Display
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.

Unverified Area Routing
Allows you to receive turn-by-turn map and voice guidance in unverified areas when on route to a destination (see Map Overview
on page6). The chart below illustrates the rou ting differences with this setting On or Off.
Unverified Area Routing: Off (factory default) Unverified Area Routing: On
Decision:
Why choose
On or Off? The driver wishes to navi
gate manually by using the
navigation map and choosing the streets that lead to
the destination. The driver understands that
unverified roads may not be accurate, and can contain
errors in location, naming, and address range. The driver chooses to let the na
vigation system suggest possible
routing. The driver understands th at in some cases guidance may
not be appropria te. Unverified roads ma y not be accurate, and
can contain errors in location, naming, and address range.
What you
will see… A blue dotted vector line is displayed on the map that
continually points to your
destination. The driver
should stop and then use the ma p to select streets that
lead to the destination. A blue-pink dashed route line
highlights suggested unverified
streets on the map while traveling to your destination. This is in
sharp contrast to the normal blue route line displayed in verified
areas.

announcements, before and

118Navigation System
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 regarding PINs on page78. Your dealer
can reset the PIN for you.
