requires a map database to
run. It is stored on an SD card
that is connected to the
infotainment system. If the
map database is not available,
a missing SD card error
message will be displayed.
SD Card Error Messages
The SD card only works for
one unique 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.
(Error Code).”
See your dealer if this
message appears.
.The SD card is not paired
with the existing system:

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. Touch Confirm to resume

Maintenance
Passenger
Compartment Air
Filter
The filter reduces dust, pollen,
and other airborne irritants
from outside air that is pulled
into the vehicle. The filtershould be replaced as part of
routine scheduled
maintenance. See
Maintenance Schedule
0454.
See your dealer regarding
replacement of the filter.
Service
All vehicles have a label
underhood that identifies the
refrigerant used in the vehicle.
The refrigerant system should
only be serviced by trained
and certified technicians. The
air conditioning evaporator
should never be repaired or
replaced by one from a
salvage vehicle. It should only
be replaced by a new
evaporator to ensure proper
and safe operation.
During service, all refrigerants
should be reclaimed with
proper equipment. Venting
refrigerants directly to the
atmosphere is harmful to the
environment and may also
create unsafe conditions based on inhalation,
combustion, frostbite, or other
health-based concerns.
The air conditioning system
requires periodic maintenance.
