Quick Reference GuideTroubleshootingFor more Information (P283)
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 destination” display sometimes 
increase even though I am getting closer to my 
destination?
The “time to destination” is based on your actual road 
speed and traffic conditions to  give you a better estimate 
of arrival time.
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?
On the map screen, press   to display the Map Menu. 
Rotate  to select  Guidance Volume. Adjust the 
preferred volume level.
My battery was disconnected or went dead, and the 
navigation system is asking for a code. Where do I find it?
In most cases, you do not need to enter a code. Simply 
press and hold the   (Power) button for two seconds; 
the system should reactivate.
