5. Navigation System
A: WIRING DIAGRAM
<Ref. to WI-112, WIRING DIAGRAM, Navigation
System.>
B: INSPECTION
1. CHECK THE OPERATION OF THE NAVI-
GATION.
Start the engine, and then inspect that the opening
screen is displayed.
Standard value: The opening screen should be dis-
played.
OK: Normal
NG: When not displayed, check the signal line con-
nector and the audio connector. If there are no
problems in the connecting lines or the lines were
repaired, check that the opening screen is dis-
played.
At this point, if the display is not viewable, the unit is
defective.
2. CHECK THE DVD-ROM.
An opening screen is displayed, then it switches to
the map screen after a while.
When a screen other than the opening screen is
displayed, press the «MAP» key.
Standard value: The map screen should be dis-
played.
OK: Normal
NG: If the map screen is not displayed, check
whether the DVD-ROM is set in the navigation sys-
tem, whether the correct side is set, type of the
DVD-ROM, the existence of any scratches, etc. If
there are no problems on the DVD-ROM, the main
body is defective.
3. CHECK EACH CONNECTION
If there are no problems in the inspections of 1 and
2 above, use “<Ref. to WI-112, WIRING DIA-
GRAM, Navigation System.>” of the navigation de-
vice to perform inspection.
4. SWITCHING TO CONNECTION INSPEC-
TION MODE
1) Press the menu key.
2) Select navigation setup from the menu screen.
3) Select navigation information from the naviga-
tion setup screen.
4) Select the vehicle signal from the navigation in-
formation screen.
5) The display will switch to the vehicle signal (for
connection inspection) screen.
6) Check that the display changes according to
each operation
ON: Normal
NG: Check the circuit when the display does not
change.
5. CHECK THE GPS ANTENNA
NOTE:
When checking the GPS antenna, perform the
check operation outdoors to improve the receiver
sensitivity.
Make sure that a value other than “zero” is dis-
played in the GPS item.
OK: Normal
NG: If “No positioning” is displayed, check the GPS
antenna connection.
If the GPS display is red, the main unit could be
faulty.
6. CHECK THE BACK SENSOR
NOTE:
Before starting inspections, inspect the safety
around the rear end of the vehicle.
1) Turn the ignition switch to ON.
2) Pull the parking brake and depress the brake,
then put the gear in reverse.
3) Make sure that “On” is lit in the back sensor item.
Standard Value: “On” should be lit.
On: Normal
NG: If “On” does not light, check the signal line con-
nection. If there are no problems, the unit could be
faulty.
7. CHECK THE ILLUMINATION
1) Turn the lighting switch to level 1.
NOTE:
Make sure that the bright switch is not turned ON at
this time.
2) Make sure that “On” lights in the illumination
item, then the screen fades out.
Standard Value: “On” should be lit.
OK: Normal
NG: If “On” does not light, check the signal line con-
nection. If there are no problems, the unit could be
faulty.
8. CHECK THE PARKING SIGNAL
NOTE:
The side brake signal is normally “OFF”, so operat-
ing it will produce no change.

General Description
HVAC SYSTEM (HEATER, VENTILATOR AND A/C)
C: CAUTION
1. HFC-134A A/C SYSTEM
•The cooling system components for the HFC-
134a system such as the refrigerant and compres-
sor oil are different from the conventional CFC-12
system components and they are incompatible with
each other.
•Vehicles with the HFC-134a system can be iden-
tified by the label (A) attached to the vehicle.
Before maintenance, check which A/C system is in-
stalled to the vehicle.
2. COMPRESSOR OIL
•HFC-134a compressor oil has no compatibility
with that of CFC-12 system.
•Use only Denso Oil 8, the manufacturer-autho-
rized compressor oil for the HFC-134a system.
•Do not mix multiple compressor oils.
If CFC-12 compressor oil is used in the HFC-134a
A/C system, the compressor may become stuck
due to poor lubrication, or the refrigerant may leak
due to swelling of rubber parts.
On the other hand, if HFC-134a compressor oil is
used in a CFC-12 A/C system, the durability of the
A/C system will be lowered.
•HFC-134a compressor oil is very hygroscopic.
When replacing or installing/removing A/C parts,
immediately isolate the oil from atmosphere using a
plug or tape. In order to avoid moisture, store the oil
in a container with its cap tightly closed.
3. REFRIGERANT
•CFC-12 refrigerant cannot be used in a HFC-
134a A/C system. HFC-134a refrigerant, also can-
not be used in a CFC-12 A/C system.
•If an incorrect or no refrigerant is used, it will re-
sult in poor lubrication and the compressor itself
may be damaged.
4. HANDLING OF REFRIGERANT
•The refrigerant boils at approx. –30°C (22°F).
When handling it, be sure to wear protective gog-
gles and protective gloves. Direct contact of the re-
frigerant with skin may cause frostbite.
If the refrigerant gets into your eye, avoid rubbing
your eyes with your hands. Wash your eye with
plenty of water, and receive medical treatment from
an eye doctor.
•Do not heat a service can. If a service can is di-
rectly heated, or put into boiling water, the inside
pressure will become extremely high. This may
cause the can to explode. If a service can must be
warmed up, use warm water of 40°C (104°F) or less.
•Do not drop or subject a service can to impacts.
(Observe the precautions and operation procedure
described on the refrigerant can.)
•When the engine is running, do not open the
high-pressure valve of the manifold gauge. High-
pressure gas can back-flow resulting in an explo-
sion of the can.
•Provide good ventilation and do not work in a
closed area.
•In order to prevent global warming, avoid releas-
ing HFC-134a into the atmosphere. Using a refrig-
erant recovery system, discharge and recycle the
gas.
