Traffic Options
Read the following Options descriptions to understand
how the XM NavTraffic™ operates.
XM NavTraffic™(USA and Canada)
Vehicles with the navigation system have an
XM NavTraffic™receiver. XM NavTraffic™ is a
subscription service provided via XM™ Satellite Radio.
XM NavTraffic™ provides real-time traffic information
fully integrated to the navigation system to display
current traffic conditions for a driver ’s chosen route.
XM NavTraffic™ allows drivers to make the most
informed, timesaving routing decisions.
5-46

If the Traffic touch screen button is pressed or if an
attempt is made to turn on the traffic display in the
Navigation Setup Menu without a subscription, a
Caution screen displays indicating that XM traffic is
not activated.
Three types of traffic information for major roadways
are displayed on the navigation system:
.Unscheduled traffic incident data, such as
accidents and disabled vehicles
.Scheduled traffic incident data, such as road
construction and road closures
.Traffic flow information (rate of speed data)Traffic information is delivered to the vehicle by the
XM™
Radio satellites. XM NavTraffic™ makes it
possible for the navigation system to provide
continuously updated traffic information personalized
for a driver ’s needs.
XM NavTraffic™ currently broadcasts the traffic
information for many markets nationally, and the service
may be available in more cities in the future. Visit
xmnavtraffic.com for more details on local coverage.
A service fee is required in order to receive the
XM NavTraffic™ service.
Turning XM NavTraffic™ On and Off
To turn traffic on or off:
1. Press the CONFIG hard key, then press the CONFIG key repeatedly until Nav is selected or

Selecting Alert for Approaching Traffic Events
enables the system to show a pop-up screen that
notifies of possible traffic issues ahead.
When this feature is highlighted, while traveling
on a route, accidents located on the route are
indicated and can be avoided.
5-47

if travelling on a major interstate, the system lists events
immediately ahead on the interstate first. Then all other
traffic events follow. Not all traffic conditions may be
listed.
To view the traffic condition location and information on
the map:
1. Press the NAV key, then press the NAV keyrepeatedly until Traffic is selected, or touch the
Traffic screen button. A list of traffic conditions
with distance from the vehicle's current position
displays. An arrow may appear before the distance.
The arrow indicates the distance is a straight line
distance and it shows the direction of the event
from the current vehicle's position. If no arrow
appears, the distance indicates how far the event
is ahead on current Interstate highway or route.
While the vehicle is moving, the traffic list up or
down, scroll arrows are limited to a maximum of
four pages. No more than four pages of traffic
events may be viewed while the vehicle is moving.

and the related traffic event is avoided. After the new
route has been calculated, the navigation system goes
to the full map screen and shows the new route.
The Avoid button is only available if the event is on the
route ahead.
Traffic Voice Prompts
The traffic voice prompts are part of the current
navigation voice prompts. If the navigation voice
prompts are turned off, all traffic prompts are also
turned off.
If the voice prompts are on, whenever an Alert for
Approaching Traffic is displayed, the system gives the
related voice prompt. The content of the voice prompt
depends on actual traffic event data.
The RPT (Repeat) hard key is for navigation traffic
maneuvers only. It is not used to repeat traffic prompts.
During a traffic voice prompt, if RPT is pressed, the
current prompt playback cancels.

Global Positioning System (GPS)
The navigation system determines the position of the
vehicle by using satellite signals, various vehicle
signals, and map data.
At times, other interferences such as the satellite
condition, road configuration, the condition of the
vehicle and/or other circumstances can interfere with
the navigation system's ability to determine the accurate
position of the vehicle.
The GPS shows the current position of the vehicle
using signals sent by the GPS Satellites of the United
States Department of Defense. When the vehicle is not
receiving signals from the satellites, a symbol appears
on the map screen. Refer to Symbols on page 5‑17.
This system may not be available or interferences may
occur if any of the following are true:
.Signals are obstructed by tall buildings, trees, large
trucks, or a tunnel.
.Objects are located on the front dash of the
vehicle.
.Satellites are being repaired or improved.
.After-market glass tinting has been applied to the
vehicle's windshield.
