The SiriusXM® satellites are in orbit over the equator;
therefore, objects south of the vehicle may cause
satellite reception interruptions. Satellite signals are
more likely to be blocked by tall buildings and
mountains the farther north you travel from the
equator.
You may experience reception problems under the
following circumstances:
•In a location with an obstruction to the south of
your vehicle
•In tunnels•On the lower level of a multi-tiered road
•Large items are carried on the roof rack

Troubleshooting
Traffic
ProblemSolution
Traffic information is missing or is not displaying
properly. What is wrong?Verify the following:●Traffic information relies on a clear signal. If signal strength is low, traffic data
may not be available.
●Check that the traffic icons are turned on.
2Showing Icons on the Map P. 51●It is possible that there is a temporary technical problem with your metropolitan
area traffic information provider. You can call Honda Automobile Customer
Service to see if there is an outage.
2Honda Automobile Customer Service Contact Information P. 226●If the situation persists, see your Honda dealer for assistance.●Traffic information is available only in certain areas.
The navigation system sometimes provides a detour
route when I am driving a route on the freeway.If Traffic Rerouting is set to On, the navigation system provides a detour route
to your destination only if it can find a significantly faster route than the original
one.
2Traffic Rerouting P. 42
The navigation system routes me to an exit and an
alternate freeway with unknown flow speeds or
surface streets.The navigation system predicts which route should be faster based on freeway
congestion along your route. Use your own experience to determine whether the
alternate route would be faster.
How can I ignore the detour route and return to the
original route?Select HOME > Settings > Navigation > Routing tab, and set Traffic
Rerouting to Off.

System Limitations
GPS
The signals received from 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
• 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
• Audio electronic devices mounted near
the navigation unit
• Trees, tall buildings, freeway overpasses,
tunnels, or overhead electrical power
wires
GPS is operated by the U.S. Department of
Defense. For security reasons, there are
certain inaccuracies built into GPS for which
the navigation system must constantly
compensate. This can cause occasional positioning errors of up to several hundred
feet.
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 addresses 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 stations, 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.
