Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs) (page 128)

Troubleshooting Guide (page 135)

Glossary of Terms (page 137)

Voice Command List (page 140)

Operation Specific to Alaska and Hawaii (page 126)

System Overview Your navigation system is a highly sophisticated location system with voice control that uses satellites and a map database to show you where you are and to help guide you to a desired destination.

The navigation system receives signals from the global positioning system (GPS), a network of 24 satellites in orbit around the earth. By receiving signals from several of these satellites, the navigation system can determine the latitude, longitude, and elevation of your vehicle. In addition, a gyroscopic yaw sensor and a vehicle speed sensor in your vehicle keep track of the direction and speed of travel at all times.

This vehicles navigation display, if so equipped, includes mercury-containing components. Upon removal, please reuse, recycle, or dispose of as hazardous waste.

Navigation System 5

Accord 2D4D_KA 31TA5840

Introduction

The navigation system applies location, direction, and speed information to the maps and calculates a route to the destination you enter. As you drive to that destination, the system provides map and voice guidance.

The navigation system is easy to use. The locations of many places of business and entertainment are already entered in the system. You can select any of them as a destination by using the Interface Dial or voice control.

There are several ways to enter a destination, such as by point of interest (POI), by address, by phone number, and by selecting it from the map. The last 50 destinations are saved for reuse at a later date. The system also allows you to store a home address to simplify returning home from your destination.

Accessories Precautions If you have rear window tinting installed, be aware that if the tint has metallic properties, it can seriously degrade or prevent GPS reception. This is because the GPS antenna is located on the passenger's side of the rear shelf.

If you plan to install electronic components, such as radar detectors, vehicle tracking devices, remote starters, additional amplifiers, or other audio components, ensure that they are not located near the navigation control unit in the trunk, near the navigation display in the dash, or near the GPS antenna on the passenger's side of the rear shelf. Signal noise emanating from these devices can cause intermittent disruption of the navigation system.

Important Safety Information The navigation system can distract your attention from the road if you focus on the screen or operate the systems controls while driving.

Enter as much information as possible into the system before you begin driving, or when the vehicle is stopped. Then, as you drive, listen to the audio instructions and use voice commands when possible.

Accord 2D4D_KA 31TA5840

While driving, do not look at the screen or operate the system controls for more than a second or so at a time, and only after deciding you can do so safely. Pull to the side of the road if you need more time to look at the screen or operate the controls.

The navigation system is designed to provide route information to help you reach your destination. However, this route guidance may sometimes conflict with current road conditions such as street closures, road construction, detours, and out-of-date map data.

Additionally, the system itself has certain limitations (see page 105). Therefore, you must verify the audio and visual route information provided by the system by carefully observing the roadway, signs and signals, etc. If you are unsure, proceed with caution. Always use your own good judgment, and obey traffic laws while driving.

Map Overview

Current Street The current street on which your vehicle is located appears at the bottom of the map screen (see page 19). A message saying Not on a digitized road may appear instead when you drive half a mile away from a mapped road. For more details, see Off-road Tracking on page 62.

Verified/Unverified Street Your navigation system has two kinds of streets: verified (dark colored) and unverified (light colored). The differences between the two types of streets are contrasted in the chart on page 7.

Using the navigation system while driving can take your attention away from the road, causing a crash in which you could be seriously injured or killed.

Only operate system controls when the conditions permit you to safely do so.

Introduction

Verified streets (dark colored) Unverified streets (light colored)

When displayed

These roads are found within metropolitan areas, and include interstate freeways and major roads connecting cities.

These roads are found in rural areas, and typically include residential streets away from the center of a town.

Street color Shown on daytime map screen as black or red, such as interstate freeways.

Shown on the daytime map screen as light brown.

Map quality

The database vendor has verified these streets. Information like turn restrictions, average speed, and whether it is a one-way street have been gathered and used when creating your route to a destination.

These streets have not been verified by the database vendor. The system does not contain information on one-way streets, turn restrictions, or the roads average speed. They are shown on the map for reference and may have errors in map location, naming, and address range.

Routing differences

While driving to your destination, the displayed route line is solid blue. The system provides voice and map guidance to your destination.

Your route line is either a blue dotted vector line, or a dashed pink/blue line. For information on selecting this option, and the routing differences, see Unverified Area Routing on page 87.

Cautions

There are no pop-up boxes urging extra caution during a route. However, because roads constantly change, you are urged to use common sense, and always obey posted traffic restrictions.

Regardless of whether the user chooses route guidance, there are cautionary screens before and during the route urging the user to be extra cautious, and obey all traffic restrictions. See Unverified Area Routing on page 87.

Guidance voice

Voice guidance issues instructions such as In a half- mile, make a right turn.

The phrase if possible is added to each guidance instruction. For example: In a half-mile, make a right turn, if possible.

Time and distance to go

The time and distance to go, displayed while en route to a destination, is based on the average speed and distance for the roads used for your route.

Because the average speed of these roads is not known, the time and distance to go is based on a fixed average speed of 25 mph for these roads.

Getting Started

Voice Control Basics Your vehicle has a voice control system that allows hands-free operation of most of the navigation system functions. You can also control the audio and climate control system. The voice control system uses the NAVI TALK and NAVI BACK buttons on the steering wheel and a microphone near the map lights on the ceiling.

NOTE: While using the voice control system, the audio system is muted.

NAVI TALK button This button activates the voice control system. Press and release it when you want to give a voice command. See Voice Command Index on page 140 for a list of voice commands.

NAVI BACK button This button has the same function as the CANCEL button. When you press and release it, the display returns to the previous screen. When the previous screen appears, the system replays the last prompt. This button is enabled for navigation system commands only. However, it can be used to cancel an audio or climate control voice command up to one second after the command confirmation.

NOTE: The NAVI TALK and NAVI BACK buttons are deactivated while using the Bluetooth HandsFreeLink feature. See your Owners Manual and the official website (handsfreelink.honda.com) for information on this system.

Accord 2D4D_KA 31TA5840

Getting Started

Using the Voice Control System You should use the voice control system as much as possible, and consider manual entry using the Interface Dial as a backup method of entry.

Most of the systems functions can be controlled by voice commands activated with the NAVI TALK button. To control the navigation system by voice:

Press and release the NAVI TALK button.

Wait for the beep (the icon is displayed on the top left of the screen).

Give a voice command.

Once the microphone picks up your command, the system changes the display in response to the command and prompts you for the next command. Using the NAVI TALK button, answer the prompts as required.

If the system does not understand a command or you wait too long to give a command, it responds with Pardon, Please repeat, or Would you say again. If the system cannot perform a command or the command is not appropriate for the screen you are on, it sounds a beep.

Anytime you are unsure of what voice commands are available on a screen, you can always say Help. The system will then read the list of available commands to you.

When you give a command, the system generally either repeats the command as a confirmation or asks you for further information. If you do not wish to hear this feedback, you can turn it off. However, hearing the feedback will familiarize you with the way the system expects commands to be phrased. See the Voice Recognition Feedback setting in SETUP.

If you hear a prompt such as Please use the Interface Dial to... or Please choose an area with the Interface Dial, the system is asking for input that cannot be performed using the voice control system.

Improving Voice Recognition To achieve optimum voice recognition when using either the navigation or Bluetooth HandsFreeLink voice control system, the following guidelines should be followed:

NOTE: Make sure the correct screen is displayed for the voice command that you are using. See Voice Command Index on page 140.

It is best if the windows and sunroof are closed. If you drive with the windows or sunroof open, speak a little louder to overcome the wind noises.

Adjust the dashboard and side vents so air does not blow against the microphone on the ceiling.

Getting Started

If more than one person is speaking at the same time, the system may misinterpret your command.

After pressing and releasing the NAVI TALK button, wait for the beep, then give a voice command while the icon is displayed on the top left of the screen .

Give a voice command in a clear, natural speaking voice without pausing between words.

If the system cannot recognize your command because of background noise, speak louder.

If you are still having trouble with the voice control system, refer to Voice Command Help on the Information screen or say Help while the icon is displayed on the top left of the screen.

NOTE: The voice control system can be used only in the drivers seat because the microphone unit removes noises from the front passengers side.

Selecting an Item (Button) on the Screen On most screens, there are items that can be selected (like buttons with titles such as OK or Return). To select an item on any screen, do one of the following:

Use the voice control system and say the name of the desired item. Almost all selectable items on the screen, including some listed items, are recognized by the voice control system.

Move the highlighting to the desired item with the Interface Dial or its knob, then push in on the Interface Dial.

Tip: If items are grayed out, this means that they cannot be selected.

Selecting an Item in a List To scroll through a list, do one of the following:

Rotate the Interface Dial knob to scroll one item at a time.

Use the voice control system to scroll page by page. For example, to scroll up, say Up or Previous. To scroll down, say Next or Down.

Move the Interface Dial up or down to scroll through the list page by page.

If you cannot find the desired name, or have made an error, return to the previous screen by pressing the CANCEL or the NAVI BACK button on the steering wheel.

To select the desired item in the list, do one of the following:

Use the voice control system, and say the item number of the desired item.

Rotate the Interface Dial knob to move the highlighting to the item, then push in on the Interface Dial.

Getting Started

Entering Information When the system needs input from you, the display changes to a screen similar to the one at the right. You can then use the displayed letters, numbers, or symbols to enter information. You can enter your keyboard input in either of the following ways:

Say the desired letter, number, or symbol on the screen if you are entering a City or Street name.

Move the highlighting to the desired letter, number, or symbol by rotating the Interface Dial knob, then push in on the Interface Dial.

Each entered letter will appear at the top of the display. Move the Interface Dial right to enter a space between words. If necessary, move it to the left to delete an entry.

When entering an address, the system searches the database 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 name entry for you. If the system finds more than one entry that matches your input, a list of these matches is displayed.

Tip: When entering a name of a city, street, or place, or if you are unsure of the spelling of the name, enter the letters that you are sure of, then move the Interface Dial up to select LIST. The system will display a list of names that most closely match your input.

NOTE: The voice command names that can be used for each letter are shown below. For additional keyboard symbols, see page 147.

NOTE: If you press the MENU button while en route, the MENU screen (Route) will be displayed. To enter the destination, select the Enter destination by tab by moving the Interface Dial to the left.

Address (see page 23) This selection requires you to enter the city (and possibly the state) and the address that you want to go to.

Address Book (see page 27) This selection allows you to select a stored address. The system can store up to a combined total of 200 User 1 and User 2 addresses.

Places (see page 28) The system has been programmed with the locations of many businesses, parks, hospitals, etc. This selection lets you search these by category, name, phone number, or Zagat 2011 (for restaurants).

Intersection (see page 35) This selection allows you to enter the names of two intersecting streets in a city. This is useful if you know the general location of your destination, but not the exact address.

Previous Destinations (see page 39) When you enter a destination with any of the available selections (except Address Book and Go Home), the last 50 destinations are saved by the system. Use this selection to choose a destination again.

NOTE: If Previous Destinations is grayed out, there are no Previous Destinations entered.

Map Input (see page 40) This selection allows you to point to a destination on the map using the Interface Dial. This allows you to enter a destination or address that may not be listed in the database.

By Address After you select Address from the MENU screen (Enter destination by), the display changes to:

Tip: When entering an address by voice, it

is more efficient to say the city name first, then the street name.

When entering an address by the Interface Dial, it is usually easier to enter the street first. A city or cities that the street appears in will be displayed. For your convenience, you do not have to enter both city and street.

NOTE: If you find that your city is not listed,

it may be part of a larger metropolitan area. Try entering the street first.

Prior to departure, you can set areas to avoid. The system then includes them in its calculations for the destination you have entered. See Edit Avoid Area on page 91.

Selecting the State or Province The state you are in is displayed at the top of the screen. If your desired destination is in another state, select CHANGE STATE by moving the Interface Dial down.

The display then changes to the Select a state screen. Use the voice control system and say the name of the state, or rotate the Interface Dial knob to select the state.

Selecting the City This is helpful if the street runs through several cities, and you know what city includes the street. The city you are in is displayed on the screen. If the city you want is displayed on the screen, say Select current city. If your desired destination is in another city, say or enter that city.

By Voice Control: Say City on the Find address by screen, and the display changes to the Say city name screen. Say the city name and the searching will begin.

NOTE: To improve voice recognition when saying the city name, pronounce the syllables as clearly as possible.

To enter the city name by voice spelling, say or select CHANGE TO SPELL MODE on the Say city name screen, and the display will change to the Enter city name screen.

Say the city name by saying individual letters, or words that represent the letters, one at a time.

The system has a talk back function. If your spoken letter is not recognized, the system will talk back to you. For example, if you say E but the system does not recognize the command, it will ask you, Please select the number of the input letter from the list, and the following pop-up box will appear:

You should select a letter by saying the number.

Alternatively, to improve voice recognition, you can say Echo or Edward instead of E. See page 16 for a list of available words for each letter.

By Interface Dial: Select City, and the display then changes to the Enter city name screen. Use the Interface Dial to enter the name of the city.

The system will display a list of city names, with the closest match to the name you entered at the top of the list. Select the number (1-6) of the desired city from the list.

Listings of cities and towns in the non- detailed coverage area may have an asterisk * next to their names. If you select one, a pop-up box is displayed saying, No detailed street data..., and a street address cannot be entered (see Map Coverage on page 112). Try entering the street first, and then select the city if available.

Select View Dest. Map and use the Interface Dial to select an icon, approximate area, or street you wish to choose as your destination. Otherwise, a central location of the city will be selected. If you select a point of interest (POI) or road in an unverified area, you may or may not have routing in these areas. See Map Overview on page 6.

Selecting the Street By Voice Control: After you have selected the city, or if you say Street on the Find address by screen, the display changes to the Say street name screen. Say the street name and the searching will begin.

To enter the name of a major highway, you must use the full name, including a hyphen. For interstates, use an I (I- 10). For U.S. highways, use US (US- 18). For state highways, use the two character state designation (CA-101). For county roads, use the appropriate designation (G-2, for example).

Tip: When entering a street, you do not need to enter the direction (N, S, E, W) or the type (St, Ave, etc.). The system will automatically determine that for you, based on your entered city and street number.

The system will display a list of street names, with the closest match to the name you entered at the top of the list. Select the number (1-6) of the desired street from the list.

You can also use the Interface Dial to enter the street number.

Some address numbers may not be available on the selected street. For example, lets say the individual address ranges for a selected street name are 1 - 20 and 9,000 - 10,000, with an overall range shown on the display of 1 to 10,000. If you try to enter a number outside the individual address ranges such as 500, the system will show this number as unavailable (grayed out).

When using the Interface Dial, the system only allows you to choose available address numbers.

When using voice control, the system beeps if you try to select an unavailable (grayed out) address number.

If you did not select a city in the beginning, the street name you selected might appear in more than one city. The system will give you a list of cities that the street appears in. Select the desired city from the list. The system then displays the Calculate route to screen (see Driving to Your Destination on page 46).

Tip: If the particular address you want cannot be found, select Map Input on the MENU screen (Enter destination by) and use the Interface Dial to select the appropriate location on the map (see By Map Input on page 40).

Select View Dest. Map and use the Interface Dial to select an icon, approximate area, or street you wish to choose as your destination. Otherwise, a central location of the street will be selected. If you select a point of interest (POI) or road in an unverified area, you may or may not have routing in these areas. See Map Overview on page 6.

Only telephone numbers stored in the system under the Places (of business) option are recognized. The system does not contain residential telephone numbers, or numbers you may have entered in your personal Address Book.

Tip: If you know the phone number of a point of interest (POI), its uniqueness makes it the fastest entry method.

Changing Routing Method The system lets you select the way you want to drive to your destination. Before selecting OK to calculate a route, you can change the routing method by moving the Interface Dial down. The route choices will appear in the address box.

NOTE: When you are en route and want to change the routing method, press the MENU button, and select Change Method on the MENU screen (Route).

Direct Route (the factory default) is the route that is the quickest (least time) and is usually the best choice. If you choose any other method, it becomes the new default for all future routing. Make sure to check the routing method if the displayed route is not what you expected to see.

Easy Route produces a route with the least turns.

Maximize Freeways, Minimize Freeways, and Minimize Toll Roads are also available.

Map Orientation The map can be orientated two ways:

North-up: North pointing up as you would normally view a paper map.

Heading-up: The map constantly rotates so the road you are driving on always points up (as you see the road through your front windshield).

NOTE: The red arrow in both heading symbols always shows the direction north.

Push in on the Interface Dial on the map or guidance screen and select North-up or Heading-up to switch between the available orientation, or say Display heading up or Display north up.

In the larger map scales (above 1 mile or 1.6 kilometer), the map is always oriented with north facing upward. You cannot change the orientation.

NOTE: For information on the available voice commands, see Voice Command Index on page 140.

Destination Icon The destination icon only 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). 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). Therefore, the address 1425 will be shown a quarter of the way down the block by the system instead of near the end of the block where the destination is actually located.

Tip: When en route, you can view a map showing your destination. Using voice control, say Display destination map.

For instance, lets assume that hospital icons are not displayed on the map, and you want to make sure that your settings are correct. You would do the following:

First, you would ensure that the OTHER ICON button on the Icon bar is blue (see Icon Bar on page 60).

Second, you select ICON OPTIONS and verify that the hospital option is also on (blue). This procedure is explained below.

If you select Other Icons from the Select category for icon settings screen, the other icon options are displayed:

In the previous example, only POST OFFICE and SCHOOL are selected and will show up on the map. To also see HOSPITAL on the map, this would need to be turned on by first selecting it and then pushing in on the Interface Dial to select it so it appears as below.

Exit, and save your settings by moving the Interface Dial to the right (DONE).

Going Off the Route If you leave the calculated route, Recalculating... is displayed at the top of the screen. The system will recalculate the route from your current location and direction to the desired destination, and then give you a new route instruction. This is done automatically if you have set Rerouting to AUTOMATIC on the SETUP screen (Other) (see page 86).

If the Rerouting option in SETUP is set to MANUAL, Off route appears at the top of the screen when you leave the calculated route. Say Recalculate or select Recalculation whenever you want the system to perform a recalculation.

Off-road Tracking If you drive more than half a mile from a mapped road, Not on a digitized road appears at the bottom of the screen.

The map screen starts displaying a series of dots (breadcrumbs) to show the path you have taken if Off-road Tracking on the SETUP screen (Other) is set to ON (see page 96).

By following the dots, you can backtrack to the mapped road you originally left. Breadcrumbs may occasionally be displayed in urban areas, such as large parking lots in shopping malls, or in new subdivisions where the roads are not yet in the database. In other cases, you may see dots if the system temporarily goes off route, like in a parking garage where the GPS signal is unavailable.

These dots appear only in the 1/20, 1/8, 1/4, and 1/2 mile (or 80, 200, 400, and 800 meter) map scales. Rotate the Interface Dial knob to change scales if necessary.

Tracking continues for approximately 150 miles; dots at the beginning of the trail will start disappearing when you exceed that distance. When you reach a mapped road, the system stops displaying dots.

Viewing/Saving the Current Location Whenever you are on a map screen, you can always obtain your current location either by pushing in on the Interface Dial, selecting Show Icon on Map, and selecting Current Location, or by using the voice control system and saying Display current location. A screen pops up which shows the address of your current location, as well as the latitude, longitude, and elevation.

NOTE: The elevation will not appear when the system is temporarily lacking proper GPS information. The system elevation may not agree with elevations shown on roadside elevation signs, and may fluctuate plus or minus 100 feet or more.

You can store the current location for later use. It does not change or cancel your current route.

For example, you are following the systems directions to get to a destination. While sitting at a stoplight you notice a store on the corner, but do not have time to visit it right now. You can save the location to select as a destination at a later date.

To save the location, say Save current location or select Save on the Current location screen. When you select User 1 or User 2, the Edit address book screen with the current location data will appear. You can edit the name, phone number, or category name to be saved in your personal Address Book.

After the location is saved, select Return to return to the map screen. You can then use Address Book from the MENU screen (Enter destination by) to select the saved location and return to the same spot.

Search Waypoint Waypoints allow you to add an interim pit stop while traveling to a destination. For instance, you may want to stop for gas or food, and then continue on to your destination. Although you can enter up to five waypoints at a time, typically you may never use more than one at a time. Waypoints are routed to in the order they were entered (number 1 first, etc.), with your final destination routed to last. If you wish to create a custom route of several destinations, and then control the order of routing, the function Todays Destinations is probably a better choice (see By Todays Destinations on page 43).

When you enter waypoints, they appear on the map screen as small red flags numbered 1-5.

Adding Waypoint From the MENU screen (Route), if you say or select Search Waypoint, then the Select a search method screen is displayed. Select either Places Along the Route or Places Around the Destination.

Next, select your Waypoint Category, then follow the menu prompts to select a destination. When the system performs a search from Places Along the Route, it displays matches that lie within a corridor on either side and in front of you along your route.

Avoid Street From the MENU screen (Route), if you say or select Avoid Street, the system displays a list of streets that will get you to your destination. This feature allows you to avoid a street or streets along your route. This is helpful if you know of road construction, closures, or excessive traffic along the route. Simply select the street or streets you wish to avoid. You cannot avoid your current street, or the streets of your waypoint(s) or destination (system beeps if selected).

NOTE: Although you can choose streets to avoid, you cannot choose specific streets you want to use.

Detour Calculates a detour route for you if you encounter an unexpected obstacle such as a closed road or extremely heavy traffic congestion. If a detour is selected, the system will attempt to recalculate a new route, avoiding the next 2 miles (while on a freeway) or 1/2 mile (while on a surface street).

Unverified Area Routing Allows you to receive turn-by-turn map and voice guidance in unverified areas when en route to a destination (see Map Overview on page 6). The chart below illustrates the routing differences with this setting ON or OFF.

Unverified Area Routing: OFF (factory default) Unverified Area Routing: ON

Decision: Why choose ON or OFF?

The driver wishes to navigate manually by using the navigation map and choosing the streets that lead to the destination. The driver understands that unverified roads may not be accurate, and can contain errors in location, naming, and address range.

The driver chooses to let the navigation system suggest possible routing. The driver understands that in some cases, guidance may not be appropriate. Unverified roads may not be accurate, and can contain errors in location, naming, and address range.

What you will see...

A blue dotted vector line is displayed on the map that continually points to your destination. The driver should stop and then use the map to select streets that lead to the destination.

A blue-pink dashed route line highlights suggested unverified streets on the map while traveling to your destination. This is in sharp contrast to the normal blue route line displayed in verified areas.

Cautionary messages

There are cautionary pop-up screens and voice announcements, before and during the route. These serve as reminders that you should obey all traffic restrictions.

There are cautionary pop-up screens and voice announcements, before and during the route. These serve as reminders that you should exercise additional caution, and obey all traffic restrictions.

Guidance (map/voice)

There is no turn-by-turn map or voice guidance. Voice guidance commands end with the words if possible. This is to remind the driver to verify all traffic restrictions before making a maneuver.

Directions list A direction list is typically not available. However, depending on your route, directions are provided to help you reach the first available verified road.

A direction list is provided showing street names and turn symbols in pink.

Unverified Area Routing When driving to your destination, you have the choice of using or not using unverified roads. You make this choice in the SETUP screen. The next few pages contain an example of a route to a destination in an unverified area explaining the routing differences found in unverified areas.

With Unverified Area Routing OFF, the system tries to use verified roads whenever possible. In this example, since only verified streets are used, it created a longer route than necessary.

With Unverified Area Routing ON, the route is shorter, but consists of unverified (light colored) streets that may not be accurate. Because the streets are unverified, there may be errors in street location, name, or address range. Additional caution is recommended in these areas. Always obey posted traffic restrictions.

Because both routes bypass or use unverified streets, an initial Disclaimer screen is provided. It is recommended that you stop and review the map.

Unverified Area Routing OFF

Unverified Area Routing ON

NOTE: Unverified roads are shown only when viewing the map in the 1/20, 1/8, and 1/4 mile map scales, or the 80, 200, and 400 meter map scales.

With Unverified Area Routing ON, a caution box appears on the screen and is read by the voice. In this case, you will be presented with a dashed blue/ pink line instead of the regular blue route line. This is your signal to pay attention to posted traffic restrictions. You cannot assume that all guidance is appropriate.

In both cases, when you actually enter the unverified street, a short caution will remind you. You will see and hear this short caution message whenever you enter unverified areas.

Accord 2D4D_KA 31TA5840

System Setup

After you have traveled approximately 1/2 mile away from a mapped road, the system will display a series of white dots on the map screen to show the path you have traveled. This is provided so you can follow the dots to backtrack to the mapped road you originally left. Tracking continues until you reach a mapped road. See Off-road Tracking on page 62.

Tracking is shown only in the 1/20, 1/8, 1/4, and 1/2 mile scales, or the 80, 200, 400, and 800 meter scales. Rotate the Interface Dial knob to change the scales if necessary.

NOTE: To clear existing dots, turn this feature off and exit SETUP. To re-enable this feature, return to SETUP and turn it on again.

Correct Vehicle Position The system relies on satellites for positioning information. Buildings, tunnels, and other objects can block or reflect these signals, requiring the system to use dead reckoning to determine your location and direction. This can sometimes lead to small errors in positioning, such as showing you on an adjacent street.

NOTE: Using this function to adjust vehicle position is not recommended. When the system acquires a GPS signal, it will automatically place the vehicle in the correct location.

If you choose to do this, follow these steps:

1. Stop the vehicle.

2. Select Correct Vehicle Position, and the system will display a map adjustment screen.

3. Use the Interface Dial to move the vehicle position arrowhead to the correct location, and push in on the Interface Dial. The display will change to:

System Initialization

System Initialization If 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 Code If the battery goes dead or is disconnected for any reason, you will have to enter a security code for both the audio system and the navigation system before you can use it again.

When you purchased the vehicle, you should have received two cards containing the audio and navigation systems 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. If you have entered it correctly, the display changes to the Disclaimer screen. If you make a mistake, the system will display INCORRECT PIN. Re-enter your 4-digit security code. 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 your Owners 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).

Accord 2D4D_KA 31TA5840

System Initialization

GPS Initialization Depending 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 17). 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.

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 instructions on the screen, or contact your local dealer for assistance.

NOTE: The average acquiring time is less than 10 minutes, but it can take as long as 45 minutes.

Map Matching This 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 entire procedure is complete. Your system is now ready to use.

The navigation system lost power and is acquiring its location from the GPS satellites. This usually takes less than 10 minutes. * Start the engine. * Park the vehicle in an open area away from trees, power lines, and tall buildings. * Remove loose articles, cell phones, or electrical accessories located near the GPS antenna. * If this screen is displayed repeatedly when starting the vehicle, see your dealer.

Something is interfering with the systems ability to acquire its location. Check the following: * The vehicle must be in an open area with a clear view of the sky. * Remove sources of GPS interference like metallic window tint above antenna, or electrical items near antenna (see owner's manual for details). * Check GPS antenna cable connection. * Restart the engine and repeat the GPS acquire procedure. If the problem persists, see your dealer.

System Limitations

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 Defense. 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 circumstances, correct itself while you drive.

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 Issues The 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 on the passenger's side of the rear shelf)

Cell phones, PDAs, or other electronic devices docked in a cradle or lying loose on the rear shelf

Radar detectors mounted on the rear shelf

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 Routing Method on page 47. You may also have Unverified Area Routing set to OFF. See Unverified Area Routing on page 87.

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.

106 Navigation System

Accord 2D4D_KA 31TA5840

System Limitations

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 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.

Navigation System 107

Accord 2D4D_KA 31TA5840

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 hospital services.

Every effort has been made to verify that the systems database was accurate at the time it was created. However, businesses do close or relocate, and new businesses start in the 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, changing 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 110.

In addition, this database does not include, analyze, process, 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

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 online at http://update.navteq.com/.

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 128, System Limitations on page 105, or Troubleshooting on page 135.

Coverage Areas

Operation in Alaska and Hawaii Certain functions that rely on a satellite signal will not work correctly 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.

XM Radio Navigation vehicles delivered to Hawaii are equipped with XM hardware, but XM broadcasting is not available; therefore sections of the manual that mention XM audio do not apply. Vehicles originally delivered to the U.S. mainland and shipped to Hawaii also have XM, but will not function because the XM satellites (aimed toward the U.S. mainland) are too far away to obtain reception.

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, 87).

Cautions and pop-up windows related to unverified roads (see page 64).

Setup entries that relate to turning on or off unverified routing (see page 88).

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 112).

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 (Main Setup) is set to normal or maximum, street names will not be spoken in voice guidance commands.

Setup Screen Differences The SETUP screen differences are minor and are listed below. See the Setup section (page 77) for additional information.

Routing and Guidance (Unverified Area Routing On/Off) This feature is unavailable. All roads displayed on the map are verified.

Clock Adjust Screen There is no daylight saving time for Hawaii. Auto Daylight, Auto Time Zone, and DST Selection will not be shown on the Clock adjustment screen. To test your adjustment, use the voice control system, and say What time is it? (see page 94).

Shipping a Vehicle To or From Hawaii Although the DVD in the vehicle contains maps for both U.S. mainland and Hawaii, the dealer must perform the selection of U.S. mainland or Hawaii for you. When the dealer makes the switch from U.S. mainland to Hawaii or vice versa, the system clears all user data. Make sure to record any personal information that you do not want to lose.

NOTE: Shipping a vehicle from Hawaii to the U.S. mainland If you wish to receive XM audio, you

must call XM and set up an account at (800) 852-9696.

Shipping a vehicle from the U.S. mainland to Hawaii If a U.S. mainland-delivered vehicle

is shipped to Hawaii, there is no XM reception. It is necessary to see your Hawaii dealer to allow viewing of local Hawaii maps.

The issues under Operation in Hawaii above apply.

Frequently Asked Questions

Map and Features, Voice Operation, Entering Addresses Problem Solution

Why does the Disclaimer screen need to be displayed every time I start the car? I am the only driver.

The Disclaimer screen reminds you and your guest drivers to always operate the navigation system in a safe manner.

The SETUP or Information screen has grayed out items that I cannot select. Why?

You need to select OK on the Disclaimer screen to view these items. See System Function Diagram on page 21.

I tried entering an address, but the city or street could not be found. Is there any other way to route to the location?

Some cities are lumped in with a major metro area. Try entering the street first. In rural unverified areas or new subdivisions, streets may be missing or only partially numbered. Try selecting the destination directly from the map. See By Map Input on page 40.

When I enter an address, some letters become grayed out. Is this normal?

Yes. As you enter each letter in an address or a point of interest (POI), the system looks in the database to see what letters are possible and grays out letters that do not apply.

How do I delete Personal Addresses, Previous Destinations, or the Home Address?

This is done in the SETUP screen (Other) under Personal Information. See page 79.

I cannot hear the navigation system voice. 1) Ensure that Volume in the SETUP screen (Main Setup) is not OFF. See page 78.

2) Go to Basic Settings in the SETUP screen (Other), and set Voice Recognition Feedback to ON. See page 85.

The voice control system is having difficulty recognizing my voice commands.

Ensure that the vents are not blowing on the microphone on the ceiling, the vehicle is as quiet as possible, and you are using the correct command when speaking (see Improving Voice Recognition on page 14). Say Help at any screen to see a list of the applicable voice commands. If the system cannot recognize your command because of background noise, speak louder.

When the system pronounces the street name in the guidance command or reads the destination address, it sounds strange. What causes this?

The basic guidance phrase uses a studio-recorded voice, but the street name is pronounced by the system using a machine-generated voice. Consequently, the name may be mispronounced or sound strange at times.

Frequently Asked Questions

When I drive at night, the screen is bright and will not switch to the night display mode. Why?

Verify the following: The nighttime dash brightness control is not set to maximum, and Map Color in SETUP is set to Black for Night. See Switching Display Mode Manually on page 99.

The daytime map screen is dark like the night display mode, and it is hard to see. Why?

Verify the following: The Map Color in SETUP is set to White for Day. See Switching Display Mode Manually on page 99.

How can I input my destination using map coordinates? The navigation system was not designed for this. However, you can view the coordinates of an address by pushing in on the Interface Dial, selecting Show Icon on Map, and moving the Interface Dial left to select Current Location. See Map Screen Legend on page 51.

How do I change or remove my PIN? Go to Personal Information in the SETUP screen (Other), and select PIN Number. Select User 1 or User 2 and enter your existing PIN, and then you have the choice to change or remove the PIN. See page 83.

I forgot the PIN for Home, or the PIN for personal addresses (User 1 or User 2). How do I reset it?

PINs are optional. See information regarding PINs on page 83. Your dealer can reset the PIN for you.

CALL is not available on the Calculate route to screen. Why?

Your phone is not paired to HFL, or if your phone is paired, it is in use or does not have good coverage; press the HFL BACK button.

Frequently Asked Questions

Guidance, Routing Problem Solution

The navigation does not route me the same way I would go, or the way some other mapping program displays. Why is this?

The navigation system attempts to generate the optimum route. See Changing Routing Method on page 47.

Why is the street Im on not shown on the map? It has been here for more than a year.

The mapping database is constantly undergoing revision. See page 112 for ways to obtain the latest detailed coverage information.

The vehicle position icon is not following the road, and the GPS icon text in the upper left hand corner of the screen is white or missing.

The GPS antenna (located on the passenger's side of the rear shelf) may be blocked by personal items. For best reception, remove items from the rear shelf, such as radar detectors, cell phones, or loose articles.

Metallic tinting or other aftermarket devices can interfere with the GPS reception. Please see your dealer. Also see System Limitations on page 105.

I entered a destination, but the blue highlighted route and voice guidance stopped, or turned into a blue/pink dashed line before I got to my destination. Why is this?

Your route has entered an unverified area. See Unverified Area Routing on page 87.

The map rotates while I make turns. How can I stop this? Select the North-up map orientation by voice, or by selecting North-up from the Map menu. See Map Orientation on page 57.

Sometimes, I cannot select between the North-up and Heading-up map orientations. Why is this?

The Heading-up map orientation can only be shown in the lower scales (1/20 - 1 mile scales). See Map Scale on page 56.

While driving to my destination, the time to go display sometimes increases, even though I am getting closer.

The Time to go is based on actual road speeds. However if your speed slows down when you encounter slower traffic, the system updates the Time to go based on your actual speed to give you a better estimate of arrival time.

The vehicle position icon on the map lags a short distance behind, especially when I arrive at an intersection. Is there anything wrong?

No. When at an intersection, the system is unaware of the width of the intersecting road. Large differences in vehicle position can indicate a temporary loss of the GPS signal. See GPS Reception Issues on page 105.

Frequently Asked Questions

While I drive, my screen shows white dots (breadcrumbs) on it. What do they mean?

These are called breadcrumbs. If you drive more than 1/2 mile from mapped roads, the off-road tracking feature begins to function. See Off-road Tracking on pages 62 and 96.

How can I get rid of the white dots (breadcrumbs) from my screen?

Go to Vehicle in the SETUP screen (Other), and set Off-road Tracking to OFF, then return to the map. See page 96.

A road that I selected to avoid is being used when routing. What is wrong?

When you draw your area to avoid, make sure to select sections of roads that include at least one intersection. See page 91.

When I arrive at my destination, the bulls-eye is shown at a different location on the street. Why?

The system calculates the bulls-eye location based on the street address range allocated for that street. See Destination Icon on page 57 for an example.

My elevation (shown when I display the current position) seems to fluctuate even though my elevation has not changed.

This is normal and due to errors in satellite position. The elevation can vary +/- 100 feet. See System Limitations on page 105.

My elevation is missing on the current position screen. Why?

If the GPS antenna cannot receive at least four satellites, the elevation is not displayed. Try moving the vehicle into an open area. If the elevation is zero or below sea level, the elevation is also not displayed.

Frequently Asked Questions

Ordering a Navigation DVD, Coverage, Map Errors, Limitations Problem Solution

I want to buy a new DVD. How do I purchase one? You cannot obtain a new DVD from the dealer. See Obtaining a Navigation Update DVD on page 110.

I want to order a DVD. How can I determine the DVD version in my navigation system?

The version is on the label of your DVD. It starts with Ver:. See Changing the DVD on page 111.

I got a navigation DVD from a friend or an online source, but it does not work. Why?

Your vehicle was designed to use a white DVD. DVDs with differently colored labels or from different manufacturers will not operate correctly. Always obtain DVDs from the DVD order desk. See page 110.

When is my city going to become part of a fully verified detailed coverage area?

The mapping database vendor is constantly revising map coverage. See page 112 for ways to obtain the latest detailed coverage information.

Will the navigation system work outside North America? The navigation system contains maps only for the lower 48 U.S. states, Hawaii, and portions of southern Canada. The system will not work in Mexico, Alaska, or overseas. Canada coverage is limited. See Map Coverage on page 112.

I moved my vehicle from the U.S. mainland to Hawaii (or from Hawaii to the U.S. mainland). Why does my navigation system not show the correct map?

The coverage area (Hawaii or U.S. mainland) must be selected by your dealer.

Can I play video DVDs in my navigation system? No. The navigation system is designed only to read the white DVD provided with your vehicle. Map discs for other vehicle manufacturers or PC map programs will not work.

I found some errors in the database. How do I report them? Minor errors are bound to occur in a large database. If you encounter major errors, you can report them following the instructions on page 109.

Frequently Asked Questions

Display, Accessories

Rear Camera

Miscellaneous Other Questions

Problem Solution

The display appears dim when starting the car in really cold weather. Is there a problem?

No. This is normal, and it will become brighter after a few minutes.

Problem Solution

When I shift gears, the rear camera image is delayed. When shifting into or out of reverse, you may experience delays when the screen image switches between the navigation screen and the rear camera image. This is normal.

The rear camera image is too dark or too bright. How do I adjust the brightness?

While the camera image is displayed, use the rotating portion of the Interface Dial (knob) to adjust the brightness. This adjustment does not affect the SETUP screen brightness adjustments.

Problem Solution

My clock frequently changes forward and backward by one hour. Why is this?

The clock is being automatically set based on your GPS location. If you live and work on the boundary between two time zones, you can turn off this feature. See page 95.

When driving near a time zone border, the time changes even though I am not near the time zone. Why is this?

The time zone borders are only approximated in the system. Depending on the geography of the time zone boundary, the switch to a different zone can be erratic. See page 95.

My state does not observe daylight saving time. How do I turn off this feature?

You can turn off this feature. See page 95.

Frequently Asked Questions

Daylight saving time occurred, but the navigation system did not change time even though SETUP shows Auto Daylight is ON.

Go to the Clock adjustment screen in SETUP and select DST Selection. Ensure that the correct DST schedule is selected. For more information, see Clock Adjustment on page 94.

The navigation system automatic daylight time feature is not switching the navigation system clock on the correct dates. Why is this?

1) Go to the Clock adjustment screen in SETUP and ensure that Auto Daylight is ON.

2) The navigation system is designed to switch to daylight saving time according to the months selected in the DST schedule selection screen. Ensure that the appropriate schedule is selected. For more information, see Clock Adjustment on page 94.

The navigation system clock switched by one hour for no apparent reason. What can cause this?

1) You may be driving near a time zone boundary (see Auto Daylight on page 95).

2) The navigation system does not switch between standard and daylight saving time. Set Auto Daylight to ON on the Clock adjustment screen in SETUP, and ensure that the correct month switching schedule is chosen on the DST schedule selection screen. See page 95 for more information.

My battery was disconnected or went dead, and the navigation system is asking for a code. Where do I find this code?

There should be a card in the glove box with the anti-theft code for the navigation/audio system. This card contains the 4-digit security code and serial number. If you cannot find it, your dealer can help you out.

I speak a language other than English. When will other languages be available for the navigation system?

This is being considered as a future enhancement.
