The navigation system includes
navigation and audio functions.

your mind on the drive is important
for safe driving. The navigation
system has built-in features
intended to help with this by
disabling some features when
driving. A grayed-out function 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.
.Set up the audio by presetting
favorite stations, setting the
tone, and adjusting the
speakers.
.Set up the navigation features,
such as entering an address or a
preset destination.
.Set up phone numbers in
advance so they can be called
easily by pressing a single
button or a single voice
command for navigation systems
equipped with phone capability.
{WARNING
Taking your eyes off the road too
long or too often while using the
navigation system could cause a
crash and you or others could be
injured or killed. Focus your
attention on driving and limit
glances at the moving map on the
navigation screen. Use voice
guidance whenever possible.

the vehicle owner manual for more
information on driver distraction.
To use a portable audio player,
