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’s ability to determine the accurate position of the vehicle.
The GPS shows the accurate current position of your vehicle using signals sent by the GPS Satellites of the United States Department of Defense. When your vehicle is not receiving signals from the satellites, a symbol will appear on the map screen. Refer to Symbols on page 2-8.
This system may not be available/or interference may occur if the following happens:
Signal obstructions caused by tall buildings, large
trucks, tunnels,
objects located on top of the instrument panel,
satellites will not send signals if they are being
repaired or improved,
after-market glass tinting has been applied to the
vehicle’s windows.
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 2-66 and Problems with Route Guidance on page 2-65.

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.
The surface streets run parallel to a freeway.
The vehicle has just been transferred by a vehicle
carrier or a ferry.
2-64
The current position calibration is set incorrectly.
The vehicle is 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 your vehicle.
The vehicle is equipped with tire chains.
The tires are replaced.
The tire pressure for your tires is incorrect.
The tires are worn.
The first time the map DVD is inserted.
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.
If you experience problems with your system, you may need to calibrate the system. This may be due to tire pressure differences, or if a spare tire is installed. To calibrate the system, see Configure Menu on page 2-55.

Problems with Route Guidance

Inappropriate route guidance may occur under one or more of the following conditions:
You have not turned onto the road indicated.
Route guidance may not be available when using
automatic rerouting for the next right or left turn.
The route may not be changed when using
automatic rerouting.
There is no route guidance when turning at an
intersection.
Plural names of places may be announced
occasionally.
It may take a long time to operate automatic
rerouting during high-speed driving.
Automatic rerouting may display a route returning to
the set waypoint if you are 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.
2-65
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 on the map DVD. See Ordering Map DVDs on page 2-66.
To recalibrate the vehicle’s position on the map, see Configure Menu on page 2-55.

If the System Needs Service

If your system needs service and you have followed the steps listed here and still are experiencing problems, see your dealer for assistance. For more information on calibrating the system, see Configure Menu on page 2-55.

Ordering Map DVDs

The map DVD in your vehicle is the most up-to-date information available when your vehicle was purchased. The map DVD is updated once a year, provided that the map information has changed. To order a new map DVD, contact your dealer.

Database Coverage Explanations

The United States, excluding Alaska and Hawaii, and portions of Canada are contained on one DVD disc. The map database contains three different levels of coverage: detailed areas, non-detailed areas and limited guidance areas. Detailed areas are available for the United States and Canada and are primarily located around metropolitan areas. Limited guidance areas are only available for the United States. The roads are displayed on the map, but route and voice guidance is not available. Non-detailed areas are available for Canada only. Major roads are included depending upon available coverage.
For more detailed information on database coverage, see the Navigation System Map Disc manual included inside the map DVD case.

Navigation Audio System

Notice: Before adding any sound equipment to your vehicle, such as an audio system, CD player, CB radio, mobile telephone, or two-way radio, make sure that it can be added by checking with your dealer. Also, check federal rules covering mobile radio and telephone units. If sound equipment can be added, it is very important to do it properly. Added sound equipment may interfere with the operation of your vehicle’s engine, radio, or other systems, and even damage them. Your vehicle’s systems may interfere with the operation of sound equipment that has been added.
Your vehicle has a feature called Retained Accessory Power (RAP). With RAP, the audio system can be played even after the ignition is turned off. See “Retained Accessory Power (RAP)” in the Index of your vehicle’s owner manual for more information.

Six-Disc DVD Changer Errors
Although the DVD or CD you are playing meets regulation requirements, there are circumstances that may cause the disc to not play correctly. Some of those circumstances may include the recording conditions of the disc, the disc condition, and the pick up circumstances of the player.
If using the system in extremely low or high temperatures, the video playback may become distorted.
Because of some types of compression techniques used during recording MP3 discs, the sound quality of the discs can be inferior. This is not caused by the audio system.

Auxiliary Devices

The audio and video adapters allow you to connect audio and video devices, such as a hand-held computer, video camera or a video cassette recorder, to the navigation system. The audio and video input from the playback source is viewed on the navigation system screen and the audio is heard through the speakers. The video image is only available when the vehicle is in PARK (P).
Connect the auxiliary device to the audio and video connectors, located in the center console. The system requires standard RCA cables, not included, to connect the auxiliary device to the RCA jacks. Refer to the manufacturer’s instructions for proper usage. The video, and left, and right audio jacks have graphics and color coding to allow for easy identification.
Connect the auxiliary devices to the jacks as follows:
Connect the video input of the auxiliary device
to the yellow video input/output jack.
Connect the left audio input of the auxiliary device
to the white audio input jack. For auxiliary devices that only have one audio connection, use the white jack.
Connect the right audio input of the auxiliary device
to the red audio input jack.

Radio Personalization

With this feature, you can recall the latest audio system settings as adjusted the last time your vehicle was operated. This feature allows two different drivers to store and recall their own audio system settings. The settings recalled by the audio system are determined by which RKE transmitter (1 or 2) was used to enter the vehicle. The number on the back of the RKE transmitter corresponds to driver 1 or to driver 2. The audio system settings will automatically adjust to where they were last set by the identified driver. The settings can also be recalled using the memory screens under the CONFIG MENU or voice recognition. See Personalization on page 5-2 for more information.
When battery power is removed and later applied, you will not have to reset your audio system preset stations.
