Navigation System 101
System Initialization
System Initialization
If for any reason, you lose power to the
navigation system (like the battery was
disconnected), the navigation system
will require initialization. Once
completed, your system will be ready to
use.
This initialization requires the
following:
• Entry of the 4-digit anti-theft security
code to “unlock” the navigation
system.
• GPS initialization (may not be needed
depending on the length of time the
system was without power).
• Map matching to align the GPS
coordinates to a place on the map
(displays current street at the bottom
of the map).
Entering the Security Code
If the battery goes dead or is
disconnected for any reason, you will
have to enter a security code for both the
audio system and the navigation system
before you can use it again.
When you purchased the vehicle, you
should have received two cards that
have the audio and navigation system’s
security codes and serial numbers. Keep
these cards in a safe place in case you
need the codes. If you lose the cards,
you must obtain the security codes from
your dealer.
Enter the four-digit security code. If you
have entered it correctly, the display
changes to the Disclaimer screen. If
you make a mistake, the system will
display “INCORRECT PIN.” Re-enter
your 4-digit security code. You have ten
chances to enter the correct code. If all
ten are incorrect, turn the ignition to
OFF, then back to ON (II) to have ten
more chances to enter the correct code.
Follow the instructions in the vehicle
Owner’s manual to enter the 5-digit
audio code. The navigation voice will
not operate if the audio code is not
entered.
NOTE:
The anti-theft security code is unrelated
to your optional Navigation system PIN
(for Personal or Home Address).
