When you turn the ignition to ON (II), it
takes several seconds for the navigation
system to boot up.
The first screen to appear is the
navigation system globe screen. The

 The symbol is explained on page18. Read this disclaimer carefully so you
understand it before continuing. Push in
on the
Interface Dial to select OK, and
the map screen will appear on the
display. The “OK” cannot be activated

If you do not push in on the Interface
Dial , the screen will go dark after 30
seconds. To return to the Disclaimer
screen, press any navigation or voice
control button.
NOTE:
If you do not select OK, and then enter
the Setup or Information screens, some
items are not available, and will show
up as darkened buttons (grayed out).
See System Function Diagram on
page26.

Getting Started
System Function Diagram
This diagram shows the navigation
system features, starting at the center
and working outward in layers. The
navigation program starts at “Key ON,”
and then displays the globe screen
(blue). If OK is selected on the
Disclaimer screen, the functions in the
yellow segments of the diagram become
available in the Setup and Information
screens. The white segments of the
diagram are available anytime, even if
you do not select OK.
The items above the map screen show
various methods to begin driving to
your destination (orange). You are
provided with map/voice guidance,
routing cautions, and a direction list.
While driving to your destination, use
the voice control system as much as
possible to interact with the navigation,
audio, and climat e control systems
(green).

Navigation System99
System Set-up
NOTE:
 You can select areas to avoid,
however you cannot select roads or
areas that you want the system to use
for routing.
 If you are drawing a box around a road as an area to avoid, ensure the
following: When you draw the box,
make sure that the road or portion of
a road that you encircled includes an
intersection. For instance, in the
example below, highway 213 will be
avoided, but Van Ness will not be
avoided because it lacks an
intersection in the enclosed box.Edit Waypoint Search Area
When driving on route to your
destination, you can select a temporary
destination “waypoint” (marked with a
small flag on the map) along your route
for gas, a restaurant, or other POI. When
you resume your trip from the
“waypoint,” the syst em continues the
trip to your original destination. To use
this feature, see Search Waypoint on
Route on page71.
This Setup item allows you to select the
distance from your highlighted route
line (on either side of your route), that
the system will search for a “waypoint.”
From the Routing & Guidance screen,
select Edit Waypoint Search Area ,
and then choose the desired search
distance for either “On Freeways” or
“On Surface Street.” The diagram below shows how the
system handles the search for “Places
Along the Route” or “Places Around the
Destination” (see
Search Waypoint on
Route on page71).

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 page26.
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
85.
I cannot hear the navigation system voice. 1) Ensure that Volume in the Setup screen (first) is not OFF. See page
84.
2) Go to “Basic Settings” in the Setup screen (second), and set Voice
Recognition Feedback to ON . See page
91.
The voice control system is ha ving difficulty recognizing my
Voice commands. Ensure that the center and side ve
nts are not blowing on the microphone on
the ceiling, place your hand over th e microphone; if you feel any airflow,
adjust the vents. Ensure 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.
