Troubleshooting
For more Information
(P193)
Why does the vehicle position icon on the map “lag” a
short distance behind my actual position, especially at
intersections?
This is normal. The navigation system is unaware of the
width of intersections. Large differences in vehicle position
can indicate a temporary loss of the GPS signal.
Why does the “time to destination” display sometimes
increase even though I am getting closer to my
destination?
The “time to destination” is based on your actual road
speed and traffic conditions to give you a better estimate
of arrival time.
Why does my clock frequently change the time forward
and backward by one hour?
The clock setting is automatically updated based on your
GPS location. If you normally drive between two time
zones, the clock may keep adjusting the time. You can
turn this feature off.
2Clock Adjustment
P. 55
How do I specify a destination when an entered city or
street could not be found?
Try entering the street first. Some cities are lumped in with
a major metro area. In rural “unverified” areas or new
subdivisions, streets may be missing or only partially
numbered.
How do I turn on the navigation system voice guidance?
1.Press the INFO button. Rotate i to select Set up and
press u. Check that Volume is not set to OFF.
2.Move y to select Other, rotate i to select Basic
Settings, and press u. Set Voice Recognition Tutor
to ON if you want the system to provide confirmations
and system prompts.
My battery was disconnected or went dead, and the
navigation system is asking for a code. Where do I find it?
In most cases, you do not need to enter a code. Simply
press and hold the VOL 9 (Volume/Power) button for two
seconds; the system should reactivate.

22System Setup
Voice Control SystemYour vehicle has a voice control system that allows hands-free operation of most of
the navigation system functions. You can also control the audio and climate control
system, and make and receive phone calls using Bluetooth® HandsFreeLink®.
The voice control system uses the d (Talk) and K (Back) buttons on the steering
wheel and a microphone near the map lights on the ceiling.
A “Voice Info” feature provides a tutorial that explains how to use the voice control
system. 2Voice Help
P. 5
Command InputIf the system does not understand a command or you wait too long to give a
command, the system asks you to repeat the command.
When you give a command, the system generally either repeats the command as a
confirmation or asks you for further information. If you do not wish to hear this
feedback, you can turn it off. However, listening to the feedback will help familiarise
you with the way the system expects commands to be phrased. 2Basic Settings
P. 26
If the system cannot perform a command or the command is not appropriate for the
screen you are on, the system beeps.
On character input screens, a list of possible characters is displayed if the system
does not recognize your command.
You can find out which voice commands are available for a particular screen using
the d Help command. The system will display and read the list of available
commands to you.
1d (Talk) Button
When you press the d (Talk) button, a helpful
prompt asks what you would like to do. Press
and release the d (Talk) button again to bypass
this prompt and give a command.1Command Input
