Clock Adjustment
From the Setup screen (second), say or 
select  Clock Adjustment  and the 
following screen appears:
This screen allows y ou 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 new 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 correctly in  Hawaii and Alaska.

Auto Time Zone by GPS
Sets automatic time zone selection by 
GPS to On or Off . If you are driving 
across the country and passing through 
time zones, then this feature will 
automatically set the time to the time 
zone you are traveling through. 
However, if you live and work in two 
different time zones, you may want to 
turn this feature off.
NOTE:
When driving near a time zone 
boundary, the displayed time zone may 
fluctuate between the two zone times.
Daylight Saving Time (DST) 
Selection (Change DST 
Schedule)
This option lets you select the schedule 
(April-October  or March-
November ) when daylight saving time 
will automatically occur in your 
navigation system. The  system default is 
the  March-November  schedule as 
mandated by the U.S. government. 
During 2010-2011, it is possible that 
this new change will  be canceled by the 
government and returned back to the 
previous “April-October” schedule. If 
so, simply change the schedule in this 
setting back to the “April-October” 
schedule.
Time Adjustment
Adjusts the current time in hours and 
minutes. You can reset the adjustment 
by selecting  Reset. Selecting  Done

System Initialization
System Initialization
If for any reason you lose power to the 
navigation system (e.g., the battery was 
disconnected), the navigation system 
will require initialization. Once 
completed, your system will be ready to 
use.
This initialization requires the 
following:
• Entry of the 4-digit anti-theft security  code.
• GPS initialization (may not be needed  depending on the length of time the 
system was without power).
• Map matching to align the GPS  coordinates to a place on the map 
(displays current street at the bottom 
of the map).
Entering the Security Code
If the battery goes dead or is 
disconnected for any reason, you will 
have to enter a secur ity code for both the 
audio system and the navigation system 
before you can use it again.
When you purchased the vehicle, you 
should have received two cards 
containing the audio and navigation 
system’s security codes and serial 
numbers. Keep these cards in a safe 
place in case you need  the codes. If you 
lose the cards, you must obtain the 
security codes from your dealer. Enter the four-digit security code, then 
select 
Done. If you make a mistake, the 
system will display “incorrect PIN.” Re-
enter your 4-digit security code. If you 
have entered it corr ectly, the display 
changes to the  Disclaimer screen. You 
have 10 chances to enter the correct 
code. If all 10 are incorrect, turn the 
ignition to OFF, then back to ON (II) to 
have 10 more chances to enter the 
correct code.
Follow the instructions in the vehicle 
Owner’s manual to enter the 5-digit 
audio code. The navigation voice will 
not operate if the audio code is not 
entered.
NOTE:
The anti-theft security  code is unrelated 
to your optional navigation system PIN 
(for Personal Address Book or Home 
Address).

Database Limitations
You will find that some points of 
interest (POI) may be missing when you 
search the database. This can be caused 
if at the time the database was gathered, 
the name was misspelled, the place was 
improperly categorized, or the POI 
change is not yet in the database. This 
means you may not find places listed 
that you know exist. This is also true for 
police agencies and hospitals. In 
outlying areas, facilities listed may not 
be the closest. Always check with local 
information sources if you need law 
enforcement or hospital services.
Every effort has been made to verify 
that the system’s database was accurate 
at the time it was created. However, 
businesses do close or relocate, and new 
businesses start in the old locations. For 
this reason, you may occasionally find 
inaccurate information when you select 
and drive to a point of interest (for 
example, a restaurant is now a jewelry 
store). The number of these inaccuracies 
increases the longer you go without an 
update. The digitized map database reflects 
conditions as they existed at various 
points in time before production. 
Accordingly, your
 DVD may contain 
inaccurate or incomplete data or 
information due to the passage of time, 
road construction, changing conditions, 
or other causes.
Due to ongoing software and database 
improvements, navigation disc versions 
may change in the middle of a 
production year.  The version shipped 
with your vehicle was the most recent 
available at the time of production and 
is considered standard equipment for 
that vehicle.  There is no free program to 
retrofit early production vehicles with 
the latest disc. For DVD ordering 
information, see page 108. In addition, this database does not 
include, analyze, proc
ess, consider, or 
reflect any of the following categories 
of information:
• Neighborhood quality or safety
• Population density
• Availability or proximity of law  enforcement
• Emergency, rescue, medical, or other  assistance
• Construction work, zones, or hazards
• Road and lane closures
• Legal restrictions (such as vehicular  type, weight, load, height, and speed 
restrictions)
• Road slope or grade
• Bridge height, width, weight, or other  limits
• Road traffic, safety, or conditions
• Weather conditions
• Special events
• Pavement characteristics or conditions
