Operation by voice control*
The concept
You can operate your portable phone with-
out having to remove your hands from the
steering wheel. The system operates on
the basis of voice commands that you learn
easily after using them a few times. In addi-
tion, you are also supported by instructions
or questions.
Symbols usedVoice commands

1.Briefly press the button on the steer-
ing wheel.

readiness

mands possible in each case:

Briefly press the button on the steering
wheel
or
In dialogs where text of any kind can be
spoken, e.g. a name, canceling is only pos-
sible using the button. Voice control dia-
log is automatically interrupted when an
incoming call is received.
Voice commands
In addition to the commands described in
this Owner's Manual, alternative com-
mands are often possible for the same
functions, e.g.:
Digits from zero to nine are understood.
You can say each digit individually or group
them into a sequence of three to five digits
to speed up the process.
{...} Identifies voice commands.
{{...}} Identifies instructions generated
by the system.

until the connection has been established.
You will then be able to provide a detailed
description of the situation.

call is started automatically immediately
after a severe accident. The automatic
