• If the situation persists, see your Acura dealer for assistance.• AcuraLink relies on a satellite signal and is not available in Alaska, Hawaii, Canada, and Puerto Rico.
The navigation system sometimes provides a detour route when I am drivi
ng a route on the freeway.
If Traffic Rerouting
is set to
ON
, the navigation system provides a detour route to
your destination only if it can find a signific
antly faster route than the original one.
2Traffic Rerouting
P. 52
The navigation system routes me to an exit and an alternate freeway with unknown flow speeds or surface streets.
The navigation system predicts which ro
ute should be faster based on freeway
congestion along your route. Use your own experience to determine whether the alternate route would be faster.
How can I ignore the detour route and return to the original route?

The vehicle position icon on the map “lags” a short distance behind, especially when I arrive at an intersection.
This is normal. The navigation system is unaware of the width of intersections. Large differences in vehicle position can indicate a temporary loss of the GPS signal. 2GPS System

The screen is showing white dots as I drive along.
These dots are called “breadcrumbs.” These are displayed if
Off-road Tracking
is set
to ON
and you drive more than 1/2 mile off mapped roads.

How do I remove the white dots (“breadcrumbs”) from my screen?

A road that I selected to avoid is being used when routing.
When you “draw” your area to avoid, make
sure to select sections of roads that
include at least one intersection. 2Avoiding Streets
P. 122
My elevation (shown when I display the current position) seems to fluctuate even though my elevation has not changed.
This is normal. The elevation can vary
±100 feet due to GPS calculation errors.
2GPS System
P. 224
My elevation is missing on the “current position” screen.
The elevation is only displayed if the GPS antenna can receive signals from at least four satellites. Try moving the vehicle into an open area. The elevation is also not displayed if the calculated elevation is zero or below sea level.

222Reference Information
System InitializationThe navigation system must be initialized if power to the navigation system is interrupted for any reason (e.g., the battery was disconnected).Entering the Security CodeWhen you purchased the vehicle, you should have received a card with the navigation system security code and serial number. Keep this card in a safe place. If you lose the card, you must obtain the security code from your dealer. 1.Press the VOLUME button to activate the audio system.2.Enter the 5-digit security code
when
prompted using the radio
preset buttons.
Acquiring GPS InformationDepending on the length of time the power was interrupted, your system may require GPS initialization. If initialization is not necessary, the system proceeds directly to the Startup Confirmation screen. If the system fails to locate a sufficient number of satellites to locate your
position
within 10 minutes, the following
screen is displayed.

reception problems:

224Reference Information
System LimitationsGPS SystemThe signals received from the GPS
satellites
are extremely weak (less than a
millionth of the strength of a local FM
station) and require an unobstructed view of sky. The GPS antenna is located in the dashboard.
The signal reception can
easily be
interrupted or interfered with by
the following:
•Metallic window tint on the front or side windows•Cell phones, PDAs, or other electronic devices docked in a cradle or lying loose on the dashboard•Remote starters or “hidden” vehicle tracking systems mounted near the navigation unit•Audio electronic devices mounted near the navigation unit•Trees, tall buildings, freeway overpasses, tunnels, or overhead electrical power wiresThe GPS is operated by the U.S. Department of Defense. For security reasons, there are certain inaccuracies built into the GPS for wh
ich the navigation
system must constantly compensate. This
can cause occasional positioning errors of up to several hundred feet.Address CalculationThe destination icon shows only the approximate location of a destination address. This occurs if the number of possible addresses is different from the number of actual addresses on a block. e.g., the address 1425 on a 1400 block with 100 possible addresses (because it is followed by the 1500 block) will be
shown
a quarter of the way down the
block by
the system. If there are only 25
actual addresses on the block, the actual
location of address 1425 would be at the end of the block.
DatabaseThe digitized map database reflects conditions as they existed at various points in time before production. Accordingly, your database may contain inaccurate or incomplete data or information due to the passage of time, road construction, changing conditions, or other causes. For example, some places/landmarks may be missing when you search the database because the name was misspelled, the place was improperly categorized, or a place/landmark is not yet in the database. This is also true for police stations, hospitals, and other public institutions.
Do
not rely on the navigation system if
you
need law enforcement or hospital
services.
Always check with local
information sources.
