Detailed Map Coverage Areas (MCA)
for navigation system
This 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. Map data includes two types of areas: “Detailed
coverage areas” providing all detailed road data
and other areas showing “Main roads only”.
INFO:
Detailed map data is not available in many areas
and is generally limited to select major metropo-
litan areas.
When gray/dark green road is dis-
played 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 contained
in the map data.

.The displayed street names may sometimes

. Voice guidance is not available when the
[Guidance Voice] is turned off.
“Volume and Beeps settings”
(page 2-20)
. Voice guidance will start when the vehicle
enters the suggested route. Refer to the map
for directions to the starting point of the
route.
. When approaching a waypoint, voice gui-
dance will announce, “You have arrived at
waypoint 1 (2, 3, 4,...) .” Voice guidance will
switch to the next section of the route. When
voice guidance is not available, refer to the
map for directions.
. In some cases, voice guidance ends before
arrival at the destination. Refer to the
destination icon on the map to reach the
destination.
. If the system recognizes on which side the
destination (waypoint) is located, voice
guidance will announce “on the right/left”
after announcing the arrival at the destina-
tion.
. Voice guidance may be partially operational
or inoperative due to the angle of roads at an intersection.
. For U.S. and Canada:
Because freeway lane information is avail-
able only for approximately 7,000 major
freeways in North America, it is not possible
to display information for all junctions and
exits.
. Freeway exit information may differ from the
information on the actual exit signs.
. Because it is not possible to consider data
concerning roads that are seasonally avail-
able or unavailable, a route may be displayed
that does not match the actual traffic
restrictions. Be sure to follow the actual
traffic restrictions while driving.
. For U.S. and Canada:
Canada and Alaska contain many roads with
incomplete map data. As a result, when
searching for a route, the route may include
roads with incomplete data. In regions where
road data is not complete, voice guidance
may stop for long periods of time. Be sure to
follow the actual traffic restrictions while
driving.
MAP DATA
How to handle the Map SD card
An SD card that includes the map data is
inserted. When handling the Map SD card,
please be careful and adhere to the following
instructions:
. An SD card is inserted in the slot. This is the
SDHC card that is exclusively used for this
device. This card includes the map data. The
SDHC card is necessary to operate the
device. Do not remove this card except when
updating the map data is required.
. Never analyze, modify, delete or format the
map data. Doing so may cause an improper
operation of the device.
. The SDHC card that is exclusively used for
this device does not work properly if it is
inserted in another device.
. The map data cannot be used even if it is
copied to another SDHC card.
. Do not remove the SDHC card containing
map data from the system. Using the system
with the SDHC card containing map data
removed will prevent some functions from
operating.
