Voice control

Introduction

With voice control, you can have

certain functions carried out by voice

command.

Types of voice control

Depending on which language has been set in the Infotainment system, one of the following voice controls will be available in

the vehicle:

Command-based voice control (standard).

Enhanced voice control (ofﬂine or online).

Does my vehicle have voice control?

If there is a Talk 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.

In black with blue background: Voice control is active and recognizes spoken words.

Test voice control before a journey to get to know the function.

Differences in the voice controls

Command-based voice control (standard)

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.

Enhanced voice control (oﬄine or online)

Speech commands can be freely worded in common speech. For example, in response to the question “How long is left to

drive?”, the system gives the remaining time until arrival at the destination. Suggestions for voice commands depend on the

set language and can be found in the Infotainment system.

Enhanced voice control works both online and ofﬂine. By evaluating voice commands, online mode offers improved POIs,

media and online radio station search functionality. Additionally, messages can be dictated. For online mode, you need a VW

Car-Net contract valid for the vehicle.

If enhanced voice control is available in your language, it is used to activate voice control.

Supported languages

The number of languages available in your country depends on the vehicle equipment.

Start voice control by saying the activation word available in your country ⇒ Activation word.

Starting and ending voice control

Voice commands

Voice control only recognizes voice commands in the language selected in the infotainment system.

Observe the following tips for successful voice commands:

Speak clearly and at normal volume. Speak a little louder at higher speeds.

Avoid excessive emphasis and strong accents.

Do not leave long pauses in speech.

Avoid external and background noise.

Do not direct the air ﬂow from the vents towards the microphone or headliner.
