Demo Mode

This screen allows the navigation system to drive a route, when the vehicle is
stationary. Typical applications include auto shows, and other events. This feature
allows a visitor to enter a destination, and see the system drive to the destination.
No speed signal is needed.

To initiate the mode select ON.

Changing the speed rate in ms (milliseconds) is optional, and represents the
time between updates of the VP (vehicle position) movement.

When you increase the rate, the VP slows down because it is updated
(moved) at a slower rate.

When you decrease the rate, VP is faster because it is updated (moved)
more frequently.

1500 ms is VP at its slowest in demo mode.

150 ms is VP at its fastest in demo mode (Default).

At key off, the setting automatically returns to the default of Off.

Mic Level

This diagnostic screen allows you to independently test the microphone and the
TALK and BACK buttons. They are used to activate the voice control system. The
microphone is located near the map light in the ceiling. It is directional, and works
best if the voice is coming from the drivers seat.

Press the TALK button on the steering wheel, and in a normal voice say
"testing". The TALK indicator on the screen should momentarily turn green,
and the text "Now Recording..." should appear in yellow. If the Mic Level
indicator on the screen does not briefly turn green, then check the wiring from
the TALK button to the navigation unit.

If there is no Mic Level movement when you speak, then you should check the
wire running from the microphone to the navigation unit.

If the mic level bar is full or almost full without you speaking or other back
ground noise, replace the microphone and recheck.

Press the BACK button on the steering wheel. The Cancel indicator on the
screen should momentarily turn green. If it does not briefly turn green, then
check the wiring from the steering wheel BACK button to the navigation unit.

If the radio is off, and there is movement in the indicator-
even without speaking, ensure that the vents are not
blowing on the microphone.
This should resolve voice control complaints such as:
