4 Infotainment System

Overview

Read this manual thoroughly to become familiar with how the navigation system operates.
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 do this. Some features may be disabled while driving. Note that these functions are 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. 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.
Set up 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 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.
Receive RDS broadcast
announcements.
Infotainment System 5
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 are 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.
After acknowledging the start up information you will be able to access the NAV (navigation) and DEST (destination) functions. Once accessed, enter or delete information in the navigation system or access other functions. See instructions later in this section.
Each time the vehicle is started and the navigation system is turned on, the Caution screen appears. Touch OK to accept the Caution.
6 Infotainment System
If OK is not selected, all hard keys except for NAV and DEST can be accessed. Once the NAV or DEST hard keys are pressed, this Caution screen appears and OK must be pressed to access the navigation map.
When getting started the navigation system can be set to preferences or information that has been entered can be deleted using various options.
