7-2 Infotainment System
Introduction Infotainment Read this manual thoroughly to
become familiar with how the
navigation system operates.
The navigation system includes
navigation and audio functions.
Keeping your eyes on the road
and your mind on the drive is
important for safe driving. The
navigation system has built-in
features intended to help keep
your eyes on the road and mind on
the drive. A few features may be
disabled while driving. Note that
these functions will be grayed-out.
A grayed-out function indicates it is
not available when the vehicle is
moving. All functions are available when the
vehicle is parked. Do the following
before driving: .
Become familiar with the
navigation system operation,
buttons on the faceplate, and
touch-sensitive screen buttons
of the navigation system. .
Set up the audio by presetting
favorite stations, setting the
tone, and adjusting the
speakers. .
Set up the navigation features
before beginning driving, such
as entering an address or a
preset destination. .
Set up your phone numbers
in advance so they can be
called easily with the press
of a single button or a single
voice command (for navigation
systems equipped with phone
capability). { WARNINGTaking your eyes off the road too
long or too often while using the
navigation system could cause a
crash resulting in injury or death
to you or others. Focus your
attention on driving.
{ WARNINGAvoid looking too long or too
often at the moving map on the
navigation screen. This could
cause a crash and you or others
can be injured or killed. Use the
turn-by-turn voice guidance
directions whenever possible.

Infotainment System 7-3Use the navigation system to: .
Plan a route. .
Select a destination using
various methods and choices. .
Follow turn-by-turn route and
map guidance with voice
prompts, only if permitted by
traffic laws, controls, and
conditions.
Always be alert and obey traffic
and roadway laws and instructions,
regardless of the guidance from
the navigation system. Because
the navigation system uses street
map information that does not
include all traffic restrictions or
the latest road changes, it may
suggest using a road that is now
closed for construction or a turn
that is prohibited by signs at the
intersection. Because the system
uses limited information, you must
always evaluate whether following
the system's directions is safe and
legal for the current conditions. Theft-Deterrent Feature TheftLock ®
is designed to
discourage theft of the vehicle's
radio by learning a portion of the
Vehicle Identification Number (VIN).
The radio does not operate if it is
stolen or moved to a different
vehicle.
Overview When the navigation system is
turned on, a screen may appear
with the information below, and you
must read and acknowledge the
information it contains.
After you acknowledge the start
up information you will be able to
access the NAV (navigation) and
DEST (destination) functions. Once
accessed, you can enter or delete
information in the navigation system
or access other functions. See
instructions later in this section. Every fifty times the vehicle is
started and the navigation
system is turned on, the Caution
screen appears. After reading the
caution, select OK to load the map
information. If OK is not selected, all
control buttons except for NAV and
DEST can be accessed. You can
also press the NAV control button to
have this Caution screen appear.
When getting started, set the
navigation system to your
preference or delete information
you may have entered using
various options.
