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

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

If you cannot find it, contact your dealer. QRG

The display appears dim when starting the car in really cold weather.
This is normal. The display will become brighter after a few minutes.
Problem
Solution
When I shift gears, the rear camera image display is delayed.
This is normal. When shifting into or out of Reverse, you may experience a delay while the screen image switches between the navigation screen and the rear camera image.
The rear camera image is t

do I adjust the brightness?
While the camera image is disp
layed, rotate the Interface Di
al to adjust the brightness.
This adjustment does not affect the navigation screen brightness settings.
