Navigation System
RIDGELINE KA  31SJC850
Getting StartedEach entered letter will appear at the top 
of the display. Say or select Space to 
enter a space between words. Say or 
select  Delete  to erase a letter entered 
incorrectly.
When entering an address, the system 
searches the databa se for words that 
match the letters you are entering. As a 
result, you will notice that some letters 
are no longer available.
When the system finds only one entry 
that matches, it completes the entry of 
the name for you. If the system finds 
more than one entry that matches your 
input, the system displays a list.
Tip:
If you are unsure of the spelling of a 
name, enter the letters  that you are sure 
of, and then select  List. The system 
displays a list of names that most closely 
matches your input. You can choose to have your keyboard 
displayed in alphabetized format as 
shown below:
Or in a regular keyboard (QWERTY) 
format as shown below:
See 
Keyboard Layout  in the Setup 
screen (second) on page 96.
System Start-upWhen you turn the ignition to ON (II), it 
takes several seconds for the navigation 
system to boot up.
The first screen to appear is the 
navigation system  globe screen. The 
screen then changes to the  Disclaimer 
screen:
NOTE:
The  OK button does not appear 
immediately. It appears after the 
software is loaded.

RIDGELINE KA  31SJC850
System SetupRearview CameraYour vehicle is equipped with a 
rearview camera as shown in the 
illustration.
Whenever you shift to R (Reverse) with 
the ignition switch in the ON (II) 
position, the rear view is shown on the 
navigation screen. For the best image, 
always keep the rearview camera lens 
clean, and be sure it is not covered.
Since the rearview camera display area 
is limited, you should always back up 
slowly and carefully, and look behind 
you for obstacles.NOTE:
 The rearview camera has a special 
lens that makes distances appear 
closer than they actually are.
 The rearview 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.
Rearview Camera Brightness 
AdjustmentWhen the vehicle is in reverse, the touch 
screen and navigation “hard” buttons 
are locked out, except the  ZOOM 
buttons. Touching the “ ▼” or “ ▲” 
button allows you to adjust the 
brightness of the rearview camera 
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, or 
switching back to the  map/menu 
screen. This is normal.

Navigation System101
RIDGELINE KA  31SJC850System Initialization
System InitializationIf for any reason you  lose power to the 
navigation system (e.g., the battery was 
disconnected), the navigation system 
will require initialization. Once 
completed, your system will be ready to 
use.
This initialization requires the 
following:
 Entry of the 4-digit anti-theft security 
code.
 GPS initialization (may not be needed  depending on the length of time the 
system was without power).
 Map matching to align the GPS  coordinates to a place on the map 
(displays current street at the bottom 
of the map).
Entering the Security CodeIf the battery goes dead or is 
disconnected for any reason, you will 
have to enter a secur ity code for both the 
audio system and the navigation system 
before you can use it again.
When you purchased the vehicle, you 
should have rece ived two cards 
containing the audio and navigation 
system’s security codes and serial 
numbers. Keep these cards in a safe 
place in case you need the codes. If you 
lose the cards, you must obtain the 
security codes from your dealer. Enter the four-digit security code, then 
select 
Done. If you make a mistake, the 
system will display “incorrect PIN.” Re-
enter your 4-digit security code. If you 
have entered it correctly, the display 
changes to the  Disclaimer screen. You 
have 10 chances to enter the correct 
code. If all 10 are incorrect, turn the 
ignition to OFF, then back to ON (II) to 
have 10 more chances to enter the 
correct code.
Follow the instructions in the vehicle 
Owner’s manual to enter the 5-digit 
audio code. The navigation voice will 
not operate if the audio code is not 
entered.
NOTE:
The anti-theft security code is unrelated 
to your optional navigation system PIN 
(for Personal Address Book or Home 
Address).

Changing the DVDNOTE:
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.

message will be displayed on the 
screen. This is normal. 4. Push the Eject button. The DVD will 
automatically come out.
5. Pull the DVD straight out. Hold the  DVD by the edges. Fingerprints, 
scratches, or other contamination on

version DVD. If you must revert to a 
previous version DVD after loading a 
newer version, see your dealer for 
assistance.
 Please keep the door to the  navigation control unit closed at all 
times.
