Voice Control for Command

I just purchased a 2006 W220 a few months ago. Love the car., but can anyone direct me on how to activate and use the voice control on the command center. The owners manual is very vague on this subject and the dealer did not give me anything in detail about the voice control...the only thing I could find was how to set up "Voice Individualization" on the control center.
Thanks, love being part of this great community!

Are you just referring to voice reco for the radio and nav stuff?

if so, there is a lever on the right side of the steering column. Pull it towards you, and once you hear the beep, you can say your command.

The dealer can add phone integration with VCS for about $1,500-$2,000. I don't know what they would charge to add VCS alone. You can also look around for the parts and do the install yourself, but it's not really very useful without the phone integration.
