Compass Operation (EX-L, EX-L V6 w/o Navi)

Your vehicle is equipped with a self-calibratingcompass system. Overall operation of thissystem can be affected when you drive:

• Near power lines or stations• Across bridges• Through tunnels• Over railroad crossings• Past large vehicles• Near large objects that can cause a magnetic

disturbance.

It can also be affected by accessories such asantennas and roof racks that are mounted bymagnets.

Compass Zone SelectionIn most areas, there is a variation betweenmagnetic north and true north. Zone selectionis required so the compass can compensate forthis variation. See the owner’s manual for zoneselection information.

CalibrationAt times, the compass may need to bemanually calibrated after exposure to a strongmagnetic field. If the compass seems to becontinuously showing the wrong direction andis not self-calibrating, or if the compass displayis blinking with the CAL indicator on, follow thecalibration procedure found in the owner’smanual.

Using the Voice Control System

The voice control system allows for convenient, hands-freeoperation of navigation and selected audio and climate controlsystem functions. For a complete list of voice commands, seethe navigation system manual or press the INFO button, thenselect VOICE COMMAND HELP.

TALK/BACK ButtonsEnsure that you are using the NAVITALK/BACK buttons for navigationcommands, and not the HFL buttonslocated in front of them.

• NAVI TALK button: Activates the voicecontrol system (audio system mutes).Push and release on the button, then wait for a beep. Give a voice

command in a clear, natural speaking voice (without pause)within 3 seconds. Otherwise, the system will prompt you torepeat your command.Tip: A multiple beep indicates that a function is unavailableor is already set. For example, if fan speed is set to three,and you say “Fan speed three,” you will hear “beep-beep-beep.”

• NAVI BACK button: When viewing a menu screen, returnsthe display to the previous screen. It is enabled fornavigation commands only, but can cancel an audio orclimate command up to one second after the commandconfirmation.

General Voice Control GuidelinesThe voice control microphone is located in the ceilingconsole. To properly control the system:

• If the system cannot recognize your commandbecause of background noise, speak louder.

• Voice commands from the front passenger are notaccepted by the system.

Optimizing Voice ControlTo optimize voice recognition and hear the voicefeedback:• Avoid running the fan at maximum speeds.• Adjust the vents so they don’t blow directly at the

microphone in the ceiling.• Minimize the amount of wind noise from open

windows or the sunroof.

Voice Control Assistance• To hear the valid voice commands for any screen,

simply say “Help.”• To repeat the instructions for how to use any

screen, say “Repeat voice.”• While learning the commands, ensure that the navi

volume and “Voice feedback” settings are set toON. The feedback provides confirmation of yourcommand and provides the best way to say thecommand.
