Why does the vehicle position icon on the map “lag” a
short distance behind my actual position, especially at
intersections?
This is normal. The navigation system is unaware of the
width of intersections. Large differences in vehicle position
can indicate a temporary loss of the GPS signal.
Why does the “time to destination” display sometimes
increase even though I am getting closer to my
destination?
The “time to destination” is based on your actual road
speed and traffic conditions to give you a better estimate
of arrival time.
Why does my clock frequently change the time forward
and backward by one hour?
The clock setting is automatically updated based on your
GPS location. If you normally drive between two time
zones, the clock may keep adjusting the time. You can
turn this feature off.

How do I specify a destination when an entered city or
street could not be found?
Try entering the street first. Some cities are lumped in with
a major metro area. In rural “unverified” areas or new
subdivisions, streets may be missing or only partially
numbered.
How do I turn on the navigation system voice guidance?

press u. Check that Volume is not set to OFF.
2.Move y to select Other, rotate i to select Basic

and system prompts.
My battery was disconnected or went dead, and the
navigation system is asking for a code. Where do I find it?

press and hold the VOL 9 (Volume/Power) button for two
seconds; the system should reactivate.

The “time to destination” display sometimes increases
even though I am getting closer to my destination.
If your speed reduces due to slower traffic, the navigation system updates the “time to
destination” based on your actual road speed to give you a better estimate of arrival
time.
The vehicle position icon on the map “lags” a short
distance behind, especially when I arrive at an
intersection.
This is normal. The navigation system is unaware of the width of intersections. Large

When I shift gears, the rear camera image display is
delayed.
This is normal. When shifting into or out of Reverse, you may experience a delay while
the screen image switches between the navigation screen and the rear camera image.
The rear camera image is too dark or too bright. How
do I adjust the brightness?
While the camera image is displayed, rotate the Interface Dial to adjust the brightness.
This adjustment does not affect the navigation screen brightness settings.
