Voice command system
The concept
The voice command system allows you to con-
trol operation of various vehicle systems with-

can be spoken as commands. It is not neces-

The voice command system transforms your
oral commands into control signals for the
selected systems and provides support in the
form of instructions or questions.
The voice command system uses a special
microphone located in the area of the interior
rearview mirror, refer to page 14.
Precondition

spoken commands can be identified. Selecting
