BASIC OPERATION

Head Unit Button Functions
Accessing the Navigation Software
Press the SRC button and select the NAV icon to access navigation mode.
Selecting / Listening to a Source while Navigating
While navigating, other sources may be selected and listened to such as AM-FM Tuner, CD,
etc. To listen to another source while navigating, press the SRC button and then select a
source from the Source Menu. Navigation voice prompts will be heard automatically, although
the navigation map cannot be seen. To view the navigation screen, but continue to listen to the
selected source, press the following buttons:
• UV9 / VM9213 / VM9212N / VM9312HD: Press and hold the WIDE button.
• VM9223: Press and hold the PIC button.
• VM9413 / VM9423: Press and hold the NAV button.
• VM9412 / VM9512 / AMM10N / VM9512HD / AMM12N: Press and hold the DISP button.
• VM9022 / VM9022HD: Press and hold the PIP button.
Acquiring a Satellite Signal
Drive your vehicle to an open area where the GPS signal can be clearly received and park the
vehicle. If the device is in motion, the signal can take longer to initially connect.
With the ignition on, verify that the "GPS" indicator is green. It may take up to 5 minutes to
establish the first connection. Subsequent connections will be faster (30 seconds to 1 minute),
but if you have not used the unit for several days or are very far away from the last location you
used it, it may take up to 5 minutes again to find a strong signal. If you cannot acquire the
signal, drive to another location. If the signal is still unobtainable, check your antenna
installation.
Once a GPS signal has been established, verify that the information display clock time (time
displayed on the radio) matches the navigation system clock. With an established GPS signal,
the software will follow you as you move and navigate.
The GPS symbol ( )may change colors indicating the strength of the signal. The GPS
symbol colors mean:
• Green - GPS signal is free from obstruction and is being received regularly - at least four
satellites are being received.
• Yellow - GPS signal is partially obstructed which means only three satellites are being
received.
• Red - GPS signal is unavailable, meaning two or fewer satellites are being received.
