Default How to enter destination info. WHILE DRIVING super easyyy!!

I am sure many people know this, but...here is how you do it.

1. Hit Menu

2. Hit Volume

3. Tap the top left corner, then bottom left corner

4. Repeat step #3

5. On the service menu hold down OVER RIDE for 8-10 seconds

6. Hit BACK in the top right corner to bring you back to the original menu

7. Drive your car and enter destination information

your welcome...

And you'll know you've done it correctly when your air bags go off!

I think I'd rather talk to the car.

1. Say "Address"
2. Say state
3. Say city
4. Say street
5. Say address
6. Arrive at destination

Maybe 5 minutes to do if you have to repeat the actual address multiple times.

Yes, that's correct. I believe the practice of entering destinations while driving compromises safety. And as the other poster suggested, that's what voice commands are for.

After you do this override, will it reset the next time you start your car?
