Gps Initialization; Map Matching - Honda 2006 Civic Sedan Owner's Manual

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 16).
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:
Navigation system is unable to acquire a
proper GPS signal.
- Move vehicle to another location
- Turn the ignition switch off
- Disconnect the battery for 30
minutes to clear the GPS receiver's
memory
- Reconnect the battery and follow
the screen prompts
After 30 minutes with this screen
displayed, turn off the engine and
restart the car. If you now see the
Disclaimer screen, the GPS
initialization is complete. The green
GPS icon should appear in the upper
left corner of the screen.
System Initialization
NOTE:
• The average acquiring time is less
than 10 minutes, but it can take as
long as 45 minutes.
• If the system is still unable to acquire
a signal, follow the instructions on
the screen, or contact your local
dealer for assistance.

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.
