Introduction
Thank you for your purchase of the Navigation System. Please read
this manual carefully to ensure proper use. Keep this manual in your
vehicle at all times.
The Navigation System is one of the most technologically advanced
vehicle accessories ever developed. The system receives satellite sig-
nals from the Global Positioning System (GPS) operated by the U.S.
Department of Defense. Using these signals and other vehicle sen-
sors, 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.
The system uses DENSO 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 about 75 Point of Interest
categories to allow you to easily select destinations such as restaurants
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 guide you
there.
The system will provide both a visual map and audio instructions. The au-
dio instructions will announce the distance remaining and the direction to
turn in 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.

CAUTION
DFor safety, the driver should not
operate the navigation system
while he/she is driving.
Insufficient attention to the road
and traffic may cause an accident.
D 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 provide incorrect information
such as the direction of a one way
street.
While driving, listen to the voice instruc-
tions as much as possible and glance at
the screen briefly and only when it is safe.
However, do not totally rely on voice guid-
ance. Use it just for reference. If the sys-
tem cannot determine the current vehicle
position correctly, 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 instruction 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 ser-
vices. If unsure about the safety of an
area, do not drive into it. Under no cir-
cumstances is this system a substitute
for the driver’s personal judgement.
Use this system only in locations where it
is legal to do so. Some states/provinces
may have laws prohibiting the use of video
and navigation screens next to the driver.

When starting the navigation system, the
current position is displayed first.
This screen displays the current vehicle
position and a map of the surrounding local
area.
The current vehicle position mark (1) ap-
pears in the center or bottom center of the
map screen.
A street name will appear on the bottom of
the screen, depending on the scale of the
map (
2).
You can return to this map screen that
shows your current position at any time
from any screen by pushing the “MAP/
VOICE” button.
While driving, the current vehicle position
mark is fixed on the screen and the map
moves.
The current position is automatically set as
the vehicle receives signals from the GPS
(Global Positioning System). If the current
position is not correct, it is automatically
corrected after the vehicle receives sig-
nals from the GPS.
INFORMATION
D After battery disconnection, or on
a new vehicle, the current position
may not be correct. As soon as the
system receives signals from the
GPS, the correct current position
is displayed.
D To correct the current position
manually, see page 115.
When any point on the map is touched,
that point moves to the center of the screen
and is shown by the cursor mark (
1).
Use the scroll feature to move the desired
point to the center of the screen for looking
at a point on the map that is different from
the current position of the vehicle.
If the finger is continuously held on the
screen, the map will continue scrolling in
that direction until the finger is removed.
A street name, city name, etc. of the
touched point will be shown, depending on
the scale of the map (
2). Distance from
the current position towill also be
shown (3).
After the screen is scrolled, the map re-
mains centered at the selected location
until another function is activated. The cur-
rent vehicle position mark will continue to
move along your actual route and may
move off the screen. When the “MAP/
VOICE” button is pushed, the current ve-
hicle position mark returns to the center of
the screen and the map moves as the ve-
hicle proceeds along the designated route.
INFORMATION
When the one −touch scroll feature is
used, the current vehicle position
mark may disappear from the screen.
Move the map with a one− touch scroll
again or push the “MAP/VOICE” but-
ton to return to the current vehicle
position map location display.
