General information

The navigation system will reliablyguide you to your destination withoutthe need to read maps, even if youhave no local knowledge whatsoever.The current traffic situation is takeninto account in the route calculation ifdynamic route guidance is used. Forthis purpose the Infotainment systemreceives traffic announcements in thecurrent reception area via RDS TMC.The navigation system cannot,however, take into account trafficincidents, traffic regulations changedat short notice and hazards orproblems that arise suddenly (e. g.road works).

Caution

The usage of the navigationsystem does not release the driverfrom the responsibility fora correct, vigilant attitude in roadtraffic. The relevant trafficregulations must always befollowed. If a navigation instructioncontradicts traffic regulations, thetraffic regulations always apply.

Functioning of the navigationsystemThe position and movement of thevehicle are detected by the navigationsystem using sensors. The travelleddistance is determined by thevehicle's speedometer signal, turningmovements on bends by a gyrosensor. The position is determined byGPS satellites (Global PositioningSystem).By comparing the sensor signals withthe digital maps on the navigationDVD/CD, it is possible to determinethe position with an accuracy ofapprox. 10 m.

Navigation 37

The system will also work with poorGPS reception, however, theaccuracy of the determination of theposition will be reduced, resulting inincorrect position messages.Poor GPS reception is indicated bythe w symbol in the main display.After the entry of the destinationaddress or point of interest (nearestpetrol station, hotel, etc.) the route iscalculated from the current location tothe destination selected.The route guidance is provided byvoice output and an arrow, as well aswith the aid of a multi-colour mapdisplay or a combination of both.

Important information on mapDVDs/CDs

Caution

Under no circumstances placeDVDs, single-CDs with a diameterof 8 cm or shaped CDs in the audioplayer.

You must not put any stickers onCDs. These discs can get jammedin the CD drive and ruin the drive.An expensive replacement of thedevice will then be necessary.

■ Only use map DVDs/CDs approvedby the vehicle manufacturer. TheInfotainment system will not readmap DVDs/CDs from othermanufacturers.

■ Never insert navigation DVDs intothe audio CD slot. DVDs maybecome jammed in the CD player.The unit will then have to beexchanged at your expense.

■ It is recommended to always usethe latest map DVD/CD approvedby the vehicle manufacturer for theInfotainment system.

■ CD 70 NAVI only: The Europeantrunk road network and the majorEuropean cities are stored on allnavigation CDs.DVD 90 NAVI only: The detailedroad network of all countriesdisplayed in the destination input isstored on the navigation DVD. It is

not necessary to change DVDwhen crossing borders.

■ For more information on navigationDVDs/CDs, we recommend youcontact an authorised Opel Partner.

■ Avoid leaving fingerprints when youchange map DVDs/CDs.

■ Put map DVDs/CDs back in theirsleeves immediately after removingthem from the Infotainment systemin order to protect them fromdamage and dirt.

With dynamic guidance, the whole ofthe current traffic situation that isreceived by the Infotainment systemvia RDS TMC is incorporated into thecalculation of the route.If there is a traffic hold-up (e.g. trafficjam, road closure) on the plannedroute, you will be informed of this bythe Infotainment system and you candecide whether the system shouldavoid the problem by changing theroute in order to avoid the segmentconcerned or whether it would bemore sensible just to drive throughthe problematic road section.This enables the system to checkcontinuously during guidance on thebasis of the traffic informationwhether there is a better route forroute guidance and a new route issometimes calculated, for example, ifa traffic jam has disappeared.■ Dynamic guidance can be

activated/deactivated in thenavigation Settings menu 3 38.

■ The basis for the possible delaydue to a traffic hold-up andcalculated by the Infotainment

system is data that the systemreceives via the currently selectedRDS TMC station. Fromexperience, the actual delay maydeviate from the calculation.

■ The dynamic guidance only worksif the Infotainment system receivestraffic information via RDS TMC.TMC reception is indicated by theTMC symbol in the main display ofthe Audio function.

Depending on the traffic situation,there are two different types of detour:

1. Extensive detourAs soon as the Infotainment systemhas received information about one ormore traffic hold-ups via RDS TMCthat would mean a relatively longdelay for navigation to yourdestination, the system offers youwell in advance of the hold-up theoption of taking a detour around thetraffic hold-ups.If a relatively long delay on your routeis expected due to traffic hold-ups,a message informing you of thecalculated delay is given.

■ Select Recalculate if you want tomake an extensive detour aroundthe traffic hold-ups.

■ Select Cancel if you do not want tomake a detour.

Even after cancelling, it is possible tohave the route recalculated via theDetour menu item.Traffic hold-ups that are expected toresult in just a short delay aredetoured locally if desired via theDetour function (see below).In the immediate vicinity of a traffichold-up, a warning is issued againand a detour of the immediate trafficholdup (local detour) is offered via theDetour menu item.

2. Local Detour

Voice recognition

Voice recognition ....................... 151

Voice recognitionThe speech recognition systemenables you to operate some of themobile telephone’s functions by voiceinput. It recognises commands andsequences of numbers independentlyof the person speaking. Thecommands and sequences ofnumbers can be spoken withouta break between the individual words.You can also save telephonenumbers using a name randomlychosen (voice tag). The telephoneconnection can be created using thisname.If the speech recognition system failsto operate properly or fails torecognise your voice, it provides youwith acoustic messages and asks youto input the command you want again.The speech recognition system alsoprovides an answer to importantcommands and, if required, makesenquiries.Stop the voice dialogue at any time byre-pressing q.

Before you dial a telephone number,the following preconditions mustexist:■ The mobile telephone must be

ready for operation and slotted intothe telephone-specific adapter, ora Bluetooth™ connection mustexist.

■ The mobile telephone must belogged in.

To prevent conversations being heldin the interior of the vehicle fromcausing inadvertent control of themobile telephone or audio system,the speech recognition system onlystarts once it has been activated.

Activating the speechrecognition systemBy pressing q, the speechrecognition system is activated andthe symbol q appears on the display.The radio is switched to "silent" for theduration of the dialogue. Any trafficnews coming in will be interrupted.The functions can only then beoperated if the mobile telephone islogged into a network.

152 Voice recognition

Ending the dialogueThere are various ways to deactivatethe speech recognition system andend the dialogue:■ By pressing q■ Time-outs: if nothing has been

input for a certain period of timeThe speech recognition system isalso interrupted by an incoming call.

OperationWith the aid of the speech recognitionsystem, the mobile telephone can beoperated very comfortably using thevoice input function. Simply activatethe speech recognition system andsay the desired command. Once thecommand has been input, you will beled through the dialogue with thecorresponding questions andmessages in order to reach therequired action.Say the commands and digits ina normal voice, without any artificialpauses between the numbers.

Recognition is most successful whenyou pause for at least half a secondafter every three to five numbers.The Infotainment systemsimultaneously reacts to commandswith voice messages and displays.

SIM cardIf no SIM card has been inserted, thefollowing message appears: Pleaseinsert a SIM card!Once you have inserted a SIM card,you will be asked to enter the PINcode. For more on this, see the nextsection.

PIN codeIf the PIN code has not been entered,the following message appears:Please enter the PIN code!.Now say the PIN code in a normalvoice, without any artificial pausesbetween the numbers.

The following commands areavailable:■ "Accept": The PIN code is

confirmed.■ "Change": The number last entered

is deleted.■ "Delete": The PIN code is deleted.■ "Additional digits": Additional

numbers can be entered.Example of a dialogue whereby a PINcode is entered:Voice output: "Please enter the PINcode!"User: "One Two Three Four – Accept"Voice output: "The PIN code isincorrect!"User: "Four Three Two One – Accept"Voice output: "The PIN code hasbeen accepted"

Main commandsAfter the speech recognition systemhas been activated, you will heara short sound, which is a signal to

Voice recognition 153

inform you that the speechrecognition system is waiting for aninput.The following commands areavailable:■ "Call"■ "Redial"■ "Save"■ "Delete"■ "Phonebook"■ "Help"■ "Cancel"Detailed description of thesecommands see below.

"Call"Using this command, you can inputa telephone number which has beensaved in the phone book undera name (voice tag) or which is to beused to create a connection. After thiscommand, the following commandsare available:

■ "Number": The connection iscreated using the number entered.

■ "Name": The connection is createdusing the voice tag.

"Number"After this command has been given,you will be asked to enter the number.The Infotainment system repeats therecognised numbers. You can theninput additional numbers or thefollowing commands:■ "Call" or "Accept": The inputs are

accepted.■ "Change": The last block of

numbers has been deleted.■ "Delete": The complete input has

been deleted.■ "Help": The dialogue is ended and

all commands available in thiscontext are listed.

■ "Plus": A plus is placed before thenumber for foreign calls.

■ "Additional digits": Additional digitsare being added.

■ "Cancel:" Ending the diallingprocess. After the request fora correction, all blocks of numbers

previously entered are repeatedwith the exception of the last block.If all inputs have been deleted, youare once again asked to inputa telephone number.

If there is a voice pause of more thanone second between the individualnumbers, the Infotainment systemassumes that the process of inputtingthe block of numbers has ended andrepeats the block of numbers.In order to make a foreign call, youcan say the word "Plus" (+) in front ofthe number. The plus allows you tomake a call from that country withoutknowing the foreign dialling code forthe country in question. Then say thecountry code.The country code corresponds to theconventional format, i. e. 49 forGermany, 44 for Great Britain, etc.The "0" must be left out of the localnetwork code (dialling code) except inItaly.Example of a dialogue between theuser and voice output to diala telephone number:User: "Call"

154 Voice recognition

Voice output: "Name or Number?"User: "Number"Voice output: "The number, please!"User: "Plus Four Nine"Voice output repeats: "Plus FourNine"User: "Seven Three One"Voice output repeats: "Seven ThreeOne"User: "One One Nine Nine"Voice output repeats: "One One NineNine"User: "Change"Voice output repeats the blocks ofnumbers previously input: "Plus FourNine – Seven Three One"User: "One One Nine One"Voice output repeats: "One One NineOne"User: "Call"Voice output: "The number is beingdialled"

"Name"Using this command, you can selecta telephone number under a name(voice tag).If the system recognises a name entryalready available, it is shown on thedisplay. The symbol q representinga voice tag appears to the right of thename. The connection is createdusing the voice tag.

A maximum of 25 voice tags can bestored in the phone book. If 25 voicetags are already stored, the messageis given "The speech memory is full!".Voice tags are dependent on thespeaker, which means that only theperson who has spoken in the voicetag can select it.After three invalid attempts, thespeech recognition system is turnedoff automatically.It can happen that the two namesinput are too different for the speechrecognition system, which thenrejects them. You can then decide ifyou want to input the names again orend the process:■ "Yes": Input the names again.■ "No"/"Cancel": The dialogue is

ended without anything beingsaved.

In order to prevent a cut-off at thebeginning of the recording whennames are being saved, a shortpause should be left after the requestfor an input.

Voice recognition 155

In order to be able to use the voice tagindependently of the location, i.e. inother countries, all telephonenumbers should be entered witha "Plus" and the country code.Example of a name being saved asa voice tag:User: "Call"Voice output: "Name or Number?"User: "Name"Voice output: "The name, please!"User: <Miriam>Voice output: "The number, please!".User: "Plus Four Nine"Voice output: "Plus Four Nine"User: Seven Three One.Voice output: "Seven Three One"User: "One One Nine One"Voice output: "One One Nine One"User: "Save"Instead of "Save" you can also usethe command "Accept".
