Driver profiles  
Many of the settings made in the car can be  
adapted according to the driver's personal  
preferences and can be saved in one or more  
driver profiles.  
The personal settings are automatically saved  
in the active driver profile. Each key can be  
linked to a driver profile. When the linked key  
is used, the car is adapted to the settings of  
that specific driver profile.  
Subcategories  
Keyboard layout settings are an example of  
global settings. If driver profile X is used to  
add additional languages to the keyboard,  
these remain available for use even if driver  
profile Y is used. The keyboard layout settings  
are not saved to a specific driver profile - the  
settings are global.

If driver profile X was used to e.g. set centre  
display brightness, driver profile Y is not affec-

profile X - the brightness setting is a personal  
setting.

profiles?

Many of the settings defined in the car will be  
saved automatically in the active driver profile  
unless the profile is protected. In the car, the  
settings defined are either personal or global.

files.

Voice recognition  
WARNING  
Voice control16 allows you to control func-  
tions in the car, e.g. climate system, radio or  
a Bluetooth-connected phone with spoken  
commands. In cars equipped with Sensus  
Navigation*, the navigation system can also  
be controlled with voice recognition.  
The driver always holds overall responsibil-  
ity for driving the vehicle in a safe manner  
and complying with all applicable rules of  
the road.  
> A list of saved messages is shown.  
Messages with an arrow to the right  
can be maximised.  
2. Tap on a message to expand/minimise.  
> More information on the message is  
shown in the list and the image to the  
left in the app shows information about  
the message graphically.  
What is voice control?  
Voice control is an aid that can facilitate the  
use of different commands in your car. In prin-  
ciple, it works like a normal application in  
which you enter information in a fixed  
sequence in order to perform a task, but  
instead of typing on a keyboard you use voice  
commands. It may therefore be a good idea to  
learn how, and in what order, a voice com-  
mand should be spoken in order to achieve the  
desired result.  
Managing a saved message  
Some messages have a button for e.g. activat-  
ing/deactivating a function linked to the mes-  
sage.  
Press the button to perform the action.  
Saved messages in the top view are deleted  
automatically when the car is switched off.  
Voice control system microphone  
The voice control system allows you to control  
certain infotainment and climate functions  
using voice commands. The system can  
respond with speech and by showing informa-  
tion in the driver display.

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