The Navigation System allows you to do the following: D Plan a route with provided turn-by-turn route and map guidance with voice prompts. D Select a destination from various areas and choices (i.e. street addresses, intersections, marked points, points of interest, etc.). D Receive broadcast announcements on traffic and emergency alert communications. The information in the system may not always be complete. Road conditions, such as prohibited turns, detours and construction zones, change frequently. It is important to consider whether you can follow the directions given by the system for the current conditions. 1-2 Global Positioning System (GPS) The Navigation System determines the position of your vehicle by using satellite signals, various vehicle signals and map data. The Global Positioning System (GPS) locates the current position of your vehicle using signals sent by the United States Department of Defense GPS Satellites. While your vehicle is receiving signals from the satellites, GPS will appear on the map screen. However, at times, other interferences such as the satellite condition, road configuration, the condition of the vehicle and/or other circumstances can interfere with the system's ability to determine the accurate position of the vehicle. This system may not be available or interference may occur if any of the following are true: D Signals are obstructed by tall buildings, large trucks or a tunnel. D Metallic objects are located on the dashboard. D Satellites are being repaired or improved. D Aftermarket glass tinting has been applied to the vehicle's windshield. Do not apply aftermarket glass tinting to the vehicle's windshield or place metallic objects on the vehicle's dashboard. Glass tinting and metallic objects will interfere with the system's ability to receive GPS signals and may cause the system to malfunction. If you are experiencing a problem, see "Vehicle Positioning" and "Problems with Route Guidance" in the Index for more information. 1-3 Maps This section includes basic information that you need to know about the map database. The maps are stored on a DVD-ROM. The United States (excluding Alaska and Hawaii) and portions of Canada are contained in one disc. The United States map database includes the interstate freeways, state highways, country roads and major and general streets. Refer to the "Navigation System Map Disc" manual to view the explanation of map coverage. This manual will be in your map DVD case when the vehicle is delivered from the factory. When your vehicle is delivered from the factory, the dealer may have installed the map DVD. If the DVD was not installed in your vehicle when first purchased, use the following directions to load the DVD: 1. Turn the ignition switch to ON or ACCESSORY. 2. If already loaded, eject the map DVD or a CD from the slot. 3. Load the map DVD into the slot by inserting it partway. The system will pull it in. Once the DVD is inserted correctly, you will have the following two choices: D ENG (English) D FR (French) D I AGREE You can change the language to one of the two that are available by using the control pad located on the bottom left corner of the navigation system, to select a language and press the ENT button to choose the selection. Once a language is selected, select I AGREE to plan a route. The map will appear showing your current vehicle position. Map Adjustments The system allows you to adjust the scale of view on the map. Also, the map will scroll automatically based on the direction you are traveling. To view a larger or smaller scale of the map, press the Zoom In or Zoom Out symbol keys.
