Navigation System5
Introduction
The navigation system is easy to use.
The locations of many places of
business and entertainment are already
entered in the system. You can select
any of them as a destination by using the
touch screen, joystick, or voice control.
There are several ways to enter a
destination, such as by point of interest
(POI), by address, by phone number,
and by selecting it from the map. The
last 50 destinations are saved for reuse
at a later date. The system also allows
you to store a home address to simplify
returning home from your destination.
Accessories PrecautionsIf you have front or side window tinting
installed, be aware that if the tint has
metallic properties, it can seriously
degrade or prevent GPS reception. This
is because the GPS antenna is located
under the dashboard.
If you plan to install electronic
components, such as radar detectors,
vehicle tracking devices, remote
starters, additional amplifiers, or other
audio components, ensure that they are
not located near the navigation control
unit under the dashboard, near the
navigation screen in the dash, or near
the GPS antenna under the dashboard.
Signal noise emanating from these
devices can cause intermittent
disruption of the navigation system.
Important Safety InformationThe navigation system can distract your
attention from the road if you focus on
the screen or operate the system’s
controls while driving.
Enter as much information as possible
into the system before you begin
driving, or when the vehicle is stopped.
Then, as you drive, listen to the audio
instructions and use voice commands
when possible.

Navigation System
While driving, do not look at the screen
or operate the system controls for more
than a second or so at a time, and only
after deciding you can do so safely. Pull
to the side of the road if you need more
time to look at the screen or operate the
controls.The navigation system is designed to
provide route information to help you
reach your destination. However, this
route guidance may sometimes conflict
with current road conditions such as
street closures, road construction,
detours, and out-of-date map data.
Additionally, the system itself has
certain limitations (see page 98).
Therefore, you must verify the audio
and visual route information provided
by the system by carefully observing the
roadway, signs and signals, etc. If you
are unsure, proceed with caution.
Always use your own good judgment,
and obey traffic laws while driving.
Map OverviewCurrent StreetThe current street on which your vehicle
is located appears at the bottom of the map
screen (see page 19). A message
saying “Not on a digitized road” may
appear instead when you drive 800
metres away from a mapped road. For
more details, see
Off-road Tracking
on
page 60.
Verified/Unverified StreetYour navigation system has two kinds
of streets: verified (dark coloured) and
unverified (light coloured). The
differences between the two types of
streets are contrasted in the chart on
page 7. Note that the “Unverified” roads
are displayed only on the U.S. areas.
Using the navigation system
while driving can take your
attention away from the road,
causing a crash in which you
could be seriously injured or
killed.
Only operate system controls
when the conditions permit you
to safely do so.

Getting StartedMap Screen DescriptionZoom In/OutUse the ZOOM buttons to change the
scale of the map. Zooming in increases
the detail, while zooming out gives you
a wide area view. After changing the
scale, give the system a few moments to
update the display.Map ScrollingTo view other areas on the map, move
the joystick left, right, up, or down. The
map will shift in that direction. To
return the map to your current location,
press either the MAP/GUIDE,
CANCEL, or NAVI BACK button on
the steering wheel.
Displaying Current LocationYou can say “Display current location”
or touch the vehicle position icon at any
time to see the current address, latitude,
longitude, and elevation. The screen
will change to:
NOTE:The elevation will not appear when the
system is temporarily lacking proper
GPS information. The system elevation
may not agree with elevations shown on
roadside elevation signs, and may
fluctuate plus or minus 30 metres or
more.
You can say “Save current location” or
select Save on the screen to save the
current location in your Address Book.

Navigation System
By Previous DestinationsEvery time you route to a destination,
that destination is saved by the system.
Up to 50 destinations can be stored.
Select Previous Destinations from
the Enter destination by screen to
choose one of those destinations.
After you select Previous
Destinations, the display lists the last
50 destinations entered, with the most
recent appearing first.NOTE:
•If Previous Destinations is
grayed out, there are no Previous
Destinations entered.
• When finishing a “Today’s
Destinations” trip, the Today’s
Destinations list entries are stored to
this list, beginning with the date (e.g.,
item 1 shown on the previous screen).
• Because both the Home address and
personal Address Book list can be
protected by a PIN, they do not show
up in the Previous Destination list.Scroll through the list and say the line
number (1-6) of the destination, or touch
the desired destination you want.
Once you select the desired destination,
the system then displays the Calculate
route to screen (see Driving to Your
Destination on page 45).
NOTE:
• Prior to departure, you can set areas
to avoid. The system then includes
them in its calculations for the
destination you have entered. See
Edit Avoid Area on page 87.
• For information on the available
voice commands, see Voice

all the current entries on the Today’s
Destinations list. Select Done to return
to the Enter destination by screen.
The system automatically sorts the
destinations stored in the Today’s
Destinations list for the best path.

according to the order of the list. When
you reach the destination, it will be
automatically removed from the list.NOTE:
When finishing a “Today’s
Destinations” trip, the Today’s
Destinations list entries are stored to
the Previous Destinations list,
beginning with the date (e.g., item 1
shown below). This entry contains all
the destinations that were included in
the Today’s Destinations itinerary. This
allows you to reselect the entire Today’s
Destinations content at a later date.
By Address BookThis selection allows you to choose a
personal address entry for a destination.
After you select Address Book from
the Enter destination by screen, the
display changes to:

in Setup, the system prompts you to
enter your PIN after you select User 1
or User 2. Say or enter your PIN, and
say or select Done.
If the PIN has not been entered, the
system displays the list after you select
User 1 or User 2.

Viewing/Saving the Current
LocationWhenever you are on a map screen, you
can always obtain your current location
either by touching the Vehicle Position
icon or by using the voice control
system and saying “Display current
location.” A screen pops up which
shows the address of your current
location, as well as the latitude,
longitude, and elevation.NOTE:
The elevation will not appear when the
system is temporarily lacking proper
GPS information. The system elevation
may not agree with elevations shown on
roadside elevation signs, and may
fluctuate plus or minus 30 metres or
more.
You can store the current location for
later use. It does not change or cancel
your current route.
For example, you are following the
system’s directions to get to a
destination. While sitting at a stoplight
you notice a store on the corner, but do
not have time to visit it right now. You
can save the location to select as a
destination at a later date.To save the location, say “Save current
location.” or select Save on the screen.
When you select “User 1” or “User 2,”
the Edit address book screen with the
current location data will appear. You
can edit the name, phone number, or
category name to be saved in your
personal Address Book.
After the location is saved, select
Return to return to the map screen.
You can then use Address Book from
the Enter destination by screen to
select the saved location and return to
the same spot.
