Possible cause Drive condition Service procedure
AreaSlippery road surfaceOn wet, icy, or gravel road where
frequent wheel slippage occurs, dis-
tance calculations may be errone-
ous. The position marker may show
the vehicle to be in inaccurate posi-
tion.
If the position marker does
not move to the correct posi-
tion even after the vehicle
has been driven approxi-
mately 10 km (6 miles), per-
form ªAdjust Current Loca-
tionº MODE (EL-496). If
necessary, perform ªSpeed
Calibrationº (EL-488). Slanted areaHilly areas where the road has
banked curves. When the vehicle
enters these banked curves, there
may be an error in steering angle
measurement. The position marker
may show the vehicle to be in inac-
curate position.
Map
dataMap display for a given road does not appear.
SEL699V
When the vehicle is driven on a
newly constructed road that does
not appear on the existing map. Map
marking and calibration are not pos-
sible. The position marker may indi-
cate inaccurate position in close
proximity to the actual position.
Subsequently, when the vehicle is
driven on a road which is available
as map data, the position marker
may still indicate an inaccurate posi-
tion.
The vehicle is driven on a road whose course has
been altered (usually to improve the road or to
eliminate some hazard).
SEL700V
When the map data shown on the
display and the actual conditions are
different. Map matching will not be
possible. The position marker may
indicate inaccurate position in close
proximity to the actual position. If the
vehicle is driven on the indicated
road, further errors may occur.
Vehicle Use of tire chains (Stormy weather)Tire chains will affect distance sens-
ing. The position marker may indi-
cate inaccurate position.If the position marker does
not move to the correct posi-
tion even after the vehicle
has been driven approxi-
mately 10 km (6 miles), per-
form ªSpeed Calibrationº (EL-
488). After removing the tire
chains, sensing accuracy
may recover by itself.

Possible cause Drive condition Service procedure
Opera-
tionDriving immediately after starting engine.The gyro (angular velocity sensor)
needs about 15 seconds after the
engine is started to precisely sense
the angular velocity.
Directional sensing errors will occur
if the vehicle is moved immediately
after starting the engine. The posi-
tion marker may indicate inaccurate
position.Wait a few moments
between starting the engine
and actually driving the
vehicle.
Continuous driving for long distances (non-stop)When the vehicle is driven continu-
ously without stopping over a long
distance, errors in directional sens-
ing may occur. The position marker
may indicate inaccurate position.Stop the vehicle. Perform
ªSpeed Calibrationº (EL-488).
Rough or violent drivingWheel spinning (peeling out) or simi-
lar rough driving techniques can
adversely affect sensing accuracy.

GPS signal reception conditions are good. However, the position mark does not return to its proper
position.
+The system senses the vehicle location with an error of approximately 100 m (328 ft). Due to the limita-
tion of precision, the position marker may be inaccurate even if the GPS signal reception condition is good.
+The navigation system uses GPS data to determine vehicle location. GPS data is compared with other
locational sensing data during the map matching process. The system decides which data is more pre-
cise and uses that data.
+When the vehicle is stationary, GPS data cannot be used to make system corrections.
Area designations on the map display and the BIRDVIEW
Tdisplay differ.
To prevent the display from becoming congested, alphanumeric information is abridged.

Vehicle position precision is bad.
The map surface precision display (GPS satellite marker) still remains gray.
[Refer to ªThe map surface precision display (GPS satellite marker) still remains grayº item (Symptoms)]
Vehicle speed and elapsed distance is calculated from the vehicle speed pulse. This pulse is dependent upon
tire size. If tire chains are used on the vehicle, accuracy will be affected (pulse rate will be too fast or too slow).
The same is true if the system installed to your vehicle is removed and installed on another vehicle.
[Drive the vehicle at a speed higher than 30 km/h (19 MPH) for approximately 30 minutes. Automatic read-
justment should occur. If it does not (remains too fast or too slow), distance calibration is required. Or, drive
the vehicle for a short distance. Perform ªSPEED CALIBRATIONº (EL-488). After removing the tire chains,
sensing accuracy may recover by itself.]

+If skin disorders develop, obtain medical advice without delay.
+Where practicable, degrease components prior to handling.
+Where there is a risk of eye contact, eye protection should be

Environmental Protection PrecautionsNJGI0001S0702Burning used engine oil in small space heaters or boilers can be
recommended only for units of approved design. The heating sys-
tem must meet the requirements of HM Inspectorate of Pollution for
small burners of less than 0.4 MW. If in doubt, check with the
appropriate local authority and/or manufacturer of the approved
appliance.
Dispose of used oil and used oil filters through authorized waste
disposal contractors to licensed waste disposal sites, or to the
waste oil reclamation trade. If in doubt, contact the local authority
for advice on disposal facilities.
It is illegal to pour used oil on to the ground, down sewers or drains,
or into water courses.
The regulations concerning the pollution vary between
regions.
PRECAUTIONS FOR FUELNJGI0001S08Gasoline EngineNJGI0001S0803Models with three way catalyst
Unleaded premium gasoline of at least 95 octane (RON)
If premium gasoline is not available, unleaded regular gaso-
line with an octane rating of 91 (RON) may be temporarily
used, but only under the following precautions:
+Have the fuel tank filled only partially with unleaded regu-
lar gasoline, and fill up with premium unleaded gasoline
as soon as possible.
+Avoid full throttle driving and abrupt acceleration.
CAUTION:
Do not use leaded gasoline. Using leaded gasoline will dam-
age the three way catalyst.
Diesel Engine*:NJGI0001S0804Diesel fuel of at least 50 cetane
* If two types of diesel fuel are available, use summer or winter
fuel properly according to the following temperature conditions.
+Above þ7ÉC (20ÉF) ... Summer type diesel fuel.
+Below þ7ÉC (20ÉF) ... Winter type diesel fuel.
CAUTION:
+Do not use home heating oil, gasoline, or other alternate
fuels in your diesel engine. The use of those can cause
engine damage.
+Do not use summer fuel at temperatures below þ7ÉC
(20ÉF). The cold temperatures will cause wax to form in the
fuel. As a result, it may prevent the engine from running
smoothly.
+Do not add gasoline or other alternate fuels to diesel fuel.
PRECAUTIONS FOR AIR CONDITIONINGNJGI0001S09Use an approved refrigerant recovery unit any time the air condi-
tioning system must be discharged. Refer to HA-78, ªHFC-134a
