Introduction
Your Acura Navigation System is a highly-sophisticated location system 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, 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 and longitude of your car.
In addition, a gyroscopic sensor and a speed sensor in your car keep track of the direction and speed of travel at all times.
The Navigation System applies this 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 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 pressing only one or two of the controls.
If a desired destination is not in the system's database, you can enter its address and the system will direct you to it. This destination can be saved for reuse at a later date.
As you drive, the Navigation System provides visual and audio driving instructions so you do not have to take your eyes off the road. These instructions are provided in advance of the actual driving maneuver so you have time to slow down and change lanes if necessary.
Read this manual thoroughly so you are familiar with all the Navigation
System's features. Afterwards, keep this manual in the glove box of your vehicle so you can refer to at any time.

Important Safety Information
The Navigation System can distract your attention from the road if you focus on the screen or operate the system's controls while driving.
You should always enter information into the system before you begin driving. Then, as you drive, you can listen to the audio instructions or glance at the screen.
Operating the Navigation
System controls while you are driving can take your attention away from the road, causing a crash in which you could be seriously injured or killed.
Enter information into the system only when your car is stopped.
Introduction
The Navigation System is designed to provide route information to help you reach your destination. However, this route guidance may sometimes conflict with road conditions such as street closures, road construction, and detours.
Additionally, the system itself has certain limitations (see page 66 ).
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.
