No satnav voice commands

Featured Replies

Picked up our new SEL a couple of weeks ago, and just had occasion to use the satnav. No matter what I do, I can't get it to give voice commands. Am I missing something?

Are you using “OK Laura” or steering wheel button to activate?

I'm just selecting a route on the display.

 

Not sure if it's like the system in the Touareg but I had to first go through a setup procedure where you had to repeat a set of words/phrases so it could recognise your voice 

I have only had my new Fabia two weeks. It is a lovely vehicle BUT the information system is totally counter-intuitive and I am still struggling to master it even with the help of my 16 year old grandson who agrees it is basically three systems cobbled together . The Skoda salesman also has no idea how to make everything work.

So don’t blame yourself!

It's probably something simple Michael, have you actually managed to get a voice from your satnav?

Yes 

And I use ‘OK Laura’

 

 

Don’t laugh but is your volume up ok?

Had a partial result today. Asked Laura to calculate route and managed somehow to get turn by turn voice instructions but ONLY when I press the silver wheel on the RHS of steering wheel. Absolutely bizarre! I'll ask dealer but not hopeful.

Agreed 

Skoda have not got this version of Infotainment right

Mine is apparently Amundsen

Whst is yours?
