Going Off the Route
If you leave the calculated route,
“Recalculating...” is displayed at the top
of the screen. The system will
recalculate the route from your current
location and direction to the desired
destination, and then give you a new
route instruction. This is done
automatically if you have set
Rerouting to Automatic on the
Setup screen (second) (see page81).
If the Rerouting option in Setup is set
to Manual , “Off route” appears at the

The map screen starts displaying a
series of dots (breadcrumbs) to show the
path you have taken if Off-road
Tracking on the Setup screen (second)
is set to On (see page89). By following the dots, you can
backtrack to the mapped road you
originally left. “Breadcrumbs” may
occasionally be displayed in urban
areas, such as larg
e parking lots in
shopping malls, or in new subdivisions
where the roads are not yet in the
database. In other cases, you may see
dots if the system temporarily goes off
route, like in a parking garage where the
GPS signal is unavailable.
These dots appear only in the 1/20, 1/8,
1/4, and 1/2 mile (or the 80, 200, 400,
and 800 meter) map scales.
Use the ZOOM buttons to change scales
if necessary.
Tracking continues for approximately
150 miles; dots at the beginning of the
trail will start disappearing when you
exceed that distance . When you reach a
mapped road, th e system stops
displaying dots.

System Setup
Correct Vehicle Position
The system relies on satellites for
positioning information. Buildings,
tunnels, and other objects can block or
reflect these signals, requiring the
system to use “dead reckoning” to
determine your location and direction.
This can sometimes lead to small errors
in positioning, such as showing you on
an adjacent street.
NOTE:
Using this function to adjust vehicle
position is not recommended. When the
system acquires a GPS signal, it will
automatically place the vehicle in the
correct location.If you choose to do this, follow these
steps:
1. Stop the vehicle.
2. Select
Adjust, and the system will
display a map adjustment screen.
3. Use the ZOOM buttons and the
joystick to move the location
arrowhead to the correct location.
Touch the arrow buttons on the
bottom of the screen to rotate the
direction arrows so the vehicle
position is pointin g in the correct
direction. NOTE:
If you continually have to do this, there
are either problems in the database or
GPS reception problems. See
Accessories Precautions
on page5.
4. When you have finished, press the joystick or select Done to return to
the previous screen.
5. As you drive, the current road will be displayed at the bottom of the screen.

Rearview Camera
Your vehicle is equipped with a
rearview camera as shown in the
illustration.
Whenever you shift to R (Reverse) with
the ignition switch in the ON (II)
position, the rear view is shown on the
navigation screen. For the best image,
always keep the rearview camera lens
clean, and be sure it is not covered.
Since the rearview camera display area
is limited, you should always back up
slowly and carefully, and look behind
you for obstacles.
Rearview Camera Brightness
Adjustment
When the vehicle is in reverse, the touch
screen and navigation “hard” buttons
are locked out, except the ZOOM
buttons. Touching the “ ▼” or “ ▲”
button allows you to adjust the
brightness of the rearview camera
image. This brightness adjustment is
independent of the screen brightness
adjustment in Setup.
NOTE:
 The camera brightness cannot be adjusted by voice control.
 Slight delays can occur when switching to the ca mera image, or
switching back to the map/menu
screen. This is normal.

Customer Assistance
PC Card Operation
A PC card with WMA or MP3 audio
files can be played through the audio
system and controlled using the
navigation voice control system. PC
card (PCMCIA) adaptors and various
media chips can be purchased at any
computer store. Tested media chips
include Compact Flash and SD media,
up to 2GB. Other media types and
storage capacities may work, but have
not been tested. Hard disc drive type
media are not recommended because
they can fail in a hot vehicle. See the
FAQs section for additional
information.
Inserting the PC Card
Ensure that the PCMCIA PC card
adaptor contains the media chip, and
that the card adaptor is fully inserted in
the slot, otherwise the display door will
not close. Once the card is inserted and
the door closed, ther e is a delay while
the system reads the tag information
(the folders, song titles, etc.). Once the
tag information is read, the “CARD” or
“TRACK LIST” buttons will function.
For more information on the search
feature, see the audio section of the
vehicle Owner’s manual.
Voice Control of PC Card
Functions
The navigation voice control system can
be used to select the first 30 tracks
directly by using the command, “Card
play track X” (X=1-30). Additional
voice commands allow the card tracks,
artists, and albums to be played in a
random, repeat, or scan mode. See the
complete list of “Card” voice
commands starting on page142.
CD/CD-R Operation
A CD or a burned CD-R with MP3 or
WMA media files can be played by the
audio system and controlled using
navigation voice commands. The
display door will not close with a
partially inserted CD in the slot. Once
the display closes, there may be a slight
delay before the “CD” or “TRACK
LIST” buttons function. This is because
the system has to read the tag
information (artist, album, and track
names) to allow searches to function.
For more information on the search
feature, see the audio section of the
vehicle Owner’s manual.
NOTE:
Ensure that burned CD-R discs do not
have “stick-on” paper labels. The label
adhesive can melt in a hot vehicle, and
allow the label to curl up and jam the
CD mechanism. Use a felt-tipped
marker to label your CD-R discs.
