Driver profiles

Many of the vehicle's settings can be cus-
tomized to the driver's personal preferences
and saved in one or more driver profiles.

These personal settings are automatically
saved in the active driver profile. Each key can
be linked to one driver profile. When the linked
key is used, the vehicle is customized to the
specific settings of that driver profile.

Which settings are saved in driver
profiles?

Many of the settings made in the vehicle will
be automatically stored in the active driver
profile if the profile is not protected. The vehi-
cle has settings that can be made either per-
sonal or global. The personal settings are
saved in driver profiles.

Settings that can be saved in a driver profile
include, among other things, screens, mirrors,
front seats, navigation

*

, audio and media sys-

tem, language and voice control.

Some settings are global settings. These set-
tings can be changed but are not saved to a
specific driver profile. Changes to global set-
tings affect all profiles.

Global settings

Global settings do not change when driver
profiles are changed. They remain the same
regardless of which driver profile is currently
active.

Keyboard layout is an example of a global set-
ting. If driver profile X is used to add additional
keyboard languages, these languages will also
be available for driver profile Y. The settings
for keyboard layout are not saved to a specific
driver profile - the settings are global.

Personal settings

If driver profile X has been used to e.g., set the
brightness for the center display, driver profile
Y will not be affected by this setting. It will
only be saved to driver profile X because
brightness setting is a personal setting.

profile

A remote key can be linked to a driver profile.
This driver profile and all of its settings will
then automatically be selected every time the
vehicle is used with that particular remote
key.

The first time the remote key is used, it is not
linked to any specific driver profile. The 

Guest

profile is automatically activated when the
ignition is switched on.

A driver profile can also be selected manually
without linking it to any key. When the vehicle
is unlocked, the last active driver profile will be
activated. If the key has ever been linked to a
driver profile, it is not necessary to manually
select a driver profile when using that particu-
lar key.

Voice Control

Voice control

16

 allows you to control func-

tions in the vehicle, e.g. the climate control
system, radio or a Bluetooth-connected
phone, using spoken commands. In vehicles
equipped with Sensus Navigation

*

, the navi-

gation system can also be controlled using
voice commands.

What is voice control?

Voice control is a driver support function that
can simplify the use of various commands in
your vehicle. It works in general like a regular
application in which you input information in a
set order in order to perform a task, but
instead of typing on a keypad, you use voice
commands. It can therefore be a good idea to
familiarize yourself with how, and in what
order, a voice command should be spoken to
get the desired result.

You can control certain infotainment and cli-
mate control functions through the voice con-
trol system by using voice commands. The
system can respond verbally and by displaying
information in the instrument panel.

WARNING

The driver is always responsible for ensur-

ing that the vehicle is operated in a safe

manner and that all applicable traffic regu-

lations are followed.

Voice control microphone

System updates

The voice control system is continuously
improved. It is recommended to always have
the latest version installed.

Voice commands are given
through a "dialog" with the
voice control system. Press
the button for voice control

 on the right-side steering

wheel keypad to activate the
system and initiate a voice

command dialog. When you press the button,
a beep will sound and the voice control sym-
bol will appear in the instrument panel.

This shows that the system has begun listen-
ing and you can now begin speaking com-
mands. As soon as you start speaking, the
system will be trained to recognize and under-
stand your voice. This takes several seconds
and is done automatically, which means that
you don't need to manually initiate any voice
training.

These may include:

Wait until after the tone, and then speak in
your normal voice at a normal speed.

Do not speak while the system is respond-
ing (the system is unable to process com-
mands during this time).

Avoid background noises in the passenger
compartment by keeping doors, windows
and the panoramic roof

*

 closed.

NOTE

Not all system languages support voice
control. If a language supports voice con-
trol, 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.

Generally, the system will listen for a basic
command that is then followed by more
detailed commands specifying what you want
the system to do.

To change the audio volume of the system,
turn the volume knob while the voice is speak-
ing. It is possible to use other buttons while
voice commands are being given. However,
because other audio is silenced during dialog
with the system, it is not possible to perform
any functions connected to audio using the
buttons.

Press and hold the steering wheel key-
pad's voice command button 

 until

two audible signals are given. This cancels

first ask three times for a response and if the
response is still not given, voice control will be
automatically canceled.

To speed up communication and skip prompts
from the system, press the voice control but-

Numbers

Number commands can be given in different
ways depending on the function to be con-
trolled:

Phone numbers and zip codes

 should be

given by stating each number individually,

e.g. "zero, three, one, two, two, four, four,
three" (03122443).

Addresses

 can be given by stating each

number individually or in a group, e.g.
"two, two" or "twenty-two" (22). For Eng-
lish and Dutch language settings, groups
of numbers can also be said in sequence,
e.g. "twenty-two, twenty-two" (22 22).
For English, double or triple digits can also
be used, e.g. "double zero" (00). Numbers
in the range 0-2300 can be used.

Frequencies

 can be given as "ninety-eight

point eight" (98.8), "one hundred four
point two" or "hundred and four point
two" (104.2).

adjusted.

With repeat mode on, the system will repeat

vate repeat mode:
