What are the functions of the Honda steering wheel buttons?
2 Answers
Honda steering wheel button functions are as follows: The buttons on the left side of the steering wheel control multimedia and Bluetooth phone: Confirm button, menu toggle, volume adjustment, voice control, call answer and end buttons. The right-side buttons control cruise control: SET is for setting speed, CANCEL is for canceling cruise, RES is for resuming cruise, cruise speed adjustment, and CRUISE is the cruise control switch button. The cruise control function can only be activated after setting the speed with the SET button; it will not activate without speed setting. The plus and minus buttons are used to adjust the speed value, with up/down controlling speed increase/decrease respectively.
When I drive my Honda, the steering wheel buttons are designed very practically, greatly enhancing driving convenience. The left-side buttons mainly control the volume, allowing you to slide up and down or press to adjust the music level. There are also media control buttons, such as previous and next track, so you don’t need to look down at the screen while driving, keeping your focus on the road for better safety. The right-side buttons handle Bluetooth call functions, with one-touch answering or hanging up, paired with the voice system for easy calls. At the top, there are cruise control buttons for setting speed and following distance, which are very handy, especially on highways or during long drives, reducing fatigue. Some models also integrate a voice assistant button—just press it to command navigation or play music, which is super convenient. These functions are consolidated on the steering wheel, making operations simple and efficient, whether for daily commutes or trips. I recommend new owners take some time to familiarize themselves with this button layout.
