Principle

various items of equipment on your car without
having to take your hands off the steering

can be selected by means of short commands.
It is not necessary to use the controller to select
them.
The voice input system translates your com-
mands into control signals for the system in

announcements or questions.
The voice input system includes a special
microphone positioned near the interior mirror,
