PRINCIPLES OF GPS

Your system directs you based on information derived from global
positioning satellites, road maps stored on the hard disk drive, sensors in
your vehicle and the desired destination. The system compiles all
necessary information to guide you to your selected destination. Space
satellites determine the vehicle’s current location and transmit position
and time signals to your car. If the vehicle has been parked for a long
period of time, the navigation function may be temporarily unresponsive.
The navigation system will operate reliably again once GPS reception is
available for a few minutes.

LIMITED GPS RECEPTION

System performance may be adversely affected if GPS reception is
interrupted or interference occurs over a distance of several miles. The
following are possible causes for GPS reception being interrupted. If the
vehicle is:

In multi-story parking garages

In tunnels and under bridges

Inside or in between buildings

By forests or tree-lined avenues

In heavy rain showers and thunderstorms

In valleys and in mountainous regions

Roads under cliffs

Ensure that you do not have any metal objects on the dashboard and
that if your windows are tinted, they use non-metal tinting instead of
metal oxide tinting. Both of these factors can also interrupt GPS
reception.

SYSTEM LIMITATIONS

Navigation system cold temperature operational limitations:

The

navigation system’s performance will be slower than normal at
temperatures lower than -5° F (-20° C). At temperatures lower than -22°
F (-30° C), you will be notified that the system has shut down key
elements to protect itself. Normal system operation will return once the
unit has warmed up enough to operate without damage.

Other conditions:

When calculating a route, the system doesn’t take

into consideration any of the following conditions:

Traffic Conditions
