Volvo XC90: Displays and voice control / Voice control for cellular phones
(Certain markets only.)
Call a contact in the phone book, have a text message read aloud or dictate
short messages using voice commands to a Bluetoothconnected phone.
To access a contact in the phone book, the voice command must contain the contact
information entered in the phone book. If a contact, e.g. Robyn Smith, has
several phone numbers listed in the phone book, a number category such as home
or cellular can also be specified, i.e. "Call Robyn Smith cellular".
Tap
and say one of the following
commands:
- "Call [contact]" - call the selected contact from the phone book.
- "Call [phone number]" - call a phone number.
- "Recent calls" - display the list of recent calls.
- "Read message" - read a text message aloud. If there are several
messages, select the message to read aloud.
- "Message to [contact]" – the user is prompted to dictate a short
message. The message will then be read aloud and the user can choose to send
or re-dictate the message. The vehicle must be connected to the Internet to
access this function.
NOTE
