Operation via voice control
Introduction
The voice control system is activated by the “Push to talk (PTT) button”
⇒  Fig. 25  or ⇒ Fig. 26  . Thanks to the voice control you can use many telephone functions without
having to take your eyes off the road or your hands off the steering wheel.
Dialogue is the time during which the voice control system transmits mes-
sages and can receive spoken orders (commands).
If a call is received, then the dialogue is immediately interrupted.
You can use the HELP in any part of the menu. If you have any doubts or
cannot decide the Command to use, the system will provide you with the
available options.
You can CANCEL in any part of the menu. 
Basic functions when using voice control
Adjusting the volume
You can change the sound volume at any time with the radio button or with
the buttons on the multifunction control.
The volume transmitted by the speaker depends, among other aspects, on
the volume transmitted by the mobile. If the volume of the mobile is low, or
on silent, it is possible that no sound will be heard through the car speaker.
Adjust the volume of your Bluetooth device to the maximum.
Do not leave headphones connected to the Bluetooth device when you wish
to use the hands free system.
Complying with these requirements, if the speaker volume is very high, ad-
just it using the controls on the steering wheel or the volume control on the
radio.
Connecting voice control (Dialogue)
Briefly press the “PTT” button ⇒ Fig. 25  or ⇒ Fig. 26  on the steering
wheel multifunction control to start the dialogue at any moment. 

44Phone mode
If the system does not recognise your command, there is a first help option
which allows a new input. After the second failed attempt, the system re-
peats the second part of the assistance cue. After a third failure the system
will answer with “Operation cancelled” and the dialogue will be ended.
Disconnecting voice control (Dialogue)
Briefly press the “PTT” button ⇒ Fig. 25  or ⇒  Fig. 26  on the steering
wheel multifunction control to end the dialogue at any moment. If the sys-
tem is waiting for a command, you can end the dialogue with the “CANCEL”
command.
Interrupting an on-going message
By pressing the “PTT button” ⇒ Fig. 25  or ⇒ Fig. 26  during the mes-
sage, only the current message is ended and it is possible to give another
command. 
Proper use of the voice control
Note the following to ensure that you are properly understood:
● Speak in a normal tone and without pauses or exaggerated pronuncia-
tion.
● Avoid poor articulation of words.
● Keep the doors, windows and sun roof closed if possible to avoid back-
ground noises that might affect the system.
● Keep the air vents directed away from the microphone (located on the
interior light).
● At high speeds, you might need to speak louder to drown out back-
ground noises.
● Avoid other noises in the vehicle during a dialogue (e.g. other passen-
gers speaking in the vehicle).
● Avoid speaking when the system is saying a cue. ●
The hands-free microphone is directed towards the driver, therefore, on-
ly the driver should try to operate the system.
● To make a call when there is heavy background noise we recommend us-
ing the speech controlled telephone book instead of speaking individual
digits. This will help avoid mistakes when specifying telephone numbers. 
Voice control commands
Voice control is available in the following languages: Spanish, Mexican Spanish, German, English, US English, French, Canadian
French, Italian, Portuguese, Czech, Russian and Dutch.
The user can change the language in the instrument panel using the multi-
function steering wheel ⇒ Booklet Instruction Manual.
The languages available in each vehicle depend on the destination of the
vehicle.

effectDescriptionUsersConnect or disconnect already defined users, rename or de-
lete user profiles. When changing the user, the system may need to perform connection consultations in the mobile
phone and on the instrument panel display. The system
permits two Bluetooth devices to be connected and used
simultaneously, to perform different functions. In this
case, one device will be used as hands-free (connected to
the HFP profile) and the other as a media player (connec-
ted to the A2DP profile).
Add userSelect Add user so that the device starts to search for Blue-
tooth compatible mobile phones. If you try to connect an
"unknown" mobile phone, the system will check whether
you have already created four user profiles. As it is only
possible to store up to a maximum of four user profiles, it
may be necessary to delete a profile.
VisibilityBluetooth system “visibility” must be enabled in order to
pair a mobile phone. When the device is “visible”, a sym-
bol is displayed on the main screen of the telephone

quality stereophonic sound signal. Consult your mobile phone manufactur-
er.
