Navigation System121
System Initialization
System Initialization
If for any reason you lose power to the
vehicle (e.g., the battery was
disconnected), the navigation system
will require initialization.
The navigation system supports a VIN-
recognition anti-theft system. If the
correct navigation system is installed in
the vehicle, you do not need to enter a
code as shown on the screen below.
If this screen appears, press and hold the
audio power button for two seconds to
resume system operation. The system
may need a few moments to reacquire
the GPS signal.
Entering the Security Code
If another system has been installed in
the vehicle, you will have to enter a
security code for the audio and
navigation system before you can use it
again.
When you purchased the vehicle, you
should have received one card
containing the navigation system’s
security code and serial number. Keep
this card in a safe place in case you need
the code. If you lose the card, you must
obtain the security code from your
dealer.
Enter the 5-digit security code in
accordance with the owner’s manual for
your vehicle. If you do not enter the
security code, the navigation and audio
voice will not function.
NOTE:
The anti-theft security code is unrelated
to your optional navigation system PIN
(for Address Book or Home Address).
GPS Initialization
Depending on the length of time the
battery was disconnected, your system
may require GPS initialization. If it
does, the following screen appears:
If this procedure is not necessary, the
system proceeds directly to the
Disclaimer screen (see page 18).
During initialization, the system
searches for all available GPS satellites
and obtains their orbital information.
During this procedure, the vehicle
should be out in the open with a clear
view of the sky.

Navigation System123
System Limitations
Also, depending on your current view of
the sky and the position of the satellites,
the elevation may be shown incorrectly.
You may also notice some delay of the
vehicle position icon at intersections;
this is normal.
GPS Reception Issues
The 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 signal can easily be
interrupted or interfered with by the
following:
• Aftermarket metallic window tint
above or to the sides of the GPS
antenna (located in the dashboard)
• 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 • Other aftermarket audio electronic
devices mounted near the navigation
unit
• Trees, tall buildings, freeway overpasses, tunnels, or overhead
electrical power wires
Although the system will direct you to
your desired destination, it may not
always generate what you consider to be
the most direct route. Try changing the
method of routing. See Changing the
Route Preference on page 53 . You may
also have Unverified Area Routing set
to OFF. See Unverified Area Routing on
page 101.
Additionally, the mapping database
contains verified and unverified maps.
See Map Overview on page 6 . A
Disclaimer screen will warn you if your
route includes unverified streets.
Unverified streets may be missing from
the map, in the wrong location, or have
an incorrect name or address range.
Exercise additional caution when
driving in these unverified areas. The destination icon 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) Since 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), the
address 1425 will be shown a quarter of
the way down the block by the system
instead of at the end of the block where
the destination is actually located.
You may find that the system
occasionally reboots. This is indicated
by the display returning to the
navigation system globe screen. A
reboot can be caused by a number of
things, such as extreme temperatures or
shock from bumpy roads. It does not
necessarily indicate a problem that
requires service. If this happens
frequently, please see your dealer.

Customer Assistance
Visiting Your Dealer
We strive to make this manual as
complete as possible and to answer all
questions regarding operation of the
system. Occasionally, you may run into
a specific issue that you cannot find in
the book. You may save yourself a trip
to the dealer by first consulting the
following resources:
• The Troubleshooting section (see
page 153 )
• The Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs) section (see page 146)
• The FAQs found on the online update order site (see “Obtaining a
Navigation Update”)
• For detailed questions regarding HFL, audio, or other systems that
interact with the navigation system,
see your Owner’s Manual, or the
Technology Reference Guide.
• For traffic-related issues, see the “FM Traffic” section (on page 23) and
FAQs (on page 146 ). • Call Honda Customer
Relations (see
“Honda Automobile Customer
Service” on page 126).
• For database or POI issues, follow the guidelines in the “Reporting Errors”
section (see page 126).
If your question is still unanswered and
you wish to visit the dealer, please be
prepared to demonstrate the issue to the
service technician. That way, the service
technician can document the issue for
the factory to allow more efficient
troubleshooting.
Some issues may at first seem random,
but you may notice a pattern, like they
only occur when yo u enter a specific
address, when driving on a certain road,
or just when it’s cold. This information
is very useful to the service technician.
Be patient, the service technician may
be unfamiliar with yo ur specific issue.
Obtaining a Navigation
Update
Honda is continually expanding the
scope of the navigation system.
Upgraded software may be made
available to navigation system owners
periodically, usually in the fall of each
year.
To purchase an updated, you will need
your vehicle’s VIN number and the
System/Device Information from the
INFO screen ( Other). Call the Honda
Navigation Center at (888) 291-4675.
You can also order online by going to
www.hondanavi.com.
NOTE:
• Updates are not available at your
dealer. However, the dealer may
order an update for you out of
courtesy. There is no program for
free updates.
• The update order line staff cannot answer technical questions regarding
navigation operation, coverage, or
POIs.

Frequently Asked Questions
Daylight saving time occurred, but the navigation system did
not change time even though SETUP shows Auto Daylight
is ON . The automatic daylight saving time feature does not work in regions where
the daylight saving time system is not adopted.
The navigation system automatic daylight time feature is not
switching the navigation system clock on the correct dates.
Why is this? 1) Go to the Clock adjustment
screen in SETUP and ensure that Auto
Daylight is ON .
2) The automatic daylight saving time feature does not work in regions
where the daylight saving time system is not adopted.
For more information, see page 114.
The navigation system clock switched by one hour for no
apparent reason. What can cause this? You may be driving near a time zone boundary (see
Auto Daylight on
page 114). See page 114 (Auto Time Zone) for more information.
My battery was disconnected or went dead, and the
navigation system is asking for a code. What do I do? The navigation system supports a VIN-recognition anti-theft system. If the
correct navigation system is installed in the vehicle, you do not need to enter
a code. Press and hold the audio power button for two seconds to resume
system operation. The system may n
eed a few moments to reacquire the
GPS signal.
If another system has been installed in the vehicle, you will need to enter the
5-digit security code.
There should be a card in the glove bo x that contains the 5-digit security
code. If you cannot find it, your dealer can help you out.
I speak a language other than English. Are there any other
languages available for the system? Besides English, you may select Français or Español for your language
setting.
