your destination. No guidance is
provided, and there are no directions to
the destination.
With Unverified Area Routing On ,
a blue/pink route line is shown for

any portions of unverified turns in blue/
pink dashes.
These guidance maneuvers are only a
suggestion. You should always confirm
that the maneuver is possible. A

any unverified roads in a blue color,
with pink arrows pointing to the next
maneuver. Unverified Area Routing “Off”

Frequently Asked Questions
Guidance, Routing
Problem Solution
The navi does not route me the same way I would go, or the
way some other mapping progr am displays. Why is this? The navigation system attempts to
generate the optimum route. See
Changing the Routing Method on page45.
Why is the street I’m on not shown on the map? It has been
here for more than a year. The mapping database is
constantly undergoing revision. See page106 for
ways to obtain the latest de tailed coverage information.
The vehicle position icon is not following the road and the
“GPS icon” text in the upper left hand corner of the screen is
white or missing.  The GPS antenna (located under the center of the dash) may be blocked by
personal items. For best reception, remove items from the dash, such as
radar detectors, cell phone s, or loose articles.
 Metallic tinting or other after-marke t devices can interfere with the GPS
reception. Please see your dealer. Also see System Limitations on page97.
I entered a destination, but th e blue highlighted route and
voice guidance stopped, or turned into a blue/purple dashed
line before I got to my destination. Why is this? Your route has entered
an unverified area. See Unverified Area Routing on
page81.
The map rotates while I make a turns, Ho w can I stop this? Select the “North-up” ma p orientation by voice, or by touching the map
orientation icon on the map screen. See Map Orientation on page54.
Sometimes I cannot select between the North-up, and
Heading-up map orientations, why is this? The “Heading-up” map orientation can
only be shown in the lower scales
(1/20 - 1 mile scales). See Map Scale on page53.
While driving to my destinati on, the “time to go” display
sometimes increases even though I am getting closer. The “Time to go” is based on actual
road speeds. However if your speed
slows down when you encounter slower traffic, the system updates the
“Time to go” based of your actual spee d to give you a better estimate of
arrival time.
The vehicle position icon on the map “lags” a short distance
behind especially when I arrive at an intersection. Is there
anything wrong? No, when at an intersection, the syst
em is unaware of the width of the
intersecting road. Large differences is vehicle position can indicate a
temporary loss of the GPS signal. See GPS Reception Issues on page97.

Frequently Asked Questions
Ordering a Navi DVD, Coverage, Map Errors, Limitations
Problem Solution
I want to buy a new DVD. How do I purchase one? You cannot obtain a new DVD from the dealer. See Obtaining a Navigation
Update DVD on page102.
I want to order a DVD. How ca n I determine the DVD version
in my navigation system? The version is on the label of your DVD. It starts with “Ver:.” See
Changing
the DVD on page103.
I got a Navi DVD from a “friend,” but it does not work. Why? Y our vehicle was designed to use a turquoise (blue/green) DVD. DVDs

operate correctly. Always obtain DVD s from the DVD order desk. See

When is my city going to become part of a fully verified
detailed coverage area? The mapping database vendor is constantly revising map coverage. See
page106 for ways to obtain the latest
detailed coverage information.

Alaska, or overseas. Canada coverage is limited. See Map Coverage on
page106.
Can I play video DVDs in my navigation system?No. The navigation sy stem is designed only to read the turquoise (blue/
green) DVD provided with your vehicle. Map discs fo r other vehicle
manufacturers, or PC map programs will not work.
I found some errors in the database. How do I report them? Mi nor errors are bound to occur in a large database. If you encounter major
