Voice Control
Voice control 17
allows you to control func-
tions in the vehicle, e.g. the climate control system, radio or a Bluetooth-connectedphone, using spoken commands. In vehicles equipped with Sensus Navigation *, the navi-
gation system can also be controlled using voice commands.
What is voice control?Voice control is a driver support function that can simplify the use of various commands inyour vehicle. It works in general like a regularapplication in which you input information in aset order in order to perform a task, butinstead of typing on a keypad, you use voicecommands. It can therefore be a good idea tofamiliarize yourself with how, and in whatorder, a voice command should be spoken toget the desired result. You can control certain infotainment and cli- mate control functions through the voice con-trol system by using voice commands. Thesystem can respond verbally and by displayinginformation in the instrument panel.
WARNING
The driver is always responsible for ensur- ing that the vehicle is operated in a safemanner and that all applicable traffic regu-lations are followed.

Starting voice control 18Voice commands are given through a "dialog" with thevoice control system. Pressthe button for voice control
on the right-side steering
wheel keypad to activate the system and initiate a voice
command dialog. When you press the button,a beep will sound and the voice control sym-bol will appear in the instrument panel. This shows that the system has begun listen- ing and you can now begin speaking com-mands. As soon as you start speaking, thesystem will be trained to recognize and under-stand your voice. This takes several secondsand is done automatically, which means thatyou don't need to manually initiate any voicetraining.

These may include:
Wait until after the tone, and then speak in your normal voice at a normal speed.
Do not speak while the system is respond-ing (the system is unable to process com-mands during this time).
Avoid background noises in the passengercompartment by keeping doors, windows and the panoramic roof
* closed.
NOTE
Not all system languages support voice control. If a language supports voice con- trol, it is marked with a
symbol in the
list of available system languages. Read more about where the information is foundin the section on voice control settings.
Generally, the system will listen for a basic command that is then followed by moredetailed commands specifying what you wantthe system to do. To change the audio volume of the system, turn the volume knob while the voice is speak-ing. It is possible to use other buttons whilevoice commands are being given. However,because other audio is silenced during dialogwith the system, it is not possible to perform any functions connected to audio using thebuttons.
Canceling voice controlTo cancel voice control, do one of the follow-ing:
Briefly press
and say "Cancel".
Press and hold the steering wheel key- pad's voice command button
until
two audible signals are given. This cancels voice control even when the system isspeaking.
Voice control will also be canceled if you donot respond during a dialog. The system willfirst ask three times for a response and if theresponse is still not given, voice control will beautomatically canceled. To speed up communication and skip prompts from the system, press the voice control but- ton
on the steering wheel keypad. This
will interrupt the system's response and you can say the next command.
Voice command examples
1. Tap . 2.
Say "
Call [First name] [Last name]
[number category]", e.g. "Call Robyn
Smith cellular".
> The system will call the selected con- tact from the phone book. If the contact has several phone numbers (e.g. home,cell, work), the right category must alsobe given.
Commands/phrasesThe following commands can usually be usedin any situation:
"
Repeat" - repeats the most recent voice
command in the current dialog.
"
Cancel" - cancels the dialog. 19
"
Help" - initiates a help dialog. The sys-
tem responds with commands that can be used in the current situation, an instruc-tion or an example.
Commands for specific functions, such as phone and audio, are described in the sections related to that function.
19 Note that this only cancels the dialog when the system is not speaking. To do this, press and hold until you hear two beeps.

Active high beam
Active high beams is a function that uses camera sensors in the upper edge of thewindshield to detect the headlights ofapproaching vehicles or the taillights of thevehicle directly ahead. When either of theseis detected, the vehicle's headlights will auto-matically switch from high beams to lowbeams.
Active high beams is indicated by the symbol.
This function can be used in dark conditions when the vehicle's speed is approx. 20 km/h(approx. 12 mph) or higher. The function canalso detect street lighting. When the camerasensor no longer detects an approaching vehi-cle or a vehicle ahead, the headlights willreturn to high beams after a second or two.
Activating active high beamsActive high beams can be activated and deac-tivated by turning the lighting ring on the left- side steering wheel lever to position
.
The lighting ring will then return to
.
When active high beams are activated, a white
symbol will be displayed in the instru-
ment panel. When high beams are on, the symbol will be blue. If active high beams are deactivated when the high beams are on, the headlights will auto-matically switch to low beams.
Limitations for active high beamsThe camera sensor on which the function isbased has limitations.
If this symbol and the message
Active High Beam Temporarily
unavailable is displayed in the
instrument panel, switching
between high and low beams must be done manually. The
symbol will go out when
the message is displayed.
The same applies if this symbol along with the message
Windscreen sensor Sensor
blocked, see Owner's manual is
displayed.
Active high beams may be temporarily unavail- able in certain situations, e.g. heavy fog or rain. When active high beams become availa-ble again, or the windshield sensors are nolonger blocked, the message will disappear and the
symbol will be displayed.
WARNING
Automatic high beam is an aid in using the best possible light based on prevailing con-ditions. The driver is always responsible for man- ually switching between high and lowbeam when traffic situations or weatherconditions require this.
