Navigation System93
System Setup
For “Places Along the Route,” the
system looks in fron t of you 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.

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 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 schedule is subject to
review and possible cancellation in
2009-2010. 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.
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.

System Setup
Daylight Savings Time (DST)
Selection (Change DST
Schedule)
This option lets you select the schedule
(April-October or March-
November ) when daylight savings
time will automatically occur in your
navigation system. The system default is
the new 2007 March-November
schedule as mandated by the U.S.
government. During 2009-2010, it is
possible that this new change will be
canceled by the government and
returned back to the previous “April-
October” schedule. If so, simply change
the schedule in this setting back to the
“April-October” schedule.
Time Adjustment
Adjusts the current time in hours and
minutes. Switch HOUR and MINUTE
by moving the Interface Dial left or
right, and change the value by rotating
the Interface Dial knob . Selecting
DONE returns you to the previous
screen. You can reset the adjustment by
selecting RESET.
NOTE:
Selecting RESET also clears any
changes you made to “Auto Daylight,”
“Auto Time Zone,” or “DST Selection”
settings. Depending on your location,
you may need to adju st these settings.
Vehicle
From the SETUP screen ( Other), say
or select Vehicle and the following
screen appears:
Off-road Tracking
With this ON, the system will provide
white off-road tracking dots
(“breadcrumbs”) on the map screen
whenever you drive into an area where
the map does not show any roads. See
Map Screen Legend on page 19.
2011 Pilot
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
page 62.
Tracking is shown only in the 1/20, 1/8,
1/4, and 1/2 mile scales, 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:

System Initialization
System Initialization
If for any reason you lose power to the
navigation system (e.g., the battery was
disconnected), the navigation system
will require initialization. Once
completed, your system will be ready to
use.
This initialization requires the
following:
• Entry of the 4-digit anti-theft security code.
• GPS initialization (may not be needed depending on the length of time the
system was without power).
• Map matching to align the GPS coordinates to a place on the map
(displays current street at the bottom
of the map).
Entering the Security Code
If the battery goes dead or is
disconnected for any reason, you will
have to enter a secur ity code for both the
audio system and the navigation system
before you can use it again.
When you purchased the vehicle, you
should have received two cards
containing the audio and navigation
system’s security codes and serial
numbers. Keep these cards in a safe
place in case you need the codes. If you
lose the cards, you must obtain the
security codes from your dealer. Enter the four-digit s
ecurity code. If you
have entered it corr ectly, the display
changes to the Disclaimer screen. If
you make a mistake, the system will
display “INCORRECT PIN.” Re-enter
your 4-digit security code. You have ten
chances to enter the correct code. If all
ten are incorrect, tu rn the ignition to
OFF, then back to ON (II) to have ten
more chances to enter the correct code.
Follow the instructions in your Owner’s
Manual to enter the 5-digit audio code.
The navigation voice will not operate if
the audio code is not entered.
NOTE:
The anti-theft security code is unrelated
to your optional navigation system PIN
(for Personal or Home Address).

Database Limitations
You will find that some points of
interest (POI) may be missing when you
search the database. This can be caused
if at the time the database was gathered,
the name was misspelled, the place was
improperly categorized, or the POI
change is not yet in the database. This
means you may not find places listed
that you know exist. This is also true for
police agencies and hospitals. In
outlying areas, facilities listed may not
be the closest. Always check with local
information sources if you need law
enforcement or hospital services.
Every effort has been made to verify
that the system’s database was accurate
at the time it was created. However,
businesses do close or relocate, and new
businesses start in the old locations. For
this reason, you may occasionally find
inaccurate information when you select
and drive to a point of interest (for
example, a restaurant is now a jewelry
store). The number of these inaccuracies
increases the longer you go without an
update. The digitized map database reflects
conditions as they existed at various
points in time before production.
Accordingly, your
DVD may contain
inaccurate or incomplete data or
information due to the passage of time,
road construction, changing conditions,
or other causes.
Due to ongoing software and database
improvements, navigation disc versions
may change in the middle of a
production year. The version shipped
with your vehicle was the most recent
available at the time of production and
is considered standard equipment for
that vehicle. There is no free program to
retrofit early production vehicles with
the latest disc. For DVD ordering
information, see page 109. In addition, this database does not
include, analyze, proc
ess, consider, or
reflect any of the following categories
of information:
• Neighborhood quality or safety
• Population density
• Availability or proximity of law enforcement
• Emergency, rescue, medical, or other assistance
• Construction work, zones, or hazards
• Road and lane closures
• Legal restrictions (such as vehicular type, weight, load, height, and speed
restrictions)
• Road slope or grade
• Bridge height, width, weight, or other limits
