Quick Reference GuideTroubleshootingFor more Information (P125)
Why does the vehicle position icon on the map appear
slightly off 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 “Arrival time” display sometimes increase
even though I am getting closer to my destination?
The “Arrival time” is based on the speed limit on each
road. Depending on the traffic conditions, the “Arrival
time” may be calculated to be earlier or later.
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 are driving near a time zone border,
the automatic update likely is the reason.
How do I turn on the navigation system voice guidance?
1.Press the (Home) icon.
Select Settings > System > Sound/Beep tab.
Turn up Guidance Volume, if guidance volume is low.
2.Select and then press the (Back) icon. Select
Settings > Navigation and enable Voice Prompts.
For more details, see the Owner’s Manual.
How do I specify a destination when an entered city or
street could not be found?
Try selecting the destination directly from the map.

Traffic Information
When you set the traffic feature, the system examines traffic conditions and
optimizes the route for the shortest time. If a severe traffic delay occurs while you
are navigating, the system searches for a faster route. If it finds one, the system will
prompt you and you can choose to accept the new route.
The traffic icon changes color to indicate the severity of traffic conditions on your
route or on the road you are currently traveling. The system may route you through
a traffic delay if a better alternative route does not exist. The delay time is added into
your estimated time of arrival automatically.
