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 the audio system. The
voice control system uses the NAVI
TALK and NAVI BACK buttons on
the steering wheel and a microphone
near the map light on the ceiling.
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 page131 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
the navigation system commands only.
However, it can be used to cancel an
audio voice command up to one second
after the command confirmation.

Navigation System13
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
“back-up” method of entry.
Most of the system’s functions can be
controlled by voice commands activated
with the NAVI TALK button. To
control your navigation system by
voice:
 Press and release the NAVI TALK
button.
 Wait for the beep.
 Give a voice command.
Once the microphon e 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 not sure of what voice
commands are available on a screen,
you can always say “Help” at any
screen. The system can then read the list
of commands to you.
When you speak 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,
the following guide
lines 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 page131.
 Adjust the airflow from both the dashboard and side vents so they do
not blow against the microphone on
the ceiling. Place your hand over the
microphone; if you feel any airflow,
adjust the vents.
 Lower the A/C fan speed during voice recognition operation.
 Close the windows and the sunroof.
2008 CR- V

14Navigation System
Getting Started
 After pressing and releasing the NAVI TALK button, wait for the
beep, then give a voice command.
 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 more than one pe rson is speaking at
the same time, the system may
misinterpret your command.
 If you are still having trouble with the voice control sy stem, refer to Voice
Command Help on the
Information screen.Selecting an Item (Button)
on the Screen
On 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.
 Touch the desired item on the screen.
 Move the highlighting to the desired item with the joystick, then push in
on the joystick.
Tip
If items are grayed out (very dark
colored), this means that they cannot be
selected.
Selecting an Item in a List
To scroll through a list, do one of the
following:
 Use the joystick to scroll through the list item by item.
 Use the voice control system and say “Next ” or “Previous ” or use the “on
screen” scroll up or down buttons, or
the ZOOM buttons 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.
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.
 Touch the item on the screen.
 Use the joystick to move the highlighting to the it em, then push in
on the joystick.

Navigation System15
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 joystick, then push in
on the joystick.
 Touch the desired le tter on the screen.
When speaking the letters or using
“spell mode,” you can substitute the
name that represents each letter or
symbol. This improves recognition. The
system will only re spond 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 lette
r are shown below. For additional keyboard
symbols, see page138.

Getting Started
Each entered letter will appear at the top
of the display. Say or select Space to
enter a space between words. Say or
select Delete to erase a letter entered
incorrectly.
When entering an address, the system
searches the database for words that
match the letters you are entering. As a
result, you will notice that some letters
are no longer available.
When the system finds only one entry
that matches, it completes the entry of
the name for you. If the system finds
more than one entry that matches your
input, the system displays a list.
Tip:
If you are unsure of the spelling of a
name, enter the lette rs that you are sure
of, and then select List. The system
displays a list of names that most closely
matches your input. You can choose to have your keyboard
displayed in alphabetized format as
shown below:
Or in a regular keyboard (QWERTY)
format as shown below:
See
Keyboard Layout in the Setup
