System Setup
Clock AdjustmentFrom the Setup screen (second), say or 
select  Clock Adjustment  and the 
following screen appears:
This screen allows y ou to set or adjust 
the following:
 Auto Daylight Saving Time  (Default = On)
 Auto Time Zone by GPS  (Default = On)
 DST (Daylight Saving Time)  Selection 
(change DST schedule)
 Time Adjustment (adjust your clock)
 Reset button (resets this screen’s 
settings to factory defaults)
Auto Daylight Saving TimeSets automatic daylight saving time  On 
or  Off . If set to  On, the clock will 
automatically “spring ahead” or “fall 
back” by one hour when a daylight 
saving time change occurs. If you reside 
in a state or area where daylight saving 
time is not used, then you may want to 
turn this feature off.
NOTE:
If you set Auto Daylight Saving Time to 
On , the daylight saving time function is 
activated even in an area that does not 
use daylight saving time.
The federal government mandated that 
starting in 2007, daylight saving time 
begins in March and ends in November 
instead of the old schedule from April to 
October. The schedules for the time changes are 
stored in the software and can be 
selected in the 
DST schedule 
selection  screen. Therefore, your clock 
will change based on the daylight saving 
time schedule.
NOTE:
The automatic clock setting feature 
relies on a satellite signal. It will not 
work correctly in Hawaii and Alaska.

Coverage Areas
Address and POI Entry ScreensWhen in Hawaii, the following 
differences occur for map, address, and 
POI selection:
 It is not possible to enter U.S. 
mainland addresses or scroll the map 
east to the U.S. mainland.
 Selection of the “State” is confined to  the state of Hawaii only.
 Entry of a destination address or POI  on an island other than your current 
island may result in a screen caution 
message. This is normal because 
there are no “ferry” routes between 
islands available in the database.
 If the “Guidance Prompts” setting on  the  Setup  screen is set to normal or 
maximum, street names will not be 
spoken in voice guidance commands.
Setup Screen DifferencesThe  Setup  screen differences are minor 
and are listed below. See the Setup 
section (page 77) for additional 
information.Routing and Guidance (Unverified 
Area Routing On/Off)This feature is unavailable. All roads 
displayed on the map are verified.Clock Adjust ScreenThere is no daylight saving time for 
Hawaii.  Auto Daylight Saving 
Time , Auto Time Zone by GPS , and 
DST Selection  will not be shown on 
the  Clock adjustment  screen. To test 
your adjustment, use the voice control 
system, and say “What time is it?” (see 
page 97).Bluetooth
® HandsFreeLink
® 
Operation
When pairing a cell phone to use the 
Bluetooth ® HandsFreeLink® feature, 
you may see a “Phone-Data 
Connection” screen. If so, do not 
complete this portion of the process.
Shipping a Vehicle To or From 
HawaiiAlthough the DVD in the vehicle 
contains maps for both U.S. mainland 
and Hawaii, the dealer must perform the 
selection of “U.S. mainland” or 
“Hawaii” for you. When the dealer 
makes the switch from U.S. mainland to 
Hawaii or vice versa, the system clears 
all user data. Make sure to record any 
personal information that you do not 
want to lose.
NOTE:
Shipping a vehicle from Hawaii to the 
U.S. mainland
 If you wish to receive XM audio you 
must call XM and set up an account 
at (800) 852-9696.
Shipping a vehicle from the U.S. 
mainland to Hawaii
 If a U.S. mainland-delivered vehicle  is shipped to Hawaii, there is no XM 
reception. See your Hawaii dealer to 
allow viewing of local Hawaii maps.
 The issues under “Operation in  Hawaii” above apply.
