Voice activation system*
The concept
Possible commands
▷
The voice activation system can be used to
operate equipment by means of spoken
commands.
Having possible commands read aloud
The commands available in each case depend
on the menu item selected on the Control Dis‐
play.
▷
▷
The system encompasses special micro‐
phones on the outer edge of the headliner.
Have the available spoken instructions read
aloud using ›Voice commands‹.
Most menu items on the Control Display can
be voiced as commands. The system
prompts you to make your entries.
If, for example, "CD" is selected, the commands
for operating the CD/multimedia are read aloud.
▷
›...‹ Verbal instructions to use with the voice
activation system.
Executing functions using short
commands
Requirements
Some functions can be performed directly by
means of short commands, irrespective of
which menu item is currently selected,
e.g., ›Map‹.
Set the language via the iDrive. The selected
language also applies to the voice activation
system.
List of short voice activation commands, refer to
page 257.
Set the iDrive language, refer to page 79.
