This manual explains the operation of the Navigation 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 navigation sys-
tem differ depending on whether the functions and/or a contract existed and the
map data available at the time of producing this document.
Please be aware that the content of this manual may be different from the nav-
igation system in some cases, such as when the system’s software is updated.
The Navigation System is one of the most technologically advanced vehicle ac-
cessories 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 posi-
tion 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
NAVTEQ maps. The calculated routes may not be the shortest nor the least
traffic congested. Your own personal local knowledge 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 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 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 ma-
neuver, change lanes or slow down.
Please be aware that all current vehicle navigation systems have certain limita-
tions that may affect their ability to perform properly. The accuracy of the ve-
hicle’s position depends on satellite conditions, road configuration, vehicle
condition or other circumstances. For more information on the limitations of
the system, refer to page 182.

Introduction

IS300h/250_Navi_EE
To use this system in the safest possible
manner, follow all the safety tips shown
below.
This system is intended to assist in
reaching the destination and, if used
properly, can do so. The driver is solely
responsible for the safe operation of
your vehicle and the safety of your pas-
sengers.
Do not use any feature of this system to
the extent it becomes a distraction and
prevents safe driving. The first priority
while driving should always be the safe
operation of the vehicle. While driving,
be sure to observe all traffic regulations.
Prior to the actual use of this system,
learn how to use it and become thor-
oughly familiar with it. Read the entire
Navigation System Owner’s Manual to
make sure you understand the system.
Do not allow other people to use this
system until they have read and under-
stood the instructions in this manual.
For your safety, some functions may be-
come inoperable when driving. Un-
available screen buttons are dimmed.While driving, listen to the voice in-
structions as much as possible and
glance at the screen briefly and only
when it is safe. However, do not totally
rely on voice guidance. Use it just for
reference. If the system cannot deter-
mine the current position correctly,
there is a possibility of incorrect, late, or
non-voice guidance.
The data in the system may occasionally
be incomplete. Road conditions, includ-
ing driving restrictions (no left turns,
street closures, etc.) frequently change.
Therefore, before following any instruc-
tions 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 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 areas may have
laws prohibiting the use of navigation
screens next to the driver.
SAFETY INSTRUCTIONCAUTION
Exercise extreme caution if operating
the navigation system while driving.
Insufficient attention to the road, traf-
fic 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.
