Frequently Asked Questions
Guidance, Routing
Problem Solution
The navi 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 page44.
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 page113 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 dash) may be blocked by
personal items. For best reception, remove items from the dash, such as
radar detectors, cell phone s, or loose articles.
 Metallic tinting or other after-marke t devices can interfere with the GPS
reception. Please see your dealer. Also see System Limitations on page98.
I entered a destination, but th e blue highlighted route and
voice guidance stopped, or turned into a blue/purple dashed
line before I got to my destination. Why is this? Your route has entered
an unverified area. See Unverified Area Routing on
page82.
The map rotates while I make a turns, Ho w can I stop this? Select the “North-up” ma p orientation by voice, or by touching the map
orientation icon on the map screen. See Map Orientation on page53.
Sometimes I can not select between the North-up, and
Heading-up map orientations, why is this? The “Heading-up” map orientation can
only be shown in the lower scales
(1/20 - 1 mile scales). See Map Scale on page52.
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 of 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 is vehicle position can indicate a
temporary loss of the GPS signal. See GPS Reception Issues on page98.

Frequently Asked Questions
Ordering a Navi DVD, Coverage, Map Errors, Limitations
Problem Solution
I want to buy a new DVD. How do I purchase one ? You cannot obtain a new DVD from the dealer. See Obtaining a Navigation
Update DVD on page103.
I want to order a DVD. How ca n I determine the DVD version
in my navigation system? The version is on the label of your DVD. It starts with “Ver:.” See
Changing
the DVD on page104.
I got a Navi DVD from a “friend,” but it does not work. Why? Your vehicle was designed to use a white DVD. DVDs with different
colored labels, or from different manuf acturers, will not operate correctly.
Always obtain DVDs from the DVD order desk. See page103.
When is my city going to become part of a fully verified
detailed coverage area? The mapping database vendor is cons
tantly revising map coverage. See
page113 for ways to obtain the latest detailed coverage information.
Will the navigation system work outside North America? The navigation system contains maps only for the lower 48 states, and portions of southern Canada. The system will not work in Mexico, Hawaii,
Alaska, or overseas. Canada coverage is limited. See Map Coverage on
page105.
Can I play video DVDs in my navigation sy stem? No. The navigation system is desi gned only to read the white DVD provided
with your vehicle. Map di scs for other vehicle manufacturers, or PC map
programs will not work.
I found some errors in the database. How do I report them? Mi nor errors are bound to occur in a large database. If you encounter major
errors, you can report them follow ing the instructions on page102.

pertaining to the voice recognition
navigation system.
Avoid Area - Areas you wish to avoid
can be entered into the system, and
will be avoided while routing.

(digitized) road. This function can be
turned on/off in Setup screen
(second).
Database - This consists of the map
data, and the POI (Points Of Interest)
data stored on the DVD.
DCA - Detailed Coverage Area. The
main metropolitan areas in the lower
48 states, and southern Canada are
mapped to this level. See page105
for a list of these areas. Digitized Road -
A road that appears on
the navigation screen. The road name
will appear at the bottom of the
navigation screen. If the user drives
“off road,” the navigation system will

in this general location can interfere
with the GPS signal.
Icon - Symbol representing Points of
