Visiting Your Dealer
We strive to make this manual as
complete as possible and to answer all
questions regarding operation of the
system. Occasionally you may run into a
specific issue that you cannot find in the
book. You may save yourself a trip to
the dealer by first consulting the
following resources:
The Troubleshooting section (see page120)
The Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs) section (see page113)
For detailed questions regarding Audio or other systems that interact
with the navigation system, see the
main vehicle Owner’s manual, or the
Quick Start Guide Call Acura Client Relations (see
“Acura Automobile Client Services”)
For database or PO I issues, follow the
guidelines in the “Reporting Errors”
section (see page101)
If your question is still unanswered and
you wish to visit the dealer, please be
prepared to demonstrate the issue to the
service consultant. That way, the service
consultant can document the issue for
the factory to allo w more efficient
troubleshooting. Some issues may at
first seem random, but you may notice a
pattern, like it only occurs when you
enter some specific address, or when
driving on a certain road, or just when
it’s cold. This inform ation is very useful
to the service consu ltant. Be patient, the
tech may be unfamiliar with your
specific issue.
Obtaining a Navigation
Update DVD
Acura is continually expanding the
scope of the navigation system.
Upgraded software may be made
available to navigation system owners
periodically, usually in the fall of each
year.

DVDs are not available at your dealer. However, the dealer may
order a DVD for you as a courtesy.
There is no program for free DVD
updates.
The DVD order line staff cannot answer technical questions regarding
navigation operation, coverage, or
POIs.
