Reporting Errors
Occasionally, you may encounter database errors.
• If the error pertains to freeways and main “verified” roads shown in black on the map, then report it either online athttp://update.navteq.com/ , or to Honda Customer Service.
• If the error involves a light brown “unverified” road, then do not report it. These areas have not been verified, and are provided for reference only (see Map Overview on page 6).
• For errors in points of interest (POI), like a business that has changed its name, do not report them. Keep in mind that depending on when the data was collected and when your DVD was purchased, the database can be out of date. The business may have not reported the change(s), or not be in the database at all. Update Navigation DVDs are available for purchase, usually in the fall of each year.
• If the error does not involve the database, such as vehicle position icon errors, screen error messages, or other GPS-related errors, see Frequently Asked Questions on page 123, System Limitations on page 98, or Troubleshooting on page 133.

Visiting Your Dealer
We strive to make this manual as complete as possible and to answer all questions regarding operation of the system. Occasionally, you may run into a specific issue that you cannot find in the book. You may save yourself a trip to the dealer by fi rst consulting the following resources:
• The Troubleshooting section (see page 133).
• The Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs) section (see page 123).
• The FAQs found on the online DVD order site (see “Obtaining a DVD”).
• For detailed questions regarding audio or other systems that interact with the navigation system, see your Owner’s Manual or the Technology Reference Guide.
• Call Honda Customer Relations (see “Honda Automobile Customer Service” on page 102).
• For database or PO I issues, follow the guidelines in the “Reporting Errors” section (see page 102).
If your question is still unanswered and you wish to visit the dealer, please be prepared to demonstrate the issue to the service advisor. This way, the service advisor can document the issue for the factory to allow more efficient troubleshooting.
Some issues may at first seem random, but you may notice a pattern. For example, they only occur when you enter a specific address, or when driving on a certain road, or just when it is cold. This information is very useful to the service advisor. Be patient, the service advisor may be unfamiliar with your specific issue.
Obtaining a Navigation
Update DVD
Honda is continually expanding the scope of the navigation system. Upgraded software may be made available to navigation system owners periodically, usually in the fall of each year.
To purchase an updated DVD or a replacement DVD, call the Honda Navigation Disc Fulfillment Center at (888) 291-4675. You can also order online by going to www.hondanavi.com.
NOTE:
DVDs are not available at your dealer. However, the dealer may order a DVD for you as a courtesy. There is no program for free DVD updates. The DVD order line staff cannot answer technical questions regarding navigation operation, coverage, or POIs. Purchasing used discs from alternate sources or online auctions may cause operational problems since they are likely to be incompatible with your current software.

Changing the DVD
NOTE:
The system’s database is stored on a
removable DVD. The system will not
work without the DVD. Ensure the door
remains closed at all times.
1. Remove the DVD while the ignition switch is in the ACCESSORY (I)
position or in the ON (II) position.
2. Push the OPEN button to tilt the
screen down. 3. Press down on the DVD cover release
tab , then lower the cover .
NOTE:
Be sure to close the DVD cover
completely before closing the screen.
The DVD cover may be damaged. 4. Press the MAP (Eject) button. The
DVD will automatically come out
and an error message will be
displayed on the screen. This is
normal.
5. Pull the DVD straight out. Hold the DVD by the edges. Fingerprints,
scratches, or other contamination on
the playing surface can make the
DVD unreadable.
To install the DVD, make sure the
turquoise (blue/green) label is facing up.
Slide the DVD into the DVD slot. The
DVD is automatically pulled into the
navigation system. Make sure you close
the navigation DVD cover, then close
the screen using the CLOSE button on

(or CD) in the navigation system DVD

PC Card Operation
A PC card with WMA or MP3 audio files can be played through the audio system and controlled using the navigation voice control system. PC card (PCMCIA) adaptors and various media chips can be purchased at any computer store. Tested media chips include Compact Flash and SD media, up to 2GB. Other media types and storage capacities may work, but have not been tested. Hard disc drive type media are not recommended because they can fail in a hot vehicle. See the FAQs section for additional information.
Inserting the PC Card
Ensure that the PCMCIA PC card adaptor contains th e media chip, and that the card adaptor is fully inserted in the slot, otherwise the display door will not close. Once the card is inserted and the door closed, ther e is a delay while the system reads the tag information (the folders, song titles, etc.). Once the tag information is read, the “CARD” or “TRACK LIST” buttons will function. For more information on the search feature, see the audio section of your Owner’s Manual.
Voice Control of PC Card
Functions
The navigation voice control system can be used to select the first 30 tracks directly by using the command, “Card play track X” (X=1-30). Additional voice commands allow the card tracks, artists, and albums to be played in a random, repeat, or scan mode. See the complete list of “Card” voice commands starting on page 142.
CD/CD-R Operation
A CD or a burned CD-R with MP3 or WMA media files can be played by the audio system and controlled using navigation voice commands. The display door will not close with a partially inserted CD in the slot. Once the display closes, there may be a slight delay before the “CD” or “TRACK LIST” buttons function. This is because the system has to read the tag information (artist, album, and track names) to allow searches to function. For more information on the search feature, see the audio section of your Owner’s Manual.
NOTE:
Ensure that burned CD-R discs do not have “stick-on” paper labels. The label adhesive can melt in a hot vehicle, and allow the label to curl up and jam the CD mechanism. Use a felt-tipped marker to label your CD-R discs.

Coverage Areas
Map Coverage
The system provides map coverage for the lower 48 U.S. states, Hawaii, and southern Canada. The U.S. map coverage consists of accurately mapped (verified) metropolitan areas (in the following list) and a less accurate (unverified) rural database. Canada coverage consists of major metropolitan areas and major ro ads connecting the metropolitan areas within about 100 miles north of the U.S. border. If you need additional northern Canada coverage, you may purchase the Canadian DVD (see Obtaining a Navigation Update DVD on page 103). See Map Overview on page 6 for a discussion of map coverage.
The cities and metropolitan areas in the following list are fully mapped. Only major streets, roads, and freeways have been verified outside these areas. If your route passes through these areas, routing may be limited, depending on your routing choices. See Unverified Area Routing on page 83.
If you desire additional map coverage information, contact Honda Customer Services or go to www.hondanavi.com.
