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
In most cases, you do not need to enter a
security code. Follow the steps to reactivate
the system.
1. Set the power mode to ON, and turn on
the audio system.
2. Press and hold the (Power) button for
more than two seconds.
u 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,
you must go to a dealer and have the
system checked.
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.
If you are experiencing GPS reception

System Limitations
GPS
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 windows
• Mobile phones, PDAs, or other electronic devices docked in a cradle or lying loose
on the dashboard
• Remote starters or “hidden” vehicle tracking systems mounted near the
navigation unit
• Audio electronic devices mounted near the navigation unit
• Trees, tall buildin gs, freeway/highway
overpasses, tunnels, or overhead
electrical power wires
GPS is operated by the U.S. Department of
Defense. For security reasons, there are
certain inaccuracies bui lt into GPS for which
the navigation system must constantly
compensate. This can cause occasional positioning errors of up to several hundred
feet or tens of meters.
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 stat ions, hospitals, and
other public institutions. Do not rely on the
navigation system if you need law
enforcement or hospital services. Always
check with local information sources.
In addition, the map database contains
verified and unverifie d areas. Unverified
streets may be missing from the map, in the
wrong location, or have an incorrect name
or address range. A message will warn you
if your route includes unverified streets.
Exercise additional caution when driving in
unverified areas.

uuSystem Limitations uDatabase
Reference Information
The database does not include, analyze,
process, consider, or reflect any of the
following categories of information:
• Neighborhood quality or safety
• Population density
• Availability or proximity of law
enforcement
• Emergency, rescue, medical, or other assistance
• Construction work, zones, or hazards
• Road and lane closures
• Legal restrictions (such as vehicular type, weight, load, height, and speed
restrictions)
• Road slope or grade
• Bridge height, width, weight, or other
limits
• Traffic facilities safety
• Special events
• Pavement characteristics or conditions
Every effort has been made to verify that
the database is accurate. The number of
inaccuracies you experience increases the
longer you go without obtaining an
updated map database.

6. SOFTWARE Updates. The SOFTWARE and
SERVICES may be updated when your
VEHICLE is serviced by a DEALER or
remotely, over-the-ai r, by HONDA from
time to time; such updates may occur with
or without further notice or your future
consent. The SOFTWARE may be updated at
HONDA’s discretion and for any purpose
including, without limitation, to patch or
otherwise improve the SOFTWARE or
SERVICES functionality, security, or stability.
All updates to the SOFTWARE and
SERVICES are subject to this AGREEMENT
and any other applicable HONDA TERMS
and PROVIDER TERMS.
7. Uninstalling, Removing, and Replacing
the SOFTWARE. Replacing SOFTWARE or
HONDA SERVICES with software or
firmware not provided and installed by
HONDA or a DEALER will render all
representations and warranties for the
SOFTWARE, HONDA SERVICES, and
VEHICLE functionality reliant upon the
SOFTWARE or HONDA SERVICES null and
void. D. SOFTWARE Operational Notices and
Warnings
1.
Vehicle Geolocation Information. You
acknowledge that your VEHICLE may be
equipped with certain traffic and map
features. The traffic feature will
automatically collect and transmit, through
GPS technology, your Vehicle’s current
location (longitude and latitude), travel
direction and speed (“VEHICLE
GEOLOCATION INFORMATION”) to
HONDA and PROVIDERS. The VEHICLE
GEOLOCATION INFORMATION is used by
HONDA and PROVIDERS to provide traffic
and navigation-related information to you,
but may also be used to provide other
SERVICES or offers to you. HONDA will not
use such VEHICLE GEOLOCATION
INFORMATION for its own marketing
efforts, or provide such information to
unaffiliated third parties for their own
purposes, without your express consent.
2. Potential Map Inaccuracy and Route
Safety. Maps used by this system may be
inaccurate because of changes in roads,
traffic controls, rout ing, or driving
conditions. Always use good judgment and common sense when following suggested
routes. Do not follow the route suggestions
if doing so would result in an unsafe or
illegal driving maneuver, if you would be
placed in an unsafe situation, or if you
would be directed into an area that you
consider unsafe. Do not rely on any
navigation features included in the system
to route you to emergency services. Not all
emergency services such as police, fire
stations, hospitals, or clinics are likely to be
contained in the map database for such
navigation features. Ask local authorities or
an emergency services operator for such
locations and routes. The driver is ultimately
responsible for the safe operation of the
vehicle and therefor
e, must evaluate
whether it is safe to follow the suggested
directions. Any navigation features are
provided only as an aid. Make your driving
decisions based on your observations of
local conditions and existing traffic
regulations. Navigation features are not a
substitute for your personal judgment. Any
route suggestions made by the SOFTWARE
or SERVICES should never replace any local
traffic regulations or your personal
judgment or knowledge of safe driving
practices.
