limited or inoperable while the vehicle is moving. Use voice commands or pull over to
proceed.
The navigation system pronunciation of street names
in the guidance command or destination address
sounds strange.The basic guidance phrases use a studio- recorded voice, but street names are
pronounced using a machine-generated voice. Consequently, the name may be
mispronounced or sound strange at times.

Traffic
ProblemSolution
My FM Traffic is missing or is not displaying properly.
What is wrong?Verify the following:
• FM Traffic relies on a clear FM signal. If signal strength is low, traffic data may not
be available.
• Check the traffic icons and tr affic flow in Navi Settings.
2Showing Icons on Map P. 51
• It is possible that there is a temporary technical problem with your metropolitan
area traffic.
You can call Honda Automobile Customer Service to see if there is an outrage.

• If the situation persists, see your Honda dealer for assistance.
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 pr ovides a detour route to
your destination only if it can find a signific antly faster route than the original one.
2Traffic Rerouting P. 38
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?Press the SETTINGS button. Select Navi Settings > Routing , and set Traffic
Rerouting to Off.

The vehicle position icon is not following the road and
the “GPS icon” text in th e upper left hand corner of
the screen is white or missing.• Check that the GPS antenna (located in the dashboard) is not blocked. For best reception, remove items from the dashboard, such as radar detectors, cell phones,
or loose articles.
• Metallic tinting or other aftermarket devi ces can interfere with the GPS reception.
Please consult a dealer.

The blue highlighted route and voice guidance
stopped or turned into a blue/pink line before I got to

2Unverified Routing P. 36
How do I stop the map from rotating as I drive along?Press the SETTINGS button. Select Navi Settings > Map > View > North-Up , or say
d “Display north-up” to change the map orientation.
The “time to destination” display sometimes increases
even though I am getting closer to my destination.If your speed reduces due to slower traffic, the navigation system updates the “time to
destination” based on your actual road speed to give you a better estimate of arrival
time.
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 un aware of the width of intersections. Large
differences in vehicle position can indicate a temporary loss of the GPS signal.

include at least one intersection.
2Avoiding Area P. 114
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. 130
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.

Reference Information
System Initialization
The 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 Code
Find the navigation system’s security code
and serial number label in your Owner’s
Manual kit. Do not store the label in your
vehicle. If you lose the label, you must first
retrieve the serial number, and then obtain
the code. You can find out about your
serial number and security code from a
dealer.
1. Set the power mode to ON, and turn on
the audio system.
If you set the power mode to
ACCESSORY, you will be requested
to enter the security code. See step 3.
2. Press and hold the PWR 9 (Power)
button for more th an two seconds.
The system is reactivated when the
system’s control unit recognizes that
the system is in your vehicle.
If the control unit fails to recognize,
“ENTER CODE” appears on the
navigation screen.
3. If necessary, enter the security code.
If you do not enter the security code
correctly after 10 tries, leave the
system for one hour before trying
again, or visit a dealer to have the
system reset.
NOTE:
In the U.S. you can register the security
code at Owner Link (owners.honda.com.),
and find information on how to retrieve
the serial number and obtain the code at
radio-navicode.honda.com .
Acquiring GPS Information
Depending 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.

Startup Confirmation
Screen
The Startup Confirmation screen is
displayed when initialization has
successfully completed. It is displayed every
time you start your vehicle. Press u to
select OK to continue.
Map Matching
Map matching is the process of using the
acquired GPS information to locate your
position on the map screen. If you are on a
mapped road, the name of the road is
displayed along the bottom of the map
screen when map matching is completed.
Do not enter a destination until the road
name is displayed.
The system may initially show your location
on a different street (e.g., in urban areas
where streets are close together), may
show an incorrect elevation, or may delay
the display of the vehicle position icon at
intersections. This is normal; the system
will correct itself while you drive.
