the vehicle once, you can operate the mobile phone via the radio, the buttons on the steer‐
ing wheel, and via voice activation.

the mobile phone provider or service provider.

control of the vehicle. There is risk of an acci‐
dent. Only use the systems or devices when the
traffic situation allows. If necessary stop and
use the systems and devices while the vehicle is
stationary. ◀
