Navigation System
System SetupDisplayThere are two screen display modes:
Day and Night. The recommended
setting is Auto, which automatically
switches the screen between Day and
Night modes as you turn the headlights
on or off.
You can select Day or Night mode to
override the Auto mode. This is a
useful feature for drivers that like to use
headlights during the day and want to
temporarily override Night mode.
However, the screen in Day mode will
be extremely bright at night.

Navigation System
System SetupFor “Places Along the Route,” the
system looks in front of you within a
corridor width specified by your values
for “On Highways” or “On Surface
Street.” The system checks the
upcoming area, based on your input.
For “Places Around the Destination,”
the system searches outwards in a spiral
from the destination. In this case,
specific search values are not needed;
the matches are displayed in order of
distance from destination.
NOTE:
These settings do not affect the search
range used for the voice commands like
“Find nearest gas station” that are also
available when viewing the map screen.
Guidance ModeAllows you to select the guidance
display mode: Single Screen or Split
Screen.
To get to Guidance Mode from the
Setup screen, select in sequence
“More,” “Routing & Guidance,” and
“Guidance Mode.”
The factory default is Single Screen.
NOTE:
The Guidance Mode can also be
selected on the Icon Selection screen.
See Showing Icons on the Map on
page 58.
VehicleFrom the Setup screen (second), say or
select Vehicle and the following screen
appears:Off-road TrackingWith this On, the system will provide
white off-road tracking dots
(“breadcrumbs”) on the map screen
whenever you drive into an area where
the map does not show any roads.
See Map Screen Legend on page 19.

Navigation System105Client Assistance
PC Card OperationA PC card with WMA or MP3 audio
files can be played through the audio
system and controlled using the
navigation voice control system. PC
card (PCMCIA) adaptors and various
media chips can be purchased at any
computer store. Tested media chips
include Compact Flash and SD media,
up to 2GB. Other media types and
storage capacities may work, but have
not been tested. Hard disc drive type
media are not recommended because
they can fail in a hot vehicle. See the
FAQs section for additional
information.
Inserting the PC CardEnsure that the PCMCIA PC card
adaptor contains the media chip, and
that the card adaptor is fully inserted in
the slot, otherwise the display door will
not close. Once the card is inserted and
the door closed, there is a delay while
the system reads the tag information
(the folders, song titles, etc.). Once the
tag information is read, the “CARD” or
“TRACK LIST” buttons will function.
For more information on the search
feature, see the audio section of your
Owner’s Manual.Voice Control of PC Card
FunctionsThe navigation voice control system can
be used to select the first 30 tracks
directly by using the command, “Card
play track X” (X=1-30). Additional
voice commands allow the card tracks,
artists, and albums to be played in a
random, repeat, or scan mode. See the
complete list of “Card” voice
commands starting on see page 136.
CD/CD-R OperationA CD or a burned CD-R with MP3 or
WMA media files can be played by the
audio system and controlled using
navigation voice commands. The
display door will not close with a
partially inserted CD in the slot. Once
the display closes, there may be a slight
delay before the “CD” or “TRACK
LIST” buttons function. This is because
the system has to read the tag
information (artist, album, and track
names) to allow searches to function.
For more information on the search
feature, see the audio section of your
Owner’s Manual.
NOTE:
Ensure that burned CD-R discs do not
have “stick-on” paper labels. The label
adhesive can melt in a hot vehicle, and
allow the label to curl up and jam the
CD mechanism. Use a felt-tipped
marker to label your CD-R discs.

Frequently Asked QuestionsWhen I drive at night, the screen is bright and will not switch
to the night display mode. Why?The system thinks it’s 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 the headlights on), and Map Colour in Setup
is set to Black for Night. See Display on page 74.
The daytime map screen is dark like the night display mode,
and it is hard to see. Why?Verify the following: The display mode in Setup is set to Auto, and Map
Colour in Setup is set to White for Day. See Display on page 74.
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 (with the headlights on) to full bright. Remember
to set it back to a medium setting, or at night, the screen will be bright. See
Display on page 74.
How can I input my destination using map coordinates? The navigation system was not designed for this. However, you can view
the coordinates of an address by touching the vehicle position icon on the
map. See Map Screen Legend on page 50.
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 80.
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 80. 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. Problem Solution
