System Initialization
128 Navigation System

System Initialization
If for any reason you lose power
to the vehicle (e.g., the battery is
disconnected), the navigation and audio
system will require initialization. Once
completed, your system will be ready
to use.
This initialization requires the
following:
• Entry of the 5-digit anti-theft security
code to “unlock” the navigation and
audio system.
• GPS initialization (may not be needed depending on the length of
time the system was without power).
(See GPS Initialization o n p a g e 1 2 9 . )
• Map matching to align the GPS coordinates to a place on the map
(displays current street at the bottom
of the map). (See Map Matching on
page 129 .)
Entering the Security Code
When you purchased the vehicle,
you should have received one card
containing a 5-digit anti-theft code
used to activate both the navigation and
audio system.
Enter the 5-digit security code in
accordance with the instructions in your
owner’s manual. If you do not enter the
security code, navigation, audio, and
voice recognition will not function.
If you lose the card or do not have
access to it, you can retrieve it using
one of the following methods:
1) G o t o www.myacura.com , if you
previously set up your account in
accordance with the vehicle owner’s
manual.
2) Call Acura Client Relations at (800) 382-2238.
3) Visit your dealer.
You will need your radio serial number
and vehicle VIN to retrieve the anti-
theft code. To retrieve the radio serial number,
press and hold the audio preset 1 and 6
buttons. Continue to hold the buttons,
then turn on the radio. Record the serial
number shown on the radio display.
NOTE:
The anti-theft security code is
unrelated to your optional navigation
system PIN (for Address Book or Home
Address) .
