1) Set your state in the Navi.
2) Use the "sort by distance" option if you are looking at categories with different names (i.e. "Fast food") rather than the name of a place/chain. If you use the name of a place, like "Macy's," the navi will sort by distance automatically.

Also, what year car and what year Navi DVD?
The more recent the DVD, the better the software works due to the updates on the discs.

The Navi DVD unit is in the trunk; the TL's Navi is DVD-based and updated yearly (although most of us don't get a new DVD each year).

The Navi manual is available on-line, linked through the last hypertext link from the owner's manual. To access the manuals, you can register your car at http://owners.acura.com/landing.aspx.
