vehicle. The SD card must pass
authentication verification to be used for
that specific vehicle. If the SD card has a
switch that can be set to read-only mode,
ensure that it is in the upward position and
not in read-only. Potential error scenarios and messages
include:
.The SD card has initialized for the first
time:
“Once initialized, this SD card can
only be used for navigation in this
vehicle.”
.The SD card is not working properly: “SD
card is not functioning properly.

Global Positioning System (GPS)
If equipped, the position of the vehicle is
determined by using satellite signals, various
vehicle signals, and map data.
At times, other interference such as the
satellite condition, road configuration,
condition of the vehicle, and/or other
circumstances can affect the navigation
system's ability to determine the accurate
position of the vehicle.
The GPS shows the current position of the
vehicle using signals sent by GPS satellites.
When the vehicle is not receiving signals
from the satellites, a symbol appears on the
map screen.
This system might not be available or
interference can occur if any of the
following are true:
.Signals are obstructed by tall buildings,
trees, large trucks, or a tunnel.
.Satellites are being repaired or improved.For more information if the GPS is not
functioning properly, see
Problems with
Route Guidance 0147 and
If the System Needs Service 0148.
Vehicle Positioning
At times, the position of the vehicle on the
map could be inaccurate due to one or more
of the following reasons:
.The road system has changed.
.The vehicle is driving on slippery road
surfaces such as sand, gravel, or snow.
.The vehicle is traveling on winding roads
or long, straight roads.
.The vehicle is approaching a tall building
or a large vehicle.
.The surface streets run parallel to a
freeway.
.The vehicle has been transferred by a
vehicle carrier or a ferry.
.The current position calibration is set
incorrectly.
.The vehicle is traveling at high speed.
.The vehicle changes directions more than
once, or the vehicle is turning on a turn
table in a parking lot.
.The vehicle is entering and/or exiting a
parking lot, garage, or a lot with a roof.
.The GPS signal is not received.
.A roof carrier is installed on the vehicle.
.Tire chains have been installed.
.The tires are replaced or worn.
.The tire pressure for the tires is incorrect.
.This is the first navigation use after the
map data is updated.
.The 12-volt battery has been disconnected
for several days.
.The vehicle is driving in heavy traffic
where driving is at low speeds, and the
vehicle is stopped and started repeatedly.
Problems with Route Guidance

under one or more of the following
conditions:
.The turn was not made on the road
indicated.
.Route guidance might not be available
when using automatic rerouting for the
next right or left turn.

148 Infotainment System
.It could take a long time to operate
automatic rerouting during high-speed
driving.
.Automatic rerouting might display a route
returning to the set waypoint if heading
for a destination without passing through
a set waypoint.
.The route prohibits the entry of a vehicle
due to a regulation by time or season or
any other regulation which may be given.
.Some routes might not be searched.
.The route to the destination might not be
shown if there are new roads, if roads
have recently changed, or if certain roads
are not listed in the map data. SeeMaps
0 141.
To recalibrate the vehicle's position on the
map, park with the vehicle running for two
to five minutes, until the vehicle position
updates. Make sure the vehicle is parked in
a location that is safe and has a clear view
of the sky and away from large
obstructions.
If the System Needs Service
If the navigation system needs service, see
your dealer.
Map Data Updates
The map data in the vehicle is the most
up-to-date information available when the
vehicle was produced. The map data is
updated periodically, provided that the map
information has changed.
For questions about the operation of the
navigation system or the update process,
see your dealer.
Database Coverage Explanations
Coverage areas vary with respect to the
level of map detail available for any given
area. Some areas feature greater levels of
detail than others. If this happens, it does
not mean there is a problem with the
system. As the map data is updated, more
detail can become available for areas that
previously had limited detail. See Map Data
Updates 0148.
Voice Recognition
If equipped, voice recognition allows for
hands-free operation within the navigation,
audio, phone, and weather applications. This feature can be started by pressing either
g
on the steering wheel or touchinggon the
infotainment display.
However, not all features within these areas
are supported by voice commands.
Generally, only complex tasks that require
multiple manual interactions to complete
are supported by voice commands.
For example, tasks that take more than one
or two touches such as selecting a song or
artist to play from a media device would be
supported by voice commands. Other tasks,
like adjusting the volume or seeking up or
down are audio features that are easily
performed by pressing one or two controls
are not supported by voice commands.
In general there are flexible ways to speak
commands for completing the tasks. Most of
them, except destination entry and voice
keypad, can be completed in a single
command. If the task takes more than one
command to complete, the first command
should be to indicate the kind of task to be
performed, like “Navigation Destination
Entry.” The system replies with prompts
that lead you through a dialog to enter the
necessary information. For example, if a
destination for route guidance is needed,
say “Navigation” or“Destination Entry.”
