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
(blue). If OK is selected on the
Disclaimer screen, the functions in the
yellow segments of the diagram become
available in the SETUP and INFO
screens. The white segments of the
diagram are available anytime, even if
you do not select OK.
The items above the map screen show
various methods to begin driving to
your destination (orange). You are
provided with map/voice guidance,
routing cautions, and a direction list.
While driving to your destination, use
the voice control system as much as
possible to interact with the navigation,
audio, and climat e control systems
(green).

System Setup
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)
Auto Daylight
Sets automatic daylight savings time
ON or OFF . If set to ON , the clock will
automatically “spring ahead” or “fall
back” 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 ac tivated even in an
area that does not use daylight savings
time.
The federal government mandated that
starting in 2007, daylight savings time
begins in March and ends in November
instead of the old schedule from April to
October. The schedu le is subject to
review and possible cancellation in
2010-2011. 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 in Hawaii and Alaska.

Navigation System117
System Setup
NOTE:
The rearview camera has a special
lens that makes distances appear
closer than they actually are.
The rearview camera display has a limited range, and the size and
position of objects around the area
may appear different from reality.
Make sure to check the surrounding
area carefully.
Tip:
To make guidelines disappear, press
and hold the CANCEL button for three
seconds.Rearview Camera Brightness
Adjustment
When in reverse, the navigation “hard”
buttons are locked out, except the
rotating portion of the Interface Dial
(knob ). Rotate the knob clockwise to
make the camera image brighter, and
counterclockwise to darken the image.
This brightness adjustment is
independent of the screen brightness
adjustment in SETUP.
NOTE:
The camera brightness cannot be adjusted by voice control.
Slight delays can occur when switching to the ca mera image, or
switching back to the map/menu
screen. This is normal.

Navigation System143
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 AcuraLink, NavTraffic,
Weather, 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 vehicles delivered to Hawaii
are equipped with XM hardware, but
XM broadcasting is not available;
therefore sections of the manual that
mention XM audio, traffic displays,
weaher information, and AcuraLink
features 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 101).
• Cautions and pop-up windows related to unverified roads (see page 71). • Setup entries that relate to turning on
or off unverified routing (see
page 102).
• 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 128).
• The map scale “traffic” indicator, shown beneath the map scale bar,
may show at vehicle start but
disappear later. This is normal.
• Freeway Exit information does not exist in Hawaii, so the “Freeway Exit
Info” icon is not shown on the icon
bar.
Coverage Areas

144Navigation System
Coverage Areas
Address and POI Entry Screens
When in Hawaii, the following
differences occur for map, address, and
POI selection:
• It is not possible to enter U.S. mainland addresses or scroll the map
east to the U.S. mainland.
• Selection of the “State” is confined to the state of Hawaii only.
• Entry of a destination address or POI on an island other than your current
island may result in a screen caution
message. This is normal because
there are no “ferry” routes between
islands available in the database.
• If the “Guidance Prompts” setting on the SETUP screen ( Main Setup) is
set to normal or maximum, street
names will not be spoken in voice
guidance commands.
Setup Screen Differences
The SETUP screen differences are
minor and are listed below. See the
Setup section (page 91) for additional
information.
Routing and Guidance (Unverified
Area Routing On/Off)
This feature is unavailable. All roads
displayed on the map are verified.
Clock Adjust Screen
There is no daylight saving time for
Hawaii. Auto Daylight , Auto Time
Zone , and DST Selection will not be
shown on the Clock adjustment
screen. To test your adjustment, use the
voice control system, and say “What
time is it?” (see page 109).
AcuraLink/Messages
This item is not shown on the Hawaii
SETUP screen ( Other) because XM is
not available.
Traffic & Weather Status
This item is not shown on the Hawaii
SETUP screen ( Other) because XM is
not available.
Information Screen Differences
Messages
The Information screen Messages
feature utilizes XM, and because XM is
not available, it is not shown on the
Hawaii Information screen. In addition,
the “Map menu” item New Messages
will appear grayed out. This is normal.
Vehicle generated AcuraLink messages
may display on the screen; however,
they may be inaccurate and should be
ignored.
Traffic Incidents
This item is not shown on the Hawaii
Information screen because XM is not
available.
Weather Information
This item is not shown on the Hawaii
Information screen because XM is not
available.

Frequently Asked Questions
Display, Accessories
Rear Camera
Miscellaneous Other Questions
ProblemSolution
The display appears dim when starting the car in really cold
weather. Is there a problem? No. This is normal, and it will become brighter after a few minutes.
Problem Solution
When I shift gears, the rear camera image is delayed. When shifting into or out of reverse, you may experience delays when the
screen image switches between the navigation screen and the rear camera
image. This is normal.
The rear camera image is too dark or too bright. How do I
adjust the brightness? While the camera image is displaye
d, use the rotating portion of the
Interface Dial (knob ) to adjust the brightness . This adjustment does not
affect the SETUP screen brightness adjustments.
Problem Solution
My clock frequently changes forward and backward by one
hour. Why is this? The clock is being automatically set ba
sed on your GPS location. If you live
and work on the boundary between two time zones, you can turn off this
feature. See page 110.
When driving near a time zone border, the time changes even
though I am not near the time zone. Why is this? The time zone borders are only appr
oximated in the system. Depending on
the geography of the time zone boundary, the switch to a different zone can
be erratic. See page 110.
My state does not observe dayl ight savings time. How do I
turn off this feature? You can turn off this feature. See page 109.
