Correct Vehicle Position - Acura 2009 TL Navigation System Owner's Manual

Main Menu
After you have traveled approximately
1/2 mile away from a mapped road, the
system will display a series of white
dots on the map screen to show the
path you have traveled. This is provided
so you can follow the dots to backtrack
to the mapped road you originally left.
Tracking continues until you reach a
mapped road. See Off-road Tracking on
page 70 .
Tracking is shown only in the 1/20, 1/8,
1/4, and 1/2 mile scales, or the 80, 200,
400, and 800 meter scales. Rotate the
Interface Dial knob to change the
scale if necessary.
NOTE:
To clear existing dots, turn this feature
OFF and exit SET UP. To re-enable
this feature, return to SET UP and turn
it on again.

Correct Vehicle Position

The system relies on satellites for
positioning information. Buildings,
tunnels, and other objects can block
or refl ect 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
