Maps
This section includes basic information needed to know
about the map database.
Map Coverage
The maps are stored on a DVD. The 48 contiguous
United States, along with Hawaii, Alaska, and portions
of Canada are contained on one disc.
Refer to the “Navigation System Map Disc” manual to
view a detailed explanation of map coverage and
detailed city lists in each region. This manual will be in
the map DVD case when the vehicle is delivered
from the factory.
Installing the DVD Map Disc
When a DVD Map Disc is installed, noise from the disc
may occur, this is normal system operation.
The navigation system in this vehicle uses a DVD to
store map information. When the system loads data from
the disc, you may hear a very slight buzz sound from
the navigation system. The sound is similar to that of a
CD player seeking through different tracks. This is
normal operation and may occur more frequently with
the use of XM NavTraffic.
Your dealer/retailer may have installed the map DVD.
If the map DVD was not installed, do the following
to load it:
1. Turn the ignition on.
2. Press the
O(power) knob to turn the navigation
system on or press the NAV, DEST, or MENU
hard keys. If the MENU hard key is selected, press
and hold until the NAV screen is active, or select
the NAV tab manually.
3. Touch the OK screen button to agree to the
Caution screen, if it appears. If the map is in
split screen mode, you must push the NAV tab
button to get the full map screen.

Navigation Audio System
Notice:Before adding any sound equipment to
the vehicle, such as an audio system, CD player,
CB radio, mobile telephone, or two-way radio,
make sure that it can be added by checking with
your dealer/retailer. Also, check federal rules
covering mobile radio and telephone units. If sound
equipment can be added, it is very important to
do it properly. Added sound equipment can interfere
with the operation of the vehicle’s engine, radio,
or other systems, and even damage them.
The vehicle’s systems can interfere with the
operation of sound equipment that has been added.
Notice:The chime signals related to safety belts,
parking brake, and other functions of the vehicle
operate through the navigation system. If that
equipment is replaced or additional equipment is
added to the vehicle, the chimes may not work.

Using an MP3 CD
MP3 Format
There are guidelines that must be met, when creating an
MP3 disc. If the guidelines are not met when recording a
CD-R(W), the CD may not play. The guidelines are:
Sampling rate: 16 kHz, 22.05 kHz, 24 kHz, 32 kHz,
and 44.1 kHz.
Bit rates supported: 32, 40, 48, 56, 64, 80, 96, 112,
128, 160, 192, 224, 256, and 320 kbps.

v1.0 or v1.1. The radio will display a lename, song
name, artist name, album name, and directory name.
Maximum 32 characters, including spaces, in a le or
folder name.
Maximum number of folders is 253 with a maximum
hierarchy of eight folders.

192 les on a disc.
The les can be recorded on a CD-R or CD-RW with

directory has compressed audio les, the directory
will be displayed as ROOT. All les contained directly
under the root directory will be accessed prior to
any root directory folders. However, playlists (Px) will
always be accessed before root folders or les.
Empty Directory or Folder
If a root directory or a folder exists somewhere in the
le structure that contains only folders/subfolders and no
compressed les directly beneath them, the player will
advance to the next folder in the le structure that
contains compressed audio les and the empty folder
