XM NavTraffic is a subscription service provided via XM™ Satellite Radio. XM NavTraffic provides real-time traffic information fully integrated to the navigation system to display current traffic conditions for a driver’s chosen route. XM NavTraffic allows drivers to make the most informed, timesaving routing decisions. If the Traffic touch screen button is pressed or if the traffic display in the Navigation Setup Menu is attempted to be turned on without a subscription, a warning screen displays indicating that XM traffic is not activated. 2-28 Three types of traffic information for major roadways are displayed on the navigation system: (cid:129) Unscheduled traffic incident data, such as accidents and disabled vehicles (cid:129) Scheduled traffic incident data, such as road construction and road closures Traffic ﬂow information (rate of speed data) Traffic information is delivered to the vehicle by the XM™ Radio satellites. XM NavTraffic makes it possible for the navigation system to provide continuously updated traffic information personalized for a driver’s needs. (cid:129) XM NavTraffic currently broadcasts the traffic information for many markets nationally, and the service may be available in more cities in the future. Visit xmnavtraffic.com for more details on local coverage. A service fee is required in order to receive the XM NavTraffic service. Turning XM NavTraffic™ On and Off To turn traffic on or off: 1.

At times, other interferences such as the satellite condition, road conﬁguration, the condition of the vehicle and/or other circumstances can interfere with the navigation system’s ability to determine the accurate position of the vehicle. The GPS shows the current position of the vehicle using signals sent by the GPS Satellites of the United States Department of Defense. When the vehicle is not receiving signals from the satellites, a symbol appears on the map screen. Refer to Symbols on page 2-7. This system may not be available or interferences may occur if any of the following is true: (cid:129) Signals are obstructed by tall buildings, trees, large trucks, or a tunnel. (cid:129) Objects are located on the rear shelf of the vehicle. (cid:129) Satellites are being repaired or improved. (cid:129) After-market glass tinting has been applied to the vehicle’s rear windshield. Notice: Do not apply after-market glass tinting to the vehicle’s windows. Glass tinting interferes with the system’s ability to receive GPS signals and causes the system to malfunction. The window might have to be replaced to correct the problem. This would not be covered by the warranty. For more information if the GPS is not functioning properly, see If the System Needs Service on page 2-40 and Problems with Route Guidance on page 2-40. 2-38 Vehicle Positioning At times, the position of the vehicle on the map may be inaccurate due to one or more of the following reasons: The road system has changed. The vehicle is driving on slippery road surfaces such as in sand, gravel, and/or snow. The vehicle is traveling on winding roads. The vehicle is on a long straight road. The vehicle is approaching a tall building or a large vehicle. The surface streets run parallel to a freeway. The vehicle has just been transferred by a vehicle carrier or a ferry. The current position calibration is set incorrectly. The vehicle is traveling at high speed. The vehicle changes directions more than once, or when the vehicle is turning on a turn table in a parking lot. The vehicle is entering and/or exiting a parking lot, garage, or a lot with a roof. The GPS signal is not received. (cid:129) A roof carrier is installed on your vehicle. The vehicle is being driven with tire chains. The tires are replaced. The tire pressure for your tires is incorrect. The tires are worn. The ﬁrst time the map DVD is inserted. The battery is disconnected for several days. The vehicle is driving in heavy traffic where driving is at low speeds, and the vehicle is stopped and started repeatedly.

Using a Compressed Audio CD/DVD Compressed Audio CD/DVD Format There are guidelines that must be met, when creating an MP3, WMA, or mixed disc. If the guidelines are not met when recording a burned disc, the disc may not play. The guidelines are: ID3 tag information is displayed by the radio if it is available. The radio supports ID3 tag information v1.0, v1.1, and v2.0. The radio displays a ﬁlename, song name, artist name, album name, and directory name. (cid:129) Maximum 32 characters, including spaces, in a ﬁle or folder name. The recommended maximum number of folders is 100 with a maximum hierarchy of three folders. 3-11 (cid:129) (cid:129) Root Directory The root directory is treated as a folder. If the root directory has compressed audio ﬁles, the directory is displayed as ROOT. All ﬁles contained directly under the root directory is accessed prior to any root directory folders. Empty Directory or Folder If a root directory or a folder exists somewhere in the ﬁle structure that contains only folders/subfolders and no compressed ﬁles directly beneath them, the player advances to the next folder in the ﬁle structure that contains compressed audio ﬁles and the empty folder is displayed or numbered. No Folder When the disc contains only compressed ﬁles, the ﬁles are located under the root folder. The next and previous folder functions have no function on a disc that was recorded without folders. When displaying the name of the folder the radio displays ROOT. (cid:129) Create a folder structure that makes it easy to ﬁnd songs while driving. Organize songs by albums using one folder for each album. (cid:129) All playlist ﬁles (.m3u or .pls) must be removed from disc contents. Playlists are not supported. It is recommended that there is a maximum of 192 ﬁles on a CD-R(W) disc. It is recommended that there is a maximum of 200 ﬁles on a DVD+R(W) disc. The ﬁles can be recorded on a CD-R(W) or DVD+R(W). (cid:129) Copy protected WMA ﬁles are not supported. Scanning Compressed Audio Disc Scanning a compressed audio disc categorizes and allows sorting of songs by folder artist or album. (cid:129) Select center folder/artist/album button to initiate scanning mode. The radio plays and a progress bar displays. (cid:129) Background scanning occurs with the radio on and the compressed audio disc inserted but not being played. (cid:129) Only the ﬁrst 200 songs appears in the compressed audio music navigator. (cid:129) Scanning time varies depending on the number of ﬁles and folders on the disc. 3-12 (cid:129) (cid:129) (cid:129) File System and Naming The song name that displays is the name that is contained in the ID3 tag. If the song name is not present in the ID3 tag, then the radio displays the ﬁle name without the extension (such as .mp3) as the track name. Track names longer than 32 characters or four pages are shortened. The display does not show parts of words on the last page of text and the extension of the ﬁlename does not display. Playing a Compressed Audio Disc As stated earlier in this section, the player can be used for CDs with conventional CD audio, MP3, or WMA compressed ﬁles. Read the information under “CD Player” for more information on playing an audio disc. Order of Play Tracks are played in the following order: The radio does not support playlist ﬁles. (cid:129) Order of play differs depending if the compressed audio disc is fully scanned or unscanned. See “Scanning Compressed Audio Disc” previously in this section. (cid:129) When playing an unscanned disc, the next and previous screen buttons may be required to switch away from the current folder when quickly seeking rather than allowing the last song of a folder to play to completion.
