To display the Setup screens, use the voice control system and say “Setup” or press the SETUP button. To change to another Setup screen, say or select More in the upper right corner of the screen.
On any of the Setup screens, you can use the voice control system to select any item on the screen.

100Navigation System
Database Limitations
You will find that some points of interest (POI) may be missing when you search the database. This can be caused if at the time the database was gathered, the name was misspelled, the place was improperly categorized, or the POI change is not yet in the database. This means you may not find places listed that you know exist. This is also true for police agencies and hospitals. In outlying areas, facilities listed may not be the closest. Always check with local information sources if you need law enforcement or ho spital services.
Every effort has been made to verify that the system’s database was accurate at the time it was created. However, businesses do close or relocate, and new businesses start in th e old locations. For this reason, you may occasionally find inaccurate information when you select and drive to a point of interest (for example, a restaurant is now a jewelry store). The number of these inaccuracies increases the longer you go without an update.
The digitized map database reflects conditions as they existed at various points in time before production. Accordingly, your DVD may contain inaccurate or incomplete data or information due to the passage of time, road construction, ch anging conditions, or other causes.
Due to ongoing software and database improvements, navigation disc versions may change in the middle of a production year. The version shipped with your vehicle was the most recent available at the time of production and is considered standard equipment for that vehicle. There is no free program to retrofit early production vehicles with the latest disc. For DVD ordering information, see page 103.
In addition, this database does not include, analyze, proc ess, consider, or reflect any of the following categories of information:
• Neighborhood quality or safety
• Population density
• Availability or proximity of law enforcement
• Emergency, rescue, medical, or other assistance
• Construction work, zones, or hazards
• Road and lane closures
• Legal restrictions (such as vehicular type, weight, load, height, and speed restrictions)
• Road slope or grade
• Bridge height, width, weight, or other limits
• Road traffic, safety, or conditions
• Weather conditions
• Special events
• Pavement characteristics or conditions

Customer Assistance
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.

Customer Assistance
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.

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.

Navigation System121
Operation in Alaska and
Hawaii
Certain functions that rely on a satellite signal will not work in Alaska and Hawaii. These functions include but are not limited to XM radio, automatic clock updates, and time zone adjustments.
Alaska
If the vehicle was purchased in the lower 48 states and driven to Alaska, the system cannot display maps. The message “Vehicle is out of the database...” will be displayed.
Hawaii
This section describes the differences in navigation system operation for vehicles delivered in Hawaii.
Map Coverage
All roads displayed on the Hawaii map screens are detailed coverage roads. Text related to “unverified” roads or areas are not applicable. The following topics do not apply in Hawaii:
• Unverified road descriptions (see page 6 and 83).
• Cautions and pop-up windows related to unverified roads (see page 62).
• Setup entries that re late to turning on or off unverified routing (see page 84).
• When zooming in and out, there is no 350-mile scale for Hawaii.
Other Map Issues
• See the coverage section for a list of islands with coverage (see page 107).
• Freeway Exit information does not exist in Hawaii, so the “Freeway Exit Info” icon is not shown on the icon bar.
Address and POI Entry Screens
When in Hawaii, the following differences occur for map, address, and POI selection:
• It is not possible to enter U.S. mainland addresses or scroll the map east to the U.S. mainland.
• Selection of the “State” is confined to the state of Hawaii only.
• Entry of a destination address or POI on an island other than your current island may result in a screen caution message. This is normal because there are no “ferry” routes between islands available in the database.
• If the “Guidance Prompts” setting on the Setup screen is set to normal or maximum, street names will not be spoken in voice guidance commands.
