Coverage Areas
Operation in Alaska, Hawaii,
Canada, and Puerto RicoCertain functions that rely on a satellite
signal will not work correctly. These
functions include but are not limited to
AcuraLink, and traffic- and weather-
related services.XM RadioNavigation-equipped vehicles delivered
to Alaska, Hawaii, Canada, and Puerto
Rico are equipped with XM hardware,
but XM broadcasting is not available;
therefore sections of the manual that
mention XM audio, traffic displays,
weather 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.
Alaska, Hawaii, Canada, and
Puerto RicoThis section describes the differences in
navigation system operation for vehicles
delivered in Alaska, Hawaii, Canada,
and Puerto Rico.Map CoverageAll roads displayed on the map screens
are detailed coverage roads. Text related
to “unverified” roads or areas are not
applicable. The following topics do not
apply:
Unverified road descriptions (see page 6, 106)

Setup entries that relate to turning on or off unverified routing (see
page 106)
See the coverage section for a list of islands with coverage (see page 134)
Address and POI Entry ScreensThe following differences occur for
map, address, and POI selection:
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.Setup Screen DifferencesThe SETUP screen differences are

Setup section (page 94) for additional
information.AcuraLink/MessagesThis item is grayed out on the SETUP
