Rear Camera
The media card will not fully insert into the PC card slot.
What is wrong? The PC card edge connector or the pins
in the back of PC card slot may be
damaged.
Never force the card into the slot - the adaptor card should glide smoothly into the slot. See your dealer if the problem persists.
I insert a CD-R with music file s, but the CD button, or “CD”
voice commands do not work. What is wrong? After inserting a CD-R with WMA or
MP3 files, a slight delay may occur
before the CD button operates. Th e system needs to read the tag
information (album, artist, and track na mes) to allow searches - this is
normal.
Ensure that the music files on the CD-R are the WMA or MP3 format. Other formats are not recognized.
Some WMA and MP3 files are copy pr otected, and require that the
copyright authentication files accompany the MP3/WMA files on the CD.
Note:
Never use CD-R discs with stick on labels. The labels can curl and
jam the CD mechanism requiring replacement of the navigation unit,
and subsequent loss of all personal information.
Problem Solution
When I shift gears, the rear camera image is delayed. 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.
The rear camera image is too dark or too bright, how do I
adjust the brightness. While the camera image is displayed, use the Zoom In/Zoom Out controls to
adjust the brightness. This ad
justment does not affect the Setup screen
brightness adjustments.

card slot accepts a PCMCIA adaptor
with a flash memory chip (see
page104).
Digitized Road - A road that appears on
the navigation screen. The road name
will appear at the bottom of the
navigation screen. If the user drives
“off road” the navigation system will

how far you drive from a mapped road.
Disclaimer Screen - Screen containing
cautionary information. It is meant to
be read carefully and acknowledged
by the customer when using the

page102.
FAQ - Frequently Asked Questions. See
page117 for a list of the customer
FAQs, and troubleshooting
information.
GPS - Global Positioning System. A
network of 24 satellites in orbit
around the earth. The navigation
system can simultaneously receive

the dash. Electronic items operating
in this general location can interfere
with the GPS signal.
Icon - Symbol representing Points of
Interest (POI) that can be displayed
on the map.

orbital information whenever the
navigation system power has been
disconnected. This can take 10 to 45
minutes with the vehicle out in an
open area.
LCD - Liquid Crystal Display. The
navigation screen.
Map Matching - The received GPS information allows the navigation
system to position the vehicle on the
map. Map matching has occurred if
