Getting Started

Before you begin to operate the navigation system, read this manual thoroughly to become familiar with it and to understand how the system works.

Any route suggestions made by this navigation system may never override local traffic regulations, your own judgement, and/or knowledge of safe driving practices.

Disregard route suggestions made by the navigation system if such suggestions would; cause you to perform a hazardous or illegal maneuver, place you in a hazardous situation, or route you into an area you consider unsafe.

Keeping your mind on the drive is important for safe driving. See “Defensive Driving” in the Index of your vehicle’s owner manual for more information. Get familiar with your vehicle’s navigation system so you can use it with less effort and take full advantage of its features. Your navigation system includes not only navigation, but also audio functions. While your vehicle is parked:

• Familiarize yourself with all of its controls: hard

keys on the faceplate and touch-sensitive screen buttons.

• Familiarize yourself with its operation.

1-4

• Set up your audio by presetting your favorite

stations, setting the tone, and adjusting the speakers. Then, when driving conditions permit, you can tune to your favorite stations using the presets and steering wheel controls.

• Set up the navigation features that can only be

done before you begin driving, such as entering an address or a preset destination.

Entering a destination or alphanumeric text requires many steps, so you can only perform these operations when the vehicle is in PARK (P). You will notice that touch-sensitive screen buttons leading to the alphanumeric keyboard are dimmed out while driving.

Other functions may also be locked out while driving and they too will appear grayed out on the screen — but all functions are available when parked. Some functions can be performed while driving, as long as you can do so without diverting too much of your attention from your driving.

{CAUTION:

This system provides you with a far greater access to audio stations and song listings. Giving extended attention to entertainment tasks while driving can cause a crash and you or others can be injured or killed. Always keep your eyes on the road and your mind on the drive — avoid engaging in extended searching while driving.

{CAUTION:

Looking at the moving map on the navigation screen frequently or for too long while driving can cause a crash and you or others can be injured or killed. Keep your eyes and mind on the road and avoid looking too long or too often at the moving map on the navigation screen. Use the voice guidance directions whenever possible.

1-5

The navigation system allows you to do the following:

• Plan a route with provided turn-by-turn route

and map guidance with voice prompts.

• Select a destination using various methods and

choices.

• Receive Radio Data System (RDS) broadcast

announcements.

You should always be alert and obey traffic and roadway laws and instructions, regardless of the guidance from the navigation system. 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. The system uses limited information, you must always evaluate whether following the system’s directions is safe and legal for the current conditions.

Every ﬁfty times the vehicle is started and the navigation system is turned on, the Caution screen will appear. If the Caution screen appears, touch OK to load the map DVD information. If OK is not selected, all hard keys except for NAV (Navigation) and DEST (Destination) can be accessed. Once the NAV or DEST hard keys are pressed, this Caution screen will appear and OK must be pressed to load the map DVD information from the map disc.

When getting started you may set the navigation system to your preference or delete information you may have entered using various options. To do so, reference the following topics.

This navigation system can record and store personal information such as names and addresses. At times, such as when you are disposing of your vehicle, you may want to delete this information.
