Map, Voice, Entering Destinations
ProblemSolution
The Startup Confirmation screen is displayed every
time I start the car.This is normal. The Startup Confirmation screen reminds you and your guest drivers to
always operate the navigation system in a safe manner. The Startup Confirmation
screen goes off after a certain period of time and the top screen of the last mode is
displayed.
The navigation system reboots by itself (returns to the
opening screen).A reboot can be caused by extreme temper atures or shock from bumpy roads, and
does not necessarily indicate a problem. If this happens frequently, please see a dealer.
How do I specify a destination when an entered city or
street could not be found?• Try entering the street first. Some cities are lumped in with a major metro area. In
rural “unverified” areas or new subdivisions, streets may be missing or only partially
numbered.
• Try selecting the destinati on directly from the map.
2Map Input P. 103
Why do some letters become grayed out when I enter
an address?As you enter each letter in an address or a place/landmark, the navigation system
looks in the database to see what letters are possible and grays out letters that do not
apply.
How do I delete Personal Addresses, Previous
Destinations, or the Home Address?1. Press the SETTINGS button. Select Navi Settings > Personal Info to display the
types of information.
2. Select the type of address to delete.
3. Select Delete .
I cannot hear the navigation system voice.1.Press the SETTINGS button. Select System Settings and check that Volume is not
set to 0 .
2. Select Voice Rec. and set Voice Prompt to On.

recognizing my voice commands.• Check that the vents are not blowing air onto the microphone on the ceiling, the
vehicle is as quiet as possible, and you are using the correct command when
speaking.

Troubleshooting
I cannot select an option using the Interface Dial.To reduce potential driver distraction, ce rtain onscreen functions and features are
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.
The screen is bright when I drive at night.1. Check that the nighttime dashboard brig htness control is not set to maximum.
2. Press the SETTINGS button. Select Navi Settings > Map > Color (Night) . Set the
Night color to Black for the best contrast.

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 tra ffic flow on the Navi Settings.
2Showing Icons on Map P. 67
• 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.
2Honda Automobile Customer Service Contact Information P. 294
• 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. 53
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.

Guidance, Routing
ProblemSolution
The navigation system does not route me the same
way I would go or the same way as other mapping
systems.The navigation system attempts to generate the optimal route. You can change the
route preferences used when calculating a route.
2Route Preference P. 50
The navigation system wants to route me around
potential traffic problems. How do I stop these pop-up
messages?Press the SETTINGS button. Select Navi Settings > Routing , and set Traffic
Rerouting to Off .
2Traffic Rerouting P. 53
The street I’m on is not shown on the map screen.The mapping database is constantly undergoing revision. You can access the most
recent information on the internet.
2Map Coverage P. 295
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.
2 GPS System P. 292
The blue highlighted route and voice guidance
stopped or turned into a blue/pink line before I got to
my destination.Your route has entered an unverified area.
2Unverified Routing P. 51
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.
