Volvo' optional navigation system has
a separate user's guide containing that
system's specific voice commands.
Voice control offers convenience and enables
the driver to keep his/her hands on the steer-
ing wheel and concentrate on driving.

for operating the vehicle safely and adher-
ing to all applicable traffic regulations.
Input to the system is in dialog form: com-

the system. The voice control system uses
the same microphone as the Bluetooth
hands-free system, see Bluetooth
free system – overview (p. 62) and system
responses come via the infotainment sys-
tem's speakers.
