Missing voice command button?
Hi All-
i just purchased a 2016 LR4 HSE and read through the manual and my steering wheel has a “mute audio” button on the steering wheel where it seems a “listen for voice commands” button should be. Anyone else ever seen this? I was able to pair my iPhone and can push the button on my phone for Siri and get the voice system to respond…..but the entire point of a voice command system is to be able to keep both hands on the wheel while making a call….LOL. What am I missing here? First pic is my LR4 second pic is a stock photo from LR.

@Carrie V , Welcome to the forum.
The voice command system fitted to Land Rovers and Jaguars is to manage the features of the vehicle, not the phone.
This being said, there is a vehicle feature to manage the phone which includes, dial phone numbers, which I use often.
Or have I misread your ask?
Are you certain that your vehicle is fitted with voice command?
Cheers!

I found my answer late last night. Half way through making the 2016 LR4 they started making what people on these boards refer to as a 2016 and a 1/2 (2016.5) LR4. In the later half of the year they swapped out the voice command button on the steering wheel for the mute audio button. No idea why. There is still a voice control in the car, but the only way for me to access the system to get it to listen to a command (e.g. “navigation- McDonalds”) is through Siri once my phone is connected via Bluetooth. Sooooo odd! My original manual apparently had a piece of paper stapled into it that explained this change, but that slip of paper was no longer there when I got the car yesterday so I was going off the manual, which clearly shows a voice command button.
