Basics of voice guidance:
Voice guidance announces which direction to
turn when approaching an intersection for which
a turn is necessary.
INFO:
. There may be some cases in which voice
guidance and actual road conditions do not
correspond. This may occur because of
discrepancies between the actual road and
the information on the map data, or may also
be due to the vehicle speed.
. In case voice guidance does not correspond
to the actual road conditions, follow the
information obtained from traffic signs or
notices on the road.
. Route guidance provided by the navigation
system does not take carpool lane driving
into consideration, especially when carpool
lanes are separated from other road lanes.
. For U.S. and Canada:
The system will announce street names
when the system language is set to English.
Street names are not announced when the
system is set to French or Spanish.
. For Mexico:
The system will announce street names
when the system language is set to Spanish.
Street names are not announced when the
system is set to English or French.

— The endpoint of the route may not exactlymatch the destination.
— If you calculate a route on a main road, the system may display a route from another
main road. This may be because the
position of the vehicle icon is not accu-
rate. In this case, park the vehicle in a safe
location and reset the vehicle icon, or
continue driving to see if the position of
the vehicle icon is automatically adjusted
before recalculating the route.
— There are cases in which the system shows an indirect route to reach the
destination or waypoints, if you set them
from stored or facility information. In order
to correct this, you must be careful about
the traffic direction, especially when lanes
with different travel directions are shown
separately, such as interchanges and
service areas.
— This system makes no distinction be- tween limited traffic control and total
control (blockage) . It may show an
indirect route even if the road is usable.
— Even if the ferry preference is set to OFF, a route that uses a ferry line may be
suggested.ROUTE GUIDANCE
