6 Introduction This manual explains the operation of the Boom!TM Box infotainment system. There are three different versions: its 4.3, 6.5GT, and 6.5T model variants. Read this manual carefully and keep it in your motorcycle at all times. Definitions • T = Touch Screen • G = GPS Navigation database • 4.3 = 4.3” Screen • 6.5 = 6.5” screen Product variants: • Boom!™ Box 4.3 • Boom!™ Box 6.5GT • Boom!™ Box 6.5T Features Matrix Note: For the matrix features see the spreadsheet loaded on eRoom. https://eroom.harley-davidson.com/eRoom/1300/2013I/0_2bbe4 Filename: Radio Features Matrix for Users Manual.xls Should this information be on a web site, instead of on the printed material?(The matrix is too big for printing it, or inserting it into the Owner’s manual). Symbols and Illustrations The illustrations in this manual show the typical layout. The actual design and button position may differ slightly depending on your vehicle and system configuration. Warnings WARNING ● This symbol represents a warning against any actions which may cause injury to people if the warning is ignored. ● You are informed about what you must or must not do in order to reduce the risk of injury to yourself and/or others.
7 Safety Figure 1. Acceptance screen, 6.5 Models Figure 2. Acceptance screen, 4.3 Models Note: Randee to check with the Liability team, whether the 4.3 screen should be included, in addition to the 6.5 To use the Boom!TM Box infotainment system in the safest possible way follow all the warnings, cautions and safety tips shown throughout this manual. Do not use any feature of this system to the extent it becomes a distraction and prevents safe riding. The first priority while riding should always be the safe operation of the vehicle. While riding, be sure to observe all traffic regulations. Practice using the system and become thoroughly familiar with it. Read the entire manual to make sure you understand the functions. Do not allow other people to use this system until they have read and understood the instructions in this manual. While riding, you are solely responsible for the safe operation of your motorcycle. For your safety, some functions will become inoperable when the motorcycle in motion. WARNING ● For safety, the motorcycle rider should not program the navigation system while in motion. Lack of attention to the road and traffic may cause an accident. ● While riding, be sure to obey the traffic regulations and maintain awareness of the road conditions.
8 If a traffic sign on the road has been changed, navigation route guidance may not have the updated information. While riding, listen to the voice instructions as much as possible. Glance at the screen briefly and only when it is safe to do so. Do not rely solely on voice guidance. Use it just for reference. The data in the system may occasionally be incomplete. Road conditions, including restrictions (no left turns, street closures, etc.) frequently change. Therefore, before following any instruction from the system, look to see whether the instruction can be done safely and legally. This system cannot warn about such things as the safety of an area, road conditions and availability of emergency services. Use this system only in locations where it is legal to do so.
9 Speed Locked Controls WARNING ● For your own safety the keyboard is disabled to enter a name or number (e.g., street name, phone number, etc.), while the vehicle is in motion. ● Pull over at a safe location to enter data into the system. Many features of this system are speed-dependent. The system will indicate when a certain feature is not available while the vehicle is in motion, through a pop-up screen similar to the one shown on Figure 3. Figure 3. Unavailability of a feature while vehicle in motion.

Voice Recognition Operation The Voice Recognition system allows control over AM, FM radio, Sirius XM (if equipped), multimedia player and navigation system (if equipped). WARNING ● Any voice commanded system should be used only in safe driving conditions following local laws. ● All attention should be kept on the roadway ahead. NOTE Always speak into the headset microphone as calmly and normally as possible. Rapid speech or a raised voice level will degrade voice recognition capability. When the Voice Command button is pressed on the Left handlebar controls, a beep will sound. The beep is a prompt to speak a command. The system will present a list of possible commands.
88 Pressing the Voice Command button while the system is speaking is known as “barging in”. The system will be interrupted and you can add or change commands. NOTE 4.3 Models use Voice Recognition for Phone functions, in US English language only. 6.5 Models use Voice Recognition for Phone and other functions in all the supported languages. The voice commands are classified by functions, which are: • Phone commands (4.3 and 6.5 models) • Media commands (6.5 models only) • Tuner commands (6.5 models only) • Navigation commands (6.5 models only) • Other commands (6.5 models only) • Help commands (6.5 models only) NOTE Maybe will need to rephrase this, but want to capture the idea: VR commands are global in nature, as opposed to mode specific. For example, the rider should not have to say “XM” before saying “Channel Up”; the system could be in any Tuner or Media mode and simply say “Channel Up”, and a switch to Sirius XM mode is implicit. Phone commands (4.3 and 6.5 models) These commands are useful for controlling Phones connected through Bluetooth®: • CALL (followed by contact name) – Dials the contact’s phone number as entered on your phone book. • DIAL (followed by a phone number) – Dials the specified phone number. • REDIAL – Dials again the last number dialed. Media Commands (6.5 models only) These commands are useful for controlling audio devices connected through Bluetooth® or USB. In this mode you may say the following commands: • PLAY (followed by artist, album or song) – to play music, according to selection.
89 • ARTIST (followed by artist) – to play songs from a specific artist. • ALBUM (followed by album) – to play songs from a specific album. • SONG (followed by song) – to play the commanded song. • SEARCH FOR MUSIC (followed by song, or LIST ALL) – to search for a song or list all songs. • GENRE (followed by genre name, or LIST ALL) – to search for songs of specific genre, or list all available genres. • PLAY PLAYLIST (followed by playlist name) – to play songs from the mentioned playlist. • NEXT TRACK – to play the next track. • PREVIOUS TRACK – to play the previous track. • ALL SONGS – to play all songs. • MEDIA – to change to Media mode. Tuner commands (6.5 models only) These commands are useful for selecting radio bands and stations. • TUNE TO (followed by the radio station frequency) – to change the radio frequency. • SEEK UP – To select the next radio station. • SEEK DOWN – To select the previous radio station. • NEXT PRESET – To select the next Preset. • PREVIOUS PRESET – To select the previous Preset. • A M – To select AM band. • F M – To select FM band.

Navigation commands (6.5 models only) • HOME – Once a Home address has already been defined, this command will set that address as the Navigation destination. • DESTINATION (followed by address) – Sets the spoken address as a Navigation destination. NOTE As a recommendation, enter a destination in one shot as in the following example (excluding the ZIP code): say “DESTINATION 400 West Canal Street Milwaukee, Wisconsin”.
90 • FAVORITE (followed by the favorite name) – Sets the destination to a favorite address in the favorite list. • FIND NEXT (followed by a POI name) – finds the closest location for a given POI, or brand. • SHOW MAP – This command is useful to switch to the Navigation map, when it is not currently visible. • CANCEL ROUTE GUIDANCE – Cancels the current route guidance. • REPEAT INSTRUCTIONS – Repeats the last voice instruction provided by the Navigation route guidance. Any of the following commands enters an interactive destination address entry dialog: • ENTER COUNTRY • ENTER STATE • ENTER CITY • ENTER ZIP CODE • ENTER STREET • ENTER HOUSE NUMBER Navigation Operation (if equipped) Your navigation system receives GPS signals from an array of positional satellites to display the geographical position of your vehicle. When you input a destination, the navigation system uses a map database to calculate a route. The system’s database includes Point of Interest (POI) categories to allow you to easily select destinations such as restaurants, hotels and other common destinations. If a destination is not in the
91 database, you can enter the street address or a major intersection close to it and the system will guide you to reach such destination. As you ride along your chosen route, you are guided with pictorial displays and voice prompts. The system will provide both a visual map and audio instructions. The audio instructions will announce the distance remaining and the direction to turn in approaching an intersection. These voice instructions will help you keep your eyes on the road. The system has several options for Navigation. Read the User settings Navigation section for more information on these settings. NOTE After the Bike or the Boom!TM Box has just recently been powered on, the Navigation System needs some time to initialize. To begin using the Navigation system, wait until the system has finished the initialization process.
