nav question

To those of you who were able to set the dvd nav on movie capability,

After I set mine, the nav displays distance in yeards (when making turns) but speaks in feet. How do you set both on feet?

The distance unit in both the display and voice instructions is yards in mine. I didn't have to do anything special. You may want to check that the language on the Navi setting is English and not "same as the instrument cluster". I also have the keyboard set to ECE. I don't know if either of these will do it.

Good luck.

You cannot. Same thing is you have the Euro HU. It will display and speak in Feet until your final manuever, then it will give you the distance in yards. It is very annoying, indeed. However, it's worth it for the DVD feature
