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 th e audio. The voice control system uses the NAVI TALK and NAVI BACK buttons on the steering wheel and a microphone near the map lights on the ceiling.
(Sedan Controls shown)
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 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 navigation system commands only. However, it can be used to cancel an audio 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 Owner’s Manual and the official website ( handsfreelink.honda.com) for information on this system.

Getting Started
Using the Voice Control System
You should use the voice control system as much as possible, and consider manual entry using the joystick as a backup method of entry.
Most of the system’s functions can be controlled by voice commands activated with the NAVI TALK button. To control the navigation system by voice:
• Press and release the NAVI TALK button.
• Wait for the beep.
• Give a voice command.
Once the microphone picks up your command, the system changes the display in response to the command and prompts you for the next command. Using the NAVI TALK button, answer the prompts as required.
If the system does not understand a command or you wait too long to give a command, it responds with “Pardon,” “Please repeat,” or “Would you say again.” If the system cannot perform a command or the command is not appropriate for the screen you are on, it sounds a beep.
Anytime you are unsure of what voice commands are available on a screen, you can always say “Help.” The system will then read the list of available commands to you.
When you give a command, the system generally either repeats the command as a confirmation or asks you for further information. If you do not wish to hear this feedback, you can turn it off. However, hearing the feedback will familiarize you with the way the system expects commands to be phrased. See the Voice Recognition Feedback setting in Setup.
If you hear a prompt such as “Please use the touch screen to...” or “Please choose an area with the joystick,” the system is asking for input that cannot be performed using the voice control system.
Improving Voice Recognition
To achieve optimum voice recognition when using either the navigation or Bluetooth ® HandsFreeLink® voice control system, the following guidelines should be followed:
NOTE:
Make sure the correct screen is displayed for the vo ice command that you are using. See Voice Command Index on page 140.
• Adjust the dashboard and side vents so air does not blow against the microphone on the ceiling.
• Close the windows and the sunroof.
• If more than one person is speaking at the same time, the system may misinterpret your command.

Getting Started
If you select OK, the reminder will not show up again. If you wish to have the reminder show up again later in the day, touch the Remind Later button.
If you press the CANCEL button, the message will be displayed the next time you start the vehicle.
NOTE:
The system will display the current message and any older or previously unread messages, with the newest message listed first.
Bluetooth® HandsFreeLink®
If you have a Bluetooth-compatible cell phone that is paired, then CALL on the Calculate route to screen is enabled.
When you select CALL, the system dials the number shown on the screen. If CALL is not available (grayed out), and your phone is paired, then make sure the phone has service or that HFL is not in use; press the HFL BACK button.
For more information on Bluetooth® HandsFreeLink®, see your Owner’s Manual and the official website ( handsfreelink.honda.com).

Driving to Your Destination
Driving to Your Destination
A route typically has three phases.
• Initial route calculation ( Calculate route to screen) (see page 46).
• Change the route while en route (see page 64).
• Resume the route when restarting the engine (see Continue Trip Screen on page 69).
Calculate Route to Screen
Say or select OK. The system calculates the route using the method shown on the screen (see Map Screen on page 49).
NOTE:
Prior to departure, you can set areas to avoid. The system then includes them in its calculations for the destination you have entered. See Edit Avoid Area on page 89. For information on the available voice commands, see Voice Command Index on page 140.
Further selections from the Calculate route to screen include:
ADD TO Address Book
Allows you to add the destination to your Address Book. See By Address Book on page 43.
NOTE:
If the button is grayed out, the destination is already in your Address Book.
ADD TO Today’s Destinations
Allows you to add the destination to your Today’s Destinations list. See By Today’s Destinations on page 42.
NOTE:
If the button is grayed out, the Today’s Destinations list is already full (five destinations have been stored).
CALL
Dials the number on the screen when available. See Bluetooth® HandsFreeLink® on page 18.

Address and POI Entry Screens
When in Hawaii, the following differences occur for map, address, and POI selection:
• It is not possible to enter U.S. mainland addresses or scroll the map east to the U.S. mainland.
• Selection of the “State” is confined to the state of Hawaii only.
• Entry of a destination address or POI on an island other than your current island may result in a screen caution message. This is normal because there are no “ferry” routes between islands available in the database.
• If the “Guidance Prompts” setting on the Setup screen is set to normal or maximum, street names will not be spoken in voice guidance commands.
Setup Screen Differences
The Setup screen differences are minor and are listed below. See the Setup section (page 75) for additional information.
Routing and Guidance (Unverified
Area Routing On/Off)
This feature is unavailable. All roads displayed on the map are verified.
Clock Adjust Screen
There is no daylight saving time for Hawaii. Auto Daylight Saving Time , Auto Time Zone by GPS, and DST Selection will not be shown on the Clock adjustment screen. To test your adjustment, use the voice control system, and say “What time is it?” (see page 95).
Bluetooth ® HandsFreeLink®
Operation
When pairing a cell phone to use the Bluetooth ® HandsFreeLink® feature, you may see a “Phone-Data Connection” screen. If so, do not complete this portion of the process.
Shipping a Vehicle To or From
Hawaii
Although the DVD in the vehicle contains maps for both U.S. mainland and Hawaii, the dealer must perform the selection of “U.S. mainland” or “Hawaii” for you. When the dealer makes the switch from U.S. mainland to Hawaii or vice versa, the system clears all user data. Make sure to record any personal information that you do not want to lose.
NOTE:
Shipping a vehicle from Hawaii to the U.S. mainland If you wish to receive XM audio, you must call XM and set up an account at (800) 852-9696.
Shipping a vehicle from the U.S. mainland to Hawaii If a U.S. mainland -delivered vehicle is shipped to Hawaii, there is no XM reception. See your Hawaii dealer to allow viewing of local Hawaii maps. The issues under “Operation in Hawaii” above apply.

Troubleshooting
Screen Error Message Solution
Navigation system is unable to acquire a proper GPS signal.Make sure there is nothing on the dashboard blocking the GPS antenna (aftermarket metallic wi ndow tinting or aftermarket devices placed on the dashboard, like radar detectors, cell phones, or loose items). If the dashboard is clear of objects, move the vehicle to an open space away from tall buildings, trees, etc.
Navigation unit door is open or No DVD disc is inserted. Please check system. Make sure that the navigation DVD disc is inserted with the label side up and the navigation unit door is fully snapped closed (see page 106).
