Terrain Navigation Manual
If the vehicle has a navigation system, there is a separate navigation system manual that includes information on the radio, audio players, and navigation system. The navigation system provides detailed maps of most major freeways and roads. After a destination has been set, the system provides turn-by-turn instructions for reaching the destination. In addition, the system can help locate a variety of points of interest (POIs), such as banks, airports, restaurants, and more. See the navigation system manual for more information.
Sure the system is on by pressing the power knob. Then either press the nav button on your console or the touchscreen. Remember if you don't see the navigation icon then press the home button to bring it up. Hitting the nav button again will bring up alternate map views.

2D heading up, shifts the view to follow the direction your car is traveling. 3D heading up does the same thing, but with a three-dimensional map view. The map modes option let's you choose between different views on your map, including full and split views that show your specified route in one half, and a larger map view in the other. You can also toggle between these views by pushing the nav button on your center stack. Take a look at the available map modes.
You have a lot of options. Full map or full map with minimal symbols. Or you can have a split screen with the map on the left side of the screen and more detailed options on the right side: Like a more detailed map, the distance until the next turn, or audio info. No one likes getting stuck in a traffic jam.
One very cool thing your navigation system does is alert you to events on your route that might cause problems. Selecting the traffic option, allows you to see all traffic events in your area as well as ones on your specific route. But navigation does more than help you get to your destination, it will also highlight points of interest where you can find nearby businesses, hotels, restaurants, or emergency facilities. You can choose to see these POIs on the map, as a list of what's near you, or as a list of sites that are on your specified route. Another great thing to know is that within a map view, you can use this rocker knob located inside the larger tuner knob to move around the map, much like you would use a mouse on a computer.
Once you're on the route to your destination, IntelliLink will provide you with turn-by-turn voice guidance to help you on your way. If for some reason you miss a voice prompt, hitting this button will repeat the last message for you. There is a wealth of knowledge at your fingertips. If you want to know more as you travel, hitting the information button, here, will give you quick access to key navigation screens. As you're using your navigation system, you'll notice a series of onscreen symbols. This circle with an arrowhead in it is your vehicle, the arrow points out the direction your car is heading on the map.
