Start the driving after closing the opening screen as much as possible. The system is ready
to start during opening screen.

The vehicle position indicator may disappear temporarily after the speed is increased
depending on the vehicle model. This is a normal phenomenon indicating that the system
is calculating the distance correction.
The mobile navigation system uses GPS data for distance correction automatically. It must be
properly calibrated for accurate operation. Perform calibration in any of the following circumstances:
1. When using the navigation system for the very first time after installing the system.
2. When the navigation system is transferred to another vehicle.
3. When the tire pressure is changed, tires are rotated, the spare tire is used, tire size, or
wheel diameter is changed.
4. When deleting the position correction learning results.
Notes
Before Use
Make sure the GPS reception indicator is illuminated on the map screen.
GPS reception indicator Drive the vehicle in an open area for approximately 30-minutes at a speed over 20 kph
(12.5 MPH) while receiving GPS signals.

Intersection guidance
Voice Guidance

The navigation system is just a support system for the driver. The driver should always
pay attention to the traffic situation to safely make decisions. You may be unable at
times to arrive at your destination due to out-of-date information on a map disc. You
should be especially careful when selecting an urgent destination such as a hospital or
a police station.

Your route may sometimes include roads that are not open to vehicles or are closed
due to traffic regulations. Please comply with the local traffic regulations.

Do not change the settings and destination locations while driving. Minimize the time
spent viewing the monitor screen and listening to the voice guidance while driving.
Operating the system will distract the driver from looking ahead of the vehicle and may
cause an accident. Always stop the vehicle in a safe location and use the parking brake
before operating the system.
Warnings

The system vocally announces the distance to an upcoming highway
branching point or junction.
aThis guidance function can be set in the [Setup menu]. For details, see page 32.

The mobile navigation system calculates and indicates the vehicle position on the map by
multiplying the speed pulse emitted by the vehicle with a correction coefficient.
The speed pulse emitted varies with the type of vehicle and with differences in tire
pressure and wear.
A different correction coefficient might even be required for the same type of vehicle.

Using a spare tire in place of the regular one may cause vehicle position deviations.
