How do I enable or disable the activation word for the Intelligent Personal Assistant in my BMW with BMW Operating System 9?

Saying the activation word will start the Personal Assistant: ›Hello BMW‹. The microphones on the driver's or front passenger's side remain on during the subsequent voice dialog, depending on where the activation word was spoken.

 

Then say the command. The activation word and the command can be spoken without pause in one sentence.

 

Perform the following on the iDrive menus to enable or disable the activation word:

  1. Apps menu
  2. "All" 
  3. "Personal Assistant"
  4. "Settings"
  5. "General"
  6. "Activation with voice control"
