Voice control for cellular phones
(Only certain markets.)
Call a contact in the phone book, have a text message read aloud or dictate short messages using voice commands to a Bluetoothconnected phone.
To access a contact in the phone book, the voice command must contain the contact information entered in the phone book. If a contact, e.g. Robin Smith, has several phone numbers listed in the phone book, a number category such as home or cellular can also be specified, i.e. "Call Robin Smith cellular".
Tap
and say one of the following commands:
- "Call [contact]" - calls the selected contact from the phone book.
- "Call [phone number]" - calls a phone number.
- "Recent calls" - displays the list of recent calls.
- "Read message" - reads a text message aloud. If there are several messages, select the message to read aloud.
- "Message to [Contact]" – the user is prompted to dictate a short message. The message will then be read aloud and the user can choose to send or re-dictate the message. The vehicle must be connected to the Internet to access this function.
Not all system languages support voice control. If a language supports voice control, it is marked with a
symbol in the list of available system languages. Read more about where the information is found in the section on voice control settings.
