How do you update the infotainment system software on a 2019 Honda CR-V?

 
Step 1: Prepare a USB Drive
 

• Make sure you have a USB drive with at least 4GB of free space.
• The drive needs to be formatted to FAT32 or exFAT.

Step 2: Download the Update
 

• Visit the official Honda Owner’s website.
• Search for the infotainment system update software for your 2019 Honda CR-V.
• Download the update file to your computer.
• Once downloaded, extract the contents of the file if it is in a zipped format.

Step 3: Transfer the Update to USB Drive
 

• Copy the extracted update files to the root directory of your USB drive. The root directory means they should not be inside any folder on the USB drive.
• Safely eject the USB drive from your computer once the transfer is complete.

Step 4: Prepare Your Vehicle
 

• Start your 2019 Honda CR-V and ensure it is in Park mode.
• Turn on the infotainment system.

Step 5: Insert the USB Drive
 

• Insert the USB drive containing the update files into the USB port of your Honda CR-V.

Step 6: Begin the Update Process
 

• Follow the on-screen prompts on the infotainment system. It should recognize the update files and prompt you to begin the update process.
• Accept any terms and conditions, and confirm that you want to proceed with the update.

Step 7: Wait for the Update to Complete
 

• The update process may take several minutes. Do not turn off the vehicle or remove the USB drive during this time.
• The infotainment system will likely restart itself once the update is complete.

Step 8: Verify the Update
 

• After the system restarts, navigate to the system settings menu to verify that the software version matches the version of the update you downloaded.

Step 9: Remove the USB Drive
 

• Once the update is complete and verified, remove the USB drive from the USB port.
