Guidance, Routing
Problem
Solution
The navigation system does not route me the same
way I would go or the same way as other mapping
systems.
The navigation system attempts to generate the optimal route. You can change the
route preferences used when calculating a route. 2Route Preference
P. 54
The navigation system wants to route me around
potential traffic problems. How do I stop these pop-up
messages?
Press the SETTINGS button. Select Navi Settings > Routing , and set Traffic
Rerouting to Off . 2Traffic Rerouting
P. 58
The street I’m on is not shown on the map screen.
The mapping database is constantly undergoing revision. You can access the most
recent information on the internet. 2Map Coverage
P. 313
The vehicle position icon is not following the road and
the “GPS icon” text in th e upper left hand corner of
the screen is white or missing.
• Check that the GPS antenna (located in the dashboard) is not blocked. For best reception, remove items from the dashboard, such as radar detectors, cell phones,
or loose articles.
• Metallic tinting or other aftermarket devi ces can interfere with the GPS reception.
Please consult a dealer. 2 GPS System
P. 310
The blue highlighted route and voice guidance
stopped or turned into a blue/pink line before I got to
my destination.
Your route has entered an unverified area. 2Unverified Routing
P. 56
How do I stop the map from rotating as I drive along?
Press the SETTINGS button. Select Navi Settings > Map > View > North-Up , or say
d “Display north-up” to change the map orientation.
The “time to destination” display sometimes increases
even though I am getting closer to my destination.
If your speed reduces due to slower traffic, the navigation system updates the “time to
destination” based on your actual road speed to give you a better estimate of arrival
time.
The vehicle position icon on the map “lags” a short
distance behind, especially when I arrive at an
intersection.
This is normal. The navigation system is un aware of the width of intersections. Large
differences in vehicle position can indicate a temporary loss of the GPS signal. 2 GPS System

310Reference Information
System LimitationsGPS SystemThe signals received from the GPS satellites
are extremely weak (less than a millionth
of the strength of a local FM station) and
require an unobstructed view of the sky.
The GPS antenna is located in the
dashboard. The signal reception can easily
be interrupted or interfered with by the
following:
• Metallic window tint on the front or side
windows
• Cell phones, PDAs, or other electronic
devices docked in a cradle or lying loose
on the dashboard
• Remote starters or “hidden” vehicle
tracking systems mounted near the
navigation unit
• Audio electronic devices mounted near
the navigation unit
• Trees, tall buildings, freeway overpasses,
tunnels, or overhead electrical power
wires
The GPS is operated by the U.S.
Department of Defense. For security
reasons, there are certain inaccuracies built
into the GPS for wh ich the navigation
system must constantly compensate. This can cause occasional positioning errors of
up to several hundred feet.
Address CalculationThe destination icon shows only the
approximate location of a destination
address. This occurs if the number of
possible addresses is different from the
number of actual addresses on a block. For
example, the address 1425 on a 1400
block with 100 possible addresses
(because it is followed by the 1500 block)
will be shown a quarter of the way down
the block by the system. If there are only
25 actual addresses
on the block, the
actual location of address 1425 would be
at the end of the block.
DatabaseThe digitized map database reflects
conditions as they existed at various points
in time before production. Accordingly,
your database may contain inaccurate or
incomplete data or information due to the
passage of time, road construction,
changing conditions, or other causes.
For example, some places/landmarks may
be missing when you search the database
because the name was misspelled, the
place was improperly categorized, or a
place/landmark is not yet in the database.
This is also true for police stations,
hospitals, and other public institutions. Do
not rely on the navigation system if you
need law enforcement or hospital services.
Always check with local information
sources.
