mode the ignition is in, even if the ignition is
turned off.
Press the button to make the front and rear turn
signal lamps ash on and off. Press the button
again to turn the ashers off.

There is also a sensor located behind the front
bumper. This sensor reads the outside air
temperature and helps maintain the temperature
inside the vehicle. The outside temperature will be
displayed in the navigation system only when
the engine is running. Any cover on the front of the
vehicle could give a false reading of the
temperature.
If the outside temperature goes up, the display
temperature will not change until:
The vehicle’s speed is above 15 mph
(24 km/h) for ve minutes.
The vehicle’s speed is above 32 mph
(51 km/h) for two and one-half minutes.
These delays prevent false readings. If the
temperature goes down, the outside temperature
will be shown when you start the vehicle. If it
has been turned off for less than three hours, the
temperature will be recalled from the previous
vehicle operation.
There is also an inside temperature sensor
located to the left of the ignition button. The
automatic climate control system uses this sensor
to receive information, so if you block or cover
it, the system will not function properly.
Defogging and Defrosting
Fog on the inside of windows is a result of high
humidity (moisture) condensing on the cool window
glass. This can be minimized if the climate control
system is used properly. There are two modes to
clear fog or frost from your windshield. Use the
oor/defog mode to clear the windows of fog or
moisture and warm the passengers. Use defrost to
remove fog or frost from the windshield more
quickly.
-(Floor/Defog):Press the mode button until the
defog mode appears on the display. This mode
directs the air between the windshield, oor outlets
and side windows. When you select this mode,
the system turns off recirculation and runs the air
conditioning compressor unless the outside
temperature is near or below freezing.
1(Defrost):Press this button to direct most of
the air to the windshield, with some air directed
to the side windows. In this mode, the system will
automatically turn off the recirculation and run
the air conditioning compressor, unless the outside
temperature is near or below freezing. Do not
drive the vehicle until all the windows are clear.

Audio Steering Wheel Controls
Some audio controls
can be adjusted at the
steering wheel. They
include the following:
g(Voice Recognition):Your vehicle has the
Navigation System. Press this button to initiate
voice recognition. See “Voice Recognition” in the
Navigation System manual for more information.
SRCE (Source):Press this button to switch
between FM1, FM2, AM, or XM1 or XM2
(if equipped), CD, or DVD.
+ SEEK:Press the seek plus button to go to the
next radio station and stay there. The system
will only seek radio stations with strong
frequencies.
When the seek plus button is pressed and held for
two seconds, the system will scan the radio
stations that are in the selected band. If listening
to a CD, the system will advance to the next
track of that particular CD.
>(Mute):Press this button to silence the
system. Press this button again, or any other radio
button, to turn the sound on.

Getting Started
Before you begin to operate the navigation system,
read this manual thoroughly to become familiar with
it and to understand how the system works.
Keeping your mind on the drive is important for safe
driving. SeeDefensive Driving on page 322for more
information. Get familiar with your vehicle’s
navigation system so you can use it with less effort
and take full advantage of its features. Your
navigation system includes not only navigation, but
also audio functions. While your vehicle is parked:
Familiarize yourself with all of its controls: hard
keys on the faceplate and touch-sensitive
screen buttons.
Familiarize yourself with its operation.
Set up your audio by presetting your favorite
stations, setting the tone, and adjusting the
speakers. Then, when driving conditions
permit, you can tune to your favorite stations
using the presets and steering wheel controls
(if equipped).
Set up the navigation features that can only be
done before you begin driving, such as entering
an address or a preset destination.Entering a destination or alphanumeric text
requires many steps, so you can only perform
these operations when the vehicle is in PARK (P).
You will notice that touch-sensitive screen
buttons leading to the alphanumeric keyboard are
dimmed out while driving.
Other functions may also be locked out while
driving and they too will appear grayed out on the
screen — but all functions are available when
parked. Some functions can be performed while
driving, as long as you can do so without diverting
too much of your attention from your driving.
{CAUTION:
This system provides you with a far greater
access to audio stations and song listings.
Giving extended attention to entertainment
tasks while driving can cause a crash and
you or others can be injured or killed.
Always keep your eyes on the road and
your mind on the drive — avoid engaging
in extended searching while driving.
234

{CAUTION:
Looking at the moving map on the
navigation screen frequently or for too
long while driving can cause a crash and
you or others can be injured or killed.
Keep your eyes and mind on the road and
avoid looking too long or too often at the
moving map on the navigation screen.
Use the voice guidance directions
whenever possible.
The navigation system allows you to do the
following:
Plan a route with provided turn-by-turn route
and map guidance with voice prompts. See
Plan Route on page 249for more information.
Select a destination using various methods
and choices.
Receive broadcast announcements on traffic
and emergency alert communications.The information in the system may not always be
complete. Road conditions such as prohibited
turns, detours, and construction zones, change
frequently. It is important to consider whether you
can follow the directions given by the system
for the current conditions.
When getting started, you may set the navigation
system to your preference using various options.
You will also need to know how to perform various
functions to begin route guidance. Reference
the following topics for further information:
To adjust screen appearance, language, clock,
English/metric measurements, or other
options, see “Main Audio Menu” under
Navigation Audio System on page 285.
To adjust voice guidance volume or other
navigation settings, seeSetup Menu on
page 243.
