Vehicle equipment
In this chapter, all production, country, and
optional equipment that is offered in the model
range is described. For this reason, descrip-
tions will be given of some equipment that may
not be available in a vehi
cle, for example due to
the special options or national-market version
selected. This also app lies to safety related
functions and systems.
The concept
> The voice activation system can be used
to control most functions by spoken
commands.
> Functions that can only used when the vehi-
cle is stopped cannot be operated using the
voice activation system.
> The system includes a special microphone
on the driver's side.
> In the Owner's Manual, {...} indicates com-
mands for the voice activation system.
> In the Owner's Manual, {{...}} indicates the
answers from the voice activation system.
Prerequisite
On the Control Display, set a language that is
also supported by the vo ice activation system
to permit identification of the commands to be
spoken.
Setting the langua ge, refer to page87.
Saying commands
Activating voice activation system
1.Press the button on the steering wheel.
2. Wait for the acoustic signal.
3. Say the command.
This symbol on the Control Display and an
acoustic signal notify yo u that the voice activa-
tion system is activated.
If no additional commands are possible,
continue by operating the function via iDrive.
Finishing voice input
Press the button on the steering wheel
or
Possible commands
Most menu items on the Control Display can be

> The volume is stored for the remote control
currently in use.
Notes on Emergency
Requests
Do not use the voice activation system to ini-
tiate an Emergency Request. In stressful situa-
tions, the voice and vocal pitch can change.
This can unnecessarily delay the establishment
of a telephone connection.
Instead, use the SOS button, refer to page 250,
in the vicinity of the interior rearview mirror.
Ambient conditions

guage of the voice activation system.
> When selecting a radio station, use the
standard pronunciation of the station name:
{Station … } e.g. National Public Radio
> Keep the doors, windows, glass roof/pan-
oramic glass roof closed to prevent interfer-
ence from ambient noise.
> Avoid ambient noise in the vehicle while

With the ignition at radio readiness or beyond,
you can open and close the windows and the
convertible top when a remote control is
located inside the vehicle.
Unlocking the trunk lid separately
Press the button on the ou
tside of the trunk lid.
This corresponds to pressing the button. If the vehicle detects that a remote con-
trol has been accident ally left inside the
locked vehicle after the trunk lid is closed, the
lid will reopen. The haza rd warning flashers
flash and a signal sounds. <
Switching on radio readiness
Pressing the Start/Stop button switches on
radio readiness.
Do not depress the brake or the clutch; other-
wise, the engine will start immediately.
Starting the engine
The engine can be started or the ignition can be
switched on when a remote control is inside the
vehicle. It is not necessa ry to insert a remote
control into the ignition lock, refer to page 61.
Switching off the engine in cars with
automatic transmission
The engine can only be switched off when the
selector lever is in po sition P, refer to page 63.
To switch the engine off when the selector lever
is in position N, the remote control must be in
the ignition lock.
Malfunctions
Local radio waves can in terfere with the func-
tion of Comfort Access, for example when a
mobile phone is in the immediate vicinity of the
remote control or by when a mobile phone is
being charged in the vehicle. If this happens, open and close the vehicle via
the buttons on the remote control or using the
integrated key. To star
t the engine afterward,
insert the remote control into the ignition lock.
Warning lamps
The warning lamp in the instrument
cluster lights up when you attempt to
start the engine: the engine cannot
be started. The remote co ntrol is not inside the
vehicle or is malfunctio ning. Take the remote
control with you inside the vehicle or have it
checked. If necessary, insert another remote
control into the ignition lock.
The warning lamp in the instrument
cluster lights up wh ile the engine is
running: the remote control is no
longer inside the vehicle. After the engine is
switched off, the engine can only be restarted
within approx. 10 seconds.
The indicator lamp in the instrument
cluster comes on and a message
appears on the Control Display:

also refer to page 34.
As of radio readiness, refer to page 61:
To conserve battery power, if possible
operate the convertible top only while the
engine is running.

and remove all debris from the windshield
frame; otherwise, the closing of the top may be
hampered. <
1 Push button: close the convertible top
2 Push button: open convertible top
3 LEDs
The side windows move down when the
convertible top is opened. <
If it is no longer possible to operate the cover
after it has been actuated several times in
immediate succession or after the cover has
remained in an interm ediate position for a
longer period, then the convertible top drive has
overheated. If possible, close the convertible top and allow
the drive unit to cool for a few minutes.
Operating while driving
You can open or close the convertible top while
driving, as long as the car is not moving faster
than approx. 25 mph/40 km/h.
If you accelerate to ov
er 30 mph/50 km/h while
the convertible top is moving, the procedure is
interrupted.
While operating the convertible top, pay
close attention to the surrounding traffic;
otherwise, an accident may happen. Try to
avoid operating the convertible top while
reversing the vehicle since the rear view is very
limited during the convertible top's movement.
Do not operate the convertible top while driving
in windy conditions. Do not drive faster than
30 mph/50 km/h; otherwise, damage to the
vehicle can occur. <
LEDs
>While the convertible top is being operated,
the left LED lights up green. It goes out as
soon as the top is fully opened or closed.
In the following situations, a message appears
on the Control Display or an acoustic signal
sounds in addition to the LED lighting up:
> If the right-hand LED flashes red when you
release the button, th e opening or closing
action has not yet finished.
> If the right-hand LED lights up red when the
button is pressed, the trunk partition is
raised, the trunk lid is not closed or there is a
malfunction. The convertible top cannot be
moved.
Interruption
The automatic sequence of movements is
interrupted if the button for the convertible top
operation is released. The sequence can be
continued in the desired direction by pushing or
pulling the buttons.
