Once a route is selected, you will begin to hear voice guidance prompts.
If you are not currently on the route, there will be a prompt. There may
be up to three voice prompts for each maneuver, depending on the
vehicle speed and the distance before the maneuver. The voice prompts
will announce all road names in route guidance instructions. Road name
pronunciations may vary from local pronunciations. The last prompt will
be a double tone and will give just enough time for you to complete the
maneuver.
To adjust the volume level of the voice guidance prompts, turn the
volume control during a voice prompt, or set to the desired level on the
FEEDBACK screen. (Refer to theMenusection).
