Acquiring Satellites
Before the unit can nd your current location and navigate a route, you must do the following:
1. Go outdoors to an open area, away from tall buildings and trees.
2. Flip up the GPS antenna on the back of the unit, so that it is parallel to the ground.
3. Turn on the Honda Portable Navigation System.
Acquiring satellite signals can take a few minutes. The bars indicate satellite strength.
NOTE: The rst time the Honda Portable Navigation System acquires satellites (or if
the unit has moved hundreds of miles since last acquiring satellites) it may take
several minutes. Afterward, acquisition times are quicker during normal use.
