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 cleaner intended for
use on liquid crystal displays (LCDs).
Harsher chemicals may damage the
screen.
NOTE:
Whenever you shift to R (Reverse), the
rear view behind the vehicle is shown on
the navigation system screen. See
page116. 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
band, frequency, and volume. For XM
radio, a brief description of the station
and current music is displayed.
The climate status consists of the
driver’s and passenger’s temperature,
fan speed, ON/OFF (AC), and vent
setting. The time is automatically set by
the navigation system. Settings can be
adjusted in SETUP (see Time
Adjustment
on page110).

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 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 page153 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:
The NAVI TALK and NAVI BACK
buttons are deactivated while using the
Bluetooth® HandsFreeLink® feature.
See your vehicle Owner’s manual and
the official websit e (www.acura.com/
handsfreelink) for information on this
system.

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