System Updates Terms and Conditions*
General
Your vehicle has an application that allows your 9-in. Color
Touchscreen to automatically search for Honda software updates
that are specific to your 9-in. Color Touchscreen and its connected
devices (initially every one (1) week via Wi-Fi or every four (4) weeks
via Telematics Control Unit (TCU)*, queries may occur more or less
frequently due to internet outages, retries, direct user action, WAP
push from the server or a change in query policy on the Honda
servers). This application periodically transmits to our servers a
limited amount of vehicle and device information (Vehicle
Identification Number (VIN), the Model Type (MT) Identification
Number, Hardware and Software Part Number, Serial Number,
Software Version, preferred language, Internet Protocol (IP)
address, Transaction Log (alert or update viewing, update
download and installation, software status), etc.). When the
application finds an update from the server, the application initially
asks permission to download and install the update. Where
available, in your settings menu you may elect to automatically
download and install these updates or you may elect to manually
update the system.
When your 9-in. Color Touchscreen searches our servers for
updates or alerts, we will automatically provide you with the
opportunity to update your devices or transmit the update or alert
directly to your 9-in. Color Touchscreen. We will also maintain on
our servers a log of the updates or alerts that are installed.
