SYSTEM DESCRIPTION
Revision: 2007 April2007 M35/M45

Map-matching does not function correctly when a road on which
the vehicle is driving is new and not recorded in the map DVD-
ROM, or when road pattern stored in the map data and the
actual road pattern are different due to repair.
When driving on a road not present in the map, the map-match-
ing function may find another road and position the vehicle mark
on it. Then, when the correct road is detected, the vehicle mark
may change to it.

Effective range for comparing the vehicle position and travel
direction calculated by the distance and direction with the road
data read from the map DVD-ROM is limited. Therefore, when
there is an excessive gap between current vehicle position and
the position on the map, correction by map-matching is not possible.
GPS (Global Positioning System)
GPS (Global Positioning System) was developed for and is con-
trolled by the US Department of Defense. The system utilizes GPS
satellites (NAVSTAR), sending out radio waves while flying on an
orbit around the earth at an altitude of approximately 21,000 km
(13,100miles).
The GPS receiver calculates the vehicle's position in three dimen-
sions (latitude/longitude/altitude) according to the time lag of the
radio waves received from four or more GPS satellites (three-dimen-
sional positioning). If radio waves were received only from three
GPS satellites, the GPS receiver calculates the vehicle's position in
two dimensions (latitude/longitude), utilizing the altitude data calcu-
lated previously with radio waves from four or more GPS satellites
(two-dimensional positioning).
Position correction by GPS is not available while the vehicle is stopped.
Accuracy of GPS will deteriorate under the following conditions:

In two-dimensional positioning, GPS accuracy will deteriorate when altitude of the vehicle position
changes.

The accuracy can be even lower depending on the arrangement of the GPS satellites utilized for the posi-
tioning.

Position detection is not possible when vehicle is in an area where radio waves from the GPS satellite do
not reach, such as in a tunnel, parking lot in a building, and under an elevated highway. Radio waves from
the GPS satellites may not be received when some object is located over the GPS antenna.
NOTE:

Even a high-precision three dimensional positioning, the detection result has an error about 10 m (30 ft).

Because the signals of GPS satellite is controlled by the Tracking and Control Center in the United States,
the accuracy may be degraded lower intentionally or the radio waves may stop.
HANDS-FREE PHONE

AV (NAVI) control unit has Bluetooth module. It can perform wireless hands-free telephone calls using a
cellular phone in vehicle compartment.

5 or more portable phones can be registered into the AV (NAVI) control unit.
REAR VIEW MONITOR

The small CCD camera is equipped into the rear end of the vehicle. The rear view monitor that displays
the area behind the vehicle while backing up is equipped.

Guiding lines indicating side and rear clearances are provided in the rear view monitor image, which
allows the driver to more easily judge distances between the vehicle and objects in the display. The possi-
ble route lines that indicate the possible route according to the steering angle are provided to help backing
up when parking.

Image quality of the rear view image and of the navigation screen can be adjusted separately.
