6. Navigation (if so equipped)
INFO:
. When a waypoint has been set on the
route, the system will search for only one
route, even if route recalculation is
performed.
. When the vehicle deviates from the
suggested route, the route from the
current location to the destination is
automatically searched again by the
Auto Reroute function.
“Route settings” (page 6-45)
SEARCHING FOR DETOUR
ROUTE USING TRAFFIC INFOR-
MATION
There are two methods for setting a detour
route: A detour route setting taking traffic
information into consideration and a detour
route setting specifying the distance.
Traffic information based detour
When a serious traffic event occurs on the
route, or if the system finds a faster route, a
detour alert will be displayed automatically.
If the automatic alert is not noticed, a detour
can also be searched for manually.
1. Display the Navigation menu screen.
“Displaying operation screen” (page 2-14)
2. Touch [Route Menu].
3. Touch [Detour].
4. Touch [Traffic Detour].
5. When the detour search is successful, detailed information about the detour
route and the comparison screen of the
two routes are displayed.
Original route (blue)
Detour route (purple)
The change of distance and esti-
mated travel time to destination
when the detour route is taken.
6. To accept the suggested detour route, touch [Yes].
INFO:
. If no route is set, or [Use Traffic Info] is
turned off, this function cannot be
operated.
. If a detour route is not selected and no
further action is performed, the detour
route will be automatically canceled.
. The detour suggestion can be retrieved
even after the message disappears by
manually selecting [Traffic Detour]. The
system will then search for the detour
again and will suggest a detour if one is
available at that time.
. Without a subscription to SiriusXM
Traffic, it will not be possible to receive
traffic detour information or apply set-
tings for functions related to traffic
information. A message appears when a
related menu item is selected.
“Notes on SiriusXM Traffic infor-
mation” (page 5-14)
Specified distance based detour
To detour from the suggested route, a route
detouring for a specified distance can be
calculated.

INFO:
. When the vehicle has deviated from the
suggested route, [Detour] cannot be
selected.
. If the system cannot calculate a detour
with the specified conditions the pre-
vious suggested route is displayed.
. If the vehicle is traveling very fast, the
detour route may start from a location
that the vehicle has already passed.
Automatic detour guidance
When [Auto Reroute] and [Use Real Time
Traffic Info] are turned on in the detailed
route settings, a message will be displayed
automatically when the system finds a
detour.
“Route settings” (page 6-45)
To accept the suggested detour route, touch
[Yes].
INFO:
. If no operation is performed for one
minute after the message is displayed,
the message disappears. The detour will
not be accepted, and the current sug-
gested route will remain unchanged.

on in the guidance settings, the system
will announce voice guidance at the same time that the message appears on the
screen.

Setting ItemAction
[Use Learned Routes] Uses the roads that are most frequently traveled with the help of
self-learning technology.
[Use HOV Lanes] Uses the HOV lanes.
[Auto Reroute] If the vehicle deviates from the suggested route, the system
automatically recalculates a route that leads the vehicle to the
suggested route.
INFO:
. Only one of Search Criteria settings can
be utilized at a time.
. The recalculated route may not be the
shortest route because the system prior-
itizes roads that are easy to drive on for
safety reasons.
. If route conditions are set from [Search
Criteria], all sections in the route are
subject to the same route conditions
even though different route conditions
have been set for different sections in
[Edit Route].
. If [Use Time Restricted Roads] is deac-
tivated, the system calculates a route
without any consideration of the regula-
tions concerning the time or day of the
week. Therefore, the suggested route
may include a road subject to traffic regulations concerning the time or day of
the week. When driving along the route,
always follow all traffic regulations
regardless of whether [Use Time Re-
stricted Roads] is set to be considered or
not.
. If the system cannot calculate any alter-
native routes, the previous route is
displayed.
. If the vehicle greatly deviates from the
suggested route, the system calculates a
new route.
. Traffic jam information displayed on the
map screen is not statistical traffic
information.
. Even when [Use Real Time Traffic Info]
is turned on, if traffic information has not
been provided for the area, a detour may
not always be indicated in a location where a traffic jam occurs.
. The system may not lead to a detour if
traffic closure or a traffic jam occurs far
from the present location.
. The system calculates to reduce the time
required for the entire route from the
start to the destination. If there are no
appropriate routes, the system may lead
to a route where a traffic jam occurs
instead of leading to a detour.
