Functions inside the vehicle

In some countries, it is against the law for the driver to use a hand-held mobile phone while he is driving. It is however permissible to make a call in hands-free mode.

When a call is accepted using the transmit/receive button on the MFL (multi-function steering wheel), the telephone switches to hands-free mode. The call is then conducted with full duplex transmission (simultaneous speaking and hearing) via the hands-free microphone and the loudspeakers in the vehicle.

The voice recognition system (SVS) integrated in the TCU is used to operate the mobile phone with voice commands. The following inputs are possible using voice commands:

• Store name and phone number in telephone directory
• Call up and dial name from telephone directory
