Navigation
Listening to Voice Guidance
As you approach each guidance point, a pop-up window is displayed on the map
screen with instructions for you to follow. Voice guidance for each guidance point is
also provided.
Typically, you hear three prompts:
• 1/2 mile (800 m) from the guidance point (2 miles (3 km) on freeway/highway)
• 1/4 mile (400 m) from the guidance point (1 mile (1.5 km) on freeway/highway)
• Just before the guidance point
To replay voice guidance, press and rotate to select Repeat Guidance in the
Map/Route Menu.
If you select Repeat Guidance between guidance points, voice guidance for the
next guidance point is provided.1 Listening to Voice Guidance
You can turn voice guidance OFF if you prefer. Press
the SETTINGS button. Select System Settings and
set Guidance Volume to 0.
You can also adjust Guidance Volume by rotating
the volume knob while the route guidance or voice
command confirmations is announced.
When driving in unverified areas, the phrase “if
possible” is inserted before each voice guidance
prompt.
Repeat Guidance in the Map/Route Menu may be
grayed out if:
•The system is in proce ss of gathering the route
guidance information.
•The vehicle is out of the road (e.g., pulling in a
parking lot).
The timing of voice guidanc e varies depending on the
type of road you are on and the distance to the next

Reference Information
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.

3. Speech Recognition: You acknowledge
and understand that HONDA and
PROVIDERS may record, retain, and use
voices commands when you use the speech
recognition components of the SOFTWARE
or SERVICES. You and all VEHICLE operators
and passengers (a) consent to the recording
and retention of voice commands in
support of providing speech recognition
components and (b) release HONDA and
PROVIDERS from all claims, liabilities, and

Recognition errors are inherent in speech
recognition. It is your responsibility to
monitor any speech re cognition functions
included in the system 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 manual (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 laws you are responsible to know and
follow. Even occasional short 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 volume excessively. Keep the
volume at a level where you can still hear
outside traffic and emer gency signals while
driving. Driving while unable to hear these
sounds could result in a crash.
