System Setup
With Unverified Area Routing OFF ,
you are presented with a blue “vector
line” that always points to the
destination. You must manually choose
streets from the map that will lead to
your destination. No guidance is
provided, and there ar e no directions to
the destination.
With Unverified Area Routing ON ,
a blue/pink route line is shown for
unverified segmen ts. Voice guidance
commands in unverified areas always
end with “if possible.” This is your
signal that you should use additional
caution, and obey all traffic restrictions.
The maneuver window “arrow” shows
any portions of unverified turns in blue/
pink dashes.
These guidance maneuvers are only a
suggestion. You should always confirm
that the maneuver is possible. A
directions list is also provided that
shows any unverified roads in a blue
color, with pink arrows pointing to the
next maneuver. Unverified Area Routing “OFF”
NOTE:
For the pop-up menu displayed when
pushing in on the
Interface Dial from
the map screen, Voice and
Directions are grayed out. With
Unverified Area Routing “OFF,” no
Direction List is provided. Unverified Area
Routing “ON”

Coverage Areas
Address and POI Entry Screens
When in Hawaii, the following
differences occur for map, address, and
POI selection:
 It is not possible to enter U.S.
mainland addresses or scroll the map
east to the U.S. mainland.
 Selection of the “State” is confined to the state of Hawaii only.
 Entry of a destination address or POI on an island other than your current
island may result in a screen caution
message. This is normal because
there are no “ferry” routes between
islands available in the database.
 If the “Guidance Prompts” setting on the SETUP screen ( Main Setup ) is
set to normal or maximum, street
names will not be spoken in voice
guidance commands.
Setup Screen Differences
The SETUP screen differences are
minor and are listed below. See the
Setup section (page 76) for additional
information.
Routing and Guidance (Unverified
Area Routing On/Off)
This feature is unavailable. All roads
displayed on the map are verified.
Clock Adjust Screen
There is no daylight savings time for
Hawaii. Auto Daylight , Auto Time
Zone , and DST Selection will not be
shown on the Clock adjustment
screen. To test your adjustment, use the
voice control system, and say “What
time is it?” (see page93).
Information Screen Differences
Bluetooth
® HandsFreeLink®
Operation
When pairing a cell phone to use the
Bluetooth® HandsFreeLink® feature,

Frequently Asked Questions
Guidance, Routing
Problem Solution
The navigation does not route me the same way I would go, or
the way some other mapping progr am displays. Why is this?The navigation system attempts to
generate the optimum route. See
Changing Routing Method on page47.
Why is the street I’m on not s hown on the map? It has been
here for more than a year. The mapping database is
constantly undergoing revision. See page
111 for
ways to obtain the latest detailed coverage information.
The vehicle position icon is not following the road, and the
“GPS icon” text in the upper left hand corner of the screen is
white or missing.  The GPS antenna (located under
the dashboard) may be blocked by
personal items. For best re ception, remove items from the dashboard, such
as radar detectors, cell phones, or loose articles.
 Metallic tinting or other aftermarke t devices can interfere with the GPS
reception. Please see your dealer. Also see System Limitations on
page
104.
I entered a destination, but th e blue highlighted route and
voice guidance stopped, or turned into a blue/pink dashed line
before I got to my dest ination. Why is this? Your route has entered
an unverified area. See Unverified Area Routing on
page
86.
The map rotates while I make turns. How ca n I stop this? Select the North-up map orientation by voice, or by selecting “North-up”
from the Map menu . See Map Orientation on page
57.
Sometimes, I cannot select between the North-up and
Heading-up map orienta tions. Why is this? The Heading-up map orient
ation can only be shown in the lower scales
(1/20 - 1 mile scales). See Map Scale on page
56.
While driving to my destinati on, the “time to go” display
sometimes increases, even though I am getting closer. The “Time to go” is based on actual
road speeds. However if your speed
slows down when you encounter slower traffic, the system updates the
“Time to go” based of your actual spee d to give you a better estimate of
arrival time.
The vehicle position icon on the map “lags” a short distance
behind, especially when I arrive at an intersection. Is there
anything wrong? No. When at an intersection, the syst
em is unaware of the width of the
intersecting road. Large differences in vehicle position can indicate a
temporary loss of the GPS signal. See GPS Reception Issues on page
104.

Glossary
Glossary
The following is a glossary of terms
pertaining to the voice recognition
navigation system.
Avoid Area - Areas you wish to avoid
can be entered into the system, and
will be avoided while routing.
Breadcrumbs - Off-road tracking dots
that can be followe d on the map to
retrace your route back to a mapped
(digitized) road. This function can be
turned on/off in the SETUP screen
( Other ).
Database - This consists of the map
data, and the POI (Points of Interest)
data stored on the DVD.
DCA - Detailed Coverage Area. The
main metropolitan areas in the lower
48 U.S. states, Hawaii, and southern
Canada are mapped to this level. See
page111 for a list of these areas. 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
display “breadcrumbs,” depending on
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
navigation system.
DVD or DVD-ROM - Digital Versatile
Disc. The navigation program and
database resides on this disc. For
information on how to order a
replacement or update DVD, see
page109. FAQ -
Frequently Asked Questions. See
page125 for a list of 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
signals from up to 12 satellites to
accurately position the vehicle on the
map.
GPS Antenna - Located under the
dashboard. Electronic items operating
in this general location can interfere
with the GPS signal.
HFL - Bluetooth® HandsFreeLink®.
Your vehicle is equipped with this
feature, which uses Bluetooth
technology as a wireless link between
the vehicle and your Bluetooth-
compatible cell phone.
Icon - Symbol representing Points of
Interest (POI) that can be displayed
on the map.
