Navigation System
Accord 2D4D_KA 31TA5840
IntroductionManual OverviewThe manual is divided into the
following sections:
 Getting Started - A basic introduction that discusses the co ntrols and how to
communicate with the system.
 Entering a Destination - How to enter an address or locate a point of interest
(POI).
 Driving to Your Destination - An explanation of the map features,
guidance, and cautions.
 Information Features - Cellular Phone, Trip Computer, Calendar,
Calculator, Voice Command Help,
Map Legend, and Key to Zagat
Ratings.
 System Setup - How to set up and tailor the system for your personal
use and use the Address Book. The back of this manual contains:
 Map Coverage (page
112)
 Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs) (page 128)
 Troubleshooting Guide (page 135)
 Glossary of Terms (page 137)
 Voice Command List (page 140)
 Operation Specific to Alaska and Hawaii (page 126)
System OverviewYour navigation system is a highly
sophisticated location system with voice
control that uses satellites and a map
database to show you where you are and
to help guide you to a desired
destination.
The navigation system receives signals
from the global positioning system
(GPS), a network of 24 satellites in orbit
around the earth. By receiving signals
from several of these satellites, the
navigation system can determine the
latitude, longitude, and elevation of
your vehicle. In addition, a gyroscopic
yaw sensor and a vehicle speed sensor
in your vehicle keep track of the
direction and speed of travel at all times.
This vehicle’s navigation display, if so
equipped, includes mercury-containing
components. Upon removal, please
reuse, recycle, or dispose of as
hazardous waste. NOTICE

Navigation System5
Accord 2D4D_KA 31TA5840
Introduction
The navigation system applies location,
direction, and speed information to the
maps and calculates a route to the
destination you enter. As you drive to
that destination, the system provides
map and voice guidance.
The navigation system is easy to use.
The locations of many places of
business and entertainment are already
entered in the system. You can select
any of them as a des tination by using the
Interface Dial or voice control.
There are several ways to enter a
destination, such as by point of interest
(POI), by address, by phone number,
and by selecting it from the map. The
last 50 destinations are saved for reuse
at a later date. The system also allows
you to store a home address to simplify
returning home from your destination.
Accessories PrecautionsIf you have rear window tinting
installed, be aware that if the tint has
metallic properties, it can seriously
degrade or prevent GPS reception. This
is because the GPS antenna is located on
the passenger's side of the rear shelf.
If you plan to install electronic
components, such as radar detectors,
vehicle tracking devices, remote
starters, additional amplifiers, or other
audio components, ensure that they are
not located near the navigation control
unit in the trunk, near the navigation
display in the dash, or near the GPS
antenna on the passenger's side of the
rear shelf. Signal noise emanating from
these devices can cause intermittent
disruption of the navigation system.
Important Safety InformationThe navigation system can distract your
attention from the road if you focus on
the screen or operate the system’s
controls while driving.
Enter as much information as possible
into the system before you begin
driving, or when the vehicle is stopped.
Then, as you drive, listen to the audio
instructions and use voice commands
when possible.

Navigation System
Accord 2D4D_KA 31TA5840
While driving, do not look at the screen
or operate the system controls for more
than a second or so at a time, and only
after deciding you can do so safely. Pull
to the side of the ro ad if you need more
time to look at the screen or operate the
controls. The navigation system is designed to
provide route information to help you
reach your destinatio
n. However, this
route guidance may sometimes conflict
with current road conditions such as
street closures, road construction,
detours, and out-of-date map data.
Additionally, the system itself has
certain limitations (see page 105).
Therefore, you must verify the audio
and visual route information provided
by the system by carefully observing the
roadway, signs and signals, etc. If you
are unsure, proceed with caution.
Always use your own good judgment,
and obey traffic laws while driving.
Map OverviewCurrent StreetThe current street on which your vehicle
is located appears at the bottom of the
map screen (see page 19). A message
saying “Not on a digitized road” may
appear instead when you drive half a
mile away from a mapped road. For
more details, see Off-road Tracking on
page 62.Verified/Unverified StreetYour navigation system has two kinds
of streets: verified (dark colored) and
unverified (light colored). The
differences between the two types of
streets are contrasted in the chart on
page 7.
Using the navigation system
while driving can take your
attention away from the road,
causing a crash in which you
could be seriously injured or
killed.
Only operate system controls
when the conditions permit you
to safely do so.

Accord 2D4D_KA 31TA5840
Introduction
Verified streets (dark colored) Unverified streets (light colored)
When
displayed These roads are found within metropolitan areas, and
include interstate freeways and major roads connecting
cities. These roads are found in rural areas, and typically include
residential streets away from the center of a town.
Street color Shown on daytime
map screen as black or red, such as
interstate freeways. Shown on the daytime
map screen as light brown.
Map quality The database vendor has verified these streets.
Information like turn rest
rictions, average speed, and
whether it is a one-way street have been gathered and
used when creating your route to a destination. These streets have not been verified by the database vendor.
The system does not contain in
formation on one-way streets,
turn restrictions, or the road’s average speed. They are shown
on the map for reference and may have errors in map location,
naming, and address range.
Routing
differences While driving to your destination, the displayed route
line is solid blue. The system provides voice and map
guidance to your destination. Your route line is either a blue dotted “vector line,” or a dashed
pink/blue line. For information on selecting this option, and the
routing differences, see
Unverified Area Routing on page87.
Cautions There are no pop-up boxes urging extra caution during
a route. However, because
roads constantly change,
you are urged to use common sense, and always obey
posted traffic restrictions. Regardless of whether the user chooses route guidance, there
are cautionary screens before and during the route urging the
user to be extra cautious, and obe
y all traffic restrictions. See
Unverified Area Routing on page87.
Guidance
voice Voice guidance issues instruct
ions such as “In a half-
mile, make a right turn.” The phrase “if possible” is added
to each guidance instruction.
For example: “In a half-mile, ma ke a right turn, if possible.”
Time and
distance
“to go” The time and distance “to go,”
displayed while en route
to a destination, is based on the average speed and
distance for the roads used for your route. Because the average speed of thes
e roads is not known, the time
and distance “to go” is based on a fixed average speed of
25 mph for these roads.
