Section 4 Navigation System
4-1

Use the navigation system to:
Plan a route.
Select a destination using various methods and
choices.
Follow turn-by-turn route and map guidance with
voice prompts, only if permitted by traffic laws,
controls, and conditions.
Always be alert, obey traffic and roadway laws, and
instructions, regardless of the guidance from the
navigation system. Because the navigation system uses
street map information that does not include all traffic
restrictions or the latest road changes, it may suggest
using a road that is now closed for construction or a turn
that is prohibited by signs at the intersection. Because
the system uses limited information, you must always
evaluate whether following the system’s directions
is safe and legal for the current conditions.
When the navigation system is turned on, a screen may
appear with the information below, and you must
read and acknowledge the information it contains.
After you acknowledge the start up information you will
be able to access the NAV (navigation) and DEST
(destination) functions. Once accessed, you can enter
or delete information in the navigation system or access
other functions. See instructions later in this section.
Deleting Personal Information
This navigation system can record and store
destinations. At times, such as when you are disposing
of the vehicle, you may want to delete these
destinations. Refer to the following sections to delete
the destination information that has been stored.
See “Deleting Single Memory Points”, “Deleting All
Memory Points”, “Preset Dests.” (Destinations), “Home”
and “Previous Dest.” (Destination) underEdit Memory
Point on page 4-19for deleting stored destinations.
Storing Radio Station Presets
To set preset radio stations:
1. Press the PWR/VOL knob to turn the system on.
2. Press the audio source screen button (AM, FM1,
FM2, etc.) and select the desired band (AM, FM1,
FM2, XM1, or XM2 (if equipped), or WX (weather)
(if equipped)).
3. Use the TUNE/SEEK arrows to tune to the desired
station.
4. Press and hold one of the six preset screen buttons,
at the bottom of the screen, until a beep is heard
or see the station displayed on the selected preset
button.
5. Repeat the steps for each preset.
See “Preset Station Menu” underNavigation Audio
System on page 4-52for more information.
