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.
2.Press and hold the audio system power
button for more than two seconds.
u The system is reac tivate
d 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. Enter
the security code.
u If you do not enter the security code
cor
rectly after 10 tries, leave the
system for one hour before trying
again, or visit a dealer to have the
system reset.
In the U.S., you can register the security
co de

on Honda Owners
( owners.honda.com ). To find information
on how to retrieve the serial number and
obtain the code, visit 
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 St

artup
Confirmation screen.
If the system fails to locate a sufficient
num
ber of satellites to locate your position
within 10 minutes, th e following screen is
displayed.

Reference Information
System Limitations
GPS System
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 the 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 wind ows
•

Cell phones, PDAs, or other electronic
de

vices docked in a cradle or lying loose
on the dashboard
• Remote starters or “hidden” vehicle tracking system s

mounted near the
navigation unit
• Audio electronic devices mounted near the nav i

gation unit
• Trees, tall buildings , freeway overpasse
s,
tunnels, or overhead electrical power
wires
The GPS is operated by the U.S. Department
of Def ense. For

security reasons, there are
certain inaccuracies bu ilt into the GPS for
which the navigation system must
constantly compensate. This can cause occasional positioning errors of up to
several hundred feet.
Address Calculation
The 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 addr
esses on a block. For
example, 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.
Database
The 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 st ations, hospitals, and
other public institutions. Do not rely on the
navigation system if you need law
enforcement or hospital services. Always
check with local in formation sources.
