*When driving on a road not displayed on the map
screen or a road that has been changed due to
additional construction or other reasons.*When the GPS positioning accuracy is low.
INFO:
. The vehicle icon may be misaligned when
starting the vehicle just after starting the
engine.
. The vehicle icon may also be misaligned if
different sized tires or tire chains are
installed.
. The system has a function that automatically
corrects the vehicle icon position when it is
misaligned from the actual position.
. Vehicle position correction by GPS may not
function when the vehicle is stopped.
. If the vehicle icon position does not return to
normal even after driving for a while, correct
the vehicle icon position manually.“Adjusting current vehicle location”

DETAILED MAP COVERAGE AREAS
(MCA) FOR NAVIGATION SYSTEMThis system is designed to help guiding to the
destination, and it also performs other functions
as outlined in this manual. However, the system
must be used safely and properly. Information
concerning road conditions, traffic signs and the
availability of services may not always be up-to-
date. The system is not a substitute for safe,
proper and legal driving. Map data covers select
metropolitan areas in the United States and Canada.
Map data includes two types of areas: “Detailed
coverage areas” providing all detailed road data
and other areas showing “Main roads only”.
NOTICE
Detailed map data is not available in
many areas and is generally limited to
select major metropolitan areas.WHEN GRAY ROAD IS DISPLAYED
ON MAP.
When you are driving on a road displayed in
gray after the vehicle has deviated from the
suggested route during route guidance,
automatic rerouting may not start immedi-
ately.
. The navigation system does not provide
route guidance for roads displayed in dark
green. Therefore, if the destination is set on
a road displayed in dark green, the enlarged
map display will return to the ordinary map
screen at some point on a suggested route
that is near the destination. Also, voice
guidance will stop at some point on a
suggested route that is near the destination.
. Places information and street names near
roads displayed in gray may not be con-
tained in the map data.

.There may be cases that carpool lanes are
included on a suggested route when the
automatic rerouting function is activated,
even if the “Use Time Restricted Roads” is
turned off.
“Setting conditions for route calcula-
tion” page 2-65
. The navigation system does not provide
route guidance for roads displayed in dark
green.
. If the destination is set on a dark green road,
the enlarged map display will switch to the
ordinary map screen at some point and
suggest a route that is near the destination.
The distance and direction to the endpoint
of the suggested route will be displayed in
the lower right corner of the screen. Also, at
this time, voice guidance will announce,
“The route to the destination includes roads
through incomplete map areas. Voice gui-
dance will not be provided in these areas”.
When approaching the endpoint of the
suggested route, voice guidance will an-
nounce, “Entering the road with incomplete
map data. Use the direction arrow and
distance information to proceed to your
destination.”
To reach the destination, refer to the map
screen. Always follow actual roads and
regulations and drive safely. .
The suggested route may not be the short-
est, nor are other circumstances such as
traffic jams considered.
. Because of the inevitable difference in road
conditions and circumstances between the
time you use this system and the time the
information was produced for the map data,
there may be discrepancies in roads and
regulations. In such cases, follow the actual
information available.
. During route calculation, the map will not
scroll, however the vehicle icon will move
with the actual vehicle’s movement.
. During route calculation, buttons such as
<MAP> and<DEST> and the center dial
will be disabled.
. In some cases, after the calculation is
complete, the calculated route may not be
immediately displayed.
. Waypoints that have been passed will be
disregarded by rerouting calculation.
. If you scroll the map while the suggested
route is being drawn, it may take more time
to finish drawing.
. If waypoints are set, the system calculates
multiple routes between waypoints simulta-
neously, and the following may result. — If one section between waypoints cannot
be calculated, none of the route will be
displayed.
— The route may not connect completely at some waypoints.
— The route may require a U-turn close to some waypoints.
. Route calculation may not be completed in
the following cases.
— If there is no main road within a range of 1.5 miles (2.5 km) from the vehicle, a
message saying so will appear on the
screen. Try recalculating when the ve-
hicle is closer to a main road.
— If there is no main road within a range of 1.5 miles (2.5 km) from the destination
or waypoint, a message saying so will
appear on the screen. Try setting the
location closer to a main road.
— If the vehicle is too close to the destination or if there are no roads to
the destination, a message saying so will
appear on the screen.
— If it is impossible to reach the destination or waypoints because of traffic regula-
tions, etc.
— If the only route to reach the destination or waypoints is extremely complicated.
— If the destination, current vehicle position or waypoint is within the “Avoid Area”.

VEHICLE ICON
SymptomPossible cause Possible solution
Names of roads and locations differ
between Plan View and Birdview
TM. This is because the quantity of the displayed information is reduced so that
the screen does not become too crowded. There is also a chance that
names of the roads or locations may be displayed multiple times, and the
names appearing on the screen may be different because of a processing
procedure. This is not a malfunction.
The vehicle icon is not displayed in the
correct position. The vehicle was transported after the ignition switch was pushed off, for
example, by a ferry or car transporter. Drive the vehicle for a while on a road where GPS
signals can be received.
The position and direction of the vehicle icon may be incorrect depending
on the driving environments and the levels of positioning accuracy of the
navigation system. This is not a malfunction. Drive the vehicle for a while
to automatically correct the position and direction of
the vehicle icon.
“CURRENT VEHICLE LOCATION” page 10-2
When the vehicle is traveling on a new
road, the vehicle icon is located on
another road nearby. Because the new road is not stored in the map data, the system
automatically places the vehicle icon on the nearest road available.
Updated road information will be included in the next
version of the map data.
The screen does not switch to the night
screen even after turning on the head-
lights. The daytime screen was set the last time the headlights were turned on. Set the screen to the night screen mode using
<OFF>when turning on the headlights.“DISPLAY SETTINGS” page 7-4
The map does not scroll even when the
vehicle is moving. The current location map screen is not displayed. Push
<MAP>.
The vehicle icon is not displayed. The current location map screen is not displayed. Push <MAP>.
The GPS indicator on the screen re-
mains gray. GPS signals cannot be received under certain conditions, such as in a
parking garage, on a road with many tall buildings, etc. Drive on an open, straight road for a while.
GPS signals cannot be received because objects are placed on the
instrument panel. Remove the objects from the instrument panel.
A sufficient number of GPS satellites is not available. Wait for the satellites to move to locations available for the navigation system.
