2022 Honda Civic Owners Manual - System Setup



System Setup

Start-up

Start-up

The navigation system starts automatically when you set the power mode to ACCESSORY or ON. At start-up, the following confirmation screen is displayed.

  1. Select OK.
    • The Bluetooth connection message is displayed if you disconnected a Bluetooth device on the HOME screen.
    • If you do not select OK, the system will automatically select OK after a certain period of time.
    • The system will automatically start up the feature that was used the last time.
  1. Select Navigation.
    • The map screen or navigation tutorial screen is displayed. If the navigation tutorial screen is displayed, select Exit.
    • When you want to display the navigation top screen, you press the button.
Detail
Avoid focusing on the screen and drive safely following the actual traffic restrictions.

When you use the navigation system, the system may close other apps.

When you select Navigation, the system displays the navigation feature that was used the last time. At start-up, the map screen is displayed.

Navigation tutorial is displayed at initial start.
You can display the tutorial from the main menu at any time.

Certain manual functions are disabled or inoperable while the vehicle is in motion. You cannot select a grayed-out option until the vehicle is stopped.
Voice commands are still operable while the vehicle is in motion.

Voice Control System

Voice Control System

Your vehicle has a voice control system that allows hands-free operation of the navigation system functions.
The voice control system uses the button on the steering wheel and a microphone near the map lights on the ceiling.
For details of the button and microphone position, see the Owner’s Manual.

Detail
When you press the button, the system prompts you to say a voice command. Press and release the button again to bypass this prompt and give a command.

Voice Recognition

To achieve optimum voice recognition when using the navigation voice control system:

  • Make sure the correct screen is displayed for the voice command that you are using. The system recognizes certain commands.
    Available navigation commands:

  • Close the windows and moonroof.
  • Adjust the dashboard and side vents so air does not blow onto the microphone on the ceiling.
  • Speak in a clear, natural speaking voice without pausing between words.
  • Reduce any background noise if possible. The system may misinterpret your command if more than one person is speaking at the same time.
Detail
The voice control system can only be used from the driver’s seat because the microphone unit removes noises from the passenger’s side.
