DESCRIPTION
WARNING: This vehicle contains mercury added devices added by the manufacturer: navigation display. Remove devices before vehicle
disposal. Upon removal of devices, please reuse, recycle, or dispose of as hazardous waste.
NAVIGATION
A navigation system with a screen located in the instrument cluster is an available option on this model.
A five inch (127 mm) Thin Film Transistor (TFT) screen mounted in the instrument cluster projects color navigation information into the center of the
speedometer. The information includes maps, turn identification, selection menus and instructions. The system includes a variety of choices for selecting
destinations and routes.
The navigation system is operated using push-buttons located in the instrument panel switch pod. The seven push-buttons have the following labels:
NAV, ENTER, CANCEL and four scroll arrows (left, right, up and down). For a description of the instrument panel switch pod See: Integrated
Accessory Switch Assembly/Description and Operation/Description.
The information is displayed in map format, as turn-by-turn instruction or a combination of the two. The system also provides audio prompts for turns
through the vehicle's audio system, overriding all other audio outputs (except hands free cellular system) to the front speakers that are active at the same
time. Spoken prompts are recordings of a human voice.
For diagnostic information on the instrument panel switch pod See: Integrated Accessory Switch Assembly/Testing and Inspection.
TELECOMMUNICATIONS
A hands-free cellular system is an available option on this vehicle. It uses Bluetooth(TM) technology to provide wireless communication between the
operator's compatible cellular telephone and the vehicle's on-board receiver.
The system uses voice recognition technology to control operation. The incoming voice is broadcast through the vehicle's radio speakers, automatically
overriding any other audio signals on the speakers when the hands-free system is in use. A microphone in the rearview mirror picks up vehicle occupant's
voices. If a call is in progress when the ignition is switched off, the hands-free system will continue to operate for up to 45 seconds as part of the
Accessory Relay Delay function. Thereafter, the call can continue on the hand-held telephone.
The center console front storage compartment includes a cellular telephone holder, but the system will communicate with a telephone that is anywhere
within the vehicle. However, covering the hand held phone or the hands-free phone module with a metal object may block the signal. The system will
recognize up to seven telephones, each of which is given a spoken identification by the user during the setup process. The system includes Spanish voice
recognition in addition to English.
Two buttons on the rearview mirror, identified with ISO icons, control the system: A "phone" button turns the system on and off; a "voice recognition"
(or voice command) button prompts the hands-free system to listen for a voice command.
