Getting Started
Screen
All selections and instructions are
displayed on the screen. The Display is
not a “touch screen” - you enter
information into the system either by
voice or by using the Interface Dial.
Clean the screen with a soft, damp cloth.
You may use a mild cleanser intended
for use on liquid crystal displays
(LCDs). Harsher chemicals may
damage the screen.
NOTE:
Whenever you shift to R (reverse), the
rear view is shown on the navigation
system screen. See page 107.Lower Display
Shows a summary of the audio and
climate control information, as well as
the time. This summary is helpful as a
confirmation when adjusting audio or
climate by voice.
The audio summary consists of the
radio, frequency, and volume.
The climate status consists of the
driver’s and passenger’s temperature
displays. The time is automatically set
by the navigation system. Settings can
be adjusted in Setup (see Clock
Adjustment on page 99).

Navigation System13
Getting Started
Voice Control Basics
Your vehicle has a voice control system
that allows hands-free operation of most
of the navigation system functions. You
can also control the audio system and
the climate control system. The voice
control system uses the NAVI TALK
and NAVI BACK buttons on the
steering wheel and a microphone near
the map light on the ceiling.
NOTE:
While using the voice control system, all
of the speakers (except the RES
handphone) are muted. NAVI TALK
button
This button activates the voice control
system. Press and release it when you
want to give a voice command. See
Voice Command Index on page 140 for
a list of voice commands. NAVI BACK
button
This button has the same function as the
CANCEL button. When you press and
release it, the disp lay returns to the
previous screen. When the previous
screen appears, the system replays the
last prompt. This button is enabled for
the navigation system commands only.
However, it can be used to cancel an
audio or climate control voice command
up to one second after the command
confirmation.
NOTE:
On the Enter phone number screen,
you can delete the entered number
entirely by pushing the NAVI BACK
button.
The NAVI TALK and NAVI BACK
buttons are deactivated while using
the HandsFreeLink feature. See your
vehicle Owner’s manual and the
official web site
(www.handsfreelink.com) for
information on this system.

various methods to begin driving to
your destination (orange). You are
provided with map/voice guidance,
routing cautions, and a direction list.
