IntroductionManual OverviewThe manual is divided into the
following sections:
 Getting Started - A basic introduction that discusses the co ntrols and how to
communicate with the system.
 Entering a Destination - How to enter an address or locate a point of interest
(POI).
 Driving to Your Destination - An explanation of the map features,
guidance, and cautions.
 Information Features - Cellular Phone, Trip Computer, Calendar,
Calculator, Voice Command Help,
Map Legend, and Key to Zagat
Ratings.
 System Setup - How to set up and tailor the system for your personal
use and use the Address Book. The back of this manual contains:
 Map Coverage (page
112)
 Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs) (page 128)
 Troubleshooting Guide (page 135)
 Glossary of Terms (page 137)
 Voice Command List (page 140)
 Operation Specific to Alaska and Hawaii (page 126)
System OverviewYour 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

has been on.
Average Speed
Shows you the average speed in miles
per hour (mph) since the trip meter was
last reset.
Range
Shows the estimated distance you can
travel on the fuel remaining in the tank.
This distance is estimated from the
average fuel economy over the last
several miles, so it will vary with
changes in speed, traffic, etc.
NOTE:
 Information from the Trip Computer
will be displayed only when the
ignition is on.
 The “Instant Fuel” and “Average Fuel” may vary from actual fuel
consumed. These values are estimates
only.
 The “Range” is only an estimate. Always monitor your vehicle’s fuel
gauge to determine the appropriate
time to refuel.
CalendarThe Calendar option allows you to
enter events and be reminded of them in
the future. When you say or select

calendar with the current calendar day
highlighted.
Dates with an icon indicate there is a

knob, or select the day by voice. When
you move the Interface Dial up or
down, you can also scroll through the
calendar week by week. To change the
month, say “Next month” or “Previous
month,” or move the Interface Dial
right or left.
