• Voice Command List (page 131)
System OverviewYour navigation system is a highly
sophisticated location system with voice
control that uses satellites and a map
database to show you where you are and to
help guide you to a desired destination.
The navigation system receives signals
from the global positioning system (GPS),
a network of 24 satellites in orbit around
the earth. By receiving signals from several
of these satellites, the navigation system
can determine the latitude, longitude, and
elevation of your vehicle. In addition, a
gyroscopic yaw sensor and a vehicle speed
sensor in your vehicle keep track of the
direction and speed of travel at all times.
This vehicle’s navigation display, if so
equipped, includes mercury-containing
components. Upon removal, please reuse,
recycle, or dispose of as hazardous waste.
The navigation system applies this
location, direction, and speed information
to the maps and calculates a route to the
destination you enter. As you drive to that
destination, the system provides map and
voice guidance.NOTICE

Navigation System5
Introduction
The navigation system is easy to use.
The locations of many places of
business and entertainment are already
entered in the system. You can select
any of them as a destination by using the
touch screen, joystick, or voice control.
There are several ways to enter a
destination, such as by point of interest
(POI), by address, by phone number,
and by selecting it from the map. The
last 50 destinations are saved for reuse
at a later date. The system also allows
you to store a home address to simplify
returning home from your destination.
Accessories PrecautionsIf you have front or side window tinting
installed, be aware that if the tint has
metallic properties, it can seriously
degrade or prevent GPS reception. This
is because the GPS antenna is located
under the dashboard.
If you plan to install electronic
components, such as radar detectors,
vehicle tracking devices, remote
starters, additional amplifiers, or other
audio components, ensure that they are
not located near the navigation control
unit under the dashboard, near the
navigation screen in the dash, or near
the GPS antenna under the dashboard.
Signal noise emanating from these
devices can cause intermittent
disruption of the navigation system.
Important Safety InformationThe navigation system can distract your
attention from the road if you focus on
the screen or operate the system’s
controls while driving.
Enter as much information as possible
into the system before you begin
driving, or when the vehicle is stopped.
Then, as you drive, listen to the audio
instructions and use voice commands
when possible.
Navigation System11Getting Started
Joystick/ENT buttonMoves left, right, up, and down to move
the highlighting around the display, to
scroll through lists, or to look around a
displayed map. After making a selection
in a menu or list, push in on the joystick
to enter the selection into the system.
In almost all cases, you can enter a
selection into the system by using the
voice control system, highlighting the
item and pushing in on the joystick, or
by touching the appropriate item you
wish to select.INFO buttonDisplays the screen for selecting

NOTE:
The NAVI BACK button on the steering
wheel performs the same basic function.ZOOM (IN)/ (OUT) buttonsPress ZOOM to zoom in (to show
more detail), or ZOOM to zoom out
(to show more area and less detail)
while a map screen is displayed.
ZOOM IN reduces the scale (showing
less area with greater detail). ZOOM
OUT increases the scale (showing more
area with less detail). See page 54.AUDIO buttonPress to display the audio screen.
For information on audio system
features, see the Audio section of your
Owner’s Manual.Other buttonsSee the Audio section of your Owner’s
Manual.
ScreenAll selections and instructions are
displayed on the screen. In addition, the
display is a “touch screen” – you can
enter information into the system by
touching the images (icons) on the
screen with your finger.
For example, if you need to enter a
street name, a keyboard will be
displayed. You can type in the street
name by saying or selecting the
individual characters on the screen.
Clean the screen with a soft damp cloth.
You may use a mild cleaner intended for
use on liquid crystal displays (LCDs).
Harsher chemicals may damage the
screen.

Navigation System
Getting StartedVoice Control BasicsYour vehicle has a voice control system
that allows hands-free operation of most
of the navigation system functions. You
can also control the audio and climate
control system. The voice control
system uses the NAVI TALK and NAVI
BACK buttons on the steering wheel
and a microphone near the map lights on
the ceiling.
NOTE:
While using the voice control system, all
of the speakers are muted.
NAVI TALK buttonThis button activates the voice control
system. Press and release it when you
want to give a voice command. See
Voice Command Index on page 131 for
a list of voice commands.
NAVI BACK buttonThis button has the same function as the
CANCEL button. When you press and
release it, the display returns to the
previous screen. When the previous
screen appears, the system replays the
last prompt. This button is enabled for
navigation system commands only.
However, it can be used to cancel an
audio or climate control voice command
up to one second after the command
confirmation.
NOTE:
The NAVI TALK and NAVI BACK
buttons are deactivated while using the
Bluetooth® HandsFreeLink® feature.
See your Owner’s Manual for
information on this system.

Navigation System13Getting Started
Using the Voice Control SystemYou should use the voice control system
as much as possible, and consider
manual entry using the joystick as a
backup method of entry.
Most of the system’s functions can be
controlled by voice commands activated
with the NAVI TALK button. To
control the navigation system by voice:
• Press and release the NAVI TALK
button.
• Wait for the beep.
• Give a voice command.
Once the microphone picks up your
command, the system changes the
display in response to the command and
prompts you for the next command.
Using the NAVI TALK button, answer
the prompts as required.If the system does not understand a
command or you wait too long to give a
command, it responds with “Pardon,”
“Please repeat,” or “Would you say
again.” If the system cannot perform a
command or the command is not
appropriate for the screen you are on, it
sounds a beep.
Anytime you are unsure of what voice
commands are available on a screen,
you can always say “Help.” The system
will then read the list of available
commands to you.
When you give a command, the system
generally either repeats the command as
a confirmation or asks you for further
information. If you do not wish to hear
this feedback, you can turn it off.
However, hearing the feedback will
familiarize you with the way the system
expects commands to be phrased. See
the Voice Recognition Feedback
setting in Setup.If you hear a prompt such as “Please use
the touch screen to...” or “Please choose
an area with the joystick,” the system is
asking for input that cannot be
performed using the voice control
system.
Improving Voice RecognitionTo achieve optimum voice recognition
when using either the navigation or
Bluetooth® HandsFreeLink® voice
control system, the following guidelines
should be followed:
NOTE:
Make sure the correct screen is
displayed for the voice command that
you are using. See Voice Command
Index on page 131.
• Adjust the dashboard and side vents
so air does not blow against the
microphone on the ceiling.
• Close the windows and the sunroof.

Getting StartedIf you select OK, the reminder will not
show up again. If you wish to have the
reminder show up again later in the day,
touch the Remind Later button.
If you press the CANCEL button, the
message will be displayed the next time
you start the vehicle.
NOTE:
The system will display the current
message and any older or previously
unread messages, with the newest
message listed first.
Bluetooth
® HandsFreeLink
®
If you have a Bluetooth-compatible cell
phone that is paired, then CALL on the
Calculate route to screen is enabled. When you select CALL, the system
dials the number shown on the screen. If
CALL is not available (dark gray), and
your phone is paired, then make sure the
phone has service or that HFL is not in
use; press the HFL BACK button.
