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.
(Error Code).”
See your dealer if this
message appears.
.The SD card is not paired
with the existing system:
“This SD card is not valid in
this vehicle for navigation.
See Owner’s Manual for
more detail or visit your
dealer. (Error Code).”
.The SD card has been
removed from the slot: “SD
card has been removed.
(Error Code).”
Make sure the SD card is in
the slot. If it was removed
and inserted and you still
receive an error code, see
your dealer.
