2. Potential Map Inaccuracy and Route Safety. Maps used by this system may be inaccurate  because of changes in roads, traffic controls, 
routing, or driving conditions. Always use good judgment and co mmon sense when following suggested routes. Do not follow the route 
suggestions if doing so would result in an un safe or illegal driving maneuver, if you would be placed in an unsafe situation, o r 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 t o emergency 
services. Not all emergency services such as police, fire stations, hospitals, or clin ics 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 ve hicle and therefore, 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 obser vations of local conditions and  existing 
traffic regulations. Navigation features are  not a substitute for your personal judgmen t. Any route suggestions made by the SOFTWARE or 
SERVICES should never replace any local traffic regulations or yo ur personal judgment or knowledge of safe driving practices.
3.  Speech Recognition:
 You acknowledge and understand that HONDA and PROVIDERS may reco rd, retain, and use voices commands 
when you use the speech recognit ion components of the SOFTWARE  or SERVICES. You and all VEHICLE operators and passengers (a) 
consent to the recording and rete ntion of voice commands in support of providing speech recognition components and (b) release  HONDA 
and PROVIDERS from all claims, liabilities, an d losses that may result from any use of such recorded voice commands. Recognitio n errors 
are inherent in speech recognition. It is your responsibility  to monitor any speech recognition functions included in the syste m and address 
any errors. Neither HONDA nor PROVIDERS will  be liable for any damages arising out of errors in the speech recognition process.
4.  Distraction Hazards.
 Navigation features may require manua l (non-verbal) input or setup. Attempting to perform such set-up or insert 
data while driving can seriously distract your attention and could cause a crash or other serious consequences; the ability to  undertake such 
interactions may also be limited by state or local law, which la ws you are responsible to know and follow. Even occasional shor t scans of 
the screen may be hazardous if your attention has been diverted  away from your driving at a critical time. Pull over and stop the vehicle in 
a safe and legal manner before attempting to  access a function of the system requiring prolonged attention. Do not raise the vo lume 
excessively. Keep the volume at a level wh ere you can still hear outside traffic and em ergency signals while driving. Driving while unable 
to hear these sounds could result in a crash.
