Guidance, Routing

Problem
Solution
The navigation system does not route me the same way I would go or the same way as other mapping systems would.
The navigation system attempts to generate the optimal route. You can change the route preferences used when calculating a route.
The street I’m on is not shown on the map screen.
The mapping database is constantly undergoing revision.
The vehicle position icon is not following the road.
  • This is normal. The signals received from the GPS satellites are extremely weak and can easily be interrupted or interfered with as your vehicle travels near tall buildings or in tunnels. Check your vehicle's surroundings for anything that may be blocking the reception.
    If this happens frequently and there is no obstruction that is interfering with the reception, please see your dealer.
  • Metallic tinting or other aftermarket devices can interfere with GPS reception. Please consult your dealer.
How do I stop the map from rotating as I drive along?
  1. Press the button and then select Navigation.
  2. Check that the map orientation is set to (Heading-up) or (3D map).
  3. Select and to select (North-up) on left side of the map.
The “Arrival time” display sometimes increases even though I am getting closer to my destination.
The “Arrival time” is based on the speed limit on each road. Depending on the traffic conditions, the “Arrival time” may be calculated to be earlier or later.
My elevation (shown when I display the current position) seems to fluctuate even though my elevation has not changed.
This is normal. The elevation can vary ±100 ft (30 m) due to GPS calculation errors.
My elevation is missing on the “current position” screen.
The elevation is only displayed if the GPS antenna can receive signals from at least four satellites. Try moving the vehicle into an open area. The elevation is also not displayed if the calculated elevation is zero or below sea level.
