System OverviewYour navigation system is a highly
sophisticated location system with voice
control that uses satellites and a map
database to show you where you are and to
help guide you to a desired destination.
The navigation system receives signals
from the global positioning system (GPS),
a network of 24 satellites in orbit around
the earth. By receiving signals from several
of these satellites, the navigation system
can determine the latitude, longitude, and
elevation of your vehicle. In addition, a
gyroscopic yaw sensor and a vehicle speed
sensor in your vehicle keep track of the
direction and speed of travel at all times.
This vehicle’s navigation display, if so
equipped, includes mercury-containing
components. Upon removal, please reuse,
recycle, or dispose of as hazardous waste.
The navigation system applies this
location, direction, and speed information
to the maps and calculates a route to the
destination you enter. As you drive to that
destination, the system provides map and
voice guidance.NOTICE

Navigation System91
System Setup
After you have travelled approximately
800 metres away from a mapped road,
the system will display a series of white
dots on the map screen to show the path
you have travelled. This is provided so
you can follow the dots to backtrack to
the mapped road you originally left.
Tracking continues until you reach a
mapped road. See Off-road Tracking on
page 60.
Tracking is shown only in the 80, 200,
400, and 800 metre scales, or the 1/20,
1/8, 1/4, and 1/2 mile scales. Use the
ZOOM buttons to change the scales if
necessary.
NOTE:
To clear existing dots, turn this feature
off and exit Setup. To re-enable this
feature, return to Setup and turn it on
again.
Correct Vehicle PositionThe system relies on satellites for
positioning information. Buildings,
tunnels, and other objects can block or
reflect these signals, requiring the
system to use “dead reckoning” to
determine your location and direction.
This can sometimes lead to small errors
in positioning, such as showing you on
an adjacent street.
NOTE:
Using this function to adjust vehicle
position is not recommended. When the
system acquires a GPS signal, it will
automatically place the vehicle in the
correct location.
If you choose to do this, follow these
steps:
1. Stop the vehicle.
2. Select Adjust, and the system will
display a map adjustment screen.3. Use the ZOOM buttons and the
joystick to move the location
arrowhead to the correct location.
Touch the arrow buttons on the
bottom of the screen to rotate the
direction arrows so the vehicle
position is pointing in the correct
direction.
NOTE:
If you continually have to do this, there
are either problems in the database or
GPS reception problems. See
Accessories Precautions on page 5.
4. When you have finished, press the
joystick or select Done to return to
the previous screen.
5. As you drive, the current road will be
displayed at the bottom of the screen.

System Initialization
GPS InitializationDepending on the length of time the
battery was disconnected, your system
may require GPS initialization. If it
does, the following screen appears:
If this procedure is not necessary, the
system proceeds directly to the
Disclaimer screen (see page 16).
During initialization, the system
searches for all available GPS satellites
and obtains their orbital information.
During this procedure, the vehicle
should be out in the open with a clear
view of the sky.If the navigation system finds the
satellites properly, this box clears and
the Disclaimer screen is shown. If
within 10 minutes the system fails to
locate a sufficient number of satellites to
locate your position, the following
screen appears:
If the system is still unable to acquire a
signal, follow the instructions on the
screen, or contact your local dealer for
assistance.
NOTE:
The average acquiring time is less than
10 minutes, but it can take as long as 45
minutes.
Map MatchingThis part of the initialization matches
the GPS coordinates found above with a
road on the map screen. To perform this
part of the procedure, ensure that the
navigation system is displaying a map,
and drive the vehicle on a mapped road
(a road shown on the map screen). Do
not enter a destination at this time.
When the name of the current road you
are driving on appears at the bottom of
the screen, the entire procedure is
complete. Your system is now ready to
use.
The navigation system lost power and is acquiring its
location from the GPS satellites. This usually takes
less than 10 minutes.
* Start the engine.
* Park the vehicle in an open area away from trees,
power lines, and tall buildings.
* Remove loose articles, cell phones, or electrical
accessories located near the GPS antenna.
* If this screen is displayed repeatedly when starting
the vehicle, see your dealer.
Something is interfering with the system’s ability to
acquire its location. Check the following:
* The vehicle must be in an open area with a clear
view of the sky.
* Remove sources of GPS interference like metallic
window tint above antenna, or electrical items
near antenna (see owner's manual for details).
* Check GPS antenna cable connection.
* Restart the engine and repeat the GPS acquire
procedure. If the problem persists, see your dealer.

System LimitationsAlthough your navigation system is one
of the most highly sophisticated pieces
of equipment you will find in a modern
automobile, you may find during its use
that it has certain limitations.
The system uses GPS signals to aid in
determining its current location. The
GPS is operated by the U.S.
Department of Defense. For security
reasons, there are certain inaccuracies
built into the GPS that the navigation
system must constantly compensate for.
This can cause occasional positioning
errors of up to tens of metres.
For example, in urban areas where
streets are close together, this could
cause the system to show that you are
travelling on a street that parallels the
street you are actually on. The system
will, under most circumstances, correct
itself while you drive.Depending on your current view of the
sky and the position of the satellites, the
elevation may be shown incorrectly.
You may also notice some delay of the
vehicle position icon at intersections;
this is normal.
GPS Reception IssuesThe signals received from the GPS
satellites are extremely weak (less than
a millionth of the strength of a local FM
station) and require an unobstructed
view of sky. The signal can easily be
interrupted or interfered with by the
following:
• Aftermarket metallic window tint
above or to the sides of the GPS
antenna (located under the
dashboard)
• Cell phones, PDAs, or other
electronic devices docked in a cradle
or lying loose on the dashboard
• Radar detectors mounted on the
dashboard
• Remote starters, or “hidden” vehicle
tracking systems mounted near the
navigation unit• Other aftermarket audio electronic
devices mounted near the navigation
unit
• Trees, tall buildings, highway
overpasses, tunnels, or overhead
electrical power wires
Although the system will direct you to
your desired destination, it may not
always generate what you consider to be
the most direct route. Try changing the
method of routing. See Changing the
Routing Method on page 46. You may
also have Unverified Area Routing set
to OFF. See Unverified Area Routing on
page 83.
Additionally, the mapping database
contains verified and unverified maps.
See Map Overview on page 6. A
Disclaimer screen will warn you if your
route includes unverified streets.
Unverified streets may be missing from
the map, in the wrong location, or have
an incorrect name or address range.
Exercise additional caution when
driving in these unverified areas.

Frequently Asked QuestionsWhile I drive, my screen shows white dots (“breadcrumbs”)
on it. What do they mean?These are called “breadcrumbs.” If you drive more than 800 metres from
mapped roads, the off-road tracking feature begins to function. See Off-road
Tracking on pages 60 and 90.
How can I get rid of the white dots (“breadcrumbs”) from my
screen?Go to “Vehicle” in the Setup screen (second), and set Off-road Tracking
to Off, then return to the map. See page 90.
A road that I selected to avoid is being used when routing.
What is wrong?When you “draw” your area to avoid, make sure to select sections of roads
that include at least one intersection. See page 87.
When I arrive at my destination, the bull’s-eye is shown at a
different location on the street. Why?The system calculates the bull’s-eye location based on the street address
range allocated for that street. See Destination Icon on page 55 for an
example.
My elevation (shown when I touch the vehicle position icon)
seems to fluctuate even though my elevation has not changed.This is normal and due to errors in satellite position. The elevation can vary
+/- 30 metres. See System Limitations on page 98.
My elevation is missing on the “current position” screen.
Why?If the GPS antenna cannot receive at least four satellites, the elevation is not
displayed. Try moving the vehicle into an open area. If the elevation is zero
or below sea level, the elevation is also not displayed. Problem Solution
