2011 HONDA CIVIC HYBRID navigation

56Navigation System
Map Orientation
The map can be orientated two ways:
• North-up: North pointing up as you would normally view a paper map.
• Heading-up: The map constantly rotates so the road you are driving on
always points up (as you see the road
through your front windshield).
NOTE:
The red arrow in both heading symbols
always shows the direction north. Touch the Map Orientation icon on the
map
screen to switch between the
available orientation, or say “Display
heading up” or “Display north up.”
In the larger map scales (above
1 mile or 1.6 kilometer), the map is
always oriented with north facing
upward. You cannot change the
orientation.
NOTE:
For information on the available voice
commands, see Voice Command Index
on page 140.
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.”

Showing Icons on the Map
Touching the ICON button on the map
screen displays the following screen:
The screen consists of the following
items:
Icon Bar (row of icon symbols)
The icon bar allows you to manually
select the icons that are displayed on the
map (see page 57 for a list of these
icons). In the screen above, both gas
stations and restaurants are selected.
Touch the icons to select (goes blue) or
remove them (goes gray). You can also
display or hide the same icons by using
the “Display” or “Hide” voice
commands (see page 141).
Icon Options
This feature allows you to “fine tune”
some of the icons on the Icon bar (see
Icon Options for more information).
Guidance Mode
When en route, this item allows you to
select between a single-screen (with
occasional pop-up guidance windows),
or a split-screen (containing one-half
map and one-half guidance/directions
list window). See page 54 for an
explanation of this feature, and see
page 92 for Setup.
Exit Screen
Select Return to return to the map
screen.
Icon Options
Selecting Icon Options displays the
following screen:
This feature allows you to “fine tune”
some of the icons on the Icon bar. The
three icon choices – “Parking” (lot or
garage), “Restaurant” (specific type or
types of food), and “Other icons”
(hospitals, schools, etc.) – can each be
tailored to your needs.

60Navigation System
For instance, let’s assume that hospital
icons are not displayed on the map. You
would do the following:
• First, you would ensure that the OTHER ICON button on the Icon
bar is blue (see Icon Bar on page 59).
• Second, you select Icon Options
and verify that hospital option is also
on (blue). This procedure is explained
below.
If you select Other Icons from the
Select category for icon settings
screen, the other icons options are
displayed: In the previous example, POST
OFFICE
and SCHOOL are selected
and will show up on the map. To also
see HOSPITAL on the map, this would
need to be turned on to select it so it
appears as below.
Exit, and save your settings by selecting
Done . NOTE:
When viewing the
map screen, you
can turn some icons on using voice
control.
See Navigation Display Commands
on page 141 for the available
“Display” and “Hide” icon
command.

Navigation System61
Driving to Your Destination
Going Off the Route
If you leave the calculated route,
“Recalculating...” is displayed at the top
of the screen. The system will
recalculate the route from your current
location and direction to the desired
destination, and then give you a new
route instruction. This is done
automatically if you have set
Rerouting to Automatic on the
Setup screen (second) (see page 84).
If the Rerouting option in Setup is set
to Manual , “Off route” appears at the
top of the screen when you leave the
calculated route. Sa y “Recalculate” or
select Recalculation whenever you
wish the system to perform a
recalculation.
Off-road Tracking
If you drive more than half a mile from
a mapped road, “Not on a digitized
road” appears at the bottom of the
screen.
The map screen starts displaying a
series of dots (breadcrumbs) to show the
path you have taken if Off-road
Tracking on the Setup screen (second)
is set to On (see page 92). By following the dots, you can
backtrack to the mapped road you
originally left. “Breadcrumbs” may
occasionally be displayed in urban
areas, such as large parking lots in
shopping malls, or in new subdivisions
where the roads are not yet in the
database. In other cases, you may see
dots if the system temporarily goes off
route, like in a parking garage where the
GPS signal is unavailable.
These dots appear only in the 1/20, 1/8,
1/4, and 1/2 mile (or the 80, 200, 400,
and 800 meter) map scales.
Use the ZOOM
buttons to change scales
if necessary.
Tracking continues for approximately
150 miles; dots at the beginning of the
trail will start disappearing when you
exceed that distance . When you reach a
mapped road, th e system stops
displaying dots.

62Navigation System
Viewing/Saving the Current
Location
Whenever you are on a map screen, you
can always obtain your current location
either by touching the Vehicle Position
icon or by using the voice control
system and saying “Display current
location.” A screen pops up which
shows the address of your current
location, as well as the latitude,
longitude, and elevation. NOTE:
The elevation will not appear when the
system is temporarily lacking proper
GPS information. The system elevation
may not agree with elevations shown on
roadside elevation signs, and may
fluctuate plus or minus 100 feet or more.
You can store the current location for
later use. It does not change or cancel
your current route.
For example, you are following the
system’s directions to get to a
destination. While sitting at a stoplight
you notice a store on the corner, but do
not have time to visit it right now. You
can save the location to select as a
destination at a later date.To save the location, say “Save current
location” or select
Save on the screen.
When you select “User 1” or “User 2,”
the Edit address book screen with the
current location data will appear. You
can edit the name, phone number, or
category name to be saved in your
personal Address Book.
After the location is saved, select
Return to return to the map screen.
You can then use Address Book from
the Enter destination by screen to
select the saved location and return to
the same spot.
