iDrive Vehicle equipment All standard, country-specific and optional equipment that is offered in the model series is described in this chapter. Therefore, equipment is also described that is not available in a vehicle, e. g., because of the selected optional equip‐ ment or country variant. This also applies for safety-related functions and systems.
The concept The iDrive combines the functions of a multitude of switches. Thus, these functions can be oper‐ ated from a central location.
Using the iDrive during a trip To avoid becoming distracted and posing an unnecessary hazard to your vehicle's occu‐ pants and to other road users, never attempt to use the controls or enter information unless traf‐ fic and road conditions allow this.◀

Voice activation system At a glance
Voice activation system Vehicle equipment All standard, country-specific and optional equipment that is offered in the model series is described in this chapter. Therefore, equipment is also described that is not available in a vehicle, e. g., because of the selected optional equip‐ ment or country variant. This also applies for safety-related functions and systems.
The concept ▷ Most functions that are displayed on the
Control Display can be operated by spoken commands via the voice activation system. The system prompts you to make your en‐ tries.
▷ Functions that can only be used when the vehicle is stationary cannot be operated us‐ ing the voice activation system.
▷ The system uses a special microphone on
the driver's side.

This symbol in the instrument cluster indi‐ cates that the voice activation system is active. If no other commands are available, operate the function in this case via iDrive. Terminating the voice activation system
Briefly press the button on the steering wheel or ›Cancel‹.
Possible commands Most menu items on the Control Display can be voiced as commands. The available commands depend on which menu is currently displayed on the Control Dis‐ play. There are short commands for functions of the main menu. Some list entries, e.g. Phone book entries, can also be selected via the voice activation system. Speak these list entries exactly as they are dis‐ played in the respective list. Having possible commands read aloud You can have the available commands read out loud for you: ›Voice commands‹ For example, if the "Settings" menu is displayed, the commands for the settings are read out loud.

Notes on Emergency Requests Do not use the voice activation system to initiate an Emergency Request. In stressful situations, the voice and vocal pitch can change. This can unnecessarily delay the establishment of a tel‐ ephone connection. Instead, use the SOS button, refer to page 207, in the vicinity of the interior mirror.
Environmental conditions ▷ Say the commands, numbers, and letters smoothly and with normal volume, empha‐ sis, and speed.
▷ Always say commands in the language of
the voice activation system.
