Before your journey, please familiarize your-
self with the address book functions.

Overview

The address book gives you the option of
storing information about people in the
form of entries.
Using voice control, you can dial a phone
number stored in the address book or start
route guidance for a stored address.
Apart from the speaker-dependent voice
tags stored in the address book, voice con-
trol can recognize all the entries in the
name fields of the address book. Recogni-
tion of the entries in the address book de-
230
pends on the text that was entered. To
make a call you must say the text of the en-
try.
Check the address book entries for the fol-
lowing:
The name entries, e.g. last name and
first name, are in the right fields.
Do not use abbreviations or acronyms.
Avoid unnecessary spaces in names.
Do not use special characters.
You can improve voice recognition by sav-
ing a speaker-dependent voice tag for ad-
dress book entries.
Use a speaker-dependent voice tag:
for names which are difficult to pro-
nounce
to distinguish names which sound sim-
ilar
for names which are not pronounced as
they are written
Voice control can store up to 50 of these
address book entries by means of a speak-
er-dependent voice tag.
