The tire change calibration func-
tion will be used when replacing 
the tires. This function will adjust 
miscalculation caused by the 
circumference difference 
between the old and new tires.
1Select “Select after a Tire 
Change”.
 The message appears and 
the quick distance calibration 
starts automatically.
●If this procedure is not performed 
when the tires are replaced, the 
current position mark may be 
incorrectly displayed.
*1: Vehicles with hybrid system
*2: This function can only be used in 
the mainland U.S.A. It cannot be 
used in other states and territo-
ries, including Alaska and 
Hawaii.
*3: Refer to the “OWNER’S MAN-UAL”.
The system operates based on 
the driving situation and traffic 
information to enhance fuel 
economy.
 The predictive efficient drive 
function can be turned on/off. 
( P. 1 1 9 ) The system automatically stores 
and registers support points 
where the driver always deceler-
ates or stops based on pedal 
operation and the vehicle speed 
of the driver.
The registered points are shown 
on the map as icons   for use 
as predictive deceleration sup-
port points.
When the position of the vehicle 
approaches the registered point, 
the icon changes to an empha-
sized  icon.
Depending on the system or 
driving situation, the engine 
brake amount increases after 
releasing the accelerator pedal.
As a result, the battery charge 
amount can be increased when 
decelerating or stopping the 
vehicle to enhance fuel econ-
omy.

●BD/DVD video precaution
• Conversational  speech on some 
BDs/DVDs is recorded at a low 
volume to emphasize the 
impact of sound effects. If you 
adjust the volume assuming 
that the conversations represent 
the maximum volume level that 
the BD/DVD will play, you may 
be startled by louder sound 
effects or startled when you 
change to a different audio 
source. Loud sounds may have 
a significant impact on the 
human body or pose a driving 
hazard. Keep this in mind when 
you adjust the volume.
