Frequently Asked Questions
I insert a PC card with music files, but the CARD button or
navigation “PC Card” voice commands do not work. What’s
wrong? • After inserting the card, a delay of up to 30 seconds may be required to
read the tag information (a lbum, artist, and track names) - this is normal.
• Ensure that the music files on the media chip are either WMA or MP3
music format. Other form ats are not recognized.
• Some downloaded WMA and MP3 files are copy protected, and require that the copyright authentication files accompany the MP3/WMA files on
the Card.
• Media types and capacities continue to grow. As a rule, stick to Co mpact
Flash or SD media with capacities of 2GB or less. Other types of me dia or
larger capacities may work, but have not been tested.
• Single-type media PC Card adapto rs are recommended over multimedia-
type adaptors.
• Ensure that there are files on the card. For SD and other media with a
write-lock switch, ensure that the writ e protect is off when adding files to
the card.
• The system only recognizes FAT and FAT-32 file format for the media.
Some of the files on the PC card will not play, or I have an
eight GB card with 2500 songs, but only 999 play. Why is
this? • The quantity of tracks is limited to
999 tracks and a file structure of up to
eight folder levels deep. Tracks be yond 999 are simply not recognized.
• Ensure that the music files on the media chip are either WMA or MP3
music format. Other form ats are not recognized.
When I eject the media chip bu t leave the empty adaptor in
the PC card slot, the display door will not close. Why is this? To prevent damage to the display mechanism or your PC card/media chip,
the system checks for a partially insert
ed PC card and a partially inserted
media chip. Always remove the PC car d and media chip when not in use.
The media card will not fully insert into the PC card slot.
What is wrong? • The PC card edge connector or the pins
in the back of PC card slot may be
damaged.
• Never force the card into the slot - the adaptor card should glide smoothly
into the slot. See your dealer if the problem persists.

Frequently Asked QuestionsI insert a CD-R with music files, but the CD button or “CD”
voice commands do not work. What is wrong?• After inserting a CD-R with WMA or MP3 files, a slight delay may occur
before the CD button operates. Th e system needs to read the tag
information (album, artist, and track na mes) to allow searches - this is
normal.
• Ensure that the music files on the CD-R are WMA or MP3 format. Other formats are not recognized.
• Some WMA and MP3 files are copy protected, and require that the
copyright authentication files accompany the MP3/WMA files on the CD.
Note:
Never use CD-R discs with stick-on labels. The labels can curl and
jam the CD mechan ism, requiring replacemen t of the navigation unit
and subsequent loss of all personal information.

Miscellaneous Other Questions
Problem Solution
My clock frequently changes forward and backward by one
hour. Why is this? The clock is being automatically set based on your GPS location. If you live
and work on the boundary between two time zones, you can turn off t
his
feature. See page 95.
When driving near a time zone border, the time changes even
though I am not near the time zone. Why is this? The time zone borders are only approximated in the system. Dependin
g on
the geography of the time zone boundary, the switch to a different zone can
be erratic. See page 95.
My state does not observe daylight saving time. How do I turn
off this feature? You can turn off this feature. See page 94.
Daylight saving time occurred, but the navigation system did
not change time even though Setup shows Auto Daylight
Saving Time is
On . Go to the
Clock adjustment screen in Setup and select DST Selection.
Ensure that the correct DST schedule is selected. For more
information, see
Clock Settings on page 94.
The navigation system automatic daylight time feature is not
switching the navigation system clock on the correct dates.
Why is this? 1) Go to the Clock adjustment
screen in Setup and ensure that Auto
Daylight Saving Time is On
.
2) The navigation system is designed to switch to daylight saving tim e
according to the months selected in the DST schedule selection
screen.
Ensure that the appropriate schedule is selected. For more information,
see Clock Settings
on page 94.
The navigation system clock switched by one hour for no
apparent reason. What can cause this? 1) You may be driving near a time zone boundary (see
Auto Time Zone by
GPS on page 95).
2) The navigation system does not switch between standard and daylight saving time. Set Auto Daylight Saving Time to
On on the Clock
adjustment screen in Setup, and ensure that the correct month switching
schedule is chosen on the DST schedule selection screen. See page 94
for more information.

Frequently Asked QuestionsMy battery was disconnected or went dead, and the
navigation system is asking for a code. Where do I find this
code?There should be a card in the glove
box with the anti-theft code for the
navigation/audio system. This card contains the 4-digit security code and
serial number. If you cannot find it, your dealer can help you out.
I speak a language other than English. When will other
languages be available for the navigation system? This is being considered as a future enhancement.

Screen Error Message Solution
Navigation system is unable to acquire a proper GPS signal.
Make sure there is nothing on the dashboard blocking the GPS antenna
(aftermarket metallic window tinting or aftermarket devices placed on the
dashboard, like radar detectors, cell phones, or loose items). If the dashboa rd
is clear of objects, move the vehicle to an open space away from tall buildings,
trees, etc.

Navigation unit door is open or No DVD disc is inserted.
Please check system. Make sure that the navigation DVD disc is inserted with the label side up
