Voice command system

The concept

The voice command system allows you to con-
trol operation of various vehicle systems with-
out ever removing your hands from the steering
wheel. The system operates on the basis of
voice commands that you will learn easily after
using them a few times. In many cases, the
voice command system assists you with
announcements or questions while you are
making your entries.
The voice command system transforms your
oral commands and dialog answers into control
signals for the selected systems.

Please take the time to acquaint yourself
with how a particular system operates

before proceeding to control it using the voice
command system.

Note

Voice commands

The voice command system operates on the
basis of specific, predefined commands; these
commands should be spoken precisely as indi-

are often other commands that run the same
