When I drive at night, the screen
is bright and will not switch
to the night display mode. Why? The system thinks it is in Day
display mode. Verify the following: The
display mode in Setup is set to Auto , the dash brightness is not set to
maximum (must adjust with headlights on), and Map Color in Setup is set
to Black for Night. See Display on page 78.
The daytime map screen is dark like the night display mode,
and it is hard to see. Why? Verify the following: The disp
lay mode in Setup is set to Auto, and Map
Color in Setup is set to White for Day. See Display on page 78.
During the day, I turned on the lights because it started to
rain, but the screen went dark. How can I make it still display
day mode? Adjust the dash brightness (+) button
(with headlights on) to full brightness.
Remember to set it back to a medium set ting, or at night, the screen will be
bright. See Display on page 78.
How can I input my destination using map coordinates? The navigation system was not designed for th is. However, you can view
the coordinates of an address by touching the vehicle position icon on the
map. See Map Screen Legend on page53.
How do I change or remove my PIN? Go to “Personal Information” in the Setup screen (second), and select PIN
Number . Select User 1 or User 2 and enter your existing PIN, and then
you have the choice to change or remove the PIN. See page 84.
I forgot the PIN for Home, or the PIN for personal addresses
(User 1 or User 2). How do I reset it? PINs are optional. See information regarding PINs on page
84. Your dealer
can reset the PIN for you.
CALL is not available on the Calculate route to screen.
Why? Your phone is not paired to HFL, or if
your phone is paired, it is in use or
does not have good coverage; press the HFL BACK button.
