In US, voice command only available on cars with navigation system.

If you have voice command you should have an appropriate button on your steering wheel or console. When you press it, you'll hear a beep which is your prompt to speak a command. No button and/or no beep = no voice command.

On cars without NAV you still have voice command but only for the Bluetooth Phone... if you dont have Bluetooth then I'm afraid you have no Voice command.

Or look for the split button behind the iDrive knob. Also as someone said when you click the voice button you should hear a beep and also the Voice Input icon on the screen.

"CD" to start the in dash CD, or "CD1" for disc 1 in a 6 disc change... or "dial number" if you have bluetooth to bring up the dial number screen.

If you look in the FAQ's I think you'll find a voice commands listing.
