Read this manual thoroughly to
become familiar with how the
navigation system operates.
The navigation system includes
navigation and audio functions.
Keeping your eyes on the road and
your mind on the drive is important
for safe driving. The navigation
system has built-in features
intended to help with this by
disabling some features when
driving. A grayed-out function is not
available when the vehicle is
moving.
All functions are available when the
vehicle is parked. Do the following
before driving:
.
Become familiar with the
navigation system operation,
buttons on the faceplate, and
touch-sensitive screen buttons.
.
Set up the audio by presetting
favorite stations, setting the
tone, and adjusting the
speakers.
.
Set up the navigation features,
such as entering an address or a
preset destination.
.
Set up phone numbers in
advance so they can be called
easily by pressing a single
button or a single voice
command for navigation systems
equipped with phone capability.
WARNING
{
Taking your eyes off the road too
long or too often while using the
navigation system could cause a
crash and you or others could be
injured or killed. Focus your
attention on driving and limit
glances at the moving map on the
navigation screen. Use voice
guidance whenever possible.
Select a destination using
various methods and choices.
.
Follow turn-by-turn route and
map guidance with voice
prompts, only if permitted by
traffic laws, controls, and
conditions.
.
Receive RDS broadcast
announcements.
Always be alert and obey traffic and
roadway laws and instructions,
regardless of the guidance from the
navigation system. Because the
navigation system uses street map
information that does not include all
traffic restrictions or the latest road
changes, it may suggest using a
road that is now closed for
construction or a turn that is
prohibited by signs at the
intersection. Always evaluate
whether following the system's
directions is safe and legal for the
current conditions.
When the navigation system is
turned on, a screen may appear
with information that must be read
and acknowledged before accessing
some navigation features.
After acknowledging the start up
information, the NAV (Navigation)
and DEST (Destination) functions
are accessible. Information can now
be entered or deleted, and other
functions accessed. See
instructions later in this section.
Every 50 times the vehicle is started
and the navigation system is turned
on, the Caution screen appears.
After reading the caution, select OK
to load the map DVD information.
If OK is not selected, all buttons
except for NAV (Navigation) and
DEST (Destination) can be
accessed.
When getting started, set your
preferences or delete information in
the navigation system using various
options.
To change the language of the
navigation screens, see “DIC
Vehicle Customization” in the Index
of the vehicle owner manual.
English or Metric Units
To change the navigation screens
from English or metric, see “DIC
Operation and Displays” in the
Index of the vehicle owner manual.
Deleting Personal Information
This navigation system can record
and store destinations and personal
information such as names and
addresses. When disposing of the
vehicle, you may want to delete
this information. See “Address
Book — Editing and Deleting
Entries” and “Previous

of eight folders.
.
Create a folder structure that
makes it easy to find songs
while driving. Each folder or
album should contain 18 songs
or less.
.
It is recommended that there is a
maximum of 1024 files on a disc.
.
The files can be recorded on a
CD-R or CD-RW with a
maximum capacity of 700 MB.
Root Directory
The root directory is treated as a
folder. If the root directory has
compressed audio files, the
directory displays as DISC. All files
contained directly under the root
directory are accessed prior to any
root directory folders. However,
playlists can always be accessed
before root folders or files.
Empty Directory or Folder
If a root directory or a folder exists
somewhere in the file structure that
contains only folders/subfolders and
no compressed files directly
beneath them, the player advances
to the next folder in the file structure
that contains compressed audio
files and the empty folder will not be
displayed or numbered.
When the CD contains only
compressed files, the files are
located under the root folder. The
next and previous folder functions
have no function on a CD that was
recorded without folders or playlists.
When displaying the name of the
folder the radio displays Disc.
When the CD contains only playlists
and compressed audio files, but no
folders, all files are located under
the root folder. The left and right
arrow buttons search playlists (Px)
first and then goes to the root folder.
When the radio displays the name
of the folder the radio
displays DISC.

of the screen but plays all supported
file formats in the order in which
they were recorded to the CD.
Background Recording
A CD can be copied and then

while listening to another source
such as AM, FM, HDD, or AUX. The
quality of the listening experience
should be the same whether
recording in the background or not,
and the speed of the recording
process does not take any longer
than normal.
Timeshift cannot be activated during

by either burning it to a CD or
recording it to a USB storage
device.
The audio book playback requires
activation of the vehicle as a player
for downloaded content. The radio
system activates the audio-book
system when information is found
on either a CD inserted into the CD
player or if a USB storage device is
connected. Make sure the activation
file is copied onto a CD or a USB
storage device so that the
downloaded media is supported.
In the process of activation, the
Vehicle Identification Number (VIN)
number is required in order to
activate your vehicle.
Auxiliary Devices
The navigation system has an
auxiliary input jack located in the
center console. This is not an audio
output; do not plug the headphone
set into the front auxiliary input jack.
You can however, connect an
external audio device such as an
iPod, laptop computer, MP3 player,
CD changer, or cassette tape
player, etc. to the auxiliary input jack
for use as another source for audio
listening.
Drivers are encouraged to set up
any auxiliary device while the
vehicle is in P (Park). See
“Defensive Driving” in the Index of
the vehicle owner manual for more
information on driver distraction.
To use a portable audio player,
connect a 3.5 mm (1/8 in) cable to
the auxiliary input jack. When a
device is connected, the system
detects and automatically begins
playing audio from the device over
the vehicle's speakers.

USB Media Recording
A USB Mass Storage device such
as a “pen drive” or a portable USB
hard drive can be connected to the
USB port to record media contents,
such as compressed audio files
from the USB storage device onto
the HDD. The USB port is located in
the center console bin, between the
Accessory Power Outlet (APO)
socket and the auxiliary input jack.
In addition to recording the content
from the USB storage device,
content can be played back directly
from the USB device.
USB Background Recording
If the content of a USB device is
chosen to be copied, these media
files are copied to the hard drive.
The recording process occurs in the
background and does not affect
playback from any source, including
the USB device itself. The quality of
the listening experience should be
the same whether recording in the
background or not, and the speed of
the recording process does not take
any longer than normal.

the background recording function.
Using the Radio Controls to
Connect and Control
Your iPod
An iPod can be controlled using the
radio buttons and knobs and display
your iPod song information on the
radio’s display. To connect and
control an iPod using the radio
controls, the vehicle must have a
USB port. If it does, it is located in
the center console bin. A special
iPod connection cable is needed
that came with the vehicle, from
your dealer. See your dealer for
more information.
*For proper operation, make sure
the iPod has the latest firmware
from Apple
®
. The iPod firmware can
be updated using the latest iTunes
application. See www.apple.com/
itunes.
To connect and control the iPod,
connect one end of the specially

connector. Connect the other end to
both the USB port and the auxiliary
input jack. The USB port and the
auxiliary input jack are located in
the center console bin. The iPod
music displays on the radio’s
display and begins playing through
the vehicle's radio system.
A standard iPod USB cable, like the
one that came with the iPod, cannot
be used to connect an iPod to the
vehicle. The iPod connection cable
that was purchased with the vehicle
or that was made available from
your dealer must be used in order
for this feature to work.

The navigation system determines
the position of the vehicle by using
satellite signals, various vehicle
signals, and map data.
At times, other interferences such
as the satellite condition, road
configuration, the condition of the
vehicle and/or other circumstances
can interfere with 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
the GPS Satellites of the United
States Department of Defense.
When the vehicle is not receiving
signals from the satellites, a symbol
appears on the map screen. Refer
to Symbols.
This system may not be available or
interferences may occur if any of the
following is true:
.
Signals are obstructed by tall
buildings, trees, large trucks,
or a tunnel.
.
Objects are located on the rear
shelf of the vehicle.
.
Satellites are being repaired or
improved.
.
After-market glass tinting has
been applied to the vehicle's
rear windshield.
Notice: Do not apply after-market
glass tinting to the vehicle's
windows. Glass tinting interferes
with the system's ability to
receive GPS signals and causes
the system to malfunction. The
window might have to be
replaced to correct the problem.
This would not be covered by the
warranty.
For more information if the GPS is
not functioning properly, see If the
System Needs Service and
Problems with Route Guidance.
Vehicle Positioning
At times, the position of the vehicle
on the map may 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 in sand,
gravel and/or snow.
.
The vehicle is traveling on
winding roads.
.
The vehicle is on a long
straight road.
.
The vehicle is approaching a tall
building or a large vehicle.
Automatic rerouting may 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 may not be
searched.
.
The route to the destination may
not be shown if there are new
roads, if roads have recently
changed or if certain roads are
not listed in the map data. See
Ordering Map DVDs.
To recalibrate the vehicle's position
on the map, see “Compass” in the
vehicle's owner manual.
If the System Needs
Service
