Driving to Your Destination
Changing Routing MethodThe system lets you select the way you 
want to drive to your destination. Before 
selecting OK to calculate a route, you 
can change the routing method by 
moving the Interface Dial down. The 
route choices will appe ar in the address 
box.
NOTE:
When you are en route and want to 
change the routing method, press the 
MENU button, and select Change 
Method  on the MENU screen ( Route). “Direct Route” (the factory default) is 
the route that is the quickest (least 
time) and is usually the best choice. If 
you choose any other method, it 
becomes the new default for all future 
routing. Make sure to check the 
routing method if the displayed route 
is not what you expected to see.
 “Easy Route” produces a route with  the least turns.
 “Maximize Freeways,” “Minimize  Freeways,” and “Minimize Toll 
Roads” are also available.
NOTE:
If the trip is greater than 100 miles, then 
“Minimize Freeways”  and “Minimize 
Toll Roads” may be gr ayed out. This is 
normal. The generated route may not be the 
route you would choose. For safety 
reasons, the system generally applies the 
following rules to your route:
 It tries to avoid 
shortcuts through 
residential areas.
 Right turns are favored over left turns  or U-turns.
 Restricted turns (turns that cannot be  made during certain hours) are not 
used for routing.00_Accord 2D4D_KA.book  47 ページ  2011年7月21日 木曜日 午後1時59分

NOTE:
 You may only view routes as shown 
above from the  Calculate route to  
screen.
 The selected route method is shown at  the top of the screen.  It may take several minutes (the 
system displays an hourglass while it 
is calculating) to show all route 
methods, and it is not unusual for the 
different methods to pick the same 
route. Voice commands cannot be 
used while the system is calculating.
 If the trip is greater than 100 miles,  then “Minimize Toll Roads” and 
“Minimize Freeways” may be grayed 
out. This is normal.
 Based on the route data, you can change 
the routing method by rotating the 
Interface Dial knob . Once you 
confirm your selection, say the number 
of the desired routing method or push in 
on the  Interface Dial.
NOTE:
Distances and times shown for each 
method in the Summary are 
approximate. After calculating the route with the new

Voice Guidance PromptsAs you get near the maneuver, you will 
hear a voice reminder and see a pop-up 
window showing you the maneuver. 
The number of reminders that you will 
hear before a maneuver is determined 
by  Guidance Prompts  in SETUP on 
page 78.
With the factory default (NORMAL), 
typically you will hear two prompts:
 The first is about 1/4 mile from the  maneuver.
 The final prompt is close to your  actual turn.
If the distance between the next two 
driving maneuvers is very small, both 
maneuvers are displayed on the screen 
in a single window, and the voice will 
remind you of both of them at the same 
time. NOTE:
 You can say “Voice” at any time, or 
select  Voice after pushing on the 
Interface Dial  to be reminded of the 
next maneuver. For information on 
the available voice commands, see 
Voice Command Index  on page140.
 Typically, a pop-up guidance window  shows your next turn, and a voice 
guidance prompt is heard. The timing 
of these prompts varies, depending on 
the type of road you are on, and the 
distance to your next maneuver.
When given guidance in unverified 
areas, the words “if possible” are 
inserted before each guidance prompt. 
See  Unverified Area Routing  on page87
