Getting Started
Voice 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 voic e control system,
the audio system is muted. NAVI TALK
button
This 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 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 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.

Accord 2D4D_KA 31TA5840
Getting StartedUsing the Voice Control SystemYou should use the voice control system
as much as possible, and consider
manual entry using the Interface Dial
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 (the icon is displayed on the top left of the
screen).
 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 Interface Dial to...” or “Please
choose an area with the Interface Dial,”
the system is asking for input that
cannot be performed using the voice
control system.
Improving Voice RecognitionTo achieve optimum voice recognition
when using either the navigation or
Bluetooth
® HandsFreeLink® voice
control system, the fo llowing 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 140.
 It is best if the windows and sunroof are closed. If you drive with the
windows or sunroof open, speak a
little louder to overcome the wind
noises.
 Adjust the dashboard and side vents so air does not blow against the
microphone on the ceiling.

Getting Started
 If more than one person is speaking at
the same time, the system may
misinterpret your command.
 After pressing and releasing the NAVI TALK button, wait for the
beep, then give a voice command
while the icon is displayed on the
top left of the screen .
 Give a voice command in a clear, natural speaking voice without
pausing between words.
 If the system cannot recognize your command because of background
noise, speak louder.
 If you are still having trouble with the voice control system, refer to Voice
Command Help on the
Information screen or say “Help”
while the icon is displayed on the
top left of the screen.
NOTE:
The voice control system can be used
only in the driver’s seat because the
microphone unit removes noises from
the front passenger’s side.
Selecting an Item (Button)
on the ScreenOn most screens, there are items that
can be selected (like buttons with titles
such as OK or Return ). To select an
item on any screen, do one of the
following:
 Use the voice control system and say
the name of the desired item. Almost
all selectable items on the screen,
including some listed items, are
recognized by the voice control
system.
 Move the highlighting to the desired item with the Interface Dial or its
knob , then push in on the Interface
Dial .
Tip:
If items are grayed out, this means that
they cannot be selected.
Selecting an Item in a ListTo scroll through a list, do one of the
following:
 Rotate the Interface Dial knob to
scroll one item at a time.
 Use the voice control system to scroll page by page. For example, to scroll
up, say “Up” or “Previous.” To scroll
down, say “Next” or “Down.”
 Move the Interface Dial up or down
to scroll through the list page by
page.
If you cannot find the desired name, or
have made an error, return to the
previous screen by pressing the
CANCEL or the NAVI BACK button
on the steering wheel.
To select the desired item in the list, do
one of the following:
 Use the voice control system, and say
the item number of the desired item.
 Rotate the Interface Dial knob to
move the highligh ting to the item,
then push in on the Interface Dial.

character state designation (CA-101).
For county roads, use the appropriate
designation (G-2, for example).
Tip:
When entering a stre et, you do not need
to enter the direction (N, S, E, W) or the
