Safety Warning
DIY auto repair can cause serious injury, fire, or vehicle damage. These guides are for informational purposes only. Always follow OEM torque specs, wear PPE, and consult a certified mechanic if you are unsure. You are solely responsible for your safety.
Navigation System
The vehicle navigation system guides the user to a pre-entered destination. No navigation map DVD is needed, as the map guidance information is stored in the ACM hard-drive. The ACM calculates route information based on Global Positioning System (GPS) data. The ACM also uses vehicle speed and transmission gear selected signals received through the MS-CAN to detect vehicle speed and direction, resulting in more accurate navigation tracking.
The navigation display is shown on the PDIM . Either the PDIM touchscreen or the buttons on the FCIM can be used to interact with the navigation system.
The compass heading is derived from the GPS antenna signal. There are no serviceable parts for the compass.
A voice recognition system allows the user to interface with the system without using the touchscreen. A microphone located in the auto-dimming interior mirror provides the voice recognition input. The microphone is shared with the SYNC system.
