There are two screen display modes:
Day and Night . The recommended
setting is Auto, which automatically
switches the screen between Day and
Night modes as you turn the headlights
on or off.
You can select Day or Night mode to
override the Auto mode. This is a
useful feature for driver’s that like to
use headlights during the day, and want
to temporarily override Night mode.
However, the screen in Day mode will
be extremely bright at night.

When 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 Color in Setup is
set to Black for Night. See Display on page72.
The daytime map screen is dark like the night display mode,
and it is hard to see. Why? Verify the following: The disp
lay mode in Setup is set to Auto, and Map
Color in Setup is set to White for Day. See Display on page72.
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 (+) butt
on (with the headlights on) to full
brightness. Remember to set it back to a medium setting, or at night, the
screen will be bright. See Display on page72.
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 page49.
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. You then
have the choice to change or remove the PIN. See page78.
I forget 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 re
garding PINs on page78. Your dealer
can reset the PIN for you.
