Navigation System
System SetupMulti-view Rear CameraYour vehicle is equipped with a Multi-
view rear camera as shown in the
illustration.
When you shift to R (Reverse) with the
ignition switch in the ON (II) position,
the rear view is shown on the navigation
screen. Parking guide lines appear in the
rear view. For the best image, always
keep the camera lens clean, and be sure
it is not covered.
Since the camera display area is limited,
you should always back up slowly and
carefully, and look behind you for
obstacles.
Three-way Rearview ModesThe rearview image can be easily
switched between Wide, Normal, and
Top view modes by pushing in on the
Interface Dial .
When you select the Wide or Normal
view mode and turn the ignition off, the
last mode is selected the next time the
camera is used.
Tip:
Only use Top view when objects are
close (less than one meter) to your
vehicle.
NOTE:
If the last mode is Top view, the Normal
view mode is selected the next time the
camera is used.

System Initialization
If the navigation system finds the
satellites properly, this box clears and
the Disclaimer screen is shown. If
within 10 minutes the system fails to
locate a sufficient number of satellites to
locate your position, the following
screen appears:
If the system is still unable to acquire a
signal, follow the in structions on the
screen, or contact your local dealer for
assistance.
NOTE:
The average acquiring time is less than
10 minutes.
Map MatchingThis part of the initialization matches
the GPS coordinates found above with a
road on the map screen. To perform this
part of the procedure, ensure that the
navigation system is displaying a map,
and drive the vehicle on a mapped road
(a road shown on the map screen). Do
not enter a destination at this time.
When the name of the current road you
are driving on appears at the bottom of
the screen, the enti re procedure is
complete. Your system is now ready to
use. Although your navigation system is one
of the most highly sophisticated pieces
of equipment you will find in a modern
automobile, you may find during its use
that it has certain limitations.
The system uses GPS signals to aid in
determining its current location.
The GPS is operated by the U.S.
Department of Defe
nse. For security
reasons, there are certain inaccuracies
built into the GPS that the navigation
system must constantly compensate for.
This can cause occasional positioning
errors of up to several hundred feet.
For example, in urban areas where
streets are close together, this could
cause the system to show that you are
traveling on a street that parallels the
street you are actually on. The system
will, under most circ umstances, correct
itself while you drive.

Navigation System
System LimitationsAlso, depending on your current view of
the sky and the position of the satellites,
the elevation may be shown incorrectly.
You may also notice some delay of the
vehicle position icon at intersections;
this is normal.GPS Reception IssuesThe 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 sky. The signal can easily be
interrupted or interfered with by the
following:
• Aftermarket metallic window tint above or to the sides of the GPS
antenna (located in the dashboard)
• Cell 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 • Other aftermarket audio electronic
devices mounted near the navigation
unit
• Trees, tall buildings, freeway overpasses, tunnels, or overhead
electrical power wires
Although the system will direct you to
your desired destination, it may not
always generate what you consider to be
the most direct route. Try changing the
method of routing. See Changing the
Route Preference on page 51. You may
also have Unverified Area Routing set
to OFF. See Unverified Area Routing on
page 98.
Additionally, the mapping database
contains verified and unverified maps.
See Map Overview on page 6. A
Disclaimer screen will warn you if your
route includes unverified streets.
Unverified streets may be missing from
the map, in the wrong location, or have
an incorrect name or address range.
Exercise additional caution when
driving in these unverified areas. The destination icon shows the
approximate location of
the destination.
This occurs because a city block can
have as many as 100 possible addresses
(for example, the 1400 block is followed
by the 1500 block) Since most cities use
only a portion of the 100 possible
addresses (for example, in the 1400
block, the addresses may only go up to
1425 before the 1500 block starts), the
address 1425 will be shown a quarter of
the way down the block by the system
instead of at the end of the block where
the destination is actually located.
You may find that the system
occasionally reboots. This is indicated
by the display returning to the
navigation system globe screen. A
reboot can be caused by a number of
things, such as extreme temperatures or
shock from bumpy roads. It does not
necessarily indicate a problem that
requires service. If this happens
frequently, please see your dealer.

Frequently Asked Questions
Map and Features, Voice Opera tion, Entering Addresses
Problem Solution
Why does the Disclaimer screen need to be displayed every
time I start the car? I am the only driver. The
Disclaimer screen reminds you and your guest drivers to always
operate the navigation system in a safe manner.
I tried entering an address, but the city or street could not be
found. Is there any other way to route to the location? Some cities are lumped in with a majo
r metro area. Try entering the street
first. In rural “unverified” areas or new subdivisions, streets may be
missing, or only partially numbered. Try selecting the destination directly
from the map. See By Map Input on page 44.
When I enter an address, some letters become grayed out. Is
this normal? Yes. As you enter each letter in an addr
ess or a point of interest (POI), the
system looks in the database to see wh at letters are possible and “grays out”
letters that do not apply.
How do I delete Personal Addresses, Previous Destinations,
or the Home Address? This is done in the
SETUP screen ( Main Setup), under “Personal
Information.” See page 87.
I cannot hear the navigation system voice. 1) Ensure that Volume in the SETUP screen ( Main Setup ) is not OFF.
See page 87.
2) Go to “Basic Settings” in the SETUP screen ( Other), and set Voice
Recognition Tutor to ON . See page 96.
The voice control system is having difficulty recognizing my
voice commands. Ensure that the vents are not blowing
on the microphone on the ceiling, the
vehicle is as quiet as possible, and you are using the correct command when
speaking (see Improving Voice Recognition on page 14). Say “Help” at any
screen to see a list of the applicab le voice commands. If the system cannot
recognize your command because of background noise, speak louder.
When the system pronounces the street name in the guidance
command or reads the destination address, it sounds strange.
What causes this? The basic guidance phrase uses a studio-r
ecorded voice, but the street name
is pronounced by the system using a machine-generated voice.
Consequently, the name may be mispronounced or sound strange at times.
When I drive at night, the screen is bright and will not switch
to the night display mode. Why? Verify the following: The nighttime dash brightness control is not set to
maximum, and
Map Color in SETUP is set to Black for Night. See
Switching Display Mode Manually on page 108.

Frequently Asked QuestionsTrafficThe daytime map screen is dark like the night display mode,
and it is hard to see. Why? Verify the following: The
Map Color in SETUP is set to White for Day.
See Switching Display Mode Manually on page 108.
How do I change or remove my PIN? Go to “Personal Information” in the SETUP screen ( Main Setup ), and
select PIN Number . Select GO Home 1 PIN or GO Home 2 PIN or
Address Book PIN and enter your existing PIN. You then have the choice
to change or remove the PIN. See page 92.
I forgot the PIN for Home. How do I reset it? PINs are optional. See information regarding PINs on page 92. Your dealer
can reset the PIN for you.
CALL is not available on the Calculate route to screen.
Why? Your phone is not paired to HFL, or if your phone is paired, it is in use;
press the
HANG-UP button.
Problem Solution
My FM Traffic is missing and is not displaying properly.
What is wrong? Verify the following:
• FM Traffic relies on a clear FM sign
al. If the radio has poor signal
strength to traffic-broadcasting statio ns, traffic data may not be available.
• Check the traffic icon on the icon bar, and the icon options for traffic. See
page 59.
• It is possible that there is a temporary technical problem with your metropolitan area traffic. You can cal l Honda Customer Service to see if
there is an outage (page 123).
• If the situation persists, see y our Honda dealer for assistance.
