The Navigation System determines the position of your vehicle by using satellite signals, various vehicle signals and map data.
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 accurate current position of your vehicle using signals sent by the GPS Satellites of the United States Department of Defense. When your vehicle is not receiving signals from the satellites, a symbol will appear on the map screen. Refer to Symbols .
This system may not be available/or interference may occur if the following happens:
| • | Signal obstructions caused by tall buildings, large trucks, tunnels, |
| • | objects located on the top of the dash, |
| • | satellites will not send signals if they are being repaired or improved, |
| • | after-market glass tinting has been applied to the vehicle's windows. |
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.
