Notes
Notes on Emergency Requests
Do not use the voice activation system to ini-
tiate an Emergency Request. In stressful situa-
tions, the voice and vocal pitch can change.
This can unnecessarily delay the establishment
of a telephone connection. Use the SOS but-
*
ton instead, refer to page 239.
Important for voice commands
For voice commands, bear in mind the follow-
ing:
> Say the commands, numbers and letters
smoothly and with normal volume,
emphasis and speed.
> Always say commands in the language of
the voice activation system.
> Keep the doors, windows, glass roof
*
convertible top closed to prevent interfer-
ence from outside noise.
> Avoid ambient noise in the vehicle while
speaking.
