System Overview
Your 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. NOTICE

System Setup
Correct Vehicle Position
The system relies on satellites for
positioning information. Buildings,
tunnels, and other objects can block or
reflect these signals, requiring the
system to use “dead reckoning” to
determine your location and direction.
This can sometimes lead to small errors
in positioning, such as showing you on
an adjacent street.
NOTE:
Using this function to adjust vehicle
position is not recommended. When the
system acquires a GPS signal, it will
automatically place the vehicle in the
correct location. If you choose to do this, follow these
steps:
1. Stop the vehicle.
2. Select
Adjust, and the system will
display a map adjustment screen.
3. Use the ZOOM buttons and the
joystick to move the location
arrowhead to the correct location.
Touch the arrow buttons on the
bottom of the screen to rotate the
direction arrows so the vehicle
position is pointin g in the correct
direction. NOTE:
If you continually have to do this, there
are either problems in the database or
GPS reception problems. See
Accessories Precautions
on page 5.
4. When you have finished, press the joystick or select Done to return to
the previous screen.
5. As you drive, the current road will be displayed at the bottom of the screen.

System Setup
Clock Settings
From the Setup screen (second), say or
select Clock Settings and the
following screen appears:
Clock Adjustment
When you select Clock Adjustment ,
the following screen appears: This screen allows you to set or adjust
the following:
• Auto Daylight Saving Time
(Default = On)
• Auto Time Zone by GPS (Default = On)
• DST (Daylight Saving Time) Selection
(change DST schedule)
• Time Adjustment (adjust your clock)
• Reset button (resets this screen’s
settings to factory defaults)
Auto Daylight Saving Time
Sets automatic daylight saving time On
or Off . If set to On , the clock will
automatically “spring ahead” or “fall
back” by one hour when a daylight
saving time change occurs. If you reside
in a state or area wh ere daylight saving
time is not used, then you may want to
turn this feature off. NOTE:
If you set Auto Daylight Saving Time to
On
, the daylight saving time function is
activated even in an area that does not
use daylight saving time.
The federal government mandated that
starting in 2007, daylight saving time
begins in March and ends in November
instead of the old schedule from April to
October. The schedule is subject to
review and possible cancellation in
2010-2011.
The schedules for the time changes are
stored in the software and can be
selected in the DST schedule
selection screen. Therefore, your clock
will change based on the daylight saving
time schedule.
NOTE:
The automatic clock setting feature
relies on a satellite signal. It will not
work in Hawaii and Alaska.

System Initialization
GPS Initialization
Depending on the length of time the
battery was disconnected, your system
may require GPS initialization. If it
does, the following screen appears:
If this procedure is not necessary, the
system proceeds directly to the
Disclaimer screen (see page 16).
During initialization, the system
searches for all available GPS satellites
and obtains their orbital information.
During this procedure, the vehicle
should be out in th e open with a clear
view of the sky. If the navigation system finds the
satellites properly, this box clears and
the
Disclaimer screen is shown. If
within 10 minutes the system fails to
locate a sufficient number of satellites to
locate your position, the following
screen appears:
If the system is still unable to acquire a
signal, follow the instructions on the
screen, or contact you r local dealer for
assistance.
NOTE:
The average acquiring time is less than
10 minutes, but it can take as long as 45
minutes.
Map Matching
This part of the initialization matches
the GPS coordinates found above with a
road on the map screen. To perform this
part of the procedure, ensure that the
navigation system is displaying a map,
and drive the vehicle on a mapped road
(a road shown on the map screen). Do
not enter a destina tion at this time.
When the name of the current road you
are driving on appears at the bottom of
the screen, the entire procedure is
complete. Your system is now ready to
use.
The navigation system lost power and is acquiring its
location from the GPS satellites. This usually takes
less than 10 minutes.
* Start the engine.
* Park the vehicle in an open area away from trees,
power lines, and tall buildings.
* Remove loose articles, cell phones, or electrical
accessories located near the GPS antenna.
* If this screen is displayed repeatedly when starting
the vehicle, see your dealer.
Something is interfering with the system’s ability to
acquire its location. Check the following:
* The vehicle must be in an open area with a clear
view of the sky.
* Remove sources of GPS interference like metallic
window tint above antenna, or electrical items
near antenna (see owner's manual for details).
* Check GPS antenna cable connection.
* Restart the engine and repeat the GPS acquire
procedure. If the problem persists, see your dealer.

System Limitations
Although your navigation system is one
of the most highly sophisticated pieces
of equipment you will find in a modern
automobile, you may find during its use
that it has certain limitations.
The system uses GPS signals to aid in
determining its current location. The
GPS is operated by the U.S.
Department of Defense. For security
reasons, there are certain inaccuracies
built into the GPS that the navigation
system must constantly compensate for.
This can cause occasional positioning
errors of up to several hundred feet.
For example, in urban areas where
streets are close together, this could
cause the system to show that you are
traveling on a street that parallels the
street you are actually on. The system
will, under most circumstances, correct
itself while you drive. Depending on your current view of the
sky and the position of the satellites, the
elevation may be shown incorrectly.
You may also notice some delay of the
vehicle position icon at intersections;
this is normal.
GPS Reception Issues
The signals received from the GPS
satellites are extremely weak (less than
a millionth of the strength of a local FM
station) and requir
e an unobstructed
view of the sky. The signal can easily be
interrupted or interfered with by the
following:
• Aftermarket metallic window tint above or to the sides of the GPS
antenna (located under the
dashboard)
• Cell phones, PDAs, or other electronic devices docked in a cradle
or lying loose on the dashboard
• Radar detectors mounted on the dashboard
• Remote starters, or “hidden” vehicle tracking systems mounted near the
navigation unit • Other aftermarket audio electronic
devices mounted near the navigation
unit
• Trees, tall buildings, freeway overpasses, tunnels, or overhead
electrical power wires
Although the system will direct you to
your desired destination, it may not
always generate what you consider to be
the most direct rout e. Try changing the
method of routing. See Changing the
Routing Method on page 47. You may
also have Unverified Area Routing set
to OFF. See Unverified Area Routing on
page 85.
Additionally, the mapping database
contains verified and unverified maps.
See Map Overview on page 6. A
Disclaimer screen will warn you if your
route includes unverified streets.
Unverified streets may be missing from
the map, in the wrong location, or have
an incorrect name or address range.
Exercise addition al caution when
driving in these unverified areas.

Coverage Areas
Operation in Alaska and
Hawaii
Certain functions that rely on a satellite
signal will not work in Alaska and
Hawaii. These functions include but are
not limited to XM radio, automatic
clock updates, and time zone
adjustments.
Alaska
If the vehicle was purchased in the
lower 48 states and driven to Alaska, the
system cannot display maps. The
message “Vehicle is out of the
database...” will be displayed.
Hawaii
This section describes the differences in
navigation system operation for vehicles
delivered in Hawaii.
XM Radio
Navigation-equipped vehicles delivered
to Hawaii are equipped with XM
hardware, but XM broadcasting is not
available; therefore sections of the
manual that mention XM audio do not
apply. Vehicles originally delivered to
the U.S. mainland and shipped to Hawaii
also have XM, but will not function
because the XM satellites (aimed toward
the U.S. mainland) are too far away to
obtain reception.
Map Coverage
All roads displayed on the Hawaii map
screens are detailed coverage roads.
Text related to “unverified” roads or
areas are not applicable. The following
topics do not apply in Hawaii:
• Unverified road descriptions (see page 6 and 85).
• Cautions and pop-up windows related to unverified roads (see page 63). • Setup entries that relate to turning on
or off unverified routing (see
page 86).
• When zooming in and out, there is no 350-mile scale for Hawaii.
Other Map Issues
• See the coverage section for a list of islands with coverage (see page 109).
• Freeway Exit information does not exist in Hawaii, so the “Freeway Exit
Info” icon is not shown on the icon
bar.

128Navigation System
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 pages 61 and 92.
How can I get rid of the white dots (“breadcrumbs”) from my
screen? Go to “Vehicle” in the
Setup screen (second), and set Off-road Tracking
to Off , then return to the map. See page 92.
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 page 89.
When I arrive at my destination, the bull’s-eye is shown at a
different location on the street. Why? The system calculates the bull’s-eye
location based on the street address
range allocated for that street. See Destination Icon on page 56 for an
example.
My elevation (shown when I t ouch the vehicle position icon)
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 Limitations on page 100.
My elevation is missing on the “current pos ition” screen.
Why? If the GPS antenna cannot receive at least four satellites, the elevation is not
displayed. Try moving the vehicle into an open area. If the elevation is zero
or below sea level, the elev
ation is also not displayed.
