Voice control for cellular phones

Call a contact in the phone book, have a text message read aloud or dictate short messages using voice commands to a Bluetooth-connected phone.1

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. Robyn 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 RobynSmithcellular".

Tap P5–1507–Voice control button and say one of the following commands:
  • "Call [contact]" - call the selected contact from the phone book.
  • "Call[phone number]" - call a phone number.
  • "Recent calls" - display the list of recent calls.
  • "Read message" - read a text message aloud. If there are several messages, select the message to read aloud.
  • "Message to [contact]" – the user is prompted to speak a short message. The message will then be read aloud and the user can choose to send2 or re-dictate the message. The vehicle must be connected to the Internet to access this function.

 Note

Not all system languages support voice control. If a language supports voice control, it is marked with a P5–1507–Voice control button symbol in the list of available system languages. Read more about where the information is found in the section on voice control settings.
