System Function Diagram
This diagram shows the navigation
system features, starting at the center
and working outward in layers. The
navigation program starts at “Key ON,”
and then displays the globe screen

Destination Icon
The destination icon only shows the
approximate location of the destination.
This occurs because a city block can
have as many as 100 possible addresses
(for example, the 1400 block is followed
by the 1500 block). Most cities use only
a portion of the 100 possible addresses
(for example, in the 1400 block, the
addresses may only go up to 1425
before the 1500 block starts). Therefore,
the address 1425 will be shown a
quarter of the way down the block by
the system instead of near the end of the
block where the destination is actually
located.
Tip:
When en route, you can view a map
showing your destination. Using voice
control, say “Display destination map.”
Landmark Icons
Landmark icons are shown in the map
screen on the 1/20 and 1/8 mile scales or
80 and 200 meter scales. The Freeway
Exit information is displayed on the 1/4,
1/2, and 1 mile scales. The icons are:
Some icons can be turned on or off;
you can either display them or hide
them by pushing in on the Interface
Dial on the map or guidance screen
and select Show Icon on Map (see
page60), or by using voice commands
(see page136). You can select most landmark icons
with the
Interface Dial to display the
icon’s information. See the table on the
following page for exceptions.
NOTE:
 The same icon list can be viewed on the screen by selecting Map Legend
from the Information screen.
 When there are overlapping landmark icons, a list of the points of
interest (POIs) is displayed.
 For information on the available voice commands, see Voice
Command Index on page136.
One-Way Traffic Icon
The one-way traffic icons (see Map
Screen Legend on page50) are only
shown on the 1/20 mile scale and only
when turned on in ICON OPTIONS
(see page60).

Navigation System93
System Setup
For “Places along the route,” the system
looks in front of yo u within a corridor
width specified by your values for “On
Freeways” or “On Surface Street.” The
system checks the upcoming area, based
on your input.
For “Places around the destination,” the
system searches outwards in a spiral
from the destination. In this case,
specific search values are not needed;
the matches are displayed in order of
distance from destination.
NOTE:
These settings do not affect the search
range used for the voice commands like
“Find nearest gas station” that are also
available when viewing the map screen.Guidance Mode
Allows you to select the guidance
display mode: Single Screen or Split
Screen .
To get to Guidance Mode from the
SETUP screen, select in sequence,
“Other” tab, “Routing & Guidance,”
and “Guidance Mode.”
The factory default is Single Screen.
NOTE:
The Guidance Mode can also be
selected on the Icon Selection screen.
See Showing Icons on the Map on
page60.
Clock Adjustment
From the SETUP screen ( Other), say
or select Clock Adjustment and the
following screen appears:
This screen allows y ou to set or adjust
the following:
 Auto Daylight (Default = ON)
 Auto Time Zone (Default = ON)
 DST (Daylight Savings Time) Selection (change DST schedule)
 Time Adjustment (adjust your clock)
 RESET (resets this screen’s settings to factory defaults)
2009 Pilot

94Navigation System
System Setup
Auto Daylight
Sets automatic daylight savings time
ON or OFF . If set to ON, the 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
savings time is not used, then you may
want to turn this feature off.
NOTE:
If you set Auto Daylight to ON, the Auto
Daylight function is activated even in an
area that does not use daylight savings
time.
The federal government has mandated
that, starting in 2007, daylight savings
time will begin in March and end in
November instead of the old schedule
from April to October. The new
schedule is subject to review and
possible cancellation in 2008. 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
savings time schedule.
NOTE:
The automatic clock setting feature
relies on a satellite signal. It will not
work correctly in Hawaii and Alaska.
Auto Time Zone
Sets automatic time zone selection by
GPS to ON or OFF . If you are driving
across the country and passing through
time zones, then this feature will
automatically set the time to the time
zone you are traveling through.
However, if you live and work in two
different time zones, you may want to
turn this feature off.
NOTE:
When driving near a time zone
boundary, the displa yed time zone may
fluctuate between the two zone times.

96Navigation System
System Setup
After you have traveled approximately
1/2 mile away from a mapped road, the
system will display a series of white
dots on the map screen to show the path
you have traveled. This is provided so
you can follow the dots to backtrack to
the mapped road you originally left.
Tracking continues until you reach a
mapped road. See Off-road Tracking on
page62.
Tracking is shown only in the 1/20, 1/8,
1/4, and 1/2 mile, or the 80, 200, 400,
and 800 meter scales. Rotate the
Interface Dial knob to change the
scales if necessary.
NOTE:
To clear existing dots, turn this feature
off and exit SETUP. To re-enable this
feature, return to SETUP and turn it on
again.Correct Vehicle Position
The system relies on satellites for
positioning information. Buildings,
tunnels, and other objects can block or
reflect these signals, requiring the
system to use “dead reckoning” to
determine your location and direction.
This can sometimes lead to small errors
in positioning, such as showing you on
an adjacent street.
NOTE:
Using this function to adjust vehicle
position is not recommended. When the
system acquires a GPS signal, it will
automatically place the vehicle in the
correct location.
If you choose to do this, follow these
steps:
1. Stop the vehicle. 2. Select
Correct Vehicle Position ,
and the system will display a map
adjustment screen.
3. Use the Interface Dial to move the
vehicle position arrowhead to the
correct location, and push in on the
Interface Dial . The display will
change to:

 To allow the sunlight sensor to function properly, avoid blocking the sensor with loose articles (see the vehicle Owner’s manual for location of sensor).
 Remember that once the Display Mode button is selected, the other display mode controls are overridden until the
vehicle is restarted.
NOTE:
Loose articles in the center dash can block or interfere with the operation of the sunlight sensor. See the vehicle Owner’s man ual
for additional information regardin g the dash brightness adjustment.
