Frequently Asked Questions
Map, and Features, Voice Operation, Entering Addresses
Problem Solution
Why does the  Disclaimer screen need to be displayed every 
time I start the car? I am the only driver. The 
Disclaimer  screen reminds you and your  guest drivers to always 
operate the navigation sy stem in a safe manner.
The  Setup  or Information  screen has “grayed out” items that 
I cannot select. Why? You need to select 
OK on the  Disclaimer  screen to view these items. See 
System Function Diagram  on page 26.
I tried entering an address, but th e city or street could not be 
found. Is there any other way to route to the location? Some cities are lumped in with a major metro area Try entering the street 
first. In rural “unverified” areas 
or new subdivisions, streets may be 
missing, or only partiall y numbered. Try selecting the destination directly 
from the map. See  By Map Input on page 45.
When I enter an address, some letters become grayed out. Is 
this normal? Yes, as you enter each letter in an addr
ess or a point of interest (POI), the 
system looks in the databa se to see what letters are possible and “grays out” 
letters that do not apply.
How do I delete Personal Address,  Previous Destinations, or 
the Home Address? This is done in Setup, under “P
ersonal Information.” See page 84.
I cannot hear the navigation system voice. 1) Ensure that Volume in the Setup  screen (first) is not OFF. See page 83.
2) Go to “Basic Settings” in the  Setup screen (second), and set  Voice 
Recognition Feedback  to ON . See page 90.
The voice control system is ha ving difficulty recognizing my 
Voice commands. Ensure that the vents are not blowi
ng on the microphone on the ceiling, the 
vehicle is as quiet as  possible, and that you are using the correct command 
when speaking (See  Improving Voice Recognition  on page 14). Say “Help” 
at any screen to see a list of  the applicable voice commands.
When the system pronounces the  street name in the guidance 
command, or reads the destinat ion address it sounds strange. 
What causes this? The basic guidance phrase uses a studio
-recorded voice, but the street name 
is pronounced by the system us ing a machine-generated voice. 
Consequently, the name may be misp ronounced or sound strange at times.
When I drive at night, the screen  is bright and will not switch 
to the night display mode. Why? Verify the following: The disp
lay mode in Setup is set to Night mode, the 
dash brightness is not  set to maximum, and Map Color in Setup is set to 
Black  for Night. See  Switching Display Mode  on page 104.

Frequently Asked Questions
The daytime map screen is dark like the night display mode, 
and it is hard to see. Why? Verify the following: The disp
lay mode in Setup is set to Day mode, and 
Map Color  in Setup is set to  White for Day. See Switching Display Mode 
on page 104.
During the day, I turned on the lights because it started to 
rain, but the screen went dark. How can I make it still display 
day mode? Adjust the dash brightness (+) knob to fu
ll brightness. Remember to set it 
back to a medium setting, or at ni ght, the screen will be bright. See 
Switching Display Mode  on page 104.
How can I input my destination using map  coordinates? The navigation system was not designed for this. However, you can view 
the coordinates of an address by pushing in on the  Interface Dial, selecting 
Show Icon on Map , and moving the Interface Dial left to select 
Current Location . See Displaying Current Location  on page 21
How do I change or remove my PIN? Go to “Personal Information” in the  Setup screen (second) , and select PIN 
Number . Enter your existing PIN, and then you have the choice to change 
or remove the PIN. See page 88.
I forget the PIN. How do I reset it? PINs are optional. See information regarding PINs on page 88. Your dealer 
can reset the PIN for you.
I change my setup settings, bu t they are not saved when I 
restart the vehicle. Verify that your Remote Keyless 
Entry is linked (The MID shows 
“Welcome drive 1” or “Welcome dr iver 2”). See page 18 for additional 
information.
I cannot access my Calendar or Address Book. Why?
CALL  is not available on the  Calculate route to screen. 
Why? Your phone is not “paired” to the HFL, 
or if your phone is “paired,” it is in 
use; press  HFL BACK  button.
