Problem
Solution
The Startup Confirmation screen is displayed every time I start the car.
This is normal. The Startup Confirmation scr
een reminds you and your guest drivers to
always operate the navigation system in a
safe manner. If you do not select "OK" at
startup, voice commands will not work.
The navigation system reboots by itself (returns to the opening screen).
A reboot can be caused by extreme temper
atures or shock from bumpy roads, and
does not necessarily indicate a problem. If this happens frequently, please see your dealer.
How do I specify a destination when an entered city or street could not be found?
• Try entering the street first.
Some cities are lumped in with a major metro area. In
rural “unverified” areas or new subdivisions,
streets may be missing or only partially
numbered.• Try selecting the destinati
on directly from the map.

Why do some letters become grayed out when I enter an address?

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 navigation system sometimes provides a detour route when I am drivi

your destination only if it can find a signific
