Controlling a telephone with voice recognition

Call a contact, have messages read aloud or dictate brief messages with voice control commands to a Bluetooth connected telephone.1

To specify a contact in the phone book, the voice recognition command must include contact information that is entered in the phone book. If a contact, e.g. Robyn Smith, has several phone numbers then the number category can also be stated, e.g. Home or Mobile: "Call RobinSmithMobile".

Press P5–1507–Voice control button and say one of the following commands:
  • "Call [contact]" - dials the selected contact from the phone book.
  • "Call[phone number]" - dials the phone number.
  • "Recent calls" - displays the call list.
  • "Read message" - message is read out. If there are several messages - select which message should be read out.
  • "Message to [contact]" - the user is prompted to speak a short message. The message is then repeated aloud and the user can choose to send2 or revise the message. For this function to work, the car must be connected to the Internet.

 Note

Not all system languages support voice recognition. The ones that do are highlighted with the P5–1507–Voice control button symbol in the list of available system languages. Read more about where the information can be found in the section on settings for voice recognition.
