Text Message/E-Mail Function (All)

What’s the Benefit?

This feature lets drivers stay connected by receiving text messages or e-mails and sending pre-written replies while on the road.


The Feature:

With a compatible phone paired to the vehicle’s Bluetooth®1 HandsFreeLink® system, this feature allows the driver to receive text messages or emails.

  • When a message is received, an alert will appear and the driver can choose to have it read aloud or ignore it.
  • The system allows the driver to choose from six pre-written messages to respond:
    • Talk to you later, I’m driving
    • I’m on my way
    • I’m running late
    • OK
    • Yes
    • No
  • The driver can also select “Call,” which automatically dials the number of the person who sent the text.
  • To determine if a phone is compatible, go to handsfreelink.com/honda.
