Navigation System
Frequently Asked QuestionsWhen I drive at night, the screen is bright and will not switch
to the night display mode. Why?The system thinks it’s in Day display mode. Verify the following: The
display mode in Setup is set to Auto, the dash brightness is not set to
maximum (must adjust with the headlights on), and Map Colour in Setup
is set to Black for Night. See Display on page 74.
The daytime map screen is dark like the night display mode,
and it is hard to see. Why?Verify the following: The display mode in Setup is set to Auto, and Map
Colour in Setup is set to White for Day. See Display on page 74.
During the day, I turned on the lights because it started to
rain, but the screen went dark. How can I make it still display
day mode?Adjust the dash brightness (with the headlights on) to full bright. Remember
to set it back to a medium setting, or at night, the screen will be bright. See
Display on page 74.
How can I input my destination using map coordinates? The navigation system was not designed for this. However, you can view
the coordinates of an address by touching the vehicle position icon on the
map. See Map Screen Legend on page 50.
How do I change or remove my PIN? Go to “Personal Information” in the Setup screen (second), and select PIN
Number. Select User 1 or User 2 and enter your existing PIN, and then
you have the choice to change or remove the PIN. See page 80.
I forgot the PIN for Home, or the PIN for personal addresses
(User 1 or User 2). How do I reset it?PINs are optional. See information regarding PINs on page 80. Your dealer
can reset the PIN for you.
CALL is not available on the Calculate route to screen.
Why?Your phone is not paired to HFL, or if your phone is paired, it is in use or
does not have good coverage; press the HFL BACK button. Problem Solution

Frequently Asked Questions
Guidance, Routing
Problem Solution
The navigation does not route me the same way I would go, or
the way some other mapping program displays. Why is this?The navigation system attempts to generate the optimum route. See
Changing the Routing Method on page 46.
Why is the street I’m on not shown on the map? It has been
here for more than a year.The mapping database is constantly undergoing revision. See page 103 for
ways to obtain the latest detailed coverage information.
The vehicle position icon is not following the road, and the
“GPS icon” text in the upper left hand corner of the screen is
white or missing.• The GPS antenna (located under the centre of the dashboard) may be
blocked by personal items. For best reception, remove items from the
dashboard, such as radar detectors, cell phones, or loose articles.
• Metallic tinting or other aftermarket devices can interfere with the GPS
reception. Please see your dealer. Also see System Limitations on page 98.
I entered a destination, but the blue highlighted route and
voice guidance stopped, or turned into a blue/pink dashed line
before I got to my destination. Why is this?Your route has entered an unverified area. See Unverified Area Routing on
page 83.
The map rotates while I make turns. How can I stop this? Select the North-up map orientation by voice, or by touching the map
orientation icon on the map screen. See Map Orientation on page 55.
Sometimes, I cannot select between the North-up and
Heading-up map orientations. Why is this?The Heading-up map orientation can only be shown in the lower scales
(80 metre - 1.6 kilometre scales). See Map Scale on page 54.
While driving to my destination, the “time to go” display
sometimes increases, even though I am getting closer.The “Time to go” is based on actual road speeds. However if your speed
slows down when you encounter slower traffic, the system updates the
“Time to go” based on your actual speed to give you a better estimate of
arrival time.
The vehicle position icon on the map “lags” a short distance
behind, especially when I arrive at an intersection. Is there
anything wrong?No. When at an intersection, the system is unaware of the width of the
intersecting road. Large differences in vehicle position can indicate a
temporary loss of the GPS signal. See GPS Reception Issues on page 98.

Navigation System
Troubleshooting
Screen Error Message Solution
Navigation system is unable to acquire a proper GPS signal.
Make sure there is nothing on the dashboard blocking the GPS antenna
(aftermarket metallic window tinting or aftermarket devices placed on the
dashboard, like radar detectors, cell phones, or loose items). If the dashboard
is clear of objects, move the vehicle to an open space away from tall buildings,
trees, etc.
Navigation unit door is open or No DVD disc is inserted.
Please check system.Make sure that the navigation DVD disc is inserted with the label side up
and the navigation unit door is fully snapped closed (see page 104).
No DVD disc. Please check system. Check that the navigation DVD disc is inserted with the label side up (see
page 104). If the problem persists, see your dealer.
DVD disc reading error (unformatted). Please consult your
dealer.Check the DVD disc surface for deep scratches or other damage. Make sure
you are using a navigation DVD (turquoise-coloured [blue/green] label).
The system cannot read other mapping databases or video DVDs. If the
problem persists, see your dealer.
Display temp is too high. System will shut down until display
cools down.This message will appear briefly when the display temperature is too high,
and then the display will turn off until the temperature cools down. The
system will turn back on when the display cools down.Outside temperature is low. System will take a while to start up. The temperature is below -30°C and the navigation system has difficulty
reading the DVD. The system will start up when the temperature warms up.
Navigation system voice recognition cannot be activated when
another unit is using the audio system.Bluetooth® HandsFreeLink® can override the navigation system. Make sure
the HFL TALK button is not on when you press the NAVI TALK button, or the
message will appear. Simply press the HFL BACK button to resume control of
the navigation voice buttons.

Avoid Area - Areas you wish to avoid
can be entered into the system, and
will be avoided while routing.
Breadcrumbs - Off-road tracking dots
that can be followed on the map to
retrace your route back to a mapped
(digitized) road. This function can be

Compact Flash - A media chip that can
be used with a PC card adaptor to
play audio music files.
Database - This consists of the map
data, and the POI (Points of Interest)
data stored on the DVD.
DCA - Detailed Coverage Area. The
main metropolitan areas in the lower
48 U.S. states and Canada are
mapped to this level. See page 107
for a list of these areas.
Digital Audio Card Reader - The PC
card slot accepts a PCMCIA adaptor
with a flash memory chip (see
page 105).Digitized Road - A road that appears on
the navigation screen. The road name
will appear at the bottom of the
navigation screen. If the user drives
“off road,” the navigation system will
display “breadcrumbs,” depending on
how far you drive from a mapped
road.
Disclaimer Screen - Screen containing
cautionary information. It is meant to
be read carefully and acknowledged
by the client when using the

in this general location can interfere
with the GPS signal.
HFL - Bluetooth® HandsFreeLink®.

the vehicle and your Bluetooth-
compatible cell phone.
Icon - Symbol representing Points of
Interest (POI) that can be displayed
on the map.
Initialization - This refers to the period
needed to reacquire the GPS satellite

minutes with the vehicle out in an
open area.
