Getting Started
System Function Diagram
This diagram shows the navigation
system features, starting at the center
and working outward in layers. The

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 INFO

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
the voice control system as much as
possible to interact with the navigation,

108Navigation System
System Setup
The diagram below shows how the
system handles the search for “Places
Along the Route” or “Places Around the
Destination” (see Search Waypoint on
page74). 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 th
e destination,” the
system searches outw ards 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: Single Screen or Split
Screen .
To get to Guidance Mode from the
SETUP screen, select in sequence,
“Other” tab, “Routing & Guidance,”
and “Guidance Mode.”
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
page67.

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 INFO 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 page26.
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 ne
w subdivisions, streets may be missing
or only partially numbered. Try selecting the destin ation directly from the
map. See By Map Input on page45.
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 Addre sses, Previous Destinations,
or the Home Address? This is done in the
SETUP screen ( Other), under “Personal Information.”
See page
93.
I cannot hear the navigation sy stem voice. 1) Ensure that Volume in the SETUP screen ( Main Setup ) is not OFF.
See page
92.
2) Go to “Basic Settings” in the SETUP screen ( Other), and set Voice
Recognition Feedback to ON . See page
99.
The voice control system is ha ving difficulty recognizing my
voice commands. Ensure that the vents are not blowi
ng on the microphone on the ceiling, the
vehicle is as quiet as possible, and you are using the correct command when
speaking (see Improving Voice Recognition on page
14). Say “Help” at any
screen to see a list of the applicable voice commands. If the system cannot
recognize your command because of background noise, speak louder.
When the system pronounces the street name in the guidance
command or reads the destinati on 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.
