Certain isolated English words may not be provided with a voice response option. If a

Searching for a word
There are numerous settings to define a search in the dictionary. The settings essentially
influence the result and display of the dictionary search. Therefore, please read the chapter
Dictionary configuration. The basic procedure for searching in the dictionary is as follows
– assuming that the incremental suggestions list is not active:
Type in the whole word or the beginning of a word and then press enter. There are three
possible search results:
- Exactly one entry is found. The entry is displayed.
- More than one entry is found. A list of matches is shown from which you can select the
required entry for display.
- No matching entries were found. The entry next to the search word alphabetically ap-
pears on display or the device searches for spelling variants of the given search word-
this depends on the setting in Dictionary configuration.


 NOTE:
For highest comfort the incremental suggestions list is active by default.
It may be the case that a keyword occurs more than once in a list of hits or that a translation
is not available for a keyword in a particular language. This is unavoidable due to the com-
plex data structures and in no way indicates a fault with the device.
Please note the following when entering a search string:
- Diacritical characters (such as e.g. ü, ö, ä, é etc.) are normalised when searching: ä = a,
ü = u etc.
- Spaces in search strings should not be specified (e.g. in "parking light“).
- Special characters (e.g. the hyphen in "know-how“) need not be specified ("knowhow“ is
sufficient).
