Frequently Asked Questions
The vehicle position icon on the map “lags” a short distance
behind, especially when I arrive at an intersection. Is there
anything wrong? No. When at an intersection, the syst
em is unaware of the width of the
intersecting road. Large differences in vehicle position can indicate a
temporary loss of the GPS signal. See GPS Reception Issues on page129.
While I drive, my screen s hows white dots (“breadcrumbs”)
on it. What do they mean? These are called “breadcrumbs.”
If you drive more than 1/2 mile from
mapped roads, the off-road tracking feature begins to function. See Off-road
Tracking on page 71 and 115.
How can I get rid of the white dots (“breadcrumbs”) from my
screen? Go to “Vehicle” in the
SETUP screen (Other ), and set Off-road
Tracking to OFF, then return to the map. See page 115.
A road that I selected to avoi d is being used when routing.
What is wrong? When you “draw” your area to avoid, make
sure to select sections of roads
that include at least one intersection. See page110.
My elevation (shown when I di splay the current position)
seems to fluctuate even though my elevation has not changed. This is normal and due to errors in sa
tellite position. The elevation can vary
+/- 100 feet. See System Initialization on page127.
My elevation is missing on the “current pos ition” screen.
Why? If the GPS antenna cannot receive signals
from at least four satellites, the
elevation is not displayed. Try moving the vehicle into an open area. If the
elevation is zero, or belo w sea level, the elevation is also not displayed.

Frequently Asked Questions
Daylight saving time occurred, but the navigation system did
not change time even though SETUP shows Auto Daylight
is ON . The automatic daylight saving time feature does not work in regions where
the daylight saving time
system is not adopted.
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 is ON .
2) The automatic daylight saving time feature does not work in regions
where the daylight saving ti me system is not adopted.
For more information, see page 114.
The navigation system clock switched by one hour for no
apparent reason. Wh at can cause this? You may be driving near
a time zone boundary (see Auto Daylight on
page 114). See page 115 (Auto Time Zone) for more information.
My 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 syst
em. This card contains the 5-digit security code and
serial number. If you cannot find it , your dealer can help you out.
I speak a language other than English. Are there any other
languages available for the system? Besides English, you may select Fr
ançais or Español for your language
setting.
