When I drive at night, the screen is bright and will not switch
to the night display mode. Why?
The system thinks it is in
Day
display mode. Verify the following: The
display mode in Setup is set to
Auto
, the dash brightness is not set to
maximum (must adjust with headlights on), and
Map Color
in Setup is set
to
Black
for Night. See Display on page
73
.
The daytime
map
screen is dark like the night display mode,
and it is hard to see. Why?
Verify the following: The display mode in Setup is set to
Auto
, and
Map
Color
in Setup is set to
White
for Day. See Display on page
73
.
During the day, I turned on the lights because it started to
rain, but the screen went dark. How can I make it still display
day mode?
Adjust the dash brightness (+) button (with headlights on) to full brightness.
Remember to set it back to a medium setting, or at night, the screen will be
bright. See Display on page
73

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 touching the vehicle position icon on the
map. See Map Screen Legend on page

How do I change or remove my PIN?
Go to “Personal Information” in the
Setup

PIN

User 1

User 2

you have the choice to change or remove the PIN. See page

I forgot the PIN for Home, or the PIN for personal addresses
(User 1 or User 2). How do I reset it?
