Map Mode
Press the green bar in the upper right
area of the touchscreen to view map
mode. Map mode shows advanced
viewing comprised of both 2D city
maps as well as 3D landmarks (when
available).
2D city maps show detailed outlines
of buildings, visible land use and land
elements and detailed railway
infrastructure for the most essential
cities around the globe. These maps
also contain features such as town
blocks, building footprints, and
railways.
3D landmarks appear as clear, visible
objects which are typically
recognizable and have a certain
tourist value. The 3D landmarks
appear in 3D map mode only.
Change the appearance of the map
display by repeatedly pressing the
arrow button in the upper left corner
of the screen. It toggles between three
different map modes; Heading up,
North up, and 3D. Heading up (2D map) always
shows the direction of forward
travel to be upward on the
screen. This view is available for map
scales up to 2.5 miles (4 kilometers).
For larger map scales, this setting is
remembered, but the map is shown
in North up only. If the scale returns
below this level, then Heading up is
restored. North up (2D map) always
shows the northern direction
to be upward on the screen. 3D map mode
provides an
elevated perspective of the
map. This viewing angle can
be adjusted and the map can
be rotated 180 degrees by dragging
your finger along the shaded bar with
arrows at the bottom of the map. Re-centering the map
can
be done by pressing this icon
whenever you scroll the map
away from your vehicle's current
location.

If your vehicle is equipped with the SD
card navigation feature, you have the
ability to enter in a street address
using a feature called One-Shot
Destination Street Address. When
you say either "Navigation destination
street address" or "Destination street
address", the system asks you to say
the full address. The system displays
an example on-screen. You can then
speak the address naturally, such as
"One two three four Main Street,
Anytown".

Be sure to ask your dealership service
advisor or technician about the
multi-point vehicle inspection. It is a
comprehensive way to perform a
thorough inspection of your vehicle.
Your checklist gives you immediate
feedback on the overall condition of
your vehicle.
Normal Scheduled
Maintenance
Intelligent Oil-Life Monitor®
Your vehicle is equipped with an
Intelligent Oil-Life Monitor that
determines when you should change
the engine oil based on how your
vehicle is used. By using several
important factors in its calculations,
the monitor helps reduce the cost of
owning your vehicle and reduces
environmental waste at the same
time.
This means you do not have to
remember to change the oil on a
mileage-based schedule. Your vehicle
lets you know when an oil change is
due by displaying ENGINE OIL
CHANGE DUE or OIL CHANGE
REQUIRED in the information display.
The following table provides
examples of vehicle use and its
impact on oil change intervals. It is a
guideline only. Actual oil change
intervals depend on several factors
and generally decrease with severity
of use. When to expect the OIL CHANGE REQUIRED message
