Overview

Read this manual thoroughly to become familiar with how the navigation system operates.

The navigation system includes navigation and audio functions.

While entering the vehicle or when turning the vehicle off, some DVD Map Disc noise is normal.

Keeping 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 keep your eyes on the road and mind on the drive. Some features may be disabled while driving. Note that these functions will be grayed-out. A grayed-out function indicates it is not available when the vehicle is moving.

All functions are available when the vehicle is parked. Do the following 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.

Infotainment System 5

• Set up the navigation features

before beginning driving, such as entering an address or a preset destination.

• Set up your phone numbers in

advance so they can be called easily with the press of a single button or a single voice command (for navigation systems equipped with phone capability).

{ 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.

Use the navigation system to:

• Plan a route.

• Select a destination using

various methods and choices.

• Follow turn-by-turn route and

map guidance with voice prompts, only if permitted by traffic laws, controls, and conditions.

You should 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 may 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, you must 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 may appear with the information below, and you must read and acknowledge the information it contains.

6 Infotainment System

{ 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’s manual and learn how it operates.

• Some system controls cannot be

used the when vehicle is moving.

After you acknowledge the start up information you will be able to access the NAV (navigation) and DEST (destination) functions. Once accessed, you can enter or delete information in the navigation system or access other functions. See instructions later in this section.

Every ﬁfty timesthe vehicle is started and the navigation system is turned on, the Caution screen appears. After reading the caution, select 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. You can also press the NAV hard key to have this Caution screen appear.

When getting started, set the navigation system to your preference or delete information you may have entered using various options.

Radio Data System (RDS)

The audio system has a Radio Data System (RDS). RDS features are available for use only on FM stations that broadcast RDS information. With RDS, the radio can do the following:

• Seek to stations broadcasting the

selected type of programming

• Receive announcements

concerning local and national emergencies

• Display messages from radio

stations

This system relies on receiving speciﬁc information from these stations and will only work when the information is available. In rare cases, a radio station may broadcast incorrect information that will cause the radio features to work improperly. If this happens, contact the radio station.

The RDS system is always on. When information is broadcast from the FM station you are listening to, the station name or call letters will be displayed on the audio screen. RDS may provide a program type (PTY) for current programming and the name of the program being broadcasted.

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 (Supported Sampling rate and Bit rates will vary based on CD or DVD Navigation Systems):

• Sampling rate: 8 kHz, 11.025

kHz, 12 kHz, 16 kHz, 22.05 kHz, 24 kHz, 32 kHz, and 44.1 kHz, 48 kHz, 88.2 kHz, 96 kHz,

176.4 kHz, and 192 kHz.

• Bit rates supported: 8, 16, 24,

32, 40, 48, 56, 64, 80, 96, 112, 128, 160, 192, 224, 256, and 320 kbps.

• ID3 tag 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.

• Maximum 32 characters,

including spaces, in a ﬁle or folder name.

• Maximum number of folders is

253 with a maximum hierarchy of eight folders.

• Create a 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.

• It is recommended that there is a

maximum of 192 ﬁles on a disc.

• The ﬁles can be recorded on a

CD-R or CD-RW with a maximum capacity of 700MB.

• DVD with 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.

26 Infotainment System

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:

• Play will 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.

• If the 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.
