PREMIUM AUDIO SYST EM OWN ER’S MANUAL
This manual explains the operation of the Premium Audio system. Please read
this manual carefully to ensure proper use.
The screen shots in this document and the actual screens of the Premium Audio
system may differ depending on whether the functions and/or a contract existed
and the map data available at the time of producing this document.
Please be aware that the content of th is manual may be different from the
navigation /multimedia system in some cases, such as wh en the sy stem’s
software is up dated.
N AVIG ATION SYSTEM
The Navigation System is o ne of the most technologically advanced vehi cle
ac ces sories ever develo ped. The system receives satellite sig nals from the
Global Positioning System (GPS) operated by the U.S. Department of Defense.
Using these signals and other vehicle sensors, the system indicates your
present position and assists in locating a desired destination.
The navigation system is designed to select efficient routes from your present
sta rting location to your destination. The system is also designed to direct you
to a destination that is unfamiliar to you in an efficient manne r. The system is
devel oped by “Harman International” us ing “HERE” maps. The calculated
routes may not be the sho rtest nor the least traffic congested. Your own
personal local knowledge or “short cut” may at times be faster than the
calculated routes.
The navigation system’s database i nc
ludes Point of Interest (POI) categories to
allow you to easily select destinations such as restaurants, hotels and others . If
a destination is not in the database, you can enter the street address or a
major intersection c lose to it and the sys tem will guide you there.
The system will provide both a visual map and audio instructions. The audio
in structions will announce the distance remaining and the direction to turn in
approaching an
intersection. These voice instructions will help you keep your
eyes on the road and are tim ed to provide enough time to allow you to
maneuver, ch ange lanes or slow down.
Please be aware th at all current vehicle navigation systems have certain
limit atio ns that may affect their ability to perform properly. The accuracy of the
vehi cle’s pos ition depends on the satellite condition, road co nfiguration,
vehicle condi tion or other circumstances. F or more information on the
limitations of the system, refer to page 156.

7. NAVIGATION SYSTEM INFORMATION
This navigation system calculates the
cu rrent vehicle position using satellite
s ignals, various vehicle signals, map
data, etc. However, an accurate
positi on may not be shown depending
on satellite condition, road
configuration, vehicle condition or
other circumstances.
The Gl obal Pos iti onin g System (GPS)
deve loped and op erated by the U.S.
Departme nt o f D efense prov ides an
a ccurate current vehicle pos ition, normal ly
using 4 or more sate llites, and in some
case 3 satellites. The GPS system has a
certain level of inaccuracy. While the
navi gation system w ill compe nsate for this
most of th e time, occasion al po sitioning
errors of up to
1 00 m (300 feet) can and shou ld be
ex pe cted. Gen erally, p osit ion errors w ill
b e c orrected w ith in a few seconds.
The GPS signal may be physic ally
ob structed, l ead ing to inaccura te veh icle
posi tion on t he map d isplay. Tunne ls,
ta ll buil dings, trucks, or even the
p lacement of obje cts on the instrume nt
pan el may obstruct the GPS signals.
Th e GPS satel lites may not send sign als
du e to r epairs or improvemen ts be ing
ma de to them.
Even when the navigation system is
rece iving clear GPS si gnals, the v ehicle
po sition ma y not be shown accurately or
i na ppr opri ate route guidance may occur in
som e cases.
NOTICE
The ins tallat ion of wi ndow tint ing may
obstr uct the GPS s ignals . Mos t window

• Whe n driv ing wi thout setting the cu rrent
