Getting Started

Before you begin tooperatethe 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:
Familiarizeyourself with all of its controls: hard
keys on the faceplate and touch-sensitive screen buttons.
Familiarizeyourself with its operation.
6
Page 7
Setup 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.
Setup 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.

Page 8
{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.
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.
The information in the system may not always be complete. Road conditions, such as prohibited turns, detours, and construction zones, change frequently. It is important to consider whether you can follow the directions given by the system 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.

Global Positioning System (GPS)

The navigation system determines the position of your 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 your vehicle using signals sent by the GPS Satellites of the United States Department of Defense.
56
Page 57
When your vehicle is not receiving signals from the satellites, a symbol will appear on the map screen. Refer to Symbols on page 21.
This system may not be available or interferences may occur if any of the following are true:
Signals are obstructed by tall buildings, trees,
large trucks, or a tunnel.
Objects are located on the rear shelf.
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 will interfere with the system’s ability to receive GPS signals and cause the system to malfunction. You might have to replace the window to correct the problem. This would not be covered by your warranty.
For more information if you are experiencing a problem, see If the System Needs Service
on page 59 and Problems with Route Guidance on page 58.

Database Coverage Explanations

If your system needs service and you have followed the steps listed here and still are experiencing problems, see your dealer/retailer for assistance.

Ordering Map DVDs

The map DVD in your vehicle is the most up-to-date information available when your vehicle was produced. The map DVD is updated periodically, provided that the map information has changed. To order a new map DVD, contact your dealer/retailer.
Coverage areas vary with respect to the level of map detail available for any given area. Some areas will feature greater levels of detail than others. If this happens, it does not mean there is a problem with the system. As the map DVD is updated, more detail may become available for areas which previously had limited detail.
