Getting Started
Before you begin to operate the navigation system, read
this manual thoroughly to become familiar with it and to
understand how the system works.
Keeping your mind on the drive is important for safe
driving. See “Defensive Driving” in the Index of your
vehicle’s owner manual for more information. Get familiar
with your vehicle’s navigation system so you can use it
with less effort and take full advantage of its features.
Your navigation system includes not only navigation,
but also audio functions. While your vehicle is parked:
•Familiarize yourself with all of its controls: hard keys
on the faceplate and touch-sensitive screen buttons.
•Familiarize yourself with its operation.
•Set up your audio by presetting your favorite stations,
setting the tone, and adjusting the speakers. Then,
when driving conditions permit, you can tune to your
favorite stations using the presets and steering wheel
controls (if equipped).
•Set up the navigation features that can only be
done before you begin driving, such as entering
an address or a preset destination.
1-4

Entering a destination or alphanumeric text requires
many steps, so you can only perform these operations
when the vehicle is in PARK (P). You will notice
that touch-sensitive screen buttons leading to the
alphanumeric keyboard are dimmed out while driving.
Other functions may also be locked out while driving and
they too will appear grayed out on the screen — but
all functions are available when parked. Some functions
can be performed while driving, as long as you can
do so without diverting too much of your attention from
your driving.
{CAUTION:
This system provides you with a far greater
access to audio stations and song listings.
Giving extended attention to entertainment
tasks while driving can cause a crash and you
or others can be injured or killed. Always keep
your eyes on the road and your mind on the
drive — avoid engaging in extended searching
while driving.
{CAUTION:
Looking at the moving map on the navigation
screen frequently or for too long while driving
can cause a crash and you or others can be
injured or killed. Keep your eyes and mind on
the road and avoid looking too long or too
often at the moving map on the navigation
screen. Use the voice guidance directions
whenever possible.
The navigation system allows you to do the following:
•Plan a route with provided turn-by-turn route
and map guidance with voice prompts.
•Select a destination using various methods
and choices.
•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.
1-5

Each time you start your vehicle and turn on the
navigation system by touching the map hard key, you will
see this screen. You can touch I agree to proceed into the
system, or the globe symbol in the lower left corner of the
screen to change the language of the system. For more
information on changing the language, see
Personalization on page 5-2.
When getting started you may set the navigation system
to your preference using various options. To do so,
reference the following topics:
•To adjust screen appearance, see “Screen
Appearance” under Configure Menu on page 2-52.
•To adjust the clock and other time options, see
“Clock” under Configure Menu on page 2-52.
•To plan a route, see Destination on page 2-37.
