Phone button on steering wheel

When you press on the phone button on the steering wheel, does it do anything? My iPhone is connected via bluetooth and it works from the main menu, but if I try to make a call from the steering wheel, it doesn't do anything.

It answers incoming calls and I think it will dial if you have a number called up already.

OP, press 'TEL' on the dash if you want to do something like make a call, search, etc. Use the steering buttons to pick up a call or put down a call.

If you select "Telephone" under your menu in the dash, then if you press the call button you vill see the recent called numbers in the dash.

Other then that if not in telephone menu in the dash, it just answers calls.
Which is one of the big things i miss from many previous cars I owned. Cause in all of the BMW / Audi / VW etc if you press the call button, no matter what you had in the screen in your dashboard, you could always see your last called numbers.

And also, the whole menu in the dash when your in the "phone-menu" it looks so boring, the only thing showing up is your operator. In my previous cars there was the name of your phone, and the battery of your phone, and also the signal-status.

Well well, you can't get it all
