Infotainment warning when switched on
« on: March 29, 2019, 05:47:35 PM »
Does anyone know if it is possible to switch off the annoying warning which comes up every time on the screen. The one which tells us not to use it on the move.
Cheers

No it is not.  This subject has been thrashed to death elsewhere on the forum.

I think its an EU safety directive. They just treat us all like children, its my pet hate on my Honda Jazz. I drove a Peugeot 108 last year and it did not have warning.

From a blank screen you can still switch on the radio from the button on the top right but you can't change the channel. How crazy is that. >:(

Can you not change the channel using the steering wheel buttons (arrows left and right)?

Great idea I will try the steering wheel controls to change channels when the info screen is blank. Yes it works, goes to show you can learn something new every day.

I am almost 71 and I still learn something new everyday. Mind you, my wife says it is often  because I forgot it yesterday!

I don't think it's EU mandated - at least not the way Honda have done it. My 2020 Corolla displays a warning but it removes it after a few seconds without me having to do anything.

Unfortunately it's not all sweetness and light because the infotainment unit won't automatically start playing from my iPod Touch when I turn the engine on. In fact the audio function has to be switched back on and then I have to select the correct source. That's better than what my Jazz did when I first got it but still irritating. Possibly it's Toyota's rubbish attempt to fix a long standing issue where some owners complained that the infotainment unit randomly started playing music from their iPhones. Perhaps the fix was simply to disable iFunctionality on start up.

Hey ho :)

I am 71 and my big problem is that over time I forget how to do things like changing clocks for daylight saving and I have to learn it all over again. The joys of old age. Hurray for Honda site on YouTube.
