Voice command system
The concept
The voice command system allows you to con-
trol operation of various vehicle systems with-
out ever removing your hands from the steering
wheel. The system operates on the basis of
voice commands that you will learn easily after
using them a few times. In many cases, the
voice command system assists you with
announcements or questions while you are
making your entries.
The voice command system transforms your
oral commands and dialog answers into control
signals for the selected systems.
Please take the time to acquaint yourself
with how a particular system operates
before proceeding to control it using the voice
command system.<
Note
Use iDrive to set the language that will be used
for the voice command system in order to be
able to identify the commands to be spoken.
Setting the language of iDrive, refer to page84.
Symbols used
{...} Verbal instructions to use with the voice
command system.
{{...}} Identifies the answers generated by the
voice command system.

ing or any current error messages.
Voice commands
Voice command system activation
Briefly press the button on the steering
wheel.
An acoustic signal and the display "SVS active"
on the Info Display, refer to page24, indicate
that the system is ready for operation. The sys-
tem automatically starts in the main menu.
From here, you can call up all the equipment
that can be operated.
Canceling voice command
Briefly press the button on the steering
wheel
or
In dialogs in which any text can be spoken, e.g.
names, notes, canceling is only possible using
the button.
The system automatically switches over
to its telephone mode if you receive a call
during voice input. "SVS active" appears on the
Info Display, refer to page24.<
Voice commands
The voice command system operates on the
basis of specific, predefined commands; these
commands should be spoken precisely as indi-
cated. You can have the possible commands
read back at any stage. To do so, say the com-
mand {Options}.
In addition to the commands described, there
are often other commands that run the same
function. Instead of {Options}, you can, for
example, also say {What now}. In addition,
*
These sections contain information on
using the voice command system.
{Cancel}.

24 numerous options are often available, such as
{Scale 100 miles} instead of {Scale}.
Short commands
In the {Main menu} level, you can run certain
functions directly with brief commands, refer to
page222, without having to open an equipment
level first.
For example, if you want to dial a phone num-
ber, you do not have to say
instead, you can just say
Representation in Owner's Manual
Special commands are available for specific
systems. In this Owner's Manual you will find
these commands in the sections describing the
individual systems.
Displays on Info Display
The Info Display shows you what the voice
command system has understood in line 2,
while also indicating which voice command or
question is currently active in line1.
In addition, any error messages are also dis-
played.

Volume adjustment
You can adjust the volume for the instructions
from the voice command system:
Turn the knob during an instruction/announce-
ment to select the desired volume.
Instructions/announcements from the voice
command system will continue at this volume
level, even if the other audio sources are set to
minimum volume.
The volume setting is stored for the remote
control currently in use.
Notes
Do not use the voice command system to
make emergency calls. Your voice and
habitual tone could be affected by stressful sit-
uations, as a result of which the process of
establishing the telephone connection could be
unnecessarily delayed. Instead, use the emer-
gency call button near the interior rearview mir-
ror, refer to page178.<
Environmental conditions
The voice command system uses a special
hands-free microphone located in the front of
your vehicle's headliner. Although the system is
designed to filter out ambient noise, you can
help ensure that your commands will be under-
stood by observing the following instructions:
>Speak smoothly and clearly, at a normal vol-
ume. Avoid excessive emphasis and
pauses.
>Do not speak while the voice command sys-
tem is itself speaking.>Keep the doors, windows and glass sunroof
closed to prevent interference from ambi-
ent noise.
>Avoid other sources of noise in the vehicle
while speaking, and ask other vehicle occu-
pants to refrain from talking while you are
using the system.
>The hands-free microphone is aimed
toward the driver. This means that the sys-
tem might not be able to register the voices
of other vehicle occupants properly.
The notepad
Recording a note
You can store roughly ten minutes of spoken
text, either as a single entry or as multiple
entries of any desired length.
To stop recording:
Maintain pressure on the button for several
seconds.
When recording a note, the voice com-
mand system does not hear the com-
mand {Cancel} or {Exit}. The text checking
function for command words is deactivated in
this case so that you can speak any desired text
for your notes. This feature saves you from hav-
ing to concentrate on avoiding any command
words.<
Listening to a notepad entry
To listen to recorded notepad entries:
{Record note}.
1.{Read out}.
Approximately the first 3 seconds of
the first note are read aloud.
2.After the request {{Record note, read
out note, delete note.}} select the
desired function.
>To listen to the entire note:
{Read out}.
>To listen to the next note: {Next}.
>To listen to the note again:
{Back} or {Repeat}.
