System Initialization
System Initialization
If for any reason, you lose power to the
navigation system (like the battery was
disconnected), the navigation system
will require initialization. Once
completed, your system will be ready to
use.
This initialization requires the
following:
Entry of the 4-digit anti-theft security code to “unlock” the navigation
system.
GPS initialization (may not be needed depending on the le ngth of time the
system was without power).
Map matching to align the GPS coordinates to a place on the map
(displays current street at the bottom
of the map).
Entering the Security Code
If the battery goes dead or is
disconnected for any reason, you will
have to enter a security code for both the
audio system and the navigation system
before you can use it again.
When you purchased the vehicle, you
should have received two cards that
have the audio and navigation system’s
security codes and serial numbers. Keep
these cards in a sa fe place in case you
need the codes. If you lose the cards,
you must obtain the security codes from
your dealer. Enter the four-digit s
ecurity code. If you
have entered it corr ectly, the display
changes to the Disclaimer screen. If
you make a mistake, the system will
display “INCORRECT PIN.” Re-enter
your 4-digit security code. You have ten
chances to enter the correct code. If all
ten are incorrect, turn the ignition to
OFF, then back to ON (II) to have ten
more chances to enter the correct code.
Follow the instructions in the vehicle
Owner’s manual to enter the 5-digit
audio code. The navigation voice will
not operate if the audio code is not
entered.
NOTE:
The anti-theft security code is unrelated
to your optional Navigation system PIN
(for Personal or Home Address).

Frequently Asked Questions
Daylight savings time occurred, but the navigation system did
not change time even though Setup shows “Auto Daylight” is
“ON.” Go to the Clock Adjustment
screen in Setup and simply turn off the auto
daylight savings time feature, select Time Adjustment , and adjust your
clock
using the Interface Dial by one hour. For more information, see
Clock Adjustment on page 99.
The navigation system automatic daylight time feature is not
switching the navigation system clock on the correct dates.
Why is this? The Navigation system is designed to
switch to daylight savings time in
April/October. For more information, see Clock Adjustment on page 99.
The navigation system clock switched by one hour for no
apparent reason. Wh at can cause this? 1) You may be near a ti
me zone boundary…(Covered in the other “clock”
FAQs)
2) The navigation system is still swit ching per the old Daylight savings
schedule (April/October). Set the “Auto Daylight” to “OFF” on the
Clock Adjustment screen in Setup. Manually adjust the clock by one
hour as needed. See page 99 for more information.
My battery was disconnected, or went dead, and the
navigation system is asking for a code. Where do I find this
code? There should have been a card in the
glove box with the anti-theft code for
the navigation/audio system. This card contains the 4-digit security code
and serial number. If you cannot find it, your de aler can help you out.
I speak a language other than English. When will other
languages be available fo r the navigation system? This is being considered
as a future enhancement.
