VersionThis screen displays the current version information for the navigation system software. In addition, this screen allows the loading of updated software if requested by the factory, or instructed by a Service Bulletin. Software may be loaded from a CD or a PC card.
- Program Flash: Displays the version of the navi software in memory.
- Program Disc: If displayed, this value represents the version of the navi software on the navi DVD.
NOTE: The last two letters of the Program "Flash" or DVD fields indicate which DVD is installed in the unit. The letters "KA" imply that a "United States" DVD is installed. If the letters are KC, then a "Canada" DVD is installed. (See coverage discussion below.)
- IPL, APL, DBOOT, and System uCom, are all for factory use.
- Model: For this model, the field should begin with "SEP."
- Download: Do not touch, unless instructed by the factory.
There are two navigation DVDs produced for this model.
- The white DVD labeled "United States" is for the US market and contains maps for the contiguous 48 US states, and some southern portions of Canada. Clients wanting additional northern coverage in Canada, can purchase a "Canada," DVD by contacting the DVD fulfillment desk.
- The gray DVD labeled "Canada," is for the Canada market, and contains maps for all of Canada, plus some of the northern US states. If customers with this DVD require full US coverage (including states like Florida and Texas), they may purchase a "United States" DVD by contacting the DVD fulfillment desk.

Telematics Self-Diagnosis
This screen shows the software version information for the AcuraLink control unit (XM receiver). Toggle the joystick left to exit the screen.
DTC Log Data
This screen displays DTCs stored in the AcuraLink control unit. Use the HDS to clear the codes. Additional details about listed DTCs can be viewed by selecting each listed item.
Diagnostic Info
This screen lists messages that were displayed to the client. The client can clear the messages that are shown with an "envelope" symbol.
Data Reset
This menu choice resets the AcuraLink control unit (XM receiver), and should not be selected. Only select "DATA RESET" if instructed to do so by the factory. If chosen accidentally, a confirmation screen appears to prevent accidental erasure. Select "No" to exit the screen.
NOTE: Selecting "DATA RESET" will clear the AcuraLink registration, and the AcuraLink service will reset to the factory default. If the vehicle was already registered for the AcuraLink service, it will have to be reactivated by calling Acura Client Services before all features will be available. The reactivation will cause the Feature Guide to start over at the first message, which will result in the client getting repeated messages.
Traffic Channel
If the menu choice is available, never adjust the settings. Changing the settings will cause traffic flow and traffic icon information to stop displaying on the map screen. The only appropriate setting is shown. If the setting is changed accidentally, choose a SID value of 255, and an App ID of 8.
