the Setup or Information screens, some
items are not available, and will show
up as darkened buttons (grayed out).
See System Function Diagram on

Getting Started
System Function Diagram
This diagram shows the navigation
system features, starting at the center
and working outward in layers. The
navigation program starts at “Key ON,”
and then displays the globe screen
(blue). If OK is selected on the
Disclaimer screen, the functions in the
yellow segments of the diagram become
available in the Setup and Information
screens. The white segments of the
diagram are available anytime, even if
you do not select OK.
The items above the map screen show
various methods to begin driving to
your destination (orange). You are
provided with map/voice guidance,
routing cautions, and a direction list.
While driving to your destination, use

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 page61.
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.” The diagram below shows how the
system handles the search for “Places
Along the Route” or
“Places Around the
Destination” (see Waypoints on
page61). 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.

Frequently Asked Questions
Map, and Features, Voice Oper ation, Entering Addresses
Problem Solution
Why does the Disclaimer screen need to be displayed every
time I start the car? I am the only driver. The
Disclaimer screen reminds you and your guest drivers to always
operate the navigation sy stem in a safe manner.
The Setup or Information screen has “grayed out” items that
I cannot select. Why? You need to select
OK on the Disclaimer screen to view these items. See
System Function Diagram on page20.
I tried entering an address, but th e city or street could not be
found. Is there any other way to route to the location? 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 partiall y numbered. Try selecting the destination directly
from the map. See By Map Input on page
36.
When I enter an address, some letters become grayed out. Is
this normal? Yes, as you enter each letter in an addr
ess or a point of interest (POI), the
system looks in the databa se to see what letters are possible and “grays out”
letters that do not apply.
How do I delete Personal Address, Previous Destinations, or
the Home Address? This is done in Setup, under “P
ersonal Information.” See page
75.
I cannot hear the navigation sy stem voice. 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.
The voice control system is ha ving difficulty recognizing my
Voice commands. Ensure that the vents are not blow
ing on the microphone on the ceiling,
place your hand over the microphone; if you feel any airflow, adjust the
vents. Ensure 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.
When the system pronounces the street name in the guidance
command, or reads the destinat ion address it sounds strange.
What causes this? The basic guidance phrase uses a studio
-recorded voice, but the street name
is pronounced by the system us ing a machine-generated voice.
Consequently, the name may be misp ronounced or sound strange at times.
