I have two questions for everyone to help me with that I'm having a hard time finding an answer to on the site. Yes, I've read over the darn user manual several times as well.

 

1) In Navigation ( maps ) , how do you get the navigation to actually speak out the street names when heading towards a new destination ? Right now, mine just says the generic "turn left in 500 feet" kind of thing.

 

2) When I'm in SiriusXm and I press "Mode" on the dash, it turns the display off. I thought it was supposed to cycle through the various sources ? I was under the impression you had to hold down mode for this to happen.

 

Any help with these questions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.

1. You have to pick a TTS voice for that in your "regional" settings. It will tell you the ones that speak street names. Page 24 of the manual during initial setup, page 47 and 53 after.

 

2. There is a circle with a down arrow on the screen. Press that to select your audio source. Page 20 of the manual.
