nounced  correctly  or  clearly  due  to  the
text-to-speech function.
● On  freeways,  interstates  or  other  high-
ways  with  higher  speed  limits,  the  voice
guidance  will  be  made  at  earlier  points
than on city streets in order to allow time
to maneuver the vehicle.

NAVIGATION SYSTEM
■ROUTES INCLUDING IPD ROADS
After  it  has  made  a  route  calculation,  the
system  will  advise  the  user  whether  IPD
roads are included in the route or not.
 The  portion  of  the  route  that  covers  IPD
roads is indicated by light blue.
Even  when  on  IPD  roads  (roads  that
are  not  completely  digitized  in  our  da-
tabase),  you  will  be  guided  along  the
searched route via voice guidance.
No.Voice guidance
“On  the  way  to  your  destination,
there  will  be  roads  with  incomplete
data.”
“In half of a mile, left turn.”
“Next left. Upcoming roads have in-
complete  data.  Please  carefully  ob-
serve the local traffic restrictions, as
they  may  not  match  the  navigation
guidance.”
IPD  roads  are  roads  that  are  not  yet
completely  digitized  in  our  database.
However,  their  geometry,  name  and
administrative  coding  are  already
known.
CAUTION
● Be  sure  to  obey  the  traffic  regulations
and  keep  the  road  condition  in  mind
especially  when  you  are  driving  on  IPD
roads. The route guidance may not have
the  updated  information  such  as  the
direction of a one way street.

guidance route, the distance is the linear
distance  between  the  current  position
and the destination.
