Satellite radio (if activated)
Your vehicle is equipped with satellite radio capability. The factory installed
SIRIUS satellite radio system includes a limited subscription term which
begins on the date of sale / lease of the vehicle. Extended subscription
terms are available, please contact SIRIUS at 1–888–539–7474.
You will need to give SIRIUS your Satellite Radio ESN Number for
activation. The ESN number is found on the System Information Screen
(SR ESN:XXXXXXXXXXXX). Press the I button (
) on the navigation
system and select the ‘System Info’ tab on the touchscreen.
Satellite radio channels:SIRIUS broadcasts a variety of music, news,
sports, weather, traffic and entertainment satellite radio channels. For
more information and a complete list of SIRIUS satellite radio channels,
visit www.sirius.com in the United States, www.sirius-canada.ca in
Canada, or call SIRIUS at 1–888–539–7474.
Satellite radio reception factors:To receive the satellite signal, your
vehicle has been equipped with a satellite radio antenna located on the
roof of your vehicle. The vehicle roof provides the best location for an
unobstructed, open view of the sky, a requirement of a satellite radio
system. Like AM/FM, there are several factors that can affect satellite
radio reception performance:
•Antenna Obstructions: For optimal reception performance, keep the
antenna clear of snow and ice build-up and keep luggage and other
material as far away from the antenna as possible.
•Terrain: Hills, mountains, tall buildings, bridges, tunnels, freeway
overpasses, parking garages, dense tree foliage and thunderstorms can
interfere with your reception.
•Station overload: When you pass a ground based broadcast repeating
tower, a stronger signal may overtake a weaker one and result in an
audio mute.
Unlike AM/FM audible static, you will hear an audio mute when there is
a satellite radio signal interference. Your radio display may display
ACQUIRING...toindicatetheinterference.
SIRIUS satellite radio service:SIRIUS Satellite Radio is a subscription
based satellite radio service that broadcasts music, sports, news and
entertainment programming. A service fee is required in order to receive
SIRIUS service. Vehicles that are equipped with a factory installed
SIRIUS Satellite Radio system include:
•Hardware and limited subscription term, which begins on the date of
sale or lease of the vehicle.

AVOID AREAS
You can tell the navigation system to avoid certain areas when
calculating a route.
1. Press the NAV hard button on the navigation system.
2. Select the ‘Avoid Areas’ tab to
select specific areas which you
would like the navigation system to
avoid when routing to destination.
3. Select ‘Add’ to add areas for the
system to avoid.
The system will show you your
current avoid area on a map screen.
You can then choose to ’reduce’ the
avoid area, ‘expand’ the avoid area
or to ‘save’ the shown area. When
you are satisfied with your choice,
select ‘Save Area’. You can also
choose to edit the name of the
location. The system will add the
area to your ’avoid list’ and will
avoid that chosen area when calculating a route.
The system will do its best to avoid the items and areas that have been
set by the user. There will be some situations where it may be impossible
to completely honor avoid settings, for example, if a destination or
waypoint is located in an area that is set to avoid, the system will not be
able to avoid it.
Navigation voice commands (if equipped)
Press
or VOICE on the steering wheel controls. When prompted, say,
“Navigation” and then wait for the system to sound two tones and you
may say any of the following commands:

PRINCIPLES OF GPS
Your system directs you based on information derived from global
positioning satellites, road maps stored on the hard disk drive, sensors in
your vehicle and the desired destination. The system compiles all
necessary information to guide you to your selected destination. Space
satellites determine the vehicle’s current location and transmit position
and time signals to your car. If the vehicle has been parked for a long
period of time, the navigation function may be temporarily unresponsive.
The navigation system will operate reliably again once GPS reception is
available for a few minutes.
LIMITED GPS RECEPTION
System performance may be adversely affected if GPS reception is
interrupted or interference occurs over a distance of several miles. The
following are possible causes for GPS reception being interrupted. If the
vehicle is:
•In multi-story parking garages
•In tunnels and under bridges
•Inside or in between buildings
•By forests or tree-lined avenues
•In heavy rain showers and thunderstorms
•In valleys and in mountainous regions
•Roads under cliffs
Ensure that you do not have any metal objects on the dashboard and
that if your windows are tinted, they use non-metal tinting instead of
metal oxide tinting. Both of these factors can also interrupt GPS
reception.
SYSTEM LIMITATIONS
Cold temperature start:When operating the system below 32° F
(0°C), the display screen requires a 2–3 minutes warm-up time to
achieve maximum brightness.
Other conditions:When calculating a route, the system doesn’t take
into consideration any of the following conditions:
•Traffic Conditions
•Weather Conditions
•Driving Habits
