Voice Navigation to Telephone Contact

Can you use the voice recognition to navigate to a telephone contact? I'm struggling trying to figure out what to say to trigger it. I can bring up a contact in idrive and navigate to it, but how does one use the voice?

My Canadian Audi doesn't get any real connected features like pushing addresses from google maps, or an app to push addresses to the car like my BMW, but a user pointed out a slick way to get addresses into the NAV (which would work for anyone with a BMW that no longer had the connected drive subscription):

1) Make a new random contact "John Smith" on your phone. Enter the address you want to go to.
2) For audi, you push the button and say "Navigate to contact John Smith".
3) Like magic, you are on your way.

How can I do this in idrive using voice prompts?
