Quick Reference GuideTroubleshootingFor more Information (P99)
Why does the vehicle position icon on the map appear
slightly off my actu al position, especially at intersections?
This is normal. The navigation system is unaware of the
width of intersections. Large di fferences 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?
●Adjust the volume using the volume knob during the
voice guidance.
●Press the button.
Select Settings > System > System Vol
umes >
System Volumes .
Turn up volume level of Navi
gation On Guidance if it
is low.
How do I specify a destination when an entered city or
street could not be found?
Try selecting the destinat ion directly from the map.

System Setup
Voice Control System
Your vehicle has a voice control system that allows hands-free operation of the
navigation system functions.
The voice control system uses the and buttons on the steering wheel and a
microphone near the map lights on the ceiling.
For details of the button, button and microphone position, see the Owner's
Manual.

To achieve optimum voice recognition wh en using the navigation voice control
system:
• Make sure the correct screen is displa yed
for the voice command that you are
using. The system recogniz es only certain commands.
Available navigation commands:

• Close the windows and moonroof.
• Adjust the dashboard and side vents so air does not blow onto the microphone
on
the ceiling.
• Speak in a clear, natural speaking voice without pausing between words.
• Reduce any background noise if possible. The
system may misinterpret your
command if more than one person is speaking at the same time.
