MOBILE MEDIA NAVIGATION SYSTEM
Your vehicle is equipped with a mobile media navigation system which
allows you to listen to, record and save music, play DVDs (audio and
video), navigate the vehicle and operate climate control functions (if
equipped).
Your system has a large range of features, yet is easy to use. The display
screen is the primary means for operating the system through the use of
its vertically tabbed menus, text screens and menu displays. Screen
selections are made by touching the desired selection on the touch
screen. The “tabs” along the left side of the screen represent the major
components of the system. The status bars at the top and bottom of the
screen will stay present for the majority of the time once the system is
turned on and ready for operation. The top status bar will contain menu
names, icons, and a clock. The lower status bar contains climate
information (if equipped), icons and advisory messages. Please refer to
Status bars in theSystem Overview chapter for more information.
Navigation guidance is shown on the display touch screen and is
supplemented with voice prompts.

DRIVING RESTRICTIONS
In order to prevent the navigation system from distracting you while
driving, access to certain functions are restricted when the vehicle is
traveling above 5 mph (8 km/h). At this time, only the Quick Destination
menu items are available for destination entry. Restricted functions
include:
• Touchscreen keyboard during destination entry (Street address, POI,
Freeway Entrance/Exit, Intersection)
• Scrolling of long lists
• Travel Link subscriptions (if active) such as movie times, ski
conditions, sports scores and scrolling of the weather map
• Editing/Adding entries in the Address Book
• Editing/Adding entries in the Avoid Areas List
• Jukebox restrictions such as creating/editing playlists, sorting playlists,
editing track, artist and album names
• Uploading photographs
Note: If your vehicle is equipped with SYNC, similar features will be
restricted also.
When the vehicle begins to move, and the Select Route Screen is shown,
the highlighted route is automatically selected and guidance begins.
When the vehicle speed is reduced to 5 mph (8 km/h) or less, system
restrictions are lifted and you have full access to the system.
