Introduction
S–29–0023–3
Before you begin to operate this system, read this
manual thoroughly to become familiar with it and to
understand how the system works.
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.

1-3
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.

1-4
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. See “Zoom In/Out”
later in this section for more information on these keys.
Map Scales
The scale of a map can range from 1/32 of a mile
(0.05 km) to 128 miles (206 km).
