General information on voice control
Various driver information system functions can be called up and operated via the voice control system (VCS [SBS]). The system can be controlled by voice by spelling out or entering complete words. The function is divided into the following processes:
- Function sequence for switching on VCS [SBS]
- Function sequence for entering voice commands
- Function sequence for voice output through the voice control system
- Function sequence for switching off VCS [SBS]

Operating instructions
Voice control is switched on and off using the right VCS [SBS] switch (S93/2) on the steering column tube module (N80).

Function sequence for switching on VCS [SBS]
The control signal from the VCS [SBS] switch is forwarded to the "audio equipment" via the following components:
- Direct line
- Steering column tube module
- Interior CAN

The audio equipment transmits the actuation message via the MOST (Media Oriented System Transport) to the voice control system control unit (A35/11), which activates the integrated voice recognition of the VCS [SBS]. At the same time the handsfree system microphone group (A67b1) is activated and the radio component of the "audio equipment" is muted.

Function sequence for entering voice commands
The voice commands are forwarded as follows for a control dialogue for audio functions:
- Handsfree system microphone group
- Direct line
- Voice control system control unit
- MOST
- "Audio unit"

The voice commands are forwarded as follows for a control dialogue for telephone function, with code (386) Mobile phone:
- Handsfree system microphone group
- Direct line
- Voice control system control unit
- MOST
- Universal Portable Cell Phone Interface (UPCI [UHI]) control unit (N123/1)
- MOST
- "Audio unit"

Function sequence for voice output through the voice control system
Voice output on the voice control system on vehicles with code (810) Sound system is sent from the "audio equipment" over MOST to the sound system amplifier (N40/3). From there, the voice output is transmitted via direct lines to the following speakers:
- Left front door speaker (H4/1)
- Right front door speaker (H4/2)
- Left rear door speaker (H4/5)
- Right rear door speaker (H4/6)
- Left front door speaker, mirror triangle (H4/23)

- Left front door speaker
- Right front door speaker
- Left rear door speaker
- Right rear door speaker
- Left front door speaker, mirror triangle
- Right front door speaker, mirror triangle
