Getting Started
• Adjust the dashboard and side vents
so air does not blow against the
microphone on the ceiling.
• If more than one person is speaking at the same time, the system may
misinterpret your command.
• Give a voice command in a clear, natural speaking voice without
pausing between words.
• Try to reduce any background noise.
• If you are still having trouble with the voice control sy stem, refer to Voice
Help on the INFO screen ( Main
Info.) or say “Help” while the
icon is displayed on the top left of the
screen.
NOTE:
The voice control system can only be
used in the driver’s seat because the
microphone unit removes noises from
the front passenger’s side.Selecting an Item (Button)
on the Screen
On most screens, there are items that
can be selected (like buttons with titles
such as OK or Return ). To select an
item on any screen, do one of the
following:
• Use the voice control system and say the name of the desired item. Almost
all selectable items on the screen,
including some listed items, are
recognized by the voice control
system.
• Move the highlighting to the desired item with the Interface Dial or its
knob , then push in on the Interface
Dial .
Tip:
If items are grayed out, this means that
they cannot be selected.
Selecting an Item in a List
To scroll through a list, do one of the
following:
• Rotate the Interface Dial knob to
scroll one item at a time.
• Use the voice control system to scroll page by page. For example, to scroll
up, say “Up” or “Previous.” To scroll
down, say “Next” or “Down.”
If you cannot find the desired name, or
have made an error, return to the
previous screen by pressing the
CANCEL or the BACK button on the
steering wheel.
To select the desired item in the list, do
one of the following:
• Use the voice control system, and say the item number of the desired item.

Frequently Asked Questions
Map and Features, Voice Operation, Entering Addresses
Problem Solution
Why does the Disclaimer screen need to be displayed every
time I start the car? I am the only driver. The
Disclaimer screen reminds you and your guest drivers to always
operate the navigation sy stem in a safe manner.
I tried entering an address, but th e city or street could not be
found. Is there any other way to route to the location? Some cities are lumped in with a major metro area. Try entering the street
first. In rural “unverified” areas or new subdivisions
, streets may be
missing, or only partiall y numbered. Try selecting the destination directly
from the map. See By Map Input on page46.
When I enter an address, some letters become grayed out. Is
this normal? Yes. As you enter each letter in an addr
ess or a point of interest (POI), the
system looks in the databa se to see what letters are possible and “grays out”
letters that do not apply.
How do I delete Personal Addre sses, Previous Destinations,
or the Home Address? This is done in the
SETUP screen ( Main Setup ), under “Personal
Information.” See page 90.
I cannot hear the navigation system voice. 1) Ensure that Volume in the SETUP screen (Main Setup ) is not OFF.
See page 90.
2) Go to “Basic Settings” in the SETUP screen ( Other), and set Voice
Recognition Tutor to ON. See page 99.
The voice control system is ha ving difficulty recognizing my
voice commands. Ensure that the vents are not blowing on the microphone on the ceiling, the
vehicle is as quiet as
possible, and you are using the correct command when
speaking (see Improving Voice Recognition on page14). Say “Help” at any
screen to see a list of the applicable voice commands. If the system cannot
recognize your command because of background noise, speak louder.
When the system pronounces the street name in the guidance
command or reads the destinati on address, it sounds strange.
What causes this? The basic guidance phrase uses a studio
-recorded voice, but the street name
is pronounced by the system us ing a machine-generated voice.
Consequently, the name may be misp ronounced or sound strange at times.
When I drive at night, the screen is bright and will not switch
to the night display mode. Why? Verify the following: Th
e nighttime dash brightness control is not set to
maximum, and Map Color in SETUP is set to Black for Night. See
Switching Display Mode Manually on page111.
