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.

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.

Briefly press
and say "Cancel".
Press and hold the steering wheel key- pad's voice command button
until

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

tem responds with commands that can be used in the current situation, an instruc-tion or an example.
