These can be operated in two different
modes:

Cabin mode – When the cabin mode
button is pressed, or when the light on the
button is illuminated, then the rear
occupants can control the audio playing
through the cabin speakers. Simply press
the voice button and give a command.

Operating tips
• After pressing the voice button, wait

for the end of the single listening beep
before giving the command.*
‘LISTENING’ will be displayed on the
instrument pack or on the rear
multimedia switchpack.

• Face forward and speak naturally, as

if you were talking to a passenger or
on the phone.

• Note the structure of the commands;

remember this rather than trying to
remember all the commands.

• If you forget any of the commands, try

saying ‘VOICE HELP’. The system will
then give you a list of help menus
available, from which you can choose
the appropriate one for the command
you need.

• The Voice system will repeat the

command back to you and display it
on the message centre or rear
multimedia switchpack. The
command will then be performed.

• If you hear a double beep when you

give a command, press the voice
button and try again.*

* A single beep denotes when the voice
system is listening for a command. A
double beep denotes when the system
has stopped listening, due to an error or
when an incorrect command has been
given.

Command confirmation

After a command has been given, the
system will give feedback of what it
understood. The verbal feedback can be
switched on or off by saying ‘VOICE
FEEDBACK ON’ or ‘VOICE FEEDBACK
OFF’. Verbal feedback for help
commands, directory listings, prompts,
error messages and nametags cannot be
switched off.

For the ‘PHONE DIAL’ commands, the
system will prompt for confirmation
before making the call. This confirmation
can be switched on or off by saying
‘PHONE CONFIRMATION ON’ or
‘PHONE CONFIRMATION OFF.’

For each voice command there is an
associated visual confirmation, which is
shown on the front instrument pack or on
the rear multimedia switchpack.

Voice system prompts

During some commands and for voice
training, you will be asked by the system
for a reply. In such cases you must press
and release the voice button then speak
after the beep. The system will remind you
twice so don’t worry about having to
respond to the system immediately.
