Introduction
This manual explains the operation of the system. Please read this manual carefully to
ensure proper use. Keep this manual in your vehicle at all times.
The screen shots in this document and the actual screens of the system differ depend-
ing on whether the functions and/or a contract existed and the map data available at
the time of producing this document.
In some situations when changing between screens, it may take longer than normal for
the screen to change, the screen may be blank momentarily or noise may be displayed.
Please be aware that the content of this manual may be different from the system in
some cases, such as when the system’s software is updated.

The Navigation System is one of the most technologically advanced vehicle accesso-
ries ever developed. The system receives satellite signals from the Global Positioning
System (GPS) operated by the U.S. Department of Defense. Using these signals and
other vehicle sensors, the system indicates your present position and assists in locating
a desired destination.
The navigation system is designed to select efficient routes from your present starting
location to your destination. The system is also designed to direct you to a destination
that is unfamiliar to you in an efficient manner. Map database is made based on AISIN
AW maps, whose information source comes from HERE maps. The calculated routes
may not be the shortest nor the least traffic congested. Your own personal local knowl-
edge or “short cut” may at times be faster than the calculated routes.
The navigation system’s database includes Point of Interest categories to allow you to
easily select destinations such as restaurants and hotels. If a destination is not in the da-
tabase, you can enter the street address or a major intersection close to it and the sys-
tem will guide you there.
The system will provide both a visual map an d audio instructions. The audio instructions
will announce the distance remaining and the direction to turn when approaching an
intersection. These voice instructions will help you keep your eyes on the road 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 limitations that
may affect their ability to perform properly. The accuracy of the vehicle’s position de-
pends on satellite conditions, road configuration, vehicle condition or other circum-
stances. For more information on the limitations of the system, refer to page 160.

While driving, listen to the voice instructions
as much as possible and glance at the
screen briefly and only when it is safe. How-
ever, do not totally rely on voice guidance.
Use it just for reference. If the system can-
not determine the current position correct-
ly, there is a possibility of incorrect, late, or
non-voice guidance.
The data in the system may occasionally be
incomplete. Road conditions, including
driving restrictions (no left turns, street clo-
sures, etc.) frequently change. Therefore,
before following any instructions from the
system, look to see whether the instruction
can be done safely and legally.
This system cannot warn about such things
as the safety of an area, condition of streets,
and availability of emergency services. If un-
sure about the safety of an area, do not drive
into it. Under no circumstances is this sys-
tem a substitute for the driver’s personal
judgement.
Use this system only in locations where it is
legal to do so. Some areas may have laws
prohibiting the use of navigation screens
next to the driver.
WA R N I N G
●Exercise extreme caution if operating the
system while driving. Insufficient attention
to the road, traffic or weather conditions
may cause an accident.
●While driving, be sure to obey the traffic
regulations and maintain awareness of
the road conditions. If a traffic sign on the
road has been changed, route guidance
may not have the updated information
such as the direction of a one way street.
