at eye level.
앫 Never place hands under the seat or
near any moving parts while a seat is be- ing adjusted.
Failure to do so could result in an accident and/or serious personal injury.
When leaving the vehicle, always remove the SmartKey or SmartKey with KEYLESS-GO* from the starter switch, take it with you, and lock the vehicle.
Even with the SmartKey or SmartKey with KEYLESS-GO* removed from the starter switch or the SmartKey with KEYLESS-GO* removed from the vehicle, the power seats can be operated when the respective door is open. Therefore, 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.

Front power seat adjustment
According to accident statistics, children are safer when properly restrained in the rear seating positions than in the front seat- ing position. Thus, we strongly recommend that children be placed in the rear seats whenever possible. Regardless of seating position, children 12 years old and under must be seated and properly secured in an appropriately sized infant restraint, toddler restraint, or booster seat recommended for the size and weight of the child. For addi- tional information, see “Children in the vehi- cle” (컄 page 57). A child’s risk of serious or fatal injuries is significantly increased if the child restraints are not properly secured in the vehicle and the child is not properly secured in the child restraint.
You can adjust the lumbar support (CL 550) for driver and front passenger, or operate the drive-dynamic multicontour front seats* using COMAND (컄 page 250).

Warning!
When adjusting the front passenger seat, make sure the seat, if occupied, is as far from the passenger front air bag as possi- ble.
Otherwise, the passenger could be seriously or even fatally injured in the event of an ac- cident or braking maneuver.
Make sure no one is caught or injured while the seat is being adjusted.
Even with the SmartKey or SmartKey with KEYLESS-GO* removed from the starter switch or the SmartKey with KEYLESS-GO* removed from the vehicle, the power seats can be operated when the respective door is open.
