Neat, but I've always felt the timeout feature takes way too long. Kind of annoying. Well, I just discovered that if you push the MAP button on the steering wheel twice, in rapid succession, the system will go to the MAP screen without any wait !!! Give it a try.

It seems like all too frequently I turn on the map when I can't quite read the street name and I'm closing in on it fast. The extra delay usually guarantees I'll drive by the street before the map pulls up. |

I sort of stumbled on to this some time ago, when I thought I pressed something to make it go away faster than the normal wait, but then I wasn't sure what I did so I figured I was just distracted so the ~ 5 seconds or so seemed shorter. But definitely good to know. Personally, I always wondered why people were so irritated by the I Agree screen. It is one immediate button press and gone. With the timed screen, you HAD to wait the ~5 seconds or so... until knowing this little gem. But I digress.

1. It was basically a CYA statement that I'm sure was conceived by lawyers. I felt that the statement(s) in the NAV manual were sufficient. If they really felt that they needed it on screen, then having it the very first time you pushed the Map button would have been fine, but not every fricken time. 2. It was distracting to deal with when moving, making it more dangerous IMO to use the map. A lot of times I only use the Nav to check for an upcoming street without using guidance. 3. Extra fingerprints on the screen. 4. Location of the "I Agree" corresponds to the Consumption screen "Reset" button. I accidentally reset a couple of times when I got in the habit of hitting "I Agree". Can you tell I was irritated?  | |
