Push and hold the "sneezing man" button on your steering wheel for a few seconds. That invokes voice recognition. If you push and hold, and it does nothing or it only redials your most recently called number, then VR is turned off.

OK just tried it--seems to work just like it does with my 6th gen ULF in my e46...

Pressed and held button, then "Dial Number 555-555-1234...."

Guy starts talking to me, then dials the number, so I'm assuming its programmed...

Enabling this functionality is all the dealer programming will do?
