The voice control system can usually be operated through the method “ say
what you see ” .
For example, the function button Dial number can be selected with the voice
command “ Dial number ”.
After switching on the voice control, the function buttons that can be selected
with a voice command are highlighted in green.
During voice control operation, the following symbols appear in the device
