hi guys,

i just picked up a brand new 09 coupe today. so excited.

i set the nav screen to have a "split screen" display. and it works great when there's an actual destination inputted, and there's a reason to have turn by turn instructions displayed...

but when i cancel destination, split screen stays up, and just occupies empty space. is there any way to have split screen only appear when there's an actual destination inputted without having to 'check on or off' split screen each time? thanks!

nope...what you can do is assign the programable buttons to have a full screen settings. I, for example, have #1 set to split with onboard info....#2 is split with arrow display...#3 is full screen etc

You can use the presets or voice commands to manage the split screen (which is annoying, because it should be automatic).

I think it is "Split screen off" to return to full screen.
And then, "split screen arrow," "split screen entertainment details," etc.

For what it is worth, my presets are set as following:

1 Night mode
2 Home Address
3 Split Screen Entertainment Details
4 Split Screen Arrow
5 Split Screen Current Location
6 Split Screen On/Off

sounds like a good idea. these are the 6 programable hot keys under the CD drive correct? how do you program the hot keys? thanks!

also, is there way to turn up the 'nav-voice' directions?

Yes, while the voice is speaking, adjust the volume. Same goes with separate phone volume, BTW; adjust while on the call. Why we don't have a GUI for these volume settings...don't know!

Press and hold the button you want programmed once the feature you want is highlited. A message will come up at the top of the screen to confirm what shortcut you are saving. Not all commands can be programmed; it will tell you if it can't.

I suggest you save Navigation Voice as a button, too. If you need to repeat an instruction, just press the saved button twice. Press it once to shut it up or turn it on.

Actually, I think you can free up #3. I had #1/2 saved once. To get back to full screen, just press your #1 again.

Also, you can speak the VC "Home address" from any window to navigate to home, so I stopped using that as a shorcut.

haha... so the trick is to catch the nav voice while in action to adjust volume. got it! thanks!

Voice control command "Repeat" seems to work.
