The spoken GPS instructions (e.g. "turn right at the next") are much too loud. I cannot figure out how to reduce the volume.

 

You cant is the thing....

 

eazy, you havent had much time with the navi huh.. you will learn how to figure out things as you go along..

but to answer nhester question.

you have to go to menu and turn off the voice thing.

i turned mines to lowest so you can just barely notice it but enough to have you turn your head to the screen.

it should be under menu - slide right on the navi knob to go to settings..

 

just go to setup and lower the volume. i have it at the second lowest setting and it's perfect for me

 

Thanks. I think I have tried this with no luck... but will try again.

 

Even on 2009 though?

 

i have a 2010, and i have the ability to lower it, so you should have the same as well..

 

do you have any mods?

 

not on the stereo or navi at all..

 

I think this is good for 2010 and beyond... not sure about 2009.
INFO > SETUP > VOLUMN

 

i dont think you can do it on 2009

 

I have a 2009 and that worked for me!

 

Worked on my 2012.

 

You can turn the volume off by just going Info > Setup > Volume > OFF.

No sound with GPS instructions - great that it doesn't cut in to music, but I have missed a turn or 2...

 

Page 93 of the manual. In System Setup.
The navigation voice volume has 11
settings and can be adjusted by:
• Using the voice control system and
saying “Volume up” or “Volume
down.”
• Selecting Volume and changing the
setting by rotating the Interface
Dial knob.
• Saying “Volume Off,” or selecting
Volume and then OFF.

 

Thanks! I was looking for this as well
