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.

Visible Range of the Rearview
ImageThe rearview image is displayed within
approximately three meters of the vehicle.
NOTE:
• The multi-view rear camera has a
special lens that makes distances
appear different than they actually
are.
• The multi-view rear camera display has a limited range, and the size and
position of objects around the area
may appear differe nt from reality.
Make sure to check the surrounding
area carefully.
Tip:
To turn the guide lines on or off, press
and hold the CANCEL button for three
seconds.
Multi-view Rear Camera
Brightness AdjustmentWhen in reverse, the navigation buttons
are locked out, except the rotating

brighter, and counterclockwise to
darken the image.
This brightness adjustment is
independent of the screen brightness
adjustment in SETUP.
NOTE:
• The camera brightness cannot be adjusted by voice control.
• Slight delays can occur when switching to the camera image
(especially when first starting your
vehicle), or switching back to the
map/menu screen. This is normal.

Navigation System
System InitializationSystem InitializationIf for any reason you lose power to the
vehicle (e.g., the battery was
disconnected), the navigation system
will require initialization.
The navigation system supports a VIN-
recognition anti-theft system. If the
correct navigation system is installed in
the vehicle, you do not need to enter a
code as shown on the screen below.
If this screen appears, press and hold the
audio power button for two seconds to
resume system operation. The system
may need a few moments to reacquire
the GPS signal.
Entering the Security CodeIf another system has been installed in
the vehicle, you will have to enter a
security code for the audio and
navigation system before you can use it
again.
Visit http://radio-navicode.honda.com/
to retrieve the 5-digit security code for
your vehicle, or contact your dealer.
Enter the 5-digit security code in
accordance with the owner’s manual for
your vehicle. If you do not enter the
security code, the navigation and audio
voice will not function.
NOTE:
The anti-theft security code is unrelated
to your optional navigation system PIN
(for Address Book or Home Address).
GPS InitializationDepending on the length of time the
battery was disconnected, your system
may require GPS initialization. If it
does, the following screen appears:
If this procedure is not necessary, the
system proceeds directly to the
Disclaimer screen (see page 18).
During initialization, the system
searches for all available GPS satellites
and obtains their orbital information.
During this procedure, the vehicle
should be out in the open with a clear
view of the sky.

Navigation System119
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.

120
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.
