Foreword
Thank you for your purchase of the Navigation System. Please read this \
manual carefully to ensure proper use. Keep this manual
stored in your vehicle at all times.
TheToyota Navigation System is one of the most technologically advanced vehicle ac\
cessories ever developed. The system receives satellit e
signals from the Global Positioning System (GPS) operated by the U. S. Department of Defense. Using these signals and other vehicle \
sen-
sors, the system can show you where you are and assist you in locating a desi\
red destination.
The navigation system is designed to select efficient routes from your present starting location to your destination. \
The syst em is designed
to direct you to a destination that is unfamiliar to you in an ef ficient manner. Map database is made based on the maps, 2001 edition of Denso,
whose information source comes from Nav Tech maps and GDT maps. The calculated routes are neither the shortest r\
outes nor routes without
traffic congestion. Your own personal local knowledge or ”short cut” may at times be fa\
ster than the calculated routes.
The navigation system’s database includes more than 50 points of interest categories to allow yo\
u to easily select destinations such as restau-
rants and banks. If a destination is not in the database, you can enter \
the street address or a major intersection close to it and the system
will route you there. The system will provide both a visual map and audio instructi\
ons. The audio instructions will announce the distance and
direction to go when you are approaching a fork or intersection. These voice inst\
ructions will help you keep your eyes on the r oad and are
timed to provide enough time to allow you to maneuver, change lanes or slow down.
Please be aware that all current vehicle navigation systems have certain limitatio\
ns that may affect their ability to perform properly.
The accuracy of the vehicle’s position depends on the satellite condition, road configuration, vehicle condition or other \
circumstan-
ces. For more information on the limitations of the system, refer to pages 4\
9 through 51.

Safety Instruction
0UE003
To use your system as safely as possible, fol-
low all the safety tips shown below.
This system is intended to assist you in
reaching your destination and, if used prop-
erly, can do so. You, as the driver, are solely
responsible for the safe operation of your ve-
hicle and the safety of your passengers.
Do not use any feature of this system to the
extent it distracts you from safe driving. Your
first priority while you are driving should al-
ways be the safe operation of your vehicle.
While you are driving, be sure to observe all
traffic regulations. Before attempting to use this system while
you are driving, learn how to use it and be-
come thoroughly familiar with it. Read the
entire Navigation System Manual to make
sure you understand the system. Do not al-
low others to use this system until they have
read and understood these and other in-
structions in this manual.
For your safety, some functions may become
inoperable when you start driving. Unavail-
able switches are dimmed. You can input
your destination and select your route only
when the vehicle is not moving.
CAUTION
For safety, the driver should not
operate the navigation system while
he/she is driving. Inattention to the
road and traffic may cause an
accident.
While you are driving, be sure to
follow the traffic regulations and
keep the road condition in mind. If a
traffic sign on the road has been
changed, route guidance may
provide wrong information such as
the direction of a one way street.

ivWhile you are driving, listen to the voice in-
structions as much as
possible and glance at
the screen briefly and only when it is safe.
However, do not totally rely on voice gui-
dance. Use it just for your information. If the
system cannot determine your current posi-
tion correctly, there is a possibility of incor-
rect, late or non −voice guidance.
The data in the system may occasionally be
incomplete. Road conditions, including driv-
ing restrictions (no left turns, street closures,
etc.) frequently change. Therefore, before
you follow any instruction from the system,
look to see whether you can comply with the
instruction safely and legally.
This system cannot warn you about such
things as the q uality of a neighborhood, con-
dition of streets, and availability of emergen-
cy services. If you are unsure about the safe-
ty of an area, don’t drive into it. Under no
circumstances is this system a substitute
for the driver’s personal judgement. We recommend that you obtain updated
map data, when it becomes available, in or-
der to help use the system as ef
fectively and
safely as possible.
Use this system only in locations where it is
legal to do so. Some states/provinces may
have laws prohibiting video screens within
sight of the driver.
