Operation In Alaska, Hawaii, Canada, And Puerto Rico; Alaska, Hawaii, Canada, And Puerto Rico - Acura 2011 MDX Navigation System Owner's Manual

Operation in Alaska, Hawaii,
Canada, and Puerto Rico
Certain functions that rely on a satellite
signal will not work correctly. These
functions include but are not limited to
AcuraLink, and traffic- and weather-
related services.
XM Radio
Navigation-equipped vehicles delivered
to Alaska, Hawaii, Canada, and Puerto
Rico are equipped with XM hardware,
but XM broadcasting is not available;
therefore sections of the manual that
mention XM audio, traffic displays,
weather information, and AcuraLink
features do not apply.
Vehicles originally delivered to the U.S.
mainland and shipped to Hawaii also
have XM, but will not function because
the XM satellites (aimed toward the
U.S. mainland) are too far away to
obtain reception.
Alaska, Hawaii, Canada, and
Puerto Rico
This section describes the differences in
navigation system operation for vehicles
delivered in Alaska, Hawaii, Canada,
and Puerto Rico.
Map Coverage
All roads displayed on the map screens
are detailed coverage roads. Text related
to "unverified" roads or areas are not
applicable. The following topics do not
apply:
• Unverified road descriptions (see
page 6, 106)
• Cautions and pop-up windows related
to unverified roads (see page 72)
• Setup entries that relate to turning on
or off unverified routing (see
page 107)
• See the coverage section for a list of
islands with coverage (see page 134)

Coverage Areas
Address and POI Entry Screens
The following differences occur for
map, address, and POI selection:
• Entry of a destination address or POI
on an island other than your current
island may result in a screen caution
message. This is normal because
there are no "ferry" routes between
islands available in the database.
Setup Screen Differences
The SETUP screen differences are
minor and are listed below. See the
Setup section (page 94) for additional
information.
AcuraLink/Messages
This item is grayed out on the SETUP
screen (Other) because XM is not
available.
Traffic & Weather Status
This item is grayed out on the SETUP
screen (Other) because XM is not
