Frequently Asked Questions
Display, Accessories
Rear Camera
Miscellaneous Other Questions
Problem Solution
The display appears dim when starting the car in really cold
weather. Is there a problem? No. This is normal, and it will become brighter after a few minutes.
Problem Solution
When I shift gears, the rear camera image is delayed. When shifting into or out of reverse, you may experience delays when the
screen image switches between the navigation screen and the rear camera
image. This is normal.
The rear camera image is too dark or too bright. How do I
adjust the brightness? While the camera image is displaye
d, use the rotating portion of the
Interface Dial (knob ) to adjust the brightness . This adjustment does not
affect the SETUP screen brightness adjustments.
Problem Solution
My clock frequently changes forward and backward by one
hour. Why is this? The clock is being automatically set ba
sed on your GPS location. If you live
and work on the boundary between two time zones, you can turn off this
feature. See page 115 (Auto Time Zone).
When driving near a time zone border, the time changes even
though I am not near the time zone. Why is this? The time zone borders are only appr
oximated in the system. Depending on
the geography of the time zone boundary, the switch to a different zone can
be erratic. See page 115 (Auto Time Zone).
My state does not observe dayli ght saving time. How do I turn
off this feature? You can turn off this feature. See page
114 (Auto Daylight).

Frequently Asked Questions
Daylight saving time occurred, but the navigation system did
not change time even though SETUP shows Auto Daylight
is ON . The automatic daylight saving time feature does not work in regions where
the daylight saving time
system is not adopted.
The navigation system automatic daylight time feature is not
switching the navigation system clock on the correct dates.
Why is this? 1) Go to the
Clock adjustment screen in SETUP and ensure that Auto
Daylight is ON .
2) The automatic daylight saving time feature does not work in regions
where the daylight saving ti me system is not adopted.
For more information, see page 114.

apparent reason. Wh at can cause this? You may be driving near
a time zone boundary (see Auto Daylight on
page 114). See page 115 (Auto Time Zone) 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 be a card in the glove box with the anti-theft code for the
navigation/audio syst
em. This card contains the 5-digit security code and
serial number. If you cannot find it , your dealer can help you out.
I speak a language other than English. Are there any other
languages available for the system? Besides English, you may select Fr
ançais or Español for your language
setting.
