When you turn the ignition to ON (II), it
takes several seconds for the navigation
system to boot up.
The first screen to appear is the

the map screen will appear on the
display. The “OK” cannot be activated
by voice.
If you do not push in on the Interface
Dial , the screen will go dark after 30
seconds. To return to the Disclaimer
screen, press any navigation or voice
control button.
NOTE:
If you do not select OK, and then enter
the SETUP or INFO screen, some
items are not available and will show up
as darkened buttons (grayed out). See
System Function Diagram on page 26.
If you have entered any Calendar
reminders, they are displayed after you
select OK. The
Calendar reminder screen
remains displayed until you select OK
or Remind Later by rotating the
Interface Dial knob and pushing in
on the Interface Dial , or press the
CANCEL button.
If you select OK and push in on the
Interface Dial , the reminder will not
show up again. If you wish to have the

Getting Started
System Function Diagram
This diagram shows the navigation
system features, starting at the center
and working outward in layers. The
navigation program starts at “Key ON,”
and then displays the globe screen
(blue). If OK is selected on the
Disclaimer screen, the functions in the
yellow segments of the diagram become
available in the SETUP and INFO
screens. The white segments of the
diagram are available anytime, even if
you do not select OK.
The items above the map screen show
various methods to begin driving to
your destination (orange). You are
provided with map/voice guidance,
routing cautions, and a direction list.
While driving to your destination, use
the voice control system as much as
possible to interact with the navigation,
audio, and climat e control systems
(green).

108Navigation System
System Setup
The diagram below shows how the
system handles the search for “Places
Along the Route” or “Places Around the
Destination” (see Search Waypoint on
page 74). For “Places Along the Route,” the
system looks in front
of you within a
corridor width specified by your values
for “On Freeways” 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 Mode
Allows you to select the guidance
display mode: Single Screen or Split
Screen .
To get to Guidance Mode from the
SETUP screen, select in sequence,
“Other” tab, “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 67.

Frequently Asked Questions
Map and Features, Voice Operation, Entering Addresses
Problem Solution
Why does the Disclaimer screen need to be displayed every
time I start the car? I am the only driver. The
Disclaimer screen reminds you and your guest drivers to always
operate the navigation sy stem in a safe manner.
The SETUP or INFO screen has “grayed out” items that I
cannot select. Why? You need to select
OK on the Disclaimer screen to view these items. See
System Function Diagram on page 26.
I tried entering an address, but th e city or street could not be
found. Is there any other way to route to the location? Some cities are lumped in with a major metro area. Try entering the street
first. In rural “unverified” areas or ne
w subdivisions, streets may be missing
or only partially numbered. Try selecting the destination directly from the
map. See By Map Input on page 45.
When I enter an address, some letters become grayed out. Is
this normal? Yes. As you enter each letter in an addr
ess or a point of interest (POI), the
system looks in the databa se to see what letters are possible and “grays out”
letters that do not apply.
How do I delete Personal Addre sses, Previous Destinations,
or the Home Address? This is done in the
SETUP screen ( Other), under “Personal Information.”
See page 93.
I cannot hear the navigation system voice. 1) Ensure that Volume in the SETUP screen ( Main Setup ) is not OFF.
See page 92.
2) Go to “Basic Settings” in the SETUP screen ( Other), and set Voice
Recognition Feedback to ON . See page 99.
The voice control system is ha ving difficulty recognizing my
voice commands. Ensure that the vents are not blowing on the microphone on the ceiling, the
vehicle is as quiet as
possible, and you are using the correct command when
speaking (see Improving Voice Recognition on page 14). Say “Help” at any
screen to see a list of the applicable voice commands. If the system cannot
recognize your command because of background noise, speak louder.
When the system pronounces the street name in the guidance
command or reads the destinati on address, it sounds strange.
What causes this? The basic guidance phrase uses a studio
-recorded voice, but the street name
is pronounced by the system us ing a machine-generated voice.
Consequently, the name may be misp ronounced or sound strange at times.
