Mazda CX-7 Navigation System User manual

•Travel, journey, explore, zoom-zoom. You’ll always know
where you’re headed, wherever you go.
•Never read an old-fashioned paper map again. With a
DVD map database of the entire country and GPS satellites
displaying your exact location at any given moment, you can
go anywhere. And, with a 7-inch touch screen plus voice
command recognition, this hi-tech navigation system is both
safe and easy to use.
•Need to know where to exit for local attractions? No
problem. The Mazda Navigation System can pinpoint millions
of points of interest in over 40 different categories and get
you there, providing both audible and visual guidance. When
you’re looking for entertainment, find restaurants, golf
courses and other local attractions. Even in a strange city,
you’ll feel more secure with directions to everything from
police stations to gas stations. As an added convenience,
get instant directions to ATM’s, airports, or even hotels and
shopping.
Automatic Rerouting
Your route will automatically recalculate if you miss a turn or
depart from the original guidance
Turn List Mode
When selected, the navigation system displays turn-by-turn
information on one half of the screen, and the map on the other
Voice Guidance
Audible directions given through the stereo speakers alert
you of your next maneuver; press the Voice button and say
“Repeat” to hear the last command given
Zoom
Choose from 13 scales/levels of magnification; a zoom
magnification level of less than one mile is required to show
icons on the map
Touch Screen
Control most aspects of the navigation system with your
fingertips, using the 7-inch high-definition touch screen
Your vehicle’s navigation system is equipped with a Voice
Recognition function for added safety and convenience. This
feature allows you to control many aspects of the system
using only your voice. To initiate voice recognition the VOICE
button on the steering wheel must be pressed. Once engaged,
the system will beep and wait for your response if additional
information is necessary.
•The Map Data DVD contains navigable road data for all of
the continental United States and parts of Canada. This road
data includes information such as city names, street names,
and over 150 attributes associated with each road segment.
One-way streets, turn restrictions, and medians are all
included attributes in your Map Data DVD.
•The Map Database is continually updated by NAVTEQ to
provide additional coverage, and account for changes in
both the road network and points of interest. Purchasing
map updates when available is recommended to ensure your
system operates using the most current information.
•Map and software version numbers can be found by entering
the Navigation Set Up menu, then selecting Calibration and
Map Version. To get more information about the Map Data
and/or updates, contact the Mazda Customer Assistance
Center at 800.222.5500.

I can’t find my destination address?
Check that you have selected the correct search area for your
destination address. Also ensure that you have selected the
correct region to search on the “Destination Entry” screen.
(see Search Area of this guide). Due to changes in the road
network, i.e. expansion of home sub-divisions, it is possible the
address is not contained on your map.
Why doesn’t my system route me the way I
expect to go?
Delete any old route points still stored as destinations or
waypoints by selecting stored locations. Check that you do
not have any avoid areas saved along your chosen route. Also
check your Route Option settings.
Why can’t I see the navigation display with my
sunglasses on?
The display uses polarization technology, and may not be
viewed with some polarized sunglasses. Try wearing non-
polarized sunglasses while in your vehicle.
How many languages are available?
You can select from 3 languages - English, Spanish or French.
Manage your language selection through the Navigation
Set-Up menu.
How do I synchronize my information clock
to the navigation clock?
Ensure the vehicle is in an open area where GPS signal can
be received. To verify GPS signal, turn the ignition on and
look for the blue “GPS” icon in the top left corner of the
navigation screen. If no “GPS” icon appears, the vehicle
may need to be driven. Once a GPS signal has been
established, verify that the information display clock
time matches the navigation system clock.
