System Setup
102 Navigation System

Unverifi ed Area Routing
Allows you to receive turn-by-turn map and voice guidance in unverifi ed areas when en route to a destination (see Map
Overview on page
6
). The chart below illustrates the routing differences with this setting ON or OFF.
Unverifi ed Area Routing: OFF (factor y default) Unverifi ed Area Routing: ON
Decision:
Why choose
ON or OFF? The driver wishes to navigate manually by using the
navigation map and choosing the streets that lead to the
destination. The driver understands that unverifi
ed roads
may not be accurate, and can contain errors in location,
naming, and address range. The driver chooses to let the navigation system suggest
possible routing. The driver understands that in some cases
guidance may not be appropriate. Unverifi
ed roads may not
be accurate, and can contain errors in location, naming, and
address range.
What you will
see... A blue dotted vector line is displayed on the map that
continually points to your destination. The driver should
stop and then use the map to select streets that lead to the
destination. A blue-pink dashed route line highlights suggested
unverifi
ed streets on the map while traveling to your
destination. This is in sharp contrast to the normal blue
route line displayed in verifi ed areas.
Cautionary
messages There are cautionary pop-up screens and voice
announcements, before and during the route. These serve as
reminders that you should obey all traffi
c restrictions. There are cautionary pop-up screens and voice
announcements, before and during the route. These serve as
reminders that you should exercise additional caution, and
obey all traffi
c restrictions.
Guidance
(map /voice) There is no turn-by-turn map or voice guidance.
Voice guidance commands end with the words “if possible.”
This is to remind the driver to verify all traffi c restrictions
before making a maneuver.
Directions list A direction list is typically not available. However,
depending on your route, directions are provided to help you
reach the fi
rst available verifi ed road. A direction list is provided showing street names and turn
symbols in pink.

2010 TL

System Setup
104 Navigation System
With Unveri ed Area Routing
OFF , before you enter an unverifi ed
street, a caution box appears on the
screen and a voice message is given.
This lets you know that you are about
to enter an unverifi ed area and that you
will be following a dotted “vector line”
that points to your destination.
With Unveri ed Area Routing ON ,
a caution box appears on the screen and
is read by the voice. In this case, you
will be presented with a dashed blue/
pink line instead of the regular blue
route line. This is your signal to pay
attention to posted traffi c restrictions.
You cannot assume that all guidance is
appropriate.
In both cases, when you actually enter
the unverifi ed street, a short caution
will remind you. You will see and hear
this short caution message whenever
you enter unverifi ed areas.
If you regularly enter and leave
unverifi ed roads for short amounts
of time, there may be cases where no
guidance is provided. Unveri
ed Area Routing “OFF” Unveri ed Area Routing “ON”

With Unveri ed Area Routing
OFF , you are presented with a blue
“vector line” that always points to the
destination. You must manually choose

the destination.
With Unveri ed Area Routing ON ,
a blue/pink route line is shown for
unverifi ed segments. Voice guidance
commands in unverifi ed areas always
end with “if possible.” This is your
signal that you should use additional
caution, and obey all traffi c restrictions.
The maneuver window “arrow” shows
any portions of unverifi ed turns in blue/
pink dashes.
These guidance maneuvers are only
a suggestion. You should always
confi rm that the maneuver is possible.
A directions list is also provided that
shows any unverifi ed roads in a blue
color, with pink arrows pointing to the
next maneuver. Unveri
ed Area Routing “OFF”

For the pop-up menu displayed when
pushing in on the Interface Dial from
the map screen, Voic e is grayed out.
