The instrument panel displays information such as speed, an incoming phone call or the trackthat is currently playing. It is controlled using bothsteering wheel keypads.
Center display
Many of the vehicle's main functions are con- trolled from the center display, a touchscreen thatreacts to taps or other gestures. The number ofphysical buttons is thereby minimized.

dealt with by the driver or the front seat passen- ger.
Voice control system
The voice control system ena- bles the driver to operate cer-tain vehicle functions withoutremoving his/her hands fromthe steering wheel and itunderstands natural speech.Use voice commands to e.g.,
play a track on the infotainment system, make aphone call, raise the passenger compartmenttemperature or to read a text message.
For additional information about all of the func- tions/system, see the respective articles in theon-board owner's manual or the printed supple-ment.

Safety during pregnancy The seat belt should always be worn during pregnancy. However, it is crucial that it be worncorrectly.
The diagonal section should wrap over the shoul- der then be routed between the breasts and tothe side of the belly. The lap section should layflat over the thighs and as low as possible underthe belly. It must never be allowed to ride upward.Remove all slack from the belt and ensure that itfits close to the body without any twists. As a pregnancy progresses, pregnant drivers should adjust their seats and steering wheel suchthat they can easily maintain control of the vehi-cle as they drive (which means they must be ableto easily operate the foot pedals and steeringwheel). Within this context, they should strive toposition the seat with as large a distance as pos-sible between their belly and the steering wheel.
