Start voice control
To give commands via the
voice control system, you
have a "dialogue" with the
system. Depress the steering
wheel button for voice recog-
nition to activate the sys-
tem and initiate a dialogue
using voice commands. After you have
pressed the button, a beep tone can be heard
and the voice control symbol is shown in the
driver display.
This shows that the system has started to lis-
ten and you can start to say the commands.
As soon as you start to talk, the system is
trained to recognise and understand your
voice. This takes several seconds and is done
automatically, which means that you do not
need to start any voice training manually.
Remember the following:
Speak after the tone with a normal voice
•
at a normal tempo.
Do not speak while the system is replying
•
(the system cannot understand com-
mands during this time).
DISPLAYS AND VOICE CONTROL
Avoid background noise in the passenger
•
compartment by having the doors, win-
dows and panoramic roof* closed.

In general, the system works by listening for a
basic command which is followed by more
detailed commands that specify what you
want the system to do.
To change the system audio volume, turn the
rotary volume knob when the voice speaks. It
is possible to use other buttons during voice
control. However, other sounds will be
silenced during dialogue with the system,
which means that it is not possible to execute
any functions linked with audio using the but-
tons.
* Option/accessory.
