Activating the system

Before any phone voice commands can be used, a Bluetooth®-enabled cell phone must be paired with the infotainment system. If a phone command is given, the system will inform you If there is no cell phone paired. See page 234 for information on pairing a cell phone.
Press the voice control button (1 in the illustration) to activate the system and initiate a command dialogue. The system will display commonly used commands on the screen when the button has been pressed.
While using the voice control system, keep the
following points in mind:
• When giving commands, speak at your
usual speed and in a normal tone of voice
after the tone
• The vehicle's doors, windows and moonroof
should be closed when using the voice
control system
• Avoid background noises in the cabin
when using the system
NOTE
If you are uncertain of the commands that
you can use, saying "help" will prompt the
system to provide a number of commands
that can be used in a specific situation.
Voice control commands can be cancelled
by:
• Saying "cancel"
• Not speaking
• Pressing and holding the voice control button
• Pressing EXIT or one of the mode buttons (RADIO, MEDIA, etc.).
