Voice control  
Introduction  
With voice control, you can have  
certain functions carried out by voice  
command.  
Does my vehicle have voice control?  
If there is a  
button on the multi-function steering wheel or the VOICE button is available in the Infotainment system or  
your vehicle understands the activation word, voice control is installed in the vehicle.  
Voice control is active and recognizes spoken words.  
Test voice control before a journey to get to know the function.  
Command-based voice control (standard)  
Depending on the language set in the Infotainment system, command-based voice control (standard) is available in the  
vehicle.  
Only grammatically correct voice commands are recognized by the voice control. Voice commands must follow a fixed syntax  
in order to be recognized correctly, e.g. “Navigate to [city, street name, house number]”. You can find further examples in the  
Infotainment system. The command-based voice control can be carried out in any available language.  
Supported languages  
The number of languages available in your country depends on the vehicle equipment.

spoken in the vehicle.  
Detection of the activation command can be deactivated in the settings.

In the following, “Hello Volkswagen” is used as the activation command, as an example.
