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 133).
• The Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs) section (see page 126).
• The FAQs found on the online DVD order site (see “Obtaining a DVD”).
• For detailed questions regarding audio or other systems that interact
with the navigation system, see your
Owner’s Manual or the Technology
Reference Guide. • Call Honda Customer
Relations (see
“Honda Automobile Customer
Service” on page 107).
• For database or POI issues, follow the guidelines in the “Reporting Errors”
section (see page 107).
If your question is still unanswered and
you wish to visit the dealer, please be
prepared to demonstrate the issue to the
service advisor. This way, the service
advisor 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. For
example, they only occur when you
enter a specific address, or when driving
on a certain road, or just when it is cold.
This information is very useful to the
service advisor. Be patient, the service
advisor may be unfa miliar with your
specific issue.
Obtaining a Navigation
Update DVD
Honda is continua lly 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 DVD or a
replacement DVD, call the Honda
Navigation Disc Fulfillment Center at
(888) 291-4675. You can also order
online by going to
www.hondanavi.com.
NOTE:
• DVDs are not available at your dealer. However, the dealer may
order a DVD for you as a courtesy.
There is no program for free DVD
updates.
• The DVD order line staff cannot answer technical questions regarding
navigation operation, coverage, or
POIs.
• Purchasing used discs from alternate
sources or online auctions may cause
operational problems since they are
likely to be incom patible with your
current software.

Coverage Areas
Map Coverage
The system provides map coverage for
the following 48 U.S. states, Hawaii,
and southern Canada. The U.S. map
coverage consists of accurately mapped
(verified) metropolitan areas (in the
following list) and a less accurate
(unverified) rural database. Canada
coverage consists of major metropolitan
areas and major roads connecting the
metropolitan areas within about 100
miles north of the U.S. border. If you
need additional northern Canada
coverage, you may purchase the gray
Canadian DVD (see Obtaining a
Navigation Update DVD on page 108).
See Map Overview on page 6 for a
discussion of map coverage.
The cities and metropolitan areas in the
following list are fully mapped. Only
major streets, roads, and freeways have
been verified outside these areas. If your
route passes through these areas, routing
may be limited, depending on your
routing choices. See Unverified Area
Routing on page 87. If you desire additional map coverage
information, contact Honda Customer
Services or go to
www.hondanavi.com.
