Traffic
ProblemSolution
Traffic information is missing or is not displaying
properly. What is wrong?Verify the following:●Traffic information relies on a clear signal. If signal strength is low, traffic data
may not be available.
●Check that the traffic icons are turned on.
2 Showing Icons on the 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 outage.
2 Honda Automobile Customer Service Contact Information P. 226●If the situation persists, see your Honda dealer for assistance.●Traffic information is available only in certain areas.
The navigation system sometimes provides a detour
route when I am driving a route on the freeway.If Traffic Rerouting is set to On, the navigation system provides a detour route
to your destination only if it can find a si gnificantly faster route than the original
one.
2 Traffic Rerouting P. 42
The navigation system routes me to an exit and an
alternate freeway with unknown flow speeds or
surface streets.The navigation system predicts which r oute should be faster based on freeway
congestion along your route. Use your ow n experience to determine whether the
alternate route would be faster.
How can I ignore the detour route and return to the
original route?Select HOME > Settings > Navigation > Routing tab, and set Traffic
Rerouting to Off .

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.
