Navigation System23Getting Started
FM TrafficThe navigation screen can display
continuously updated traffic
information when available, including
flow (traffic speed), incidents, and
construction on freeways in major metro
areas.
The display of traffic flow and incidents
on the map screen is optional and can
be turned On/Off by selecting the
“Traffic” icon on th e Icon bar (see
Showing Icons on the Map on page 59).The current metropolitan areas that have
traffic coverage can be seen on
page 140. For more current metro
coverage information, go to
http://
automobiles.honda.com/traffic . This
link offers the following:
• The latest list of metro areas that have FM Traffic coverage
• Detailed coverage information for each metro area showing what roads
have traffic speed, traffic icons, or
both
• An FM Traffic demonstration
• Frequently asked questions (FAQs)
NOTE:
FM Traffic relies on a clear FM signal
and available traffic-broadcasting
station.
You must be in or near a traffic-enabled
city to receive coverage for that area.
FM Traffic is available in the lower 48
states and Hawaii.
Traffic Status IndicatorYou can confirm the reception status of
traffic information (traffic flow and
incidents). The “TRF” icon indicates the
following status:
NOTE:
• Traffic information can be turned on or off. See Showing Icons on the Map
on page 59.
• Traffic information can be displayed on the 5 miles (8 km) or less map
scale.

24
Navigation System
Getting StartedViewing Flow DataTraffic flow data is displayed as colored
bands on either side of the freeway (see
Traffic Display Legend on page 22).
The different colored bands represent
the average road speeds as determined
by under-road sensors and other probes.
While driving to your destination on a
road that has traffic flow data, your
route line color is used to display the
traffic flow data. This means that when
the map scale is set to one of the traffic
scales (1/20 through 5 mile scale), your
blue route line may appear as alternating
orange or red segments (see Traffic
Display Legend on page 22).
NOTE:
A blue route line segment on a freeway
can mean one of two things:
• Under-road sensors, GPS probes, cell
phone probes, and other methods
used to collect traffic speed
information.
• The road has no sensors, and traffic conditions are unknown (they could
be congested). Naturally, only roads with these sensors
will show traffic information. The
amount of flow data varies considerably
from one city to another. This map
display is refreshed continuously. You
can only view traffic information in the
city where you are located.
NOTE:
• Traffic flow and incident icons are
displayed on the 5 miles (8 km) or
less map scale.
• Not all freeways within a metropolitan area have traffic flow
data (colored bands on the side of the
freeways) - this is normal, and you
cannot assume that a lack of data
implies no traffic.
• Not all cities have traffic flow information. See cities listed on
page 140.
• Due to freeway maintenance and construction, tra ffic flow may be
available only for one side of a road,
or be missing entirely for some
portion of the freeway. • The displayed traffic flow may
conflict with other au dio- or Internet-
based traffic information.
• If traffic flow is not showing, verify
that the “TRAFFIC” selection for the
Icon Bar is ON, and that the icon
options for traffic are both ON (see
page 59).
