System Setup
Clock Adjustment
From the SETUP screen ( Other), say
or select Clock Adjustment and the
following screen appears:
This screen allows you to set or adjust
the following:
 Auto Daylight (Default = ON)
 Auto Time Zone (Default = ON)
 DST (Daylight Savings Time) Selection (change DST schedule)
 Time Adjustment (adjust your clock)
 RESET (resets this screen’s settings to factory defaults)
Auto Daylight
Sets automatic daylight savings time
ON or OFF . If set to ON , the 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
savings time is not used, then you may
want to turn this feature off.
NOTE:
If you set Auto Daylight to ON , the Auto
Daylight function is activated even in an
area that does not use daylight savings
time.
The federal government has mandated
that, starting in 2007, daylight savings
time will begin in March and end in
November instead of the old schedule
from April to October. The new
schedule is subject to review and
possible cancellation in 2008. The schedules for the time changes are
stored in the software and can be
selected in the
DST schedule
selection screen. Therefore, your clock
will change based on the daylight
savings time schedule.
NOTE:
The automatic clock setting feature
relies on a satellite signal. It will not
work correctly in Hawaii and Alaska.

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.

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 back to the
“April-October” schedule.

Frequently Asked Questions
When I drive at night, the screen is bright and will not switch
to the night display mode. Why? Verify the following: Th
e nighttime dash brightness control is not set to
maximum, and Map Color in SETUP is set to Black for Night. See
Switching Display Mode Manually on page113.
The daytime map screen is dark like the night display mode,
and it is hard to see. Why? Verify the following: The
Map Color in SETUP is set to White for Day.
See Switching Display Mode Manually on page113.
Once I press the Display Mode button , the screen no
longer automatically switches between day and night display
modes. Why is this? This is normal. Once you press the
Display Mode button , you are
manually controlling the display mode. Your manual display mode setting is
canceled the next time the vehicle is started.
How can I input my destination using map coordinates? The navigation system was not designed for this. However, you can view
the coordinates of an address by pushing in on the Interface Dial, selecting
Show Icon on Map , and moving the Interface Dial left to select
Current Location . See Map Screen Legend on page55.
How do I change or remove my PIN? Go to “Personal Information” in the SETUP screen (Other ), and select PIN
Number . Select User 1 or User 2 and enter your existing PIN, and then
you have the choice to change or remove the PIN. See page97.
I forgot the PIN for Home, or the PIN for personal addresses
(User 1 or User 2). How do I reset it? PINs are optional. See information regarding PINs on page97. Your dealer
can reset the PIN for you.
CALL is not available on the Calculate route to screen.
Why? Your phone is not paired to the HFL, or
if your phone is paired, it is in use
or does not have good coverage; press the HFL BACK button.
