1. A method, implemented at least by a computing device, for operating an infotainment system integrated within a motor vehicle, comprising: entering, by a user, a search term in an input field of an input device; selecting, by an input completion unit and during the entering of the search term, a matching search term from a search history, wherein the matching search term matching a partial input of the entered search term; completing, by the input completion unit, the partial input in the input field based on the selected matching search term, thereby generating an input suggestion; selecting, by a search unit during the entering of the search term and based on the input suggestion, at least one database entry with a distinct object identifier from a database, wherein the database comprises a navigation database storing database entries such that each entry includes a name of a location as object identifier and metadata that describe the location, a media database storing data entries such that each entry includes a title as object identifier and metadata which describe a work of art having the title, and an address database storing data entries such that each entry includes a name as object identifier and metadata that describe a person or an institution identified by the name, the object identifier or the metadata at least partially matching the input suggestion, the input device, the input completion unit, and the search unit being each a component of the infotainment system, the matching search term or the selected at least one database entry is selected in dependence on an actual geographical location of the motor vehicle, the matching search term being never entered or used by the user in the search history and comprising at least one category derived from the metadata of the selected at least one database entry, and the matching search term and the selected at least one database entry are searched in dependence on an operating mode of the infotainment system, wherein only the navigation database is searched when the operating mode is navigation mode, only the media database is searched when the operating mode is media mode, and only the address database is searched when the operating mode is telephony mode; and displaying, by the search unit, the selected at least one database entry to the user in a selection list for selection by the user so that a discrepancy results between the input suggestion of the input field and the selected at least one data base entry displayed in the selection list, the selection list being different from the input field.

The method of claim 1 , wherein the matching search term and the selected at least one database entry include a part which phonetically matches the partial input.
