System Overview
Your navigation system is a highly sophisticated location system with voice control that uses satellites and a map database to show you where you are and to help guide you to a desired destination.
The navigation system receives signals from the global positioning system
(GPS), a network of 24 satellites in orbit around the earth. By receiving signals from several of these satellites, the navigation system can determine the latitude, longitude, and elevation of your vehicle. In addition, a gyroscopic yaw sensor and a vehicle speed sensor in your vehicle keep track of the direction and speed of travel at all times.
The navigation system applies this location, direction, and speed information to the maps and calculates a route to the destination you enter. As you drive to that destination, the system provides map and voice guidance.
The navigation system is easy to use.
The locations of many places of business and entertainment are already entered in the system. You can select any of them as a destination by using the touch screen, joystick or voice control.
There are several ways to enter a destination, such as by point of interest
(POI), by address, by phone number, and by selecting it from the map. The last 50 destinations are saved for reuse at a later date. The system also allows you to store a home address to simplify returning home from your destination.
4 Navigation System
Accessories Precautions
If you have front window tinting installed, be aware that if the tint has metallic properties, it can seriously degrade or prevent GPS reception. This is because the GPS antenna is located under the dashboard.
If you plan to install electronic components such as radar detectors, vehicle location devices, remote starters, additional amplifiers, or other audio components, ensure that they are not located near the navigation control unit under the driver’s seat, near the navigation screen in the dash, or near the GPS antenna under the dashboard.
Signal noise emanating from these devices can cause intermittent disruption of the navigation system.
Introduction
Important Safety Information
The navigation system can distract your attention from the road if you focus on the screen or operate the system’s controls while driving.
Enter as much information as possible into the system before you begin driving, or when the vehicle is stopped.
Then, as you drive, listen to the audio instructions and use voice commands when possible.
WARNING
Using the navigation system while driving can take your attention away from the road, causing a crash in which you could be seriously injured or killed.
Follow all operating instructions and safety information in this manual.
While driving, do not look at the screen or operate the system controls for more than a second or so at a time, and only after deciding you can do so safely. Pull to the side of the road if you need more time to look at the screen or operate the controls.
Navigation System 5
Introduction
The navigation system is designed to provide route information to help you reach your destination. However, this route guidance may sometimes conflict with current road conditions such as street closures, road construction, detours, and out-of-date map data.
Additionally, the system itself has certain limitations (see page 97).
Therefore, you must verify the audio and visual route information provided by the system by carefully observing the roadway, signs and signals, etc. If you are unsure, proceed with caution.
Always use your own good judgment, and obey traffic laws while driving.
Map Overview
Current Street
The current street on which your vehicle is, appears at the bottom of the map screen (see page 18). A message saying
“Not on a digitized road” may appear instead when you drive half a mile away from a mapped road. For more details, see Off-road Tracking on page 59.
Verified/Unverified Street
Your navigation system has two kinds of streets: verified (dark colored) and unverified (light colored). The differences between the two types of streets are contrasted in the chart on page 7.

Time and distance
“to go”
Verified streets (dark colored)
These roads are found within metropolitan areas, and include interstate freeways and major roads connecting cities.
Shown on daytime map screen as black or red, such as interstate freeways.
The database vendor has verified these streets.
Information like turn restrictions, average speed, and whether it is a one way street have been gathered and used when creating your route to a destination.
While driving to your destination, the displayed route line is solid blue. The system provides voice and map guidance to your destination.
There are no pop-up boxes urging extra caution during a route. However, because roads constantly change, you are urged to use common sense, and always obey posted traffic restrictions.
Voice guidance issues maneuvers such as “In a half mile make a right turn.”
The time and distance “to go,” displayed while on route to a destination, is based on the average speed and distance for the roads used for your route.
Unverified streets (light colored)
These roads are found in rural areas, and typically include residential streets away from the center of a town.
Shown on the daytime map screen as light brown.
These streets have not been verified by the database vendor. The system does not contain information on one-way streets, turn restrictions, or the road’s average speed. They are shown on the map for reference and can have errors in map location, naming, and address range.
Your route line is either a blue dotted “vector line,” or a dashed pink/blue line. For information on selecting this option, and the routing differences, see Unverified Area Routing on page 82.
Regardless of whether the user chooses route guidance, there are cautionary screens before and during the route urging the user to be extra cautious, and obey all traffic restrictions. See Unverified
Area Routing on page 82.
The suffix “if possible” is added to each guidance maneuver. For example: “In a half mile make a right turn, if possible.”
Because the average speed of these roads is not known, the time and distance “to go” is based on a fixed average speed of 25 mph for these roads.

Navigation System 11
Getting Started
Voice Control Basics
Your vehicle has a voice control system that allows hands-free operation of most of the navigation system functions. You can also control the audio system and the climate control system. The voice control system uses the NAVI TALK and NAVI BACK buttons on the steering wheel and a microphone near the map light on the ceiling.
NAVI TALK button
NAVI BACK button
Microphone
(on the ceiling)
NAVI TALK button
This button activates the voice control system. Press and release it when you want to give a voice command. See
Voice Command Index on page 123 for a list of voice commands.
NAVI BACK button
This button has the same function as the
CANCEL button. When you press and release it, the display returns to the previous screen. When the previous screen appears, the system replays the last prompt. This button is enabled for the navigation system commands only.
However, it can be used to cancel an audio or climate control voice command up to one second after the command confirmation.
NOTE:
While using the voice control system, all of the speakers (except the RES headphones) are muted.
12 Navigation System
Using the Voice Control System
You should use the voice control system as much as possible, and consider manual entry using the joystick as a
“back-up” method of entry.
Most of the system’s functions can be controlled by voice commands activated with the NAVI TALK button. To control your navigation system by voice:
• Press and release the NAVI TALK button.
• Wait for the beep.
• Give a voice command.
Once the microphone picks up your command, the system changes the display in response to the command and prompts you for the next command.
Using the NAVI TALK button, answer the prompts as required.
If the system does not understand a command or you wait too long to give a command, it responds with “Pardon,”
“Please repeat,” or “Would you say again.” If the system cannot perform a command or the command is not appropriate for the screen you are on, it sounds a beep.
Anytime you are not sure of what voice commands are available on a screen, you can always say “Help” at any screen. The system can then read the list of commands to you.
When you speak a command, the system generally either repeats the command as a confirmation or asks you for further information. If you do not wish to hear this feedback, you can turn it off. See the Voice Recognition Feedback setting in Setup.
If you hear a prompt such as “Please use the touch screen to...” or “Please choose an area with the joystick,” the system is asking for input that cannot be performed using the voice control system.
Getting Started
Improving Voice Recognition
To achieve optimum voice recognition, the following guidelines should be followed:
•
•
NOTE:
Make sure the correct screen is displayed for the voice command that
you are using. See Voice Command
Index on page 123.
• Adjust the airflow
from both the dashboard and side vents so they do not blow against the microphone on the ceiling. Place your hand over the microphone; if you feel any airflow, adjust the vents.
Close the windows and the sunroof.
The fan speed will be automatically lowered during voice recognition operation.
• After pressing the NAVI TALK button, wait for the beep, then give a voice command.
• Give a voice command in a clear, natural speaking voice without pausing between words.
Navigation System 13
Getting Started
• If the system cannot recognize your command because of background noise, speak louder.
• If more than one person is speaking at the same time, the system may misinterpret your command.
• If you are still having trouble with the voice control system, refer to Voice
Command Help on the
Information screen.
Selecting an Item (Button) on the Screen
On most screens, there are items that can be selected (like buttons with titles such as OK or Return). To select an item on any screen, do one of the following:
• Use the voice control system and say the name of the desired item. Almost all selectable items on the screen, including some listed items, are recognized by the voice control system.
• Touch the desired item on the screen.
• Move the highlighting to the desired item with the joystick, then push in on the joystick.
Tip:
If items are grayed out (very dark colored), this means that they cannot be selected.
Selecting an Item in a List
To scroll through a list, do one of the following:
• Use the joystick to scroll through the list item by item.
• Use the voice control system and say
“Next” or “Previous” or use the “on screen” scroll up or down buttons, or the ZOOM buttons to scroll through the list page by page.
If you cannot find the desired name, or have made an error, return to the previous screen by pressing the
CANCEL or the NAVI BACK button.
To select the desired item in the list, do one of the following:
• Use the voice control system, and say the item number of the desired item.
• Touch the item on the screen.
• Use the joystick to move the highlighting to the item, then push in on the joystick.
14 Navigation System
Using the On-screen
Keyboard
When the system needs input from you, the display changes to a keyboard. Use the displayed letters to enter the information. Enter each letter by one of the following methods:
• Using the voice control system, say the desired letter on the screen.
• Move the highlighting to the desired letter using the joystick, then push in on the joystick.
• Touch the desired letter on the screen.
When speaking the letters or using
“spell mode,” you can substitute the name that represents each letter or symbol. This improves recognition. The system will only respond to the names shown in the following graphic. For example:
• To select the letter “A”: Say, “A”;
“Alpha”; or “Apple.”
• To select the letter “M”: Say, “M”;
“Mike”; or “Mary.”

Guidance Prompts
As you get near the maneuver, you will hear a voice reminder, and see a pop-up window showing you the maneuver.
The number of reminders that you will hear before a maneuver is determined by Guidance Prompts in Setup on page 74.
With the factory default (Normal), typically you will hear two prompts:
• The first is about 1/4 mile from the maneuver.
• The final prompt is close to your actual turn.
If the distance between the next two driving maneuvers is very small, both maneuvers are displayed on the screen in a single window, and the voice will remind you of both of them at the same time.
NOTE:
• You can say “Voice” or select Voice on the screen at any time to be reminded of the next maneuver.
• Typically a pop-up guidance window shows your next turn, and a voice guidance prompt is heard. The timing of these prompts varies, depending on the type of road you are on, and the distance to your next maneuver.
When given guidance in unverified areas, the words, “If Possible,” are inserted before each guidance prompt.

Distance and Time to
Destination
When you select a destination, the distance to the destination is the actual road distance of the calculated route, and “not as the crow flies.” When viewing a list of destinations (points of interest), such as restaurants, the distance is “as the crow flies” (see Sort
by Distance to Travel on page 34).
The displayed time to destination may differ from the actual travel time because the time is calculated based on the posted road speed data and your current speed. If part of your route includes unverified roads, the “distance” and “time to go” for that portion is estimated using 25 mph as an average speed.

NOTE:
To turn on “Freeway exit information” on the map screen, display the icon bar and select the “i” icon (see page 57).
Split Screen Guidance
When on route to a destination, you have two display options: single screen mode (the factory default) and the split screen mode.
Single screen mode – a map is displayed with occasional guidance pop-up windows as you approach a maneuver.
Split screen mode – the map is always displayed on the left of the screen, and the maneuver or direction list is displayed on the right hand side of the screen.
Guidance mode can be changed in either
Setup (see Guidance Mode on page 88) or by accessing the icon bar

When you get near the maneuver, the map screen changes to:
On the map screen, the location of the maneuver is marked with a small yellow square. The guidance window is simply an enlargement of the area indicated by the yellow square. After you complete the maneuver, the display returns to a full map screen when the single screen mode is set, or to a map and direction list screen when the split screen mode is set.

Map Orientation
The map can be orientated two ways:
• North-up: North pointing up as you would normally view a paper map.
• Heading-up: The map constantly rotates so the road you are driving on always points up (as you see the road through your front windshield).
“North Up”
“Heading Up”
Touch the Map Orientation icon on the map screen to switch between the available orientation, or say “Display heading up” or “Display north up.”
In the larger map scales (above
2 mile or 3 kilometer), the map is always oriented with north facing upward. You cannot change the orientation.
To view other areas on the map, move the joystick left, right, up, or down. The map will shift in that direction. To return the map to your current location, press either the MAP/GUIDE, the
CANCEL, or the NAVI BACK button on the steering wheel.

54 Navigation System
Destination Icon
The destination icon only shows the approximate location of the destination.
This occurs because a city block can have as many as 100 possible addresses
(for example, the 1400 block is followed by the 1500 block.) Since most cities use only a portion of the 100 possible addresses (for example, in the 1400 block, the addresses may only go up to
1425 before the 1500 block starts).
Therefore, the address 1425 will be shown a quarter of the way down the block by the system instead of near the end of the block where the destination is actually located.
Tip:
When on a route, you can view a map showing your destination. Using voice control, say “Display destination map.”
Landmark Icons
Landmark icons are shown in the map screen on 1/20 and 1/8 mile scale, or 80 and 200 meter scale. The Freeway exit information is displayed on the 1/4, 1/2, and 1 mile scales. The icons are:

Going Off the Route
If you leave the calculated route,
“Recalculating...” is displayed at the top of the screen. The system will recalculate the route from your current location and direction to the desired destination then give you a new route instruction. This is done automatically if you have set Rerouting to Automatic on the Setup screen (second) (see page 81).
If the Rerouting option in Setup is set to Manual, “Off route” appears at the top of the screen when you leave the calculated route. Say “Recalculate,” or touch Recalc. button whenever you wish the system to perform a recalculation.
Off-road Tracking
If you drive more than half a mile from a mapped road, “Not on a digitized road.” appears at the bottom of the screen.
The map screen starts displaying a series of dots (breadcrumbs) to show the path you have taken if Off-road
Tracking on the Setup screen (second) is set to On (see page 89).
Driving to Your Destination
By following the dots, you can backtrack to the mapped road you originally left.
“Breadcrumbs” may occasionally be displayed in urban areas, such as large parking lots in shopping malls, or in new subdivisions where the roads are not yet in the database. In other cases you may see dots, if the system temporary goes off route, like in a parking garage where the GPS signal is unavailable.
These dots appear only in the 1/20, 1/8,
1/4, and 1/2 mile (or 80, 200, 400, and
800 meter) map scales.
Use the ZOOM buttons to change scales if necessary.
Tracking continues for approximately
150 miles; dots at the beginning of the trail will start disappearing when you exceed that distance. When you reach a mapped road, the system stops displaying dots.

Viewing/Saving the Current
Location
Whenever you are on a map screen, you can always obtain your current location either by touching the Vehicle Position icon or by using the voice control system and saying “Display current location.” A screen pops up which shows the address of your current location, as well as the latitude, longitude, and elevation.
NOTE:
The elevation will not appear when the system is temporarily lacking proper
GPS information. The system elevation may not agree with elevations shown on roadside elevation signs, and may fluctuate plus or minus 100 feet or more.
You can store the current location for later use. It does not change or cancel your current route.
For example, you are following the system’s directions to get to a destination. While sitting at a stoplight you notice a curio shop on the corner, but do not have time to visit it right now.
You can save the location to select as a destination at a later date.
To save the location, say “Save current location.” or select Save on the screen.
When you select “User 1” or “User 2,” the Edit address book screen with the current location data will appear. You can edit the name, phone number, or category name to be saved in your personal Address Book.
After the location is saved, select
Return to return to the map screen.
You can then use Address Book from the Enter destination by screen to select the saved location, and return to the same spot.

Driving to Your Destination
Changing the Route
While on route, you may wish to alter your route, add an interim “Waypoint”
(pit stop), choose a different destination, or cancel your current destination.
To change your present route, you can do any of the following:
Say “Menu,” or press the MENU button to view the Change route by screen:
• Add a Waypoint or pit stop (page 63).
• Avoid a certain street or streets
(page 64).
• Detour (page 64).
• Change routing method (page 64).
• Cancel the current route (page 65).
• Back to the current route (page 65).
Choose a different destination (other methods):
• Saying, “Find nearest...” to find a POI
(page 65).
• Saying, “Go home” (page 65).
• Using the joystick to select a different
POI or address on the map (page 65).
• Pressing the MENU button twice to get to the Enter destination by screen (page 66).
Change Route By Screen
Pressing the MENU button displays the
Change route by screen:
Waypoints
Waypoints allow you to add an interim
“pit stop” while traveling to a destination. For instance, you may want to stop for gas or food, and then continue on to your destination.
Although you can enter up to 5 waypoints at a time, typically you may never use more than one at a time.
Waypoints are routed to in the order they were entered (number 1 first, etc.), with your final destination routed to last.
If you wish to create a custom route of several destinations, and then control the order of routing, the function
“Today’s Destinations” is probably a better choice (see By Today’s
Destinations on page 40).
62 Navigation System
When you enter waypoints, they appear on the map screen as small red flags numbered 1-5.
Adding Waypoints
From the Change route by screen, if you say or select Search Places on
Route, then the Select a search method screen is displayed. Select either Places Along the Route or
Places Around the Destination.

Next, select your “Waypoint Category,” then follow the menu prompts to select a destination. When the system performs a search from Places Along the
Route, it displays matches that lie within a corridor on either side and in front of you, along your route. From
Places Around the Destination, the system displays matches in a spiral pattern outward from the destination.
The search “corridor” distance value can be changed in Edit Waypoint
Search Area in Setup (see page 87).
To add another waypoint, press the
MENU button and repeat the procedure.
If Search Places on Route is grayed out, the maximum of 5 waypoints has been entered.

Unverified Area Routing
When driving to your destination, you have the choice of using or not using
“unverified” roads. You make this choice in Setup screen (second). The next few pages contain an example of a route to a destination in an unverified area explaining the routing differences found in unverified areas.
With Unverified Area Routing Off, the system tries to use verified roads whenever possible. In this example, since only verified streets are used, it created a longer route than necessary.
With Unverified Area Routing On, the route is shorter, but consists of unverified (light colored) streets that may not be accurate. Because the streets are unverified, there may be errors in street location, name, or address range.
Additional caution is recommended in these areas. Always obey posted traffic restrictions.
Because both routes bypass or use unverified streets, an initial Disclaimer screen is provided. It is recommended that you stop and review the map.
Unverified Area Routing “Off”

“vector line” that points to your destination.
With Unverified Area Routing On, a caution box appears on the screen and is read by the voice. In this case you will be presented with a dashed blue/pink line instead of the regular blue route line. You cannot assume that all guidance is appropriate. This is your signal to pay attention to posted traffic restrictions.
In both cases, when you actually enter the unverified street, a short caution will remind you. You will see and hear this short caution message whenever you enter unverified areas.

Use the ZOOM buttons to select the map scale (available scales are 1/20, 1/
8, and 1/4 mile scales).
Use the joystick to move the crosshairs
(red circle) to the desired start point and push in the joystick to “set” the start point. Then move the joystick in a straight or diagonal direction to encompass the area to be avoided.
86 Navigation System
NOTE:
The maximum size of the “Avoid area” is 1/4 of the navigation display screen regardless of the map scale setting.
The selected area will be displayed as a shaded box with an orange border. Push in on the joystick to set the end point of the avoided area. To “re-draw” the area, touch Cancel and repeat the area selection process. If your selected area contains a freeway, the system will prompt you with a pop-up box saying,
“Do you want to avoid freeways?”
Answering “No” allows you to enter a route through an avoided area on a freeway, and skip the “Avoid area caution box” (See Pop-ups and
Disclaimers on page 61).
Say or select Done to return to the Edit area screen. When you return, the
“Vicinity” field is automatically filled in by the system. Re-edit the area “Name” if desired. Select Done on the Edit avoid area screen to finish editing.
Your new avoided area will now appear on the “Avoid area” list screen, and be viewable on the map screen.
NOTE:
• You can select areas to avoid, however you cannot select roads or areas that you want the system to use for routing.
• If you are drawing a box around a road as an area to avoid, ensure the following: When you draw the box, make sure that the road or portion of a road that you encircled includes an intersection. For instance, in the example above, highway 213 will be avoided, but Van Ness will not be avoided because it lacks an intersection in the enclosed box.
System Set-up
Edit Waypoint Search Area
When driving on route to your destination, you can select a temporary destination “waypoint” (marked with a small flag on the map) along your route for gas, a restaurant, or other POI. When you resume your trip from the
“waypoint,” the system continues the trip to your original destination. To use this feature, see Waypoints on page 62.
This Setup item allows you to select the distance from your highlighted route line (on either side of your route), that the system will search for a “waypoint.”
From the Routing & Guidance screen, select Edit for “Edit Waypoint Search
Area,” and then choose the desired search distance for either “On
Freeways” or “On Surface Street.”
Navigation System 87
System Set-up
The diagram below shows how the system handles the search for places
“Along the route” or “Around the destination” (see Waypoints on page 62).
For “Places along the route,” the system looks in front of you within a corridor width specified by your values for “On
Freeways” or “On Surface Street.”
The system checks the upcoming area, based on your input.
For “Places around the destination,” the system searches outwards in a spiral from the destination. In this case, specific search values are not needed; the matches are displayed in order of distance from destination.
NOTE:
These settings do not affect the search range used for the voice commands like,
“Find nearest gas station,” that are also available when viewing the map screen.
Guidance Mode
Allows you to select the guidance display mode:
To get to Guidance Mode from the
Setup screen, select in sequence,
"More", "Routing & Guidance", and
"Guidance Mode".
Single Screen or Split Screen. The factory default is Single Screen.
NOTE:
The Guidance Mode can also be selected on the Icon Selection screen.
See Showing Icons on the Map on page 57.
88 Navigation System
Vehicle
From the Setup screen (second), say or select Vehicle and the following screen appears:
Off-road Tracking
With this On, the system will provide white off-road tracking dots
(“breadcrumbs”) on the map screen whenever you drive into an area where the map does not show any roads.
See Map Screen Legend on page 18.
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 59.
Tracking is shown only in the 1/20, 1/8,
1/4, and 1/2 mile, or the 80, 200, 400, and 800 meter scales. Use the ZOOM buttons to change the scales if necessary.
NOTE:
To clear existing dots, turn this feature off and exit Setup. To re-enable this feature, return to Setup and turn it on again.
System Set-up
Correct Vehicle Position
The system relies on satellites for positioning information. Buildings, tunnels, and other objects can block or reflect 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.
Navigation System 89
System Set-up
If you choose to do this, follow these steps:
1. Stop the vehicle.
2. Select Adjust, and the system will display a map adjustment screen.
NOTE:
If you continually have to do this, there are either problems in the database or
GPS reception problems. See
Accessories Precautions on page 5.
4. When you have finished, press the joystick or select Done to return to the previous screen.
5. As you drive, the current road will be displayed at the bottom of the screen.

Navigation System 91
System Set-up
Auto Daylight Saving Time
Sets automatic daylight saving time On or Off. If set to On the navi clock will automatically "spring ahead" or "fall behind" by one hour when a daylight savings time change occurs. If you reside in a state or area where daylight saving time is not used, then you may want to turn this feature off.
NOTE:
If you set Auto Daylight Saving Time to
On, the
Daylight Saving Time function is activated even in an area that does not adopt the Daylight Saving Time system.
The federal government has mandated that, starting in 2007, daylight savings time will change in March & November instead of the old schedule in April &
October. The new government daylight savings time schedule is subject to review and possible cancellation in
2008.
The dates that the navi switches between standard and daylight savings time are stored in the navi software, and is not triggered by GPS satellite signals.
Therefore, your navi clock will change based on the daylight savings time schedule.
If you need to adjust the clock for daylight savings time, go to the Clock adjustment screen in the Setup, and simply adjust the navi time by or
one hour.
Auto Time Zone by GPS
Sets automatic time zone selection by
GPS to On or Off. If you are driving across the country and passing through time zones, then this feature will automatically set the time to the time zone you are traveling through.
However, if you live and work in two different time zones, you may want to turn this feature off.
NOTE:
When driving near a time zone boundary, the displayed time zone may fluctuate between the two zone times.
92 Navigation System
DST selection (Change DST
schedule)
This option lets you select the schedule
(April–October, or March–November) when daylight saving time will automatically occur in your navi. The system default is the new 2007 "March–
November" schedule as mandated by the US government. During 2008–2009, it is possible that this new change will be canceled by the government, and returned back to the previous "April–
October" schedule. If so, simply change the schedule in this setting.
Time Adjustment
Adjusts the current time in hours and minutes. You can reset the adjustment by selecting Reset. Selecting Done returns you to the previous screen.
NOTE:
Selecting Reset also clears any changes you made to “Auto Daylight
Saving” or “Auto Time Zone” settings.
Depending on your location, you may need to adjust these settings.

Say or select Return to return to the previous screen.
NOTE:
• Choose Black (factory default) as the Base color to obtain the best display contrast.
• Choose White (factory default) as the Window color to obtain the best display contrast.
Rear View Camera
Your vehicle is equipped with a rear view camera as shown in the illustration.
Rear View Camera
Whenever you shift to R (Reverse) with the ignition switch in the ON (II) position, the rear view is shown on the navigation system screen. For the best image, always keep the rear view camera lens clean, and be sure it is not covered.
Since the rear view camera display area is limited, you should always back up slowly and carefully, and look behind you for obstacles.
Rear View Camera Brightness
Adjustment
When in reverse, the touch screen, and
Navi “hard” buttons are locked out, except the ZOOM buttons. Touching the “ ” or “ ” button allows you to adjust the brightness of the rear view camera image. This brightness adjustment is independent of the screen brightness adjustment in Setup.
NOTE:
• The camera brightness cannot be adjusted by voice control.
• Slight delays can occur when switching to the camera image, or switching back to the map/menu screen. This is normal.
94 Navigation System
System Initialization
If for any reason, you lose power to the navigation system (like the battery was disconnected), the navigation system will require initialization. Once completed, your system will be ready to use.
This initialization requires the following:
• Entry of the 4-digit anti-theft security code to “unlock” the navigation system.
• GPS initialization (may not be needed depending on the length of time the system was without power).
• Map matching to align the GPS coordinates to a place on the map
(displays current street at the bottom of the map).
Entering the Security Code
If the battery goes dead or is disconnected for any reason, you will have to enter a security code for both the audio system and the navigation system before you can use it again.
When you purchased the vehicle, you should have received two cards that have the audio and navigation system’s security codes and serial numbers. Keep these cards in a safe place in case you need the codes. If you lose the cards, you must obtain the security codes from your dealer.
System Initialization
Enter the four-digit security code, then select Done. If you have entered it correctly, the display changes to the
Disclaimer screen. If you make a mistake, the system will display
“incorrect PIN.” Re-enter your 4-digit security code. You have ten chances to enter the correct code. If all ten are incorrect, turn the ignition to OFF, then back to ON (II) to have ten more chances to enter the correct code.
Follow the instructions in the vehicle
Owner’s manual to enter the 5-digit audio code. The navigation voice will not operate if the audio code is not entered.
NOTE:
The anti-theft security code is unrelated to your optional Navigation system PIN
(for Personal or Home Address).
Navigation System 95
System Initialization
GPS Initialization
Depending on the length of time the battery was disconnected, your system may require GPS initialization. If it does, the following screen appears:
If the navigation system finds the satellites properly, this box clears, and changes to the Disclaimer screen. If within ten minutes the system fails to locate a sufficient number of satellites to locate your position, the following screen appears:
Navigation system is unable to acquire a proper GPS signal.
- Move vehicle to another location.
- Turn the ignition switch off.
- Disconnect the battery for 30 minutes
to clear the GPS receiver’s memory.
- Reconnect the battery and follow
the screen prompts.
If this procedure is not necessary, the system proceeds directly to the
Disclaimer screen (see page 16).
During initialization, the system searches for all available GPS satellites, and obtains their orbital information.
During this procedure the vehicle should be out in the open with a clear view of the sky.
After 30 minutes with this screen displayed, turn off the engine and restart the car. If you now see the Disclaimer screen, the GPS initialization is complete. The green GPS icon should appear in the upper left corner of the screen.
NOTE:
• The average acquiring time is less than 10 minutes, but it can take as long as 45 minutes.
• If the system is still unable to acquire a signal, follow the instructions on the screen, or contact your local dealer for assistance.
Map Matching
This part of the initialization matches the GPS coordinates found above with a road on the map screen. To perform this part of the procedure, ensure that the navigation system is displaying a map, and drive the vehicle on a mapped road
(a road shown on the map screen). Do not enter a destination at this time.
When the name of the current road you are driving on appears at the bottom of the screen, the entire procedure is complete. Your system is now ready to use.
96 Navigation System
Although your navigation system is one of the most highly sophisticated pieces of equipment you will find in a modern automobile, you may find during its use, that it has certain limitations.
The system uses signals from the Global
Positioning System (GPS) to aid in determining its current location. The
GPS is operated by the U.S.
Department of Defense. For security reasons, there are certain inaccuracies built into the GPS that the navigation system must constantly compensate for.
This can cause occasional positioning errors of up to several hundred feet.
For example, in urban areas where streets are close together, this could cause the system to show that you are traveling on a street that parallels the street you are actually on. The system will, under most circumstances, correct itself while you drive.
Also, depending on your current view of the sky and the position of the satellites, the elevation may be shown incorrectly.
You may also notice some delay of the vehicle position icon at intersections; this is normal.
GPS Reception Issues
The signals received from the GPS satellites are extremely weak (less than a millionth of the strength of a local FM station), and require an unobstructed view of sky. The signal can easily be interrupted or interfered with by the following:
• After-market metallic window tint above or to the sides of the GPS antenna (located under the dash)
• Cell phones, PDAs, or other electronic devices docked in a cradle or laying loose on the dash
• Radar detectors mounted on the dash
• Remote starters, or “hidden” vehicle location systems mounted near the navigation unit
• Other after-market audio electronic devices mounted near the navigation unit
System Limitations
• Trees, tall buildings, freeway overpasses, tunnels or overhead electrical power wires
Although the system will direct you to your desired destination, it may not always generate what you consider to be the most direct route. Try changing the method of routing. See Changing the
Routing Method on page 45. You may also have Unverified Area Routing set to “OFF.” See Unverified Area Routing on page 82.
Additionally, the mapping database contains verified and unverified maps.
See Map Overview on page 6. A
Disclaimer screen will warn you if your route includes unverified streets.
Unverified streets may be missing from the map, in the wrong location, or have an incorrect name or address range.
Exercise additional caution when driving in these unverified areas.
Navigation System 97
System Limitations
The destination icon shows the approximate location of the destination.
This occurs because a city block can have as many as 100 possible addresses
(for example, the 1400 block is followed by the 1500 block.) Since most cities use only a portion of the 100 possible addresses (for example, in the 1400 block, the addresses may only go up to
1425 before the 1500 block starts), the address 1425 will be shown a quarter of the way down the block by the system instead of at the end of the block where the destination is actually located.
You may find that the system occasionally “reboots.” This is indicated by the display returning to the globe screen. A reboot can be caused by a number of things, such as extreme temperatures or shock from bumpy roads. It does not necessarily indicate a problem that requires service. If this happens frequently, please see your dealer.
98 Navigation System
You will find that some points of interest (POI) may be missing when you search the database. This can be caused if at the time the database was gathered, the name was misspelled, the place was improperly categorized, or the POI change is not yet in the database. This means you may not find places listed that you know exist. This is also true for police agencies and hospitals. In outlying areas, facilities listed may not be the closest. Always check with local information sources if you need law enforcement or hospital services.
Every effort has been made to verify that the system’s database was accurate at the time it was created. However, businesses do fail or move to new locations, and new businesses start in the old locations. For this reason, you may occasionally find “inaccurate” information when you select and drive to a point of interest (for example, a restaurant is now a jewelry store). The number of these inaccuracies increases the longer you go without an update.
The digitized map database reflects conditions as they existed at various points in time before production. Accordingly, your DVD may contain inaccurate or incomplete data or information due to the passage of time, road construction, changing conditions, or other causes.
In addition, this database does not include, analyze, process, consider, or reflect any of the following categories of information:
• Neighborhood quality or safety
• Population density
• Availability or proximity of law enforcement
• Emergency, rescue, medical, or other assistance
• Construction work, zones, or hazards
• Road and lane closures
• Legal restrictions (such as vehicular type, weight, load, height, and speed restrictions)
• Road slope or grade
• Bridge height, width, weight, or other limits
Database Limitations
• Road, traffic or traffic facilities safety, or conditions
• Weather conditions
• Special events
• Pavement characteristics or conditions
• Traffic congestion
• Travel time
We assume no liability for any incident that may result from an error in the program, or from changed conditions not noted above.

Frequently Asked Questions
Map, and Features, Voice Operation, Entering Addresses
Problem
Why does the Disclaimer screen need to be displayed every time I start the car? I am the only driver.
The Setup or Information screen has “grayed out” items that
I cannot select. Why?
I tried entering an address, but the city or street could not be found. Is there any other way to route to the location?
When I enter an address, some letters become grayed out. Is this normal?
Solution
The Disclaimer screen reminds you and your guest drivers to always operate the navigation system in a safe manner.
You need to select OK on the Disclaimer screen to view these items. See
System Function Diagram on page 20.
Some cities are lumped in with a major metro area Try entering the street first. In rural “unverified” areas or new subdivisions, streets may be missing, or only partially numbered. Try selecting the destination directly from the map. See By Map Input on page 36.
Yes, as you enter each letter in an address or a point of interest (POI), the system looks in the database to see what letters are possible and “grays out” letters that do not apply.
This is done in Setup, under “Personal Information.” See page 75.
How do I delete Personal Address, Previous Destinations, or the Home Address?
I cannot hear the navigation system voice.
The voice control system is having difficulty recognizing my
Voice commands.
When the system pronounces the street name in the guidance command, or reads the destination address it sounds strange.
What causes this?
When I drive at night, the screen is bright and will not switch to the night display mode. Why?
1) Ensure that Volume in the Setup screen (first) is not Off. See page 72.
2) Go to “Basic Settings” in the Setup screen (second), and set Voice
Recognition Feedback to On. See page 91.
Ensure that the vents are not blowing on the microphone on the ceiling, the vehicle is as quiet as possible, and that you are using the correct command when speaking (See Improving Voice Recognition on page 13). Say “Help” at any screen to see a list of the applicable voice commands.
The basic guidance phrase uses a studio-recorded voice, but the street name is pronounced by the system using a machine-generated voice.
Consequently, the name may be mispronounced or sound strange at times.
Verify the following: The display mode in Setup is set to Auto, the dash brightness is not set to maximum, and Map Color in Setup is set to Black for Night. See Display on page 73.
112 Navigation System
Frequently Asked Questions
Problem
The daytime map screen is dark like the night display mode, and it is hard to see. Why?
During the day, I turned on the lights because it started to rain, but the screen went dark. How can I make it still display day mode?
How can I input my destination using map coordinates?
How do I change or remove my PIN?
I forget the PIN for Home, or the PIN for personal addresses
(User 1 or User 2). How do I reset it?
Solution
Verify the following: The display mode in Setup is set to Auto, and Map
Color in Setup is set to Beige for Day. See Display on page 73.
Adjust the dash brightness to full bright. Remember to set it back to a medium setting, or at night, the screen will be bright. See Display on page 73.
The navigation system was not designed for this. However, you can view the coordinates of an address by touching the vehicle position icon on the map. See Map Screen Legend on page 49.
Go to “Personal Information” in the Setup screen (second), and select PIN
Number. Select User 1 or User 2 and enter your existing PIN. You then have the choice to change or remove the PIN. See page 79.
PINs are optional. See information regarding PINs on page 79. Your dealer can reset the PIN for you.
Navigation System 113
Frequently Asked Questions
Guidance, Routing
Problem
The navi does not route me the same way I would go, or the way some other mapping program displays. Why is this?
Why is the street I’m on not shown on the map? It has been here for more than a year.
The vehicle position icon is not following the road and the
“GPS icon” text in the upper left hand corner of the screen is white or missing.
I entered a destination, but the blue highlighted route and voice guidance stopped, or turned into a blue/purple dashed line before I got to my destination. Why is this?
The map rotates while I make a turns, How can I stop this?
Solution
The navigation system attempts to generate the optimum route. See
Changing the Routing Method on page 45.
The mapping database is constantly undergoing revision. See page 101 for ways to obtain the latest detailed coverage information.
• The GPS antenna (located under the center of the dash) may be blocked by personal items. For best reception, remove items from the dash, such as radar detectors, cell phones, or loose articles.
• Metallic tinting or other after-market devices can interfere with the GPS reception. Please see your dealer. Also see System Limitations on page 97.
Your route has entered an unverified area. See Unverified Area Routing on page 82.
Sometimes I can not select between the North-up, and
Heading-up map orientations, why is this?
While driving to my destination, the “time to go” display sometimes increases even though I am getting closer.
The vehicle position icon on the map “lags” a short distance behind especially when I arrive at an intersection. Is there anything wrong?
Select the “North-up” map orientation by voice, or by touching the map orientation icon on the map screen. See Map Orientation on page 54.
The “Heading-up” map orientation can only be shown in the lower scales
(1/20 - 1 mile scales). See Map Scale on page 53.
The “Time to go” is based on actual road speeds. However if you speed slows down when you encounter slower traffic, the system updates the
“Time to go” based of your actual speed to give you a better estimate of arrival time.
No, when at an intersection, the system is unaware of the width of the intersecting road. Large differences is vehicle position can indicate a temporary loss of the GPS signal. See GPS Reception Issues on page 97.
114 Navigation System
Frequently Asked Questions
While I drive, my screen shows white dots (“breadcrumbs”) on it. What do they mean?
Problem Solution
These are called “breadcrumbs.” If you drive more than 1/2 mile from mapped roads, the off-road tracking feature begins to function. See Off-road
Tracking on page 59 and 89.
How can I get rid of the white dots (“breadcrumbs”) from my screen?
Go to “Vehicle” in the Setup screen (second), and set Off-road Tracking to Off, then return to the map. See page 89.
A road that I selected to avoid is being used when routing.
What is wrong?
When I arrive at my destination, the “bulls-eye” is shown at a different location on the street. Why?
When you “draw” your area to avoid, make sure to select sections of roads that include at least one intersection. See page 86.
The system calculates the “bulls-eye” location based on the street address range allocated for that street. See Destination Icon on page 55 for an example.
My elevation (shown when I touch the vehicle position icon) seems to fluctuate even though my elevation has not changed.
My elevation is missing on the “current position” screen.
Why?
This is normal, and due to errors in satellite position. The elevation can vary
+/- 100 feet. See System Limitations on page 97.
If the GPS antenna cannot receive at least 4 satellites, the elevation is not displayed. Try moving the vehicle into an open area. If the elevation is zero, or below sea level, the elevation is also not displayed.

Frequently Asked Questions
Ordering a Navi DVD, Coverage, Map Errors, Limitations
Problem
I want to buy a new DVD. How do I purchase one?
When is my city going to become part of a fully verified detailed coverage area?
Will the navigation system work outside North America?
Solution
You cannot obtain a new DVD from the dealer. See Obtaining a Navigation
Update DVD on page 101.
I want to order a DVD. How can I determine the DVD version in my navigation system?
The version is on the label of your DVD. It starts with “Ver:.” See Changing
the DVD on page 102.
I got a Navi DVD from a “friend,” but it does not work. Why? Your vehicle was designed to use a white DVD. DVDs with different colored labels, or from different manufacturers, will not operate correctly.
Always obtain DVDs from the DVD order desk. See page 101.
The mapping database vendor is constantly revising map coverage. See page 101 for ways to obtain the latest detailed coverage information.
Can I play video DVDs in my navigation system?
The navigation system contains maps only for the lower 48 states, and portions of southern Canada. The system will not work in Mexico, Hawaii,
Alaska, or overseas. Canada coverage is limited. See Map Coverage on page 103.
No. The navigation system is designed only to read the white DVD provided with your vehicle. Map discs for other vehicle manufacturers, or PC map programs will not work.
I found some errors in the database. How do I report them?
Minor errors are bound to occur in a large database. If you encounter major errors, you can report them following the instructions on page 100.
116 Navigation System
Frequently Asked Questions
Display, Accessories
Problem
The display appears dim when starting the car in real cold weather. Is there a problem?
Rear Camera
Problem
When I shift gears, the rear camera image is delayed.
Solution
No, this is normal, and will become brighter after a few minutes.
The rear camera image is too dark or too bright, how do I adjust the brightness.
Solution
When shifting into or out of reverse, you may experience delays when the screen image switches between the navi screen and the rear camera image.
This is normal.
While the camera image is displayed, use the Zoom In/Zoom Out controls to adjust the brightness. This adjustment does not affect the Setup screen brightness adjustments.
Miscellaneous Other Questions
My clock frequently changes forward and backward by one hour. Why is this?
Problem Solution
The clock is being automatically set based on your GPS location. If you live and work on the boundary between two time zones, you can turn off this feature. See page 92.
When driving near a time zone border, the time changes even though I am not near the time zone. Why is this?
My state does not observe daylight savings time. How do I turn off this feature?
The time zone borders are only approximated in the system. Depending on the geography of the time zone boundary, the switch to a different zone can be erratic. See page 92.
You can turn off this feature. See page 91.
Navigation System 117
Frequently Asked Questions
Problem
Daylight savings time occurred, but the navigation system did not change time even though Setup shows “Auto Daylight
Saving Time” is “On.”
The navigation system automatic daylight time feature is not switching the navigation system clock on the correct dates.
Why is this?
The navigation system clock switched by one hour for no apparent reason. What can cause this?
My battery was disconnected, or went dead, and the navigation system is asking for a code. Where do I find this code?
Solution
Go to the Clock Adjustment screen in Setup and simply turn off the auto daylight savings time feature, and adjust your clock using or by one hour. For more information, see Clock Adjustment on page 91.
The navigation system is designed to switch to daylight savings time according to the schedule in effect at the time your vehicle was produced.
For more information, see Clock Adjustment on page 91.
1) You may be near a time zone boundary…(Covered in the other “clock”
FAQs)
2)
The navigation system does not, or incorrectly switches between standard and daylight savings time. Set the “Auto Daylight Saving Time” to “Off” on the Clock Adjustment screen in Setup. Manually adjust the clock by one hour as needed. See page 91 for more information.
There should have been a card in the glove box with the anti-theft code for the navigation/audio system. This card contains the 4-digit security code and serial number. If you cannot find it, your dealer can help you out.
I speak a language other than English. When will other languages be available for the navigation system?
This is being considered as a future enhancement.
