Area Routing On/Off)
This feature is unavailable. All roads
displayed on the map are verified.
Clock Adjust Screen
There is no daylight saving time for
Hawaii. Auto Daylight Saving
Time, Auto Time Zone by GPS , and
DST Selection will not be shown on
the Clock adjustment screen. To test
your adjustment, use the voice control
system, and say “What time is it?” (see
page92).
Shipping a Vehicle To or From
Hawaii
Although the DVD in the vehicle
contains maps for both U.S. mainland
and Hawaii, the dealer must perform the
selection of “U.S. mainland” or
“Hawaii” for you. When the dealer
makes the switch from U.S. mainland to
Hawaii or vice versa, the system clears
all user data. Make sure to record any
personal information that you do not
want to lose.

122Navigation System
When I drive at night, the screen
is bright and will not switch
to the night display mode. Why? The system thinks it is 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 headlights on), and Map Color in Setup is set
to Black for Night. See Display on page73.
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 page73.
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 (+) button
(with headlights on) to full brightness.
Remember to set it back to a medium set ting, or at night, the screen will be
bright. See Display on page73.
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, and then
you have the choice to change or remove the PIN. See page79.
I forgot 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 page79. Your dealer
can reset the PIN for you.

Frequently Asked Questions
Guidance, Routing
Problem Solution
The navigation does not route me the same way I would go, or
the way some other mapping program 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 page102 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 dashboard) may be
blocked by personal items. For best reception, remove items from the
dashboard, such as radar detector s, cell phones, or loose articles.
 Metallic tinting or other aftermarke 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/pink dashed line
before I got to my dest ination. Why is this? Your route has entered
an unverified area. See Unverified Area Routing on
page82.
The map rotates while I make turns. How can I stop this? Select the North-up map 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 orienta tions. Why is this? The Heading-up map orient
ation 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 on 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 in vehicle position can indicate a
temporary loss of the GPS signal. See GPS Reception Issues on page97.

Frequently Asked Questions
I insert a CD-R with music files, but the CD button or “CD”
voice commands do not work. What is wrong?  After inserting a CD-R with WMA or
MP3 files, a slight delay may occur
before the CD button operates. Th e system needs to read the tag
information (album, artist, and track na mes) to allow searches - this is
normal.
 Ensure that the music files on the CD-R are WMA or MP3 format. Other
formats are not recognized.
 Some WMA and MP3 files are copy pr otected, and require that the
copyright authentication files accompany the MP3/WMA files on the CD.
Note:
Never use CD-R discs with stick-on labels. The labels can curl and
jam the CD mechanism, requiring replacement of the navigation unit
and subsequent loss of all personal information.

Miscellaneous Other Questions
Problem Solution
My clock frequently changes forward and backward by one
hour. Why is this? The clock is being automatically set based on your GPS location. If you live
and work on the boundary between two
time zones, you can turn off this
feature. See page93.
When driving near a time zone border, the time changes even
though I am not near the time zone. Why is this? The time zone borders are only appr
oximated in the system. Depending on
the geography of the time zone boundary, the switch to a different zone can
be erratic. See page
93.
My state does not observe dayli ght saving time. How do I turn
off this feature? You can turn off this feature. See page
92.
Daylight saving time occurred, but the navigation system did
not change time even though Setup shows Auto Daylight
Saving Time is On . Go to the Clock adjustment
screen in Setup and select DST Selection.
Ensure that the correct DST schedule is selected. For more information, see
Clock Settings on page
92.
The navigation system automatic daylight time feature is not
switching the navigation system clock on the correct dates.
Why is this? 1) Go to the
Clock adjustment screen in Setup and ensure that Auto
Daylight Saving Time is On .
2) The navigation system is designed to switch to daylight saving time
according to the months selected in the DST schedule selection screen.
Ensure that the appropriate schedule is selected. For more information,
see Clock Settings on page
92.
The navigation system clock switched by one hour for no
apparent reason. Wh at can cause this? 1) You may be driving near
a time zone boundary (see Auto Time Zone by
GPS on page
93).
2) The navigation system does not switc h between standard and daylight
saving time. Set Auto Daylight Saving Time to On on the Clock
adjustment screen in Setup, and ensure that the correct month switching
schedule is chosen on the DST schedule selection screen. See page
92
for more information.
