Audio System When HFL is in use, the sound comes through the vehicle’s front audio system speakers. If the audio system is in use while operating either of the HFL buttons or making a call, HFL overrides the audio system. To change the volume level, use the audio system volume knob or the steering wheel volume controls.
Microphone The HFL microphone is on the ceiling, between the front map lights and the HomeLink buttons. On models with navigation system, the microphone is shared with the navigation system.
HFL and the navigation system have separate voice recognition systems. When HFL is in use, a voice command for the navigation system will not be recognized even if you press the navigation Talk button. In this case, you will hear two short beeps, and the HFL system has no prompt.
