• Remote door lock/unlock: Remotely lock or unlock doors.
• Vehicle finder: Locate your vehicle in large areas, such as a parking lot.
• Security alarm notification: If your vehicle’s security system detects tampering,
the provider notifies you.
Operator Assistance
Connect to the AcuraLink operator when trying to find a destination or for
roadside assistance.

LINK button
Learn how to enter a destination and operate the navigation system.
Basic Navigation Operation
A real-time navigation system uses GPS and a map database to show your current
location and help guide you to a desired destination. You can operate the system
using voice commands or the system controls.
To reduce the potential for driver distraction, certain manual functions may
be inoperable or grayed out while the vehicle is moving. Voice commands are
always available.
Steering Wheel Controls
Use the steering wheel controls to give voice
commands.
Hang-Up/Back button: Press to cancel a
command or operation.
Talk button: Press to say navigation commands.
Voice Command Tips
• When using the Talk button, wait for a beep before saying a command.
• To bypass the system prompts, simply press the Talk button again to say your
command.
• When the Talk button is pressed, all available voice commands are highlighted
in yellow.
• Speak in a clear, natural voice.
• Reduce all background noise.
• Adjust the dashboard and side vents away from the microphone in the ceiling.
Fan speed may be temporarily reduced during voice recognition operation.
• Close the windows and moonroof.
Using the navigation system while driving can take your attention away from
the road, causing a crash in which you could be seriously injured or killed.
Only operate system controls when the conditions permit you to safely do
so.

2. Pull the hood release handle under the lower
left corner of the dashboard.
3. Slide the hood latch lever in the center of the
