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 voice command that
you are using. See Voice Command
Index on page 138.
• Adjust the dashboard and side vents so air does not blow against the
microphone on the ceiling.
• Close the windows and the sunroof.

Navigation System15
RIDGELINE KA 31SJC860
Getting Started
Using the On-screen
Keyboard
When the system needs input from you,
the display changes to a keyboard. Use
the displayed letters to enter the
information. Enter each letter by one of
the following methods:
• Using the voice control system, say
the desired letter on the screen.
• Move the highlighting to the desired letter using the joysti ck, then push in
on the joystick.
• Touch the desired letter on the screen.
When speaking the letters or using
“spell mode,” you can substitute the
name that represents each letter or
symbol. This improv es recognition. The
system will only r espond to the names
shown in the following graphic. For
example:
• To select the letter “A”: Say, “ A”;
“ Alpha ”; or “Apple.”
• To select the letter “M”: Say, “ M”;
“ Mike ”; or “ Mary.” The names that can be used for each letter
are shown below. For additional keyboard
symbols, see page 144.

System Setup
Edit Address
When you say or select Edit Address,
the display changes to:
Current Position - Allows you to use
your current position as the address.
Address - Requires you to enter the city
and address you wish to store. The
operation is the same as selecting
Address from the Enter destination
by screen (see page 23). Places -
Allows you to select one of the
Point of Interest (POI) locations already
stored in the system as one of your
personal addresses. This operation is the
same as selecting Places from the
Enter destination by screen (see
page 32).
Previous Destinations - Allows you to
choose one of the locations in the
Previous Destinations list for your
Address Book list. This operation is the
same as selecting Previous
Destinations from the Enter
destination by screen (see page 42).
After you have used one of these four
options to enter the address, the initial
screen for entering the personal address
is redisplayed, with the address shown
in the “Address” field. If you have
entered the address using Places, the
phone number corresponding to the
address also appears in the “Phone
Number” field. Edit Phone Number
You can enter the telephone number of
the address. If the address was chosen
with
Places, and it has a telephone
number, that number is entered
automatically.
Say or select Edit Phone Number to
display the Enter phone number
screen. Enter the telephone number,
including the area code, by using the
voice control system (say the entire
phone number one digit at a time) or by
using the on-screen keyboard. Say or
select Done when finished.

Frequently Asked Questions
Guidance, Routing
ProblemSolution
The navigation does not route me the same way I would go, or
the way some other mapping program displays. Why is this? The navigation system attempts to generate the optimum route. See
Changing the Routing Method on page 48.
Why is the street I’m on not shown on the map? It has been
here for more than a year. The mapping database is constantly undergoing revision. See page 108 for
ways to obtain the latest detailed coverage information.
The vehicle position icon is not following the road, and the
“GPS icon” text in the upper left hand corner of the screen is
white or missing. • The GPS antenna (located under the center of the dashboard) may be
blocked by personal items. For best reception, remove items from the
dashboard, such as radar detector s, cell phones, or loose articles.
• Metallic tinting or other aftermarke t devices can interfere with the GPS
reception. Please see your dealer. Also see System Limitations on
page 103.
I entered a destination, but the blue highlighted route and
voice guidance stopped, or turned into a blue/pink dashed line
before I got to my destination. Why is this? Your route has entered an
unverified area. See Unverified Area Routing on
page 87.
The map rotates while I make turns. How can I stop this? Select the North-up map orientation by voice, or by touching the map
orientation icon on the map screen. See Map Orientation on page 57.
Sometimes, I cannot select between the North-up and
Heading-up map orientations. Why is this? The Heading-up map orientation can only be shown in the lower scales
(1/20 - 1 mile scales). See
Map Scale on page 56.
While driving to my destination, the “time to go” display
sometimes increases, even th ough I am getting closer. The “Time to go” is based on actual road speeds. However if your speed
slows down when you encounter slower traffic, the system updates the
“Time to go” based on your actual speed to give you a better estimate of
arrival time.
The vehicle position icon on th e map “lags” a short distance
behind, especially when I arrive at an intersection. Is there
anything wrong? No. When at an in
tersection, the system is un aware of the width of the
intersecting road. Large differences in vehicle position can indicate a
temporary loss of the GPS signal. See GPS Reception Issues on page 103.
