Default Navigation System

Hi All,

I was reading a link on the Nav system yesterday and now I can't find it.
It contained instructions on how to use the system by someone who was going to meet up with people at a meet and give them instructions.
Can anyone direct me to this link?

When I enter a destination using voice commands, and save it to the vehicle contacts, I can't find it. The only contacts are my phone contacts. Anyone know how to get to the saved destinations?

Thanks for any help,

Navigation page - menu - recent destinations. Scroll down list and if you navigated to the destination in question, it should be there. Just select it and push go. You can also save a destination as a favorite, example - home address. Normally if you want to navigate to an address; navigation page - menu - destination (enter address, you can abbreviate the state but not avenue, drive, road etc.). I use mine quite a bit, always navigation is set as my default page. Don't forget to check for route delays. I don't use voice commands so can't help you with those questions.

Tried to use the voice input for an obscure pizza joint in a small town. Maddening...

Thanks for the info.

I'm slowly getting there.

Sure wish I could find the thread that had a lot of instructional info on the Nav system.

You're right . . .

I seldom use voice recognition. Seems my voice isn't compatible with computer recognition. It is not just the Corvette, even the Nissan system has the same issues with my voice.

Hello All,

Well, I finally got there.

Just save each destination to a favorite and rename them.
Worked great.

Thanks for all the help and links to the videos.

Anyone know how to delete a contact from the
vehicle list?
