NAVIGATION MANUAL

The information and specifications included in this publication were in effect at the time of approval for printing. Honda Motor Co., Ltd., reserves the right,

however, to discontinue or change specifications or design at any time without notice and without incurring any obligation.

Accessories Precautions

The GPS antenna is located on the roof. Trees, tall buildings, highway overpasses, tunnels, or overhead electrical power wires can easily interrupt or interfere GPS reception.

Signal noise from devices such as radar detectors, vehicle tracking devices, remote starters, and additional amplifiers can disrupt the navigation system. If you

install any such item, install it away from the navigation display and antenna.

Important Safety Information

Avoid focusing on the screen or manually operating the system controls while driving.

Certain on-screen controls are disabled when driving, however most of the voice commands continue to function. Pull to the side of the road if you need to devote

more attention and time to look at the screen or access additional menus.

Route guidance may conflict with street closures, road construction, detours, and out-of-date map data.

The system itself may also have limitations. Verify route information by carefully observing roads, signs, and signals. Always use your own judgment and obey

traffic laws.

Quick Reference Guide

Troubleshooting

For more Information (P69 )

Why does the vehicle position icon on the map appear

slightly off my actual position, especially at intersections?

This is normal. The navigation system is unaware of the

width of intersections. Large differences in vehicle position

can indicate a temporary loss of the GPS signal.

Why does the “Arrival time” display sometimes increase

even though I am getting closer to my destination?

The “Arrival time” is based on the speed limit on each

road. Depending on the traffic conditions, the “Arrival

time” may be calculated to be earlier or later.

Why does my clock frequently change the time forward

and backward by one hour?

●

The clock setting is automatically updated based on

your GPS location. If you are driving near a time zone

border, the automatic update likely is the reason.

●

You can set time manually. Press the (Home)

button and then select Settings > System > Date &

Time > Set Date & Time > Set Time. Adjust hours

and minutes.

For more information, see the Owner's Manual.

How do I turn on the navigation system voice guidance?

●

Adjust the volume using the volume knob during the

voice guidance.

●

Press the (Home) button.

Select Navigation > MENU > Voice Guidance

Volume. Turn up the volume if it is low.

How do I specify a destination when an entered city or

street could not be found?

Try selecting the destination directly from the map.
