Day and Night . The recommended
setting is Auto, which automatically
switches the screen between Day and
Night modes as you turn the headlights
on or off.
You can select Day or Night mode to
override the Auto mode. This is a
useful feature for driver’s that like to
use headlights during the day, and want
to temporarily override Night mode.
However, the screen in Day mode will
be extremely bright at night.

Clock Settings
From the Setup screen (second), say or
select Clock Settings and the
following screen appears:
Clock Adjustment
When you select Clock Adjustment ,
the following screen appears: This screen allows you to set or adjust
the following:
Auto Daylight Savings Time
(Default = On)
Auto Time Zone by GPS (Default = On)
DST (Daylight Savings Time) Selection
(Change DST schedule)
Time Adjustment (Adjust your clock)
Reset button (resets this screen’s
settings to factory defaults)
Auto Daylight Saving Time
Sets automatic daylight saving time On
or Off . If set to On, the navi clock will
automatically “spring ahead” or “fall
behind” by one hour when a daylight
savings time change occurs. If you
reside in a state or area where daylight
saving time is not used, then you may
want to turn this feature off. NOTE:
If you set Auto Daylight Saving Time to On, the Daylight Saving Time function
is activated even in an area that does not
adopt the Daylight Saving Time system.
The federal government has mandated
that, starting in 2007, daylight savings
time will change in March & November
instead of the old schedule in April &
October. The new government daylight
savings time schedule is subject to
review and possible cancellation in
2008.
The dates that the navi switches between
standard and daylight savings time are
not triggered by GPS satellite signals.
They are stored in the navi software and
can be selected in the
DST schedule
selection screen. Therefore your navi
clock will change based on the daylight
savings time schedule.

Coverage Areas
Map Coverage
The system provides map coverage for
the following 48 US states, and southern
Canada. The US map coverage consists
of accurately mapped (verified)
metropolitan areas (in the following
list), and a less accurate (unverified)
rural database. Canada coverage
consists of major metropolitan areas,
and major roads connecting the
metropolitan areas within about 100
miles north of the U.S. border. If you
need additional North Canada coverage,
you may purchase the Canadian DVD
(see Obtaining a Navigation Update
DVD on page102). See Map Overview
on page6 for a discussion of map
coverage.
The cities and metropolitan areas in the
following list are fully mapped. Only
major streets, roads, and freeways have
been verified outside these areas. If your
route passes through these areas, routing
may be limited in these areas, depending
on your routing choices (see Unverified
Area Routing on page81). If you desire additional map coverage
information, contact Honda Customer
Services or go to
www.hondanavi.com.
Operation in Hawaii and Alaska
Certain functions that rely on a satellite
signal will not work correctly in Hawaii
and Alaska. These functions include but
are not limited to automatic clock
updates and time zone adjustments.
