We have another car that does this at start-up, but it eventually goes away on it's own. 

A lot of electronic features on these modern cars can only be manipulated by the dealer, I'm not surprised.

Perhaps if someone has figured out how to change the setting, they can chime in....

Hi all,

So, I would appreciate help with my small problem.  When I turn on the car, I see the Nav logo on digital screen for a second

Then it changes to an Attention screen that reads " Use this system only when traffic conditions permit. Do not rely solely on Driver Assistance systems.  Safe vehicle operation is the drivers responsibility."

How do I disable this, or change the settings, so Nav is not auto activated at start of car? 

(I tried to upload photos, but couldn't figure out the source)

Thank you!
