I have the 61 and no matter what regional version you have this model has always had "voice command".
Garmin has had voice command built in Nuvis and DriveSmarts for some time now.
The minute the DriverSmart loads a window come down on the screen asking you the "voice command" you want go give it.

If you let it and do nothing it will go away.

You can bring it back by saying "Voice Command" and it will talk to you back asking you what is your command.
No you will run into problems if you have the DriveSmart in English and you are in Spain.
The message will come back both as voice and a message on the screen.

This feature is not available for Spain in British English

If you are in Spain your Garmin has to be in Spanish and you know how to speak in Spanish correctly it will work.

So "voice commands" that will work in English are:

Example:

"Go Home"
"Favourites"
"History"
"Category"

"Find Place" will not work as an example using English in a EU Country.


There is no patch for this it tells me you did something to the 61 that the voice command function is not working.

As for patching to use other maps I will not go into that on this forum.
There are other forums that go into details on how to do that.
....
I just got back from Spain and used it as an example.
Now I am in Belgium where there is both Dutch and French spoken.

It was just showing the type of problems you can run into if you use English as your setup in Germin and you are in a EU country.

Were a person is from in the EU will still have the same problem if this user has his DriveSmart in French and goes to another EU country the same problem will happen.


You can not use "Voice Command" in French and you are in as an example Spain it will not work except for the items I have listed.
