Overview
Read this manual thoroughly to
become familiar with how the
navigation system operates.
Keep 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 do this. Some features
may be disabled while driving. A
grayed-out function indicates it is not
available when the vehicle is
moving.
All functions are available when the
vehicle is parked. Before driving:
• Become familiar with the
navigation system operation, hard
keys on the faceplate, and
touch-sensitive screen buttons of
the navigation system.
• Set up the audio by presetting
favorite stations, setting the
tone, and adjusting the speakers.
• Set up the navigation features
before beginning to drive,
such as entering an address or a
preset destination.
• For vehicles with phone
capability, set up phone numbers
in advance so they can be
called with the press of a single
button or a single voice
command.
{ WARNING
Taking your eyes off the road too
long or too often while using the
navigation system could cause a
crash resulting in injury or death
to you or others. Focus your
attention on driving.
{ WARNING
Avoid looking too long or too often
at the moving map on the
navigation screen. This could
cause a crash and you or others
can be injured or killed. Use the
turn-by-turn voice guidance
directions whenever possible.
Infotainment System5
Use the navigation system to:
• Plan a route by selecting a
destination using the various
methods and choices.
• Follow turn-by-turn instructions
and map guidance with voice
prompts, when 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 could suggest
using a road that is now closed
for construction or a turn that
is prohibited by signs at the
intersection. Because the system
uses limited information, 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 might appear
with the information below.
Read and acknowledge the
information it contains.
{ WARNING
Taking your eyes off the road for
extended periods could cause a
crash resulting in injury or death
to you or others.
To help avoid a crash in which you
or others could be killed:
• Always concentrate on your
driving first by keeping your eyes
and mind on the road, and
your hands on the wheel.
• Follow system directions only if
permitted by traffic laws,
controls, and conditions.
• Before using this system, read
the owner manual and learn
how it operates.
• Some system controls cannot be
used the when vehicle is moving.
It the Caution screen appears, touch
OK. If the NAV or DEST hard
keys are pressed, this Caution
screen appears and OK must be
pressed to access NAV and
DEST functions. See instructions
later in this section.
To get started, set preferences or
delete informations to the navigation
system using various options.

Global Positioning
System (GPS)
The position of the vehicle is
determined 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. See Navigation Symbols onpage 47.
74Infotainment System
This system might not be available
or interferences can 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.
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 could be inaccurate due
to one or more of the following
reasons:
• The road system has changed.
• Driving on slippery road surfaces
such as in sand, gravel
and/or snow.
• Traveling on winding roads or
long straight roads.
• Approaching a tall building or a
large vehicle.
• The surface streets run parallel
to a freeway.
• The vehicle has been transferred
by a vehicle carrier or a ferry.
• The current position calibration is
set incorrectly.
• Traveling at high speed.
• The vehicle changes directions
more than once, or when the
vehicle is turning on a turn table
in a parking lot.
• The vehicle is entering and/or
exiting a parking lot, garage
or a lot with a roof.
• The GPS signal is not received.
• A roof carrier is installed on
the vehicle.
• Tire chains have been installed.
• The tires are replaced or worn.
• The tire pressure for the tires is
incorrect.
• The first navigation use after the
map data is updated.
• The battery is disconnected for
several days.
• The vehicle is driving in heavy
traffic where driving is at low
speeds, and the vehicle is
stopped and started repeatedly.

Problems with Route
Guidance
Inappropriate route guidance can
occur under one or more of the
following conditions:
• The turn was not made on the
road indicated.
• Route guidance might not be
available when using automatic
rerouting for the next right or
left turn.
• The route might not be changed
when using automatic rerouting.
• There is no route guidance when
turning at an intersection.
• Plural names of places might be
announced occasionally.
• It could take a long time to
operate automatic rerouting
during high-speed driving.
• Automatic rerouting might 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 might not be
searched.
• The route to the destination
might 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 Maps on page 45

Database Coverage
Explanations
Coverage areas vary with respect to
the level of map detail available
for any given area. Some areas
feature greater levels of detail than
others. If this happens, it does
not mean there is a problem with
the system. As the map data
is updated, more detail can become
available for areas which previously
had limited detail. See OrderingMap DVDs on page 75 for
more information.
Voice Recognition
The navigation system’s voice
recognition allows for hands free
operation of the navigation system
and the audio system features.
Voice recognition only works if the
map database is installed in the
system.
If the radio is off, the only
commands would be Hands Free
and Help.
Navigation voice commands are not
available until the I Agree button
has been selected.
Voice recognition can be used when
the ignition is on or when Retained
Accessory Power (RAP) is active.
See “Retained Accessory Power
RAP” in the index of the vehicle’s
owner manual for more information.

Helpful Hints for Speaking
Commands
When a multiple command is
•
available, choose the command
that best works for you.
• Words that are in brackets are
optional. For example, the
command “Radio [band] FM”,
saying “Radio FM” or “Radio
Band FM” are both valid
commands.
• Words that are separated by a
( / ) mean there is a choice of
using a word on either side of the
slash. For example, the
command (CD/DVD/Disc) [help],
you can say “CD [help]” or
“DVD [help]” or “Disc [help]”.
• When the system recognizes the
command the system will either
perform the function or ask
to confirm the choice by clearly
saying “yes” or “no”.
• When the system does not
recognize the command,
the system issues an error
message such as “pardon” or
“command not recognized”. The
system could also say, “voice
recognition canceled”.
• If experiencing difficulty with the
system recognizing a command,
confirm that the command is
correct. Try saying the command
clearly or wait for a brief
moment after the beep.
• Background noise such as a
climate control fan positioned
on high, open windows, and very
loud outside noises, even if
the windows are closed,
can cause voice commands to
be misunderstood
• This system is able to recognize
commands in different languages,
such as English, French
(Canadian), and Spanish (Latin).
The system only recognizes
commands based on the
language selected.
88Infotainment System
• To increase or decrease the
voice volume during a voice
recognition session, turn
the volume knob of the radio, or
press the volume steering
wheel control buttons. If the
