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 page 93).

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.

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 page 74.
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 page 74.
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 page 74.
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 page 50.
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 page 80.
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 re garding PINs on page 80. 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 progr am displays. Why is this? The navigation system attempts to generate the optimum route. See Changing the Routing Method on page 46.
Why is the street I’m on not s hown on the map? It has been here for more than a year. The mapping database is constantly undergoing revision. See page 103 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 th e 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 page 98.
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 page 83.
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 page 55.
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 page 54.
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 page 98.

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 re placement 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 auto matically 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 page 94.
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 94.
My state does not observe dayli ght saving time. How do I turn off this feature? You can turn off this feature. See page 93.
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 93.
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 93.
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 94). 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 93 for more information.
