Voice activation system
Vehicle features and options
This chapter describes all standard, country-
specific and optional features offered with
the series. It also describes features that are
not necessarily available in your vehicle,
e. g., due to the selected options or country
versions. This also applies to safety-related
functions and systems. When using these
functions and systems, the applicable laws
and regulations must be observed.
Concept
Most functions displayed on the Control
Display can be operated by voice commands
via the voice activation system. The system
supports you with announcements during
input.
General information
– Functions that can only be used when
the vehicle is stationary can only be op-
erated via the voice activation system to
a limited extent.
– The system uses a special microphone
on the driver's side.
– ›...‹ in the Owner's Manual denotes ver-
bal instructions to use with the voice ac-
tivation system.
– Say the commands, numbers, and letters
smoothly and with normal volume, em-
phasis, and speed.
– Always say commands in the language
of the voice activation system.
Functional requirements
Via the Control Display, set a language that
is also supported by the voice activation
system so that the spoken commands can be
identified.
To set the language, refer to page
54 .
