The PCM can be equipped with an internal telephone (PCM telephone) as an optional accessory. This internal telephone (PCM telephone) is a quadband GSM radio telephone (GSM 850/900/ 1800/1900) with handset and hands-free operation. It conforms to the GSM standard (Global System for Mobile communication) currently implemented in more than 100 countries. For information on the current and planned expansion of the coverage areas of GSM networks, contact your network provider.
– In the case of a PCM with Bluetooth Mobile phone preparation, connection takes place using the hands-free profile. When connecting using the hands-free profile, the PCM simply serves as a Bluetooth handsfree unit for the external telephone. The SIM card of the external telephone cannot be accessed (for example to write a text message) and the range of functions is restricted accordingly (depending on the cell phone used).

The connection will then be established automatically and without the need for further checks in future. Further details can be found in the operating manual for your cell phone.

Learning about voice control Please refer to the notes on operation and road safety on page 6. The PCM is fully voice controllable (with the exception of the functions in the e and b menus as well as the various SET menus). The voice control system is designed so that you can generally say each menu item shown on the display. Exceptions are indicated by an appropriate message on the display of the PCM.
Speech intelligibility To make it easier for your voice control system to understand your commands, please note the following points: – The hands-free microphone is aimed at the driver's seat. The voice control system should therefore be operated by the driver. – Do not speak while the voice control system is making an announcement. – Speak without interruptions and at a normal volume. Avoid long pauses and excessive emphasis. – Reduce background noise by closing the windows, doors, and sunroof.
Commands The commands supported by the voice control system are divided into two categories: Local commands Global commands for the voice-controlled main functions: – – – – – – Tuner, Radio Disc, CD Phone, Telephone Info, Information Navi, Navigation Map, You can only say local commands within the respective main function. They are not listed here since they include all menu items shown on the display. The only exceptions are the e and b menus as well as the various SET menus.
Voice entries You can assign so-called voice entries for entries in the phonebook as well as for destinations in your personal destination memory. These voice entries are intended to make it easier for you to call up people or places with difficult to understand (e.g. foreign) names. You can assign 20 voice entries each for the phonebook and destination memory. Please note that the recognition of the voice entries depends on the language currently selected for the voice control system.
Setting the volume Setting the language You can change the volume of the voice control system announcements to compensate for changes in the ambient noise during the journey, for example. The voice control system recognizes various languages. When you change the language, it affects the voice input by the user, the voice output by the PCM, and the language shown on the display. 1. Activate the voice control system and say a command such as "help", for example. 2.
The following options are then available for you to select: – "Repeat" The voice control system repeats all recognized commands. You can switch off this repetition. Switching it off makes using the voice control system faster but this comes at the price of not knowing whether the voice control system has correctly recognized the command given. Voice entries and digits are always repeated, even if the function is switched off.
Deleting voice adaptation 1. Press the d button. 2. Press the i button or touch the tab of the same name in the header. 3. Select "SET PCM system" > "Voice control" > "Voice adaptation". 4.

The station list is available in the FM waveband and contains all currently receivable stations.
