D. SOFTWARE Operationa l Notices and Warnings
1. Vehicle Geolocation Information. You acknowledge that your VE HICLE may be equipped with certain traffic and map features. The
traffic feature will automatically collect and transmit, through GPS technology, your Vehicle’s cu rrent location (longitude and latitude),
travel direction and speed (“VEHICLE GEOLOCATION INFORMATION”) to HONDA and PROVIDERS. The VEHICLE GEOLOCATION
INFORMATION is used by HONDA and PROVIDERS to provide traffic and navigation-related information to you, but may also be used to

2. Potential Map Inaccuracy and Route Safety. Maps used by this system may be inaccurate because of changes in roads, traffic controls,
routing, or driving conditions. Always use good judgment and co mmon sense when following suggested routes. Do not follow the route
suggestions if doing so would result in an un safe or illegal driving maneuver, if you would be placed in an unsafe situation, o r if you would
be directed into an area that you consider unsafe. Do not rely on any navigation features included in the system to route you t o emergency
services. Not all emergency services such as police, fire stations, hospitals, or clin ics are likely to be contained in the map database for such
navigation features. Ask local authorities or an emergency services operator for such locations and routes. The driver is ultimately
responsible for the safe operation of the ve hicle and therefore, must evaluate whether it is safe to follow the suggested directions. Any
navigation features are provided only as an aid. Make your driving decisions based on your obser vations of local conditions and existing
traffic regulations. Navigation features are not a substitute for your personal judgmen t. Any route suggestions made by the SOFTWARE or
SERVICES should never replace any local traffic regulations or yo ur personal judgment or knowledge of safe driving practices.
3. Speech Recognition: You acknowledge and understand that HONDA and PROVIDERS may re cord, retain, and use voices commands
when you use the speech recognit ion components of the SOFTWARE or SERVICES. You and all VEHICLE operators and passengers (a)
consent to the recording and rete ntion of voice commands in support of providing speech recognition components and (b) release HONDA
and PROVIDERS from all claims, liabilities, an d losses that may result from any use of such recorded voice commands. Recognitio n errors
are inherent in speech recognition. It is your responsibility to monitor any speech recognition functions included in the syste m and address
any errors. Neither HONDA nor PROVIDERS will be liable for any damages arising out of errors in the speech recognition process.
4. Distraction Hazards. Navigation features may require manual (non-verbal) input or se tup. Attempting to perform such set-up or insert
data while driving can seriously distract your attention and could cause a crash or other serious consequences; the ability to undertake such
interactions may also be limited by state or local law, which la ws you are responsible to know and follow. Even occasional shor t scans of
the screen may be hazardous if your attention has been diverted away from your driving at a critical time. Pull over and stop the vehicle in
a safe and legal manner before attempting to access a function of the system requiring prolonged attention. Do not raise the vo lume
excessively. Keep the volume at a level wh ere you can still hear outside traffic and em ergency signals while driving. Driving while unable
to hear these sounds could result in a crash.
