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.

Keeping your mind onthedrive 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.

• 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 (if equipped).

• 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.

{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 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.

Each time the vehicle is started and the navigation system is turned on, the Caution screen or the previous active screen will appear dependent on system power off time.

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 using various options. To do so, reference the following topics:

Language — English/Metric

To change the language of the navigation screens, see “Driver Information Center, DIC Vehicle Customization” in the Index of your vehicles owner manual.

To change the navigation screens from English or metric, see “Driver Information Center, DIC Operation and Displays” in the Index of your vehicles owner manual.

Rear Vision Camera Error Messages

Rear Vision Camera System Unavailable: This

message may display when the system is not receiving information it requires from other vehicle systems.

If any other problem occurs or if a problem persists, see your dealer.

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 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 21.

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: Donot 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 60 and Problems with Route Guidance on page 59.

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.

• 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 being driven 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, see your dealer.

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.

• 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 60.

CD Player

The player can be used for CD and MP3. If your vehicle has RSE, the player can be used for CD, MP3, DVD audio, and as a DVD video player. See DVD Player on page 80 for more information about DVD audio and video.

With the ignition on, insert a CD partway into the slot, label side up. The player will pull it in and the CD should begin playing. While playing a CD, the navigation system is available. If you insert a CD with the system off and the ignition on, it will start to play.

When you insert a CD, the CD tab will display.

If you turn off the ignition or radio with a CD in the player, it will stay in the player. When you turn on the ignition or radio, the CD will start playing where it stopped, if it was the last selected audio source.

As each new track starts to play, the track number will appear on the display.

The CD player can play the smaller 3 inch (8cm) single CDs with an adapter ring. Full-size CDs and the smaller CDs are loaded in the same manner.

If playing a CD-R the sound quality may be reduced due to CD-R quality, the method of recording, the quality of the music that has been recorded, and the way the CD-R has been handled. There may be an increase in skipping, difficulty in ﬁnding tracks, and/or difficulty in loading and ejecting. If these problems occur, check the bottom surface of the CD. If the surface of the CD is damaged, such as cracked, broken, or scratched, the CD will not play properly. If the surface of the CD is soiled, see “Care of Your CDs” in the Index of your vehicle’s owner manual.

If there is no apparent damage, try a known good CD.

Notice: Ifyou add any label to a CD, insert more than one CD into the slot at a time, or attempt to play scratched or damaged CDs, you could damage the CD player. When using the CD player, use only CDs in good condition without any label, load one CD at a time, and keep the CD player and the loading slot free of foreign materials, liquids, and debris.

Do not add any label to a CD, it could get caught in the CD player. If a CD is recorded on a personal computer and a description label is needed, try labeling the top of the recorded CD with a soft marker instead.

If an error appears on the display, see “CD Messages” later in this section.

Using an MP3 CD

MP3 Format

There are guidelines that must be met, when creating an MP3 disc. If the guidelines are not met when recording a CD-R(W), the CD may not play. The guidelines are:

• Samplingrate: 16 kHz, 22.05 kHz, 24 kHz,

32 kHz, and 44.1 kHz.

• Bitrates supported: 32, 40, 48, 56, 64, 80, 96,

112, 128, 160, 192, 224, 256, and 320 kbps.

• ID3tag information is displayed by the radio

if it is available. The radio supports ID3 tag information v1.0 or v1.1. The radio will display a ﬁlename, song name, artist name, album name, and directory name.

• Maximum32 characters, including spaces, in a

ﬁle or folder name.

• Maximumnumber of folders is 253 with a

maximum hierarchy of eight folders.

• Createa folder structure that makes it easy to

ﬁnd songs while driving. Organize songs by albums using one folder for each album. Each folder or album should contain 18 songs or less.

• Itis recommended that there is a maximum of

192 ﬁles on a disc.

• Theﬁles can be recorded on a CD-R or CD-RW

with a maximum capacity of 700MB.

• DVDwith MP3 are not playable on this system.

Root Directory

The root directory will be treated as a folder. If the root directory has compressed audio ﬁles, the directory will be displayed as ROOT. All ﬁles contained directly under the root directory will be accessed prior to any root directory folders. However, playlists (Px) will 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 will advance to the next folder in the ﬁle structure that contains compressed audio ﬁles and the empty folder will not be displayed or numbered.

No Folder

When the CD contains only compressed ﬁles, the ﬁles will be located under the root folder. The next and previous folder functions will have no function on a CD that was recorded without folders or playlists. When displaying the name of the folder the radio will display ROOT.

When the CD contains only playlists and compressed audio ﬁles, but no folders, all ﬁles will be located under the root folder. The left and right arrow buttons will search playlists (Px) ﬁrst and then go to the root folder. When the radio displays the name of the folder the radio will display ROOT.

Order of Play

Tracks will be played in the following order:

• Playwill begin from the ﬁrst track in the ﬁrst

playlist and will continue sequentially through all tracks in each playlist. When the last track of the last playlist has been played, play will continue from the ﬁrst track of the ﬁrst playlist.

• Ifthe CD does not contain any playlists, then

play will begin from the ﬁrst track under the root directory. When all tracks from the root directory have been played, play will continue from ﬁles according to their numerical listing. After playing the last track from the last folder, play will begin again at the ﬁrst track of the ﬁrst folder or root directory.

When play enters a new folder, the display will not automatically show the new folder name. The new track name will appear on the display.

File System and Naming

The song name that will display will be the song name that is contained in the ID3 tag. If the song name is not present in the ID3 tag, then the radio will display the ﬁle name without the extension (such as .mp3) as the track name.

Track names longer than 32 characters or four pages will be shortened. The display will not show parts of words on the last page of text and the extension of the ﬁlename will not display.

Preprogrammed Playlists

You can access preprogrammed playlists which were created by WinAmp™, MusicMatch™, or Real Jukebox™ software, however, you will not have editing capability. These playlists will be treated as special folders containing compressed audio song ﬁles.

Playing an MP3

When you insert a CD, the CD tab will display. If you turn off the ignition or radio with a CD in the

player, it will stay in the player. When you turn on the ignition or radio, the CD will start playing where it stopped, if it was the last selected audio source.
