Frequently Asked Questions
When I drive at night, the screen is bright and will not switch
to the night display mode. Why?
Verify the following: The nighttime dash brightness control is not set to
maximum, and
Map Color
in Setup is set to
Black
for Night. See
Switching Display Mode Manually on page
105
.
The daytime
map
screen is dark like the night display mode,
and it is hard to see. Why?
Verify the following: The
Map Color
in Setup is set to
White
for Day. See
Switching Display Mode Manually on page
105
.
Once I press the
Display Mode
button
, the screen no
longer automatically switches between day and night display
modes. Why is this?
This is normal. Once you press the
Display Mode
button
, you are
manually controlling the display mode. Your manual display mode setting is
canceled the next time the vehicle is started.
How can I input my destination using map coordinates?
The navigation system was not designed for this. However, you can view
the coordinates of an address by pushing in on the
Interface Dial
, selecting
Show Icon on Map
, and moving the
Interface Dial
left to select
Current Location
. See Map Screen Legend on page

.
How do I change or remove my PIN?
Go to “Personal Information” in the
Setup
screen (second), and select
PIN
Number
. Enter your existing PIN, and then you have the choice to change
or remove the PIN. See page

.
I forgot the PIN. How do I reset it?
PINs are optional. See information regarding PINs on page
18
. Your dealer
can reset the PIN for you.
I changed my setup settings, but they are not saved when I
restart the vehicle.
Verify that your Remote Keyless Entry is linked (the MID shows “Welcome
driver 1” or “Welcome driver 2”). See page
18
for additional information.
I cannot access my Calendar or Address Book. Why?
CALL
is not available on the

screen.
Why?
Your phone is not paired to HFL, or if your phone is paired, it is in use or
does not have good coverage; press the
