Troubleshooting
I cannot select an option using the Interface Dial.To prevent driver distraction, certain onscr een functions and features are limited or
inoperable while the vehicle is moving. Use voice commands or pull over to proceed.
The navigation system pronunciation of street names
in the guidance command or destination address
sounds strange.The basic guidance phrases use a studio- recorded voice, but street names are
pronounced using a machine-generated voice. Consequently, the name may be
mispronounced or sound strange at times.
The screen is bright when I drive at night.1. Check that the nighttime dashboard brig htness control is not set to maximum.
2. Press the INFO button. Select Set up > Other > Color > Map Color . Set the Night
