Introduction

Manual Overview

The manual is divided into the following sections:

• Getting started - A basic introduction that discusses the controls and how to communicate with the system.

• Entering a Destination - How to enter an address or locate a point of interest

(POI).

• Driving to your Destination - An explanation of the map features, guidance, and cautions.

• Information Features - Voice

Command Help, Map Legend,

Calendar, and Calculator.

• System Set-up - How to set up and tailor the system for your personal use and use the Address Book.

The back of this manual contains:

• Map Coverage (page 106 )

• Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

(page 117 )

• Troubleshooting Guide (page 127 )

• Glossary of Terms (page 128 )

• Voice Command List (page 131 )

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.

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 map and voice guidance.

4


2008 CR- V

Main Menu

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 touch screen, joystick 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 front 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 under the dashboard.

If you plan to install electronic components such as radar detectors, vehicle location devices, remote starters, additional amplifiers, or other audio components ensure that they are not located near the navigation control unit under the dashboard, near the navigation screen in the dash, or near the GPS antenna under the dashboard.

Signal noise emanating from these devices can cause intermittent disruption of the navigation system.

Introduction

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.

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.

2008 CR- V

Main Menu

Introduction

WARNING

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.

Follow all operating instructions and safety information in this manual.

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 97 ).

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, appears at the bottom of the map screen (see page 18 ). 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 59 .

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 .

Verified streets (dark colored)

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

Unverified streets (light colored)

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

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

Shown on the daytime map screen as light brown.

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.

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

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.

Voice guidance issues maneuvers such as “In a half mile make a right turn.”

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

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

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 81 .

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 81 ).

The suffix “if possible” is added to each guidance maneuver. For example: “In a half mile make a right turn, if possible.”

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.

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 system. The voice control system uses the

NAVI

TALK

and

NAVI BACK

buttons on the steering wheel and a microphone near the map light on the ceiling.

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 131 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 the navigation system commands only.

However, it can be used to cancel an audio voice command up to one second after the command confirmation.

NOTE:

While using the voice control system, all of the speakers are muted.

12


2008 CR- V

Main Menu

Using the Voice Control System

You should use the voice control system as much as possible, and consider manual entry using the joystick as a

“back-up” method of entry.

Most of the system’s functions can be controlled by voice commands activated with the

NAVI TALK

button. To control your navigation system by voice:

• Press and release the

NAVI TALK

button.

• Wait for the beep.

• 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 not sure of what voice commands are available on a screen, you can always say “Help” at any screen. The system can then read the list of commands to you.

When you speak 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.

Getting Started

If you hear a prompt such as “Please use the touch screen to...” or “Please choose an area with the joystick.” the system is asking for input that cannot be performed using the voice control system.

Improving Voice Recognition

To achieve optimum voice recognition, 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

131 .

• Adjust the airflow from both the dashboard and side vents so they do not blow against the microphone on the ceiling. Place your hand over the microphone; if you feel any airflow, adjust the vents.

• Lower the A/C fan speed during voice recognition operation.

• Close the windows and the sunroof.

2008 CR- V


13

Main Menu

Getting Started

• After pressing and releasing the

NAVI TALK

button, wait for the beep, then give a voice command.

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

• If you are still having trouble with the voice control system, refer to

Voice

Command Help

on the

Information

screen.

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.

• Touch the desired item on the screen.

• Move the highlighting to the desired item with the joystick, then push in on the joystick.

Tip

If items are grayed out (very dark colored), this means that they cannot be selected.

Selecting an Item in a List

To scroll through a list, do one of the following:

• Use the joystick to scroll through the list item by item.

• Use the voice control system and say

“Next” or “Previous” or use the “on screen” scroll up or down buttons, or the

ZOOM

buttons 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.

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.

• Touch the item on the screen.

• Use the joystick to move the highlighting to the item, then push in on the joystick.

Using the On-screen

Keyboard

When the system needs input from you, the display changes to a keyboard. Use the displayed letters to enter the information. Enter each letter by one of the following methods:

• Using the voice control system, say the desired letter on the screen.

• Move the highlighting to the desired letter using the joystick, then push in on the joystick.

• Touch the desired letter on the screen.

When speaking the letters or using

“spell mode,” you can substitute the name that represents each letter or symbol. This improves recognition. The system will only respond to the names shown in the following graphic.

For example:

• To select the letter “A”: Say, “

A

”;

“

Alpha

”; or “

Apple

.”

• To select the letter “M”: Say, “

Changing the Routing Method

The system lets you select the way you want to drive to your destination. Select the desired method using the

CHANGE

METHOD

scroll bar back ( ) or forward ( ) buttons.

• “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.

NOTE:

If the trip is greater than 100 miles, then

“Minimize Freeways” and “Minimize

Toll Roads” may be grayed out. This is normal.


The generated route may not be the route you would choose. For safety reasons, the system generally applies the following rules to your route:

• It tries to avoid “short cuts” through residential areas.

• Right turns are favored over left turns or U-turns.

• Restricted turns (turns that cannot be made during certain hours), are not used for routing during any time of the day.

Distance and Time to

When you select a destination, the distance to the destination is the actual road distance of the calculated route, and “not as the crow flies.” When viewing a list of destinations (points of interest), such as restaurants, the distance is “as the crow flies” (see Sort

by Distance to Travel on page 34 ).

The displayed time to destination may differ from the actual travel time because the time is calculated based on the posted road speed data and your current speed. If part of your route includes unverified roads, the “distance” and “time to go” for that portion is estimated using 25 mph as an average speed.

Split Screen Guidance

When on route to a destination, you have two display options: single screen mode (the factory default) and the split screen mode.

Single screen mode – a map is displayed with occasional guidance pop-up windows as you approach a maneuver.

Split screen mode – the map is always displayed on the left of the screen, and the maneuver or direction list is displayed on the right hand side of the screen.

Guidance mode can be changed in either

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.) 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).

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 on a route, you can view a map showing your destination. Using voice control, say “Display destination map.”

Landmark Icons

Landmark icons are shown in the map screen on 1/20 and 1/8 mile scale, or 80 and 200 meter scale. The Freeway exit information is displayed on the 1/4, 1/2, and 1 mile scales. The icons are:

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 then give you a new route instruction. This is done automatically if you have set

Rerouting

to

Automatic

on the Setup screen (second) (see page 80 ).

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 touch the

Recalculation

button 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 (second) is set to

On

(see page 88 ).


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 temporary 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.

Use the

ZOOM

buttons 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 touching the Vehicle Position icon 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 system’s directions to get to a destination. While sitting at a stoplight you notice a curio shop 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 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

Address Book.

After the location is saved, select

Unverified Area Routing: Off

(factory default)

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.

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.

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 is no turn-by-turn map or voice guidance.

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

Unverified Area Routing: On

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.

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.

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.

Voice guidance commands end with the words “If possible.”

This is to remind the driver to verify all traffic restrictions before making a maneuver.

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 Setup screen (second). 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

NOTE:

• You can select areas to avoid, however you cannot select roads or areas that you want the system to use for routing.

• If you are drawing a box around a road as an area to avoid, ensure the following: When you draw the box, make sure that the road or portion of a road that you encircled includes an intersection. For instance, in the example below, highway 213 will be avoided, but Van Ness will not be avoided because it lacks an intersection in the enclosed box.

Edit Waypoint Search Area

When driving on route to your destination, you can select a temporary destination “waypoint” (marked with a small flag on the map) along your route for gas, a restaurant, or other POI. When you resume your trip from the

“waypoint,” the system continues the trip to your original destination. To use this feature, see Waypoints on page 62 .

This Setup item allows you to select the distance from your highlighted route line (on either side of your route), that the system will search for a “waypoint.”

From the

1/4, and 1/2 mile, or the 80, 200, 400, and 800 meter scales. Use the

ZOOM

buttons 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

Adjust

, and the system will display a map adjustment screen.

3. Use the

ZOOM

buttons and the joystick to move the location arrowhead to the correct location.

Touch the arrow buttons on the bottom of the screen to rotate the direction arrows so the vehicle position is pointing in the correct direction.

NOTE:

If you continually have to do this, there are either problems in the database or

GPS reception problems. See

Accessories Precautions on page

System Initialization

If for any reason, you lose power to the navigation system (like 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 to “unlock” the navigation system.

• 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 the navigation system before you can use it again.

When you purchased the vehicle, you should have received a card that has the system’s security code and serial number. Keep this card in a safe place in case you need the code. If you lose the card, you must obtain the security code from your dealer.


Enter the four-digit security code, then select

Done

. 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 ten chances to enter the correct code. If all ten are incorrect, turn the ignition to OFF, then back to ON (II) to have ten more chances to enter the correct code.

NOTE:

The anti-theft security code is unrelated to your optional Navigation system PIN

(for Personal or Home Address).

2008 CR- V

Main Menu


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:

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.

If this procedure is not necessary, the system proceeds directly to the

Disclaimer


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 changes to the Disclaimer screen. If within ten minutes the system fails to locate a sufficient number of satellites to locate your position, the following screen appears:

Something is interfering with the system’s 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.

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.

96


2008 CR- V

Main Menu

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 signals from the Global

Positioning System (GPS) 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.

Also, 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 the 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 under the dash)

• Cell phones, PDA’s, or other electronic devices docked in a cradle or laying loose on the dash

• Radar detectors mounted on the dash

• Remote starters, or “hidden” vehicle location systems mounted near the navigation unit

• Other aftermarket audio electronic devices mounted near the navigation unit

System Limitations

• 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 the

Routing Method on page 45 ). You may also have Unverified Area Routing set to “OFF” (see Unverified Area Routing on page 81 ).

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.

2008 CR- V


97

Main Menu

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.

98


2008 CR- V

Main Menu

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 system’s database was accurate at the time it was created. However, businesses do fail or move to new locations, 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 102 .

Database Limitations

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

• Road, traffic or traffic facilities safety, or conditions

Visiting Your Dealer

We strive to make this manual as complete as possible and to answer all questions regarding operation of the system. Occasionally you may run into a specific issue that you cannot find in the book. You may save yourself a trip to the dealer by first consulting the following resources:

• The Troubleshooting section (see page 127 )

• The Frequently Asked Questions

(FAQs) section (see page 117 )

• The navi FAQs found on the on-line

DVD order site (see “Obtaining a

Navigation Update DVD”)

• For detailed questions regarding audio or other systems that interact with the navigation system, see the main vehicle Owner’s manual, or the

Quick Start Guide

• Call Honda Customer Relations (see

“Honda Automobile Customer

Service”)

• For database or POI issues, follow the guidelines in the “Reporting Errors” section (see page 101 )

If your question is still unanswered and you wish to visit the dealer, please be prepared to demonstrate the issue to the service advisor. This way, the service advisor can document the issue for the factory to allow more efficient troubleshooting. Some issues may at first seem random, but you may notice a pattern, like it only occurs when you enter some specific address, or when driving on a certain road, or just when it is cold. This information is very useful to the service advisor. Be patient, the tech may be unfamiliar with your specific issue.

PC card (PCMCIA) adaptors and various media chips can be purchased at any computer store. Tested media chips include Compact Flash, and SD media, up to 2GB. Other media types and storage capacities may work, but have not been tested. Hard disc drive type media are not recommended because they can fail in a hot vehicle. See the

FAQs section for additional information.

PC card slot

Inserting the PC Card

Ensure that the PCMCIA PC card adaptor contains the media chip, and that the card adaptor is fully inserted in the slot, otherwise the display door will not close. Once the card is inserted and the door closed, there is a delay while the system reads the tag information

(the folders, song titles, etc.). Once the tag information is read, the “CARD” or

“TRACK LIST” buttons will function.

For more information on the search feature, see the audio section of the

Owner’s Manual.

Voice Control of PC Card

Functions

The navigation voice control system can be used to select the first 30 tracks directly by using the command, “Card play track X” (X=1-30). Additional voice commands allow the card tracks, artists, and albums to be played in a random, repeat, or in a scan mode. See the complete list of “Card” voice commands starting on page 136 .

CD/CD-R Operation with

Navi

A CD or a burned CD-R with MP3 or

WMA media files can be played by the audio system and controlled using the navigation voice commands. The display door will not close with a partially inserted CD in the slot. Once the display closes, there may be a slight delay before the “CD” or “TRACK

LIST” buttons function. This is because the system has to read the tag information (artist album, and track names) to allow searches to function.

For more information on the search feature, see the audio section of the

Owner’s Manual.

NOTE:

Ensure that burned CD-R disc do not have “stick-on” paper labels. The label adhesive can melt in a hot vehicle, and allow the label to curl up and jam the

CD mechanism. Use a felt-tipped marker to label your CD-R discs.

Coverage Areas

Map Coverage

The system provides map coverage for the following 48 US states, and southern

Canada. The US map coverage consists of accurately mapped (verified) metropolitan areas (in the following list), and a less accurate (unverified) rural database. Canada coverage consists of major metropolitan areas, and major roads connecting the metropolitan areas within about 100 miles north of the U.S. border. If you need additional North Canada coverage, you may purchase the Canadian DVD

(see Obtaining a Navigation Update

DVD on page 102 ). See Map Overview on page 6 for a discussion of map coverage.

The cities and metropolitan areas in the following list are fully mapped. Only major streets, roads, and freeways have been verified outside these areas. If your route passes through these areas, routing may be limited in these areas, depending on your routing choices (see Unverified

Area Routing on page 81 ).

Frequently Asked Questions

Map, and Features, Voice Operation, Entering Addresses

Problem

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

The Setup or Information screen has “grayed out” items that

I cannot select. Why?

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

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

Solution

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

You need to select

OK

on the Disclaimer screen to view these items. See

System Function Diagram on page 20 .

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 36 .

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.

This is done in Setup, under “Personal Information.” See page 74 .

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

I cannot hear the navigation system voice.

The voice control system is having difficulty recognizing my

Voice commands.

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

What causes this?

1) Ensure that

Volume

in the

Setup

screen (first) is not

Off

. See page 71 .

2) Go to “Basic Settings” in the Setup screen (second), and set

Voice

Recognition Feedback

to

On

. See page 90 .

Ensure that the vents are not blowing on the microphone on the ceiling, place your hand over the microphone; if you feel any airflow, adjust the vents. Ensure the vehicle is as quiet as possible, and that you are using the correct command when speaking (See Improving Voice Recognition on page 13 ). 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.

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.

Problem

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

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

During the day, I turned on the lights because it started to rain, but the screen went dark. How can I make it still display day mode?

How can I input my destination using map coordinates?

How do I change or remove my PIN?

I forget the PIN for Home, or the PIN for personal addresses

(User 1 or User 2). How do I reset it?

Solution

The system thinks it’s in

Day

display mode. Verify the following: The display mode in Setup is set to

Auto

, the dash brightness is not set to maximum (must adjust with the headlights on), and

Map Color

in Setup is set to

Black

for Night. See Display on page 72 .

Verify the following: The display mode in Setup is set to

Auto

, and

Map

Color

in Setup is set to

White

for Day. See Display on page 72 .

Adjust the dash brightness (+) button (with the headlights on) to full brightness. Remember to set it back to a medium setting, or at night, the screen will be bright. See Display on page 72 .

The navigation system was not designed for this. However, you can view the coordinates of an address by touching the vehicle position icon on the map. See Map Screen Legend on page 49 .

Go to “Personal Information” in the Setup screen (second), and select

PIN

Number

. Select User 1 or User 2 and enter your existing PIN. You then have the choice to change or remove the PIN. See page 78 .

PINs are optional. See information regarding PINs on page 78 . Your dealer can reset the PIN for you.

Guidance, Routing

Problem

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

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

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.

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

The map rotates while I make a turns, How can I stop this?

Solution

The navigation system attempts to generate the optimum route. See

Changing the Routing Method on page 45 .

The mapping database is constantly undergoing revision. See page 106 for ways to obtain the latest detailed coverage information.

• The GPS antenna (located under the center of the dash) may be blocked by personal items. For best reception, remove items from the dash, such as radar detectors, cell phones, or loose articles.

• Metallic tinting or other after-market devices can interfere with the GPS reception. Please see your dealer. Also see System Limitations on page 97 .

Your route has entered an unverified area. See Unverified Area Routing on page 81 .

Sometimes I cannot select between the North-up, and

Heading-up map orientations, why is this?

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

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

Select the “North-up” map orientation by voice, or by touching the map orientation icon on the map

screen. See Map Orientation on page 54 .

The “Heading-up” map orientation can only be shown in the lower scales

(1/20 - 1 mile scales). See Map Scale on page 53 .

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 of your actual speed to give you a better estimate of arrival time.

No, when at an intersection, the system is unaware of the width of the intersecting road. Large differences is vehicle position can indicate a temporary loss of the GPS signal. See GPS Reception Issues on page 97 .

2008 CR- V

Main Menu


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

Problem

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

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

What is wrong?

Solution

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 page 59 and 88 .

Go to “Vehicle” in the

Setup

screen (second), and set

Off-road Tracking

to

Off

, then return to the map. See page 88 .

When you “draw” your area to avoid, make sure to select sections of roads that include at least one intersection. See page 85 .

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 55 for an example.

My elevation (shown when I touch the vehicle position icon) seems to fluctuate even though my elevation has not changed.

My elevation is missing on the “current position” screen.

Why?

This is normal, and due to errors in satellite position. The elevation can vary

+/- 100 feet. See System Limitations on page 97 .

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.

Ordering a Navi DVD, Coverage, Map Errors, Limitations

Problem

I want to buy a new DVD. How do I purchase one?

Solution

You cannot obtain a new DVD from the dealer. See Obtaining a Navigation

Update DVD on page 102 .

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 103 .

I got a Navi DVD from a “friend,” but it does not work. Why? Your vehicle was designed to use a turquoise (blue/green) DVD. DVDs with different colored labels, or from different manufacturers, will not operate correctly. Always obtain DVDs from the DVD order desk. See page 102 .

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

Will the navigation system work outside North America?

Can I play video DVDs in my navigation system?

The mapping database vendor is constantly revising map coverage. See page 106 for ways to obtain the latest detailed coverage information.

The navigation system contains maps only for the lower 48 states, and portions of southern Canada. The system will not work in Mexico, Hawaii,

Alaska, or overseas. Canada coverage is limited. See Map Coverage on page 106 .

No. The navigation system is designed only to read the turquoise (blue/ green) 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 101 .

Display, PC Card, Accessories

Problem

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

The screen does not close completely. Why is this?

Solution

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

Where can I get PC card adaptors or the media chips that go into them?

How do I put music files onto the PC Card

• Ensure that it is not during inserting/ejecting a CD. The screen cannot be closed if a CD is not completely inserted in the unit.

• Ensure that it is not during inserting/ejecting the DVD. The screen cannot be closed if the DVD is not completely inserted in the unit.

• Ensure that a PC card is inserted completely. The screen cannot be closed if a PC card is not completely inserted in the unit. Moreover, the recognition of a PC card takes about 1-2 seconds after it is inserted. The screen cannot be closed during this recognition.

• Ensure that the media clip is inserted into the PC card adaptor. Eject the

PC card adaptor when not in use.

• Any computer store sells PCMCIA PC card adaptors, and various types and capacities of media chips for them. Ask for Compact Flash or SD media and adaptors.

• Hard Disk Drive type media are not recommended because they can fail in a hot car.

You can use your home PC to move MP3 or WMA music files to your PC card. Most laptops have a slot to plug in your PC card. For desktop PCs,

USB adaptors are available that can accept your PC card or media chip. You move files to the card using Windows Explorer; like moving files to any other hard drive.

• After inserting the card, a delay of up to 30 seconds may be required to read the tag information (album, artist, and track names) - this is normal.

• Ensure that the music files on the media chip are either the WMA or MP3 music format. Other formats are not recognized.

• Some downloaded WMA and MP3 files are copy protected, and require that the copyright authentication files accompany the MP3/WMA files on the Card.

• Media types, and media capacity continues to grow. As a rule stick to

Compact Flash or SD media with capacities of 2GB or less. Other types of media, or larger capacities may work, but have not been tested.

• Single type media PC Card adaptors are recommended over multi-media type adaptors.

• Ensure that there are files on the card. For SD and other media with a write lock switch, ensure that the write protect is off when adding files to the card.

• The system only recognizes the FAT, and FAT-32 file format for the media.

• The quantity of tracks is limited to 999 tracks, and a file structure of up to

8 folder levels deep. Tracks beyond 999 are simply not recognized.

• Ensure that the music files on the media chip are either the WMA or MP3 music format. Other formats are not recognized.

To prevent damage to the display mechanism or your PC card/media chip, the system checks for a partially inserted PC card, and a partially inserted media chip. Always remove the PC card and media chip when not in use.

The media card will not fully insert into the PC card slot.

What is wrong?

Problem

I insert a CD-R with music files, but the CD button, or “CD” voice commands do not work. What is wrong?

Solution

• The PC card edge connector or the pins in the back of PC card slot may be damaged.

• Never force the card into the slot - the adaptor card should glide smoothly into the slot. See your dealer if the problem persists.

• After inserting a CD-R with WMA or MP3 files, a slight delay may occur before the CD button operates. The system needs to read the tag information (album, artist, and track names) to allow searches - this is normal.

• Ensure that the music files on the CD-R are the WMA or MP3 format.

Other formats are not recognized.

• Some WMA and MP3 files are copy protected, and require that the copyright authentication files accompany the MP3/WMA files on the CD.

Note:

Never use CD-R discs with stick on labels. The labels can curl and jam the CD mechanism requiring replacement of the navigation unit, and subsequent loss of all personal information.

Rear Camera

Problem

When I shift gears, the rear camera image is delayed.

The rear camera image is too dark or too bright, how do I adjust the brightness.

Solution

When shifting into or out of reverse, you may experience delays when the screen image switches between the navi screen and the rear camera image.

This is normal.

While the camera image is displayed, use the Zoom In/Zoom Out controls to adjust the brightness. This adjustment does not affect the Setup screen brightness adjustments.

Miscellaneous Other Questions

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

Problem

Daylight savings time occurred, but the navigation system did not change time even though Setup shows “Auto Daylight

Saving Time” is “On.”

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

Why is this?

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

Solution

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 92 .

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 91 .

1) Go to the

Clock adjustment

screen in Setup and ensure that

Auto

Daylight Saving Time

is

On

.

2) The navigation system is designed to switch to daylight savings 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 91 .

1) You may be driving near a time zone boundary (see Auto Time Zone by

GPS on page 92 ).

2) The navigation system does not, or incorrectly switches between standard and Daylight Savings Time. Set

Auto Daylight Saving Time

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 91 for more information.

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

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

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 92 .

You can turn off this feature. See page 91 .

Problem

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

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

Solution

There should have been 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.

This is being considered as a future enhancement.
