Troubleshooting
For more Information
(P209)
Why does the vehicle position icon on the map “lag” a short distance behind my actual position, especially at intersections? This is normal. The navigation system is unaware of the width of intersections. Large differences in vehicle position can indicate a temporary loss of the GPS signal. Why does the “time to dest
ination” display sometimes
increase even though I am getting closer to my destination? The “time to destination” is based on the posted road speed signs and your actual road speed to give you a better estimate of arrival time. Why does my clock frequently change the time forward and backward by one hour? The clock setting is automatically updated based on your GPS location. If you normally drive between two time zones, the clock may keep adjusting the time. You can turn this feature off. 2Clock Adjustment
P. 58
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. How do I turn on the navigation system voice guidance? 1.Press the INFO/PHONE button. Rotate

and system prompts.My battery was disconnected or went dead, and the navigation system is asking for a code. Where do I find it? Your vehicle comes with a card in the glove box that includes the 5-digit security code and serial number. You should keep this card in a safe place outside your vehicle. If you cannot find it, contact your dealer. QRG

1Correct Vehicle PositionAn apparent position error can occur where buildings, tunnels, and ot
her objects block or
reflect the GPS signals, forcing the system to use “dead reckoning” to determine your location and direction. Using this function to ad
just vehicle position is
not recommended. When the system reacquires a GPS signal, it will automatically place the vehicle in the correct location. If you continually have
to adjust the vehicle
position, you may have
problems with the GPS
reception or there may
be database errors.
