Clock Adjustment
From the Setup screen (second), say or
select Clock Adjustment and the
following screen appears:
This screen allows you to set or adjust
the following:
 Auto Daylight Saving Time (Default = On)
 Auto Time Zone by GPS (Default = On)
 DST (Daylight Saving 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 clock will
automatically “spring ahead” or “fall
back” by one hour when a daylight
saving 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 Day light Saving Time to
On , the daylight saving time function is
activated even in an area that does not
use daylight savings time.
The federal government mandated that
starting in 2007, daylight saving time
begins in March and ends in November
instead of the old schedule from April to
October. The schedule is subject to
review and possible cancellation in
2008-2009. The schedules for the time changes are
stored in the software and can be
selected in the
DST schedule
selection screen. Therefore, your clock
will change based on the daylight saving
time schedule.
NOTE:
The automatic clock setting feature
relies on a satellite signal. It will not
work in Hawaii and Alaska.
2009 Odyssey

122Navigation System
Operation in Alaska and
Hawaii
Certain functions that rely on a satellite
signal will not work in Alaska and
Hawaii. These functions include but are
not limited to XM radio, automatic
clock updates, and time zone
adjustments.
Alaska
If the vehicle was purchased in the
lower 48 states and driven to Alaska, the
system cannot display maps. The
message “Vehicle is out of the
database...” will be displayed.
Hawaii
This section describes the differences in
navigation system operation for vehicles
delivered in Hawaii.
XM Radio
Navigation-equipped vehicles delivered
to Hawaii are equipped with XM
hardware, but XM broadcasting is not
available; therefore sections of the
manual that mention XM audio do not
apply. Vehicles originally delivered to
the U.S. mainland and shipped to Hawaii
also have XM, but will not function
because the XM satellites (aimed toward
the U.S. mainland) are too far away to
obtain reception.
Map Coverage
All roads displayed on the Hawaii map
screens are detailed coverage roads.
Text related to “unverified” roads or
areas are not applicable. The following
topics do not apply in Hawaii:
 Unverified road descriptions (see page
6 and 86 ).
 Cautions and pop-up windows related to unverified roads (see page
64).  Setup entries that relate to turning on
or off unverified routing (see
page 87 ).
 When zooming in and out, there is no 350-mile scale for Hawaii.
Other Map Issues
 See the coverage section for a list of islands with coverage (see page 109).
 Freeway Exit information does not
exist in Hawaii, so the “Freeway Exit
Info” icon is not shown on the icon
bar.
