Special Character List
The following characters have
special characters beneath them:
Character Handwriting
Recognition
Character handwriting recognition is
offered as an alternative to using a
keyboard. This character input
method allows the drawing out of
characters instead of picking them
out from the keyboard. Character
handwriting recognition has two
main modes, Upper Case and
Mixed Case. The Upper Case mode
is used for Destination Entry while
Mixed Case is used for all other
character entry modes. This feature
is available by touching the globe
button from the keyboard screen.The Handwriting Recognition screen
is split into different zones:
.
Drawing Pad
. Prioritized Guess List
. Character Entry
. Drawing Pad: This is the area
to draw a character. Draw a
character in the display area.
When the first character is
complete, a representation of
that character can be seen, and
there is an audible response.
If the character is correct, the
next character can be started
immediately.
‐ To delete the last entered
character, draw a line from left
to right across the character
field.
‐ To create a space, draw a line
from right to left across the
character field.
. Prioritized Guess List: This
area displays a list of guesses
for the character drawn.
If character recognition displays
the incorrect character, look at this list and see if the desired
character is available to select.
Scroll up or down the list, then
highlight the desired character.
Selecting a character from the
list will replace the incorrect
character with the desired
character. The character is
displayed in the character entry
section of the screen.
. Character Entry: This is the
area across the top of the
screen. This section can look
different depending on which
feature is being used.
Option Settings
This section is an area on the right
side of the Character Recognition
screen. This section will only look
different if the characters displayed
on the screen are in upper case or
mixed case.
.
k: Select from the touch
screen. The draw speed setting
will adjust the speed of the
character recognition feature.
The settings are: Faster, Default,
and Slower.

.Audio Feedback: Touch to turn
Audio Feedback On or Off.
Audio feedback is an audible
response to an action that has
occurred while using the
Character Recognition.
. ABC/abc: Select from the touch
screen to view the available
character sets. Select a
character set to change. Multiple
character sets may not be
supported by some regions. This
button also displays the
sentence case of upper or lower
case characters that are
currently active in a mixed case
mode. If only one character set
is available for the desired
region, touching the character
recognition will only open and
close the character recognition
window.
If mixed case character mode is
supported, the last buttons of
character recognition will be
upper and lower case. One-Shot Search
Enter a full or partial Address,
Contact, or POI into the search bar
and the system will search and
display all of the matches.
The contacts that are searched
include both the connected phone’s
contacts list and the vehicle’s
contacts list.
Search Process
The process of prioritizing the
search is to help shorten the length
of time at finding the results. If there
is a 100% match found when a
search type is carried out, the
remaining searches abort.
The system conducts the search in
the following order:
1. Vehicle Contacts List
2. Connected Phone Contacts List
3. POIs
4. Addresses
The Contacts are done first because
the list will be relatively short and
can be done quickly. POIs are done next because the
amount of time it takes to search for
the average POI is consistent. The
less deviation during a search would
mean an average of less time taken.
The Addresses are last because the
standard deviation for an address
search is very large. Some address
searches are very quick, but others
may take very long. Because of this,
the address search would not be
conducted unless a good match
could not be found in either
Contacts or POIs.
Autocomplete
The autocomplete is preloaded with
all recent destinations and POI
category names. Previous POI
name searches are remembered.
If only one type of result is found,
the single type result screen is
shown. Within each group, they are
listed in confidence order. This
means the highest confidence result
will be at the top.
If multiple types of matches are
found, the result list with the highest
confidence match displays.

Address and Contact matches are
shown in full width list format. The
match results will display unique
icons for full addresses, streets,
intersections, cities, states/regions,
and countries.
POIs show in a split list format with
the map on the right displaying the
locations of the matches. The brand
icon or category icon will display for
the match results.
When a list displays, the results for
a particular type can be filtered by
touching the filter buttons along the
top of the screen. If there are no
particular results for a selected type,
a message is indicated in the list.
For example:
.For no addresses: “No
Addresses Found Within
. For no POIs: “No POIs Found
Within<75 km/50 mi/800 km/
500 mi>.” This distance is shown
depending on what radius is
completed and what current
units are selected. .
For no contacts: “No Contacts
Found.”
The system performs partial
searches on contacts, so typing a
first name or last name would find a
match. The entire contact name
does not need to be entered for it to
be found in a search.
Touching a contact listed on the
results list displays the standard
contact details view to select an
item, such as an address to start
routing, or a phone number to place
a call.
Address
. A destination can be searched
by typing out the address,
intersection, highway, or freeway
entrance ramps on the keyboard. This information is
typed and displayed in the
information field. Touch the
search icon to start the search.
For example:
City:
Crawford
Street: Main Rd
House #: 12334
. Whenever the keyboard view is
entered, the last text that was
typed, even if it was not
searched on, will display.
. A partial or complete address
can be typed in the search field.
If a partial address is typed, the
system attempts to use local
knowledge to fill in additional
information. For example, if no
city name or country are given,
the system assumes a search
for something in the current city
or a nearby city in the current
country. The system is also
capable of recognizing address
formats according to other
regions.

If a destination address or location
being entered is outside of the
country, the country abbreviation
must be added after the address.
Spelling Mistakes
The system is able to offer
alternatives if the searched term is
not found exactly. The system uses
the closest term it finds and
provides those results.
The system first searches the
entered term exactly. If no matches
are found, partial words are used.
Search in Process
Touch the Search button, and the
results screen displays with the
activity indicator. There is a
non-selectable List item in the list
that says“Searching” to indicate
that it is in process.
Once the results are found, the
correct list screen will display. No Results Found
If no results are found from an
entered search term, a pop-up
displays indicating there are no
results found. Touch the OK screen
button to return to the
keyboard view.
Results Display
If only a single match is found at the
end of a search, the list is not
shown but the Destination Details
view is shown. Touch Back from the
Destination Details view to go back
to the results list screen. If it was a
POI search, the Continue POI
Search button is available in case
that was not the desired POI.
Places of Interest (POI)
While at the Home Page, touch the
NAV screen button to display a view
of the map. Touch the
DESTINATION screen button to go
to the destination entry views.
1. Touch the POIs screen button
to display a list of POI
categories.
The first list item in every POI
list is a search function. For the
highest level of categories,
touch the Spell Name screen
button or select a category and
search within that selection.
2. Select a POI category to display subcategories.
3. If a selected subcategory has no results in the surrounding
area, the search is expanded
until a result is found.
4. If a high-level category is selected, such as restaurants,
the map zooms in to the region
near the vehicle’s position to
show the nearest matches.

When a list displays, it can be
filtered for a particular type by
touching the filter button along
the top of the screen. If there
are no particular results for a
selected filter type, it is
indicated in the list.
5. Pan or zoom the map using the finger gestures to minimize the
POI list and to interact with the
map. The icons that were
shown before continue to be
displayed and updated. The list
is also updated based on
where the map was panned or
zoomed. The search for POIs
is constrained to where the
map has been moved to.
6. If the search map is touched to recenter, the crosshairs are
shown to indicate the center of
the new search location. If a
POI icon is touched on while in
the full expanded map, a
callout for that location
displays. Touch the callout to
display the destination
details view. 7. Touch the map reset button to
return the map to automatic
zooming and searching. It is
recentered around the vehicle’s
position, the route, the
destination, or another location
that was specified for the
search. The map RESET
button is only displayed if the
map was manually adjusted.
If multiple types of matches are
found, the All list is shown with the
results sorted by confidence order
with the highest confidence result at
the top.
Using the Keyboard
The POI can be searched by
entering a POI name, category,
name and category, or phone
number on the keyboard. For example, enter the
information as:
POI Name:
Worldwide Food
POI Category: Restaurants
POI Name and Category:
Worldwide Food Restaurants
POI Phone Number: 0001222555
Additionally, a location may be
entered if the POI is not nearby.
This search will then be made
around the location that is given.
For example, enter the
information as:
POI Name and Location:
Worldwide Food Chicago IL
The POI keyboard search results
will display in the order in which
they were found.

Predefined POIs (My POIs)
In addition to the POIs already
stored in the infotainment system,
predefined POIs can be created.
While creating a predefined POI, the
GPS coordinates for longitude and
latitude of the POI’s location and a
descriptive name will need to be
entered.
After creating the predefined POIs,
they can be downloaded to the
infotainment system from a USB
stick.
Once downloaded, the POI data
becomes a selectable destination in
the My POIs menu.
Creating a Text File with
Information
Create a text file by using a simple
text editor software. Save this file
with a name and extension of .csv,
for example,
“TomsPOI.csv.”
Enter the POI information into the
text file in the following format:

.Longitude coordinate, Latitude
coordinate, “Name of POI,”
“Additional information,” “Phone
number.”
Example: 7.0350000,
50.6318040, “Michaels Home,”
“123 Maple Lane,”
“02379234567.”
. The GPS coordinates must be
expressed in decimal degrees
and can be taken from a
geographical map. The
additional information and phone
number strings are optional.
. The POI name and the
additional information string may
not exceed 60 characters.
. POI information for each
destination address must be
entered in a single separate line.
Storing the POI on a USB Drive
In the root directory of a USB drive,
create a folder name “myPOIs.”For
example, “F:\”is the root directory of
the USB drive. In the
“myPOIs” folder, store the text
file with your POIs, for example, “F:
\myPOIs\TomsPOIs.csv.”
Downloading the POI to the
Infotainment System
Connect the USB drive containing
the POI information to the USB port
of the infotainment system.
A message displays prompting
whether or not to download the POI
information from the USB stick. All
POIs found are saved even if they
are in multiple folders.
Subfolders can also be created to
organize the POIs into categories,
for example, “F:\myPOIs
\Restaurants\TomsPOIs.csv.”
If the message is dismissed or
ignored, no POI information is
downloaded. This prompt will not
reoccur for the current ignition cycle.
When the system is finished
downloading, a pop-up displays
asking to specify a category for the
new POIs, if desired. Importing and Overwriting
Categories
When POIs are found on a media
device, the date of the file is
examined and compared to the date
for the files already in the system.
If the file being downloaded is
newer than the one on the system,
that particular category of POIs is
overwritten. Any other POIs that had
previously been saved in other
categories are not affected.
Address Book Download
If an Address Book is found on the
connected USB device, the same
alert is used to indicate that
locations have been found and they
can be downloaded. If there is
already content in the vehicle
Contacts List, the system prompts if
the stored content should be
overwritten. Select Save to
overwrite the existing Contacts
information. Select Cancel to abort
the import of information.
