NAVIGATION MAP SOFTWARE UPGRADE - INFORMATION

TECHNICAL SERVICE BULLETIN

SERVICE INFORMATION

This article explains some of the changes that can be expected when upgrading from navigation map software Version 3.07.06 to new navigation map software, Version 5.09.01 (See TSB GEN 051 Rev. 2). The software will provide significant changes to the look and menu functionality of the map interface; including changes to the map colors (background, roads, and traffic information), interfaces, screens, symbols, and route arrow. In addition, the map database contains more roads and POIs than the previous version.

New Features: 

The map guidance screen may have additional features (depending on the vehicle model and head unit type) as follows:

• Addition of pop-up menus to quickly change/cancel routes and for POIs
• Addition of a Menu on/off button
• Display of a map scale level indicator
• Display of speed limits on some roads/highways (on some models)
• Addition of a clock (on some models)

The quick menu is accessed by pressing the yellow star and allows you to quickly change/cancel a route

The POI quick menu is accessed by pressing the POI button:

Map Defaults for Generation 1.5 & 2.0 

Generation 1.5  (Forte, Sedona, pre-2014MY Sorento): Default routing is "Recommended"

Generation 2.0  (Optima, Optima Hybrid, Sportage, Soul, Rio) Default routing is "Recommended". "Use Ferries" defaults to "ON".

"Recommended"  tends to route based on distance and traffic conditions (customer may not be routed on the shortest distance on smaller, slower speed limit streets - may route more on major thoroughfares)

"Shortest"  tends to route based on the shortest distance from the start point to the destination, reducing the distance travelled, however, not necessarily the time travelled when compared to "Recommended".

"Minimize Freeway"  routes with minimal use of highways.

"Minimize Toll Road"  routes with minimal use of toll roads.

"Use Ferries"  routes to include the use of ferries.

Steps to complete after upgrading the navigation map software: 

• Radio presets will need to be re-entered as the system will default to the factory settings.
• Addresses and personalized settings will need to be re-entered into the head unit.
• Before searching for POIs, make sure to check the system's default state (Michigan) and adjust the setting to the desired state.
• Delete the phone from the head unit's list of currently paired phones. Also, delete the head unit from the phone.
• Perform a "re-pairing" of the head unit with the phone.
