Getting Started
Screen
All selections and instructions are
displayed on the screen. In addition, the
display is not a “touch screen” - you can
enter information into the system either
by voice or by using the Interface
Dial .
Clean the screen with a soft, damp cloth.
You may use a mild cleaner intended for
use on liquid crystal displays (LCDs).
Harsher chemicals may damage the
screen.
NOTE:
Whenever you shift to R (Reverse), the
rear view behind the vehicle is shown on
the navigation system screen. See
page 116. Upper Display
Shows a summary of the audio and
climate control information, as well as
the time. This summary is helpful as a
confirmation when adjusting audio or
climate by voice.
The audio summary consists of the radio
band, frequency, and volume. For XM
radio, a brief description of the station
and current music is displayed.
The climate status consists of the
driver’s and passenger’s temperature,
fan speed, ON/OFF (AC), and vent
setting. The time is automatically set by
the navigation system. Settings can be
adjusted in SETUP (see
Time
Adjustment on page 110).

78Navigation System
Continue Trip Screen
If you restart the vehicle without having
completed your prior trip, you will see
the following screen:
• To continue to your destination or other waypoints, say or select OK.
• To cancel your destination, press the CANCEL button or the NAVI
BACK button on the steering wheel,
or using the voice control system, say
“Cancel” or “Back.”
• If you wish to change the routing method, say or select CHANGE
METHOD by moving the Interface
Dial down.
• For additional information on changing the routing method, see
Changing the Routing Method on
page 52.
AcuraLink Messages
AcuraLink enhances your ownership
experience by providing a direct
communication link between you and
Acura. AcuraLink messages are
displayed on the navigation screen.
Working through the XM Satellite
Radio, AcuraLink works in conjunction
with your vehicle’s navigation,
Bluetooth® HandsFreeLink® (HFL),
and audio systems to send and receive
several kinds of message. These include:
• Operating tips and information on your vehicle’s features.
• Important recall and safety information.
• Maintenance information to keep your vehicle in top condition.
• Diagnostic information to provide information about any problems with
your vehicle.
NOTE:
See your Owner’s Manual for more details on this feature.
AcuraLink relies on a satellite signal. It will not work correctly in Hawaii
and Alaska. When service information is received
from your vehicle or AcuraLink, an
envelope icon is displayed in the upper
right corner of the navigation screen.
The
Interface Dial controls most
AcuraLink functions. For more
information on AcuraLink, refer to:
• The Advanced Technology Guide for features and a function overview.
• Your Owner’s Manual for a detailed explanation of the system.

System Setup
AcuraLink/Messages
For complete details on setting up your
AcuraLink messaging, refer to the
AcuraLink section in your Owner’s
Manual. Or, you can go to the Owner
Link section on the Ownership
Experience page at www.acura.com.
NOTE:
AcuraLink relies on a satellite signal. It
will not work correctly in Hawaii and
Alaska.
Traffic & Weather Status
You can confirm the reception status of XM signal, traffic information data, or
weather information data.
The following messages will be displayed:
Message Status
Receiving The system is receiving XM signal, Traffic data, or Weather data.
No signal •The system cannot receive XM signal. •XM signal is recei ved, but the system cannot receive Traffic data or
Weather data.
Expired Activation is expire d. To reactivate your traffic or weather subscription,
call XM at (800) 852-9696, or order online at www.xmradio.com. The
order process requires the 8-characte r XM radio ID (displayed on XM
channel 0) and a credit card.
Loading The system is searching for the signal or updating the data.
Check Antenna Antenna error
--- The system cannot receive Traffic data or Weather data because XM
Signal Reception stat us is “No signal” or “Check Antenna.”

Navigation System143
Operation in Alaska and
Hawaii
Certain functions that rely on a satellite
signal will not work in Alaska and
Hawaii. These functions include but are
not limited to AcuraLink, NavTraffic,
Weather, automatic clock updates, and
time zone adjustments.
Alaska
If the vehicle was purchased in the
lower 48 states and driven to Alaska, the
system cannot display maps. The
message “Vehicle is out of the
database...” will be displayed.
Hawaii
This section describes the differences in
navigation system operation for vehicles
delivered in Hawaii.
XM Radio
Navigation vehicles delivered to Hawaii
are equipped with XM hardware, but
XM broadcasting is not available;
therefore sections of the manual that
mention XM audio, traffic displays,
weaher information, and AcuraLink
features do not apply. Vehicles
originally delivered to the U.S.
mainland and shipped to Hawaii also
have XM, but will not function because
the XM satellites (aimed toward the
U.S. mainland) are too far away to
obtain reception.
Map Coverage
All roads displayed on the Hawaii map
screens are detailed coverage roads.
Text related to “unverified” roads or
areas are not applicable. The following
topics do not apply in Hawaii:
• Unverified road descriptions (see page 6 and 101).
• Cautions and pop-up windows related to unverified roads (see page 71). • Setup entries that relate to turning on
or off unverified routing (see
page 102).
• When zooming in and out, there is no 350-mile scale for Hawaii.
Other Map Issues
• See the coverage section for a list of islands with coverage (see page 128).
• The map scale “traffic” indicator, shown beneath the map scale bar,
may show at vehicle start but
disappear later. This is normal.
• Freeway Exit information does not exist in Hawaii, so the “Freeway Exit
Info” icon is not shown on the icon
bar.
