Navigation System
RIDGELINE KA  31SJC850
Getting StartedVoice Control BasicsYour vehicle has a voice control system 
that allows hands-free operation of most 
of the navigation system functions. You 
can also control the audio and 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 lights on 
the ceiling.
NOTE:
While using the voice control system, all 
of the speakers are muted.
NAVI TALK  buttonThis button activates the voice control 
system. Press and release it when you 
want to give a vo ice command. See 
Voice Command Index on page 138 for 
a list of voice commands.
NAVI BACK  buttonThis button has the same function as the 
CANCEL button. When you press and 
release it, the display 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 or climate control voice command 
up to one second  after the command 
confirmation.
NOTE:
The  NAVI TALK  and NAVI BACK  
buttons are deactivat ed while using the 
Bluetooth®  HandsFreeLink ® feature. 
See your Owner’s Manual and the 
official website 
(handsfreelink.honda.com) for 
information on this system.
