Command to end tel call in linguatronic

I've been trying to master Linguatronic in a small way. The one thing that I cannot find anyhwere is a command to end an incorrect or misdialled/instructed telephone call after dialling starts. Unless I have missed it somewhere, it is completely ridiculous. You can end route guidance and various other commands, but not an embarrassing call to the wrong person it seems.

Please say I am wrong and share the secret!!

Thanks

Push the lever towards the front of the car.

Many thanks - I'm away for a couple of weeks, so will try when I return. The manual attached appears similar to what I have read in the car's docs on Linguatronic, but I will look at it when I am able.

Mine is controlled either by the Linguatronic steering wheel activation button, or manually via the Comand knob and the s/w multifuntion buttons ... so no lever. However the mechanics are broadly the same, except that without the lever, it does seem that the only way to end a call early is by manually pressing the relevant s/w button - i.e., there is no voice command to end a call.

I have to repeat that it seems somewhat lacking for a voice control system to rely on a manual act for a significant event to occur. It's no big deal, just a bit bizarre! ... unless of course I am still missing something, but I can find no obvious references anywhere. It seems you can terminate almost anything by voice except a phone call!
