SymptomPossible cause Possible solution
Names of roads and locations differ between Plan
view and Birdview™. This is because the quantity of the displayed information is
reduced so that the screen does not become too crowded.
There is also a chance that names of the roads or locations
may be displayed multiple times, and the names appearing
on the screen may be different because of a processing
procedure. This is not a malfunction.
The vehicle icon is not displayed in the correct
position. The vehicle was transported after the ignition switch was
pushed off, for example, by a ferry or car transporter. Drive the vehicle for a while on a road where GPS signals can
be received.
The position and direction of the vehicle icon may be incor-
rect depending on the driving environments and the levels of
positioning accuracy of the navigation system. This is not a malfunction. Drive the vehicle for a while to auto-
matically correct the position and direction of the vehicle icon.
“CURRENT VEHICLE LOCATION” (page 10-4)
When the vehicle is traveling on a new road, the
vehicle icon is located on another road nearby. Because the new road is not stored in the map data, the sys-
tem automatically places the vehicle icon on the nearest road
available. Updated road information will be included in the next version of
the map data.
The screen does not switch to the night screen
even after turning on the headlights. The daytime screen was set the last time the headlights were
turned on.
Set the screen to the night screen mode using the
but-
ton when turning on the headlights.
“DISPLAY SETTINGS” (page 8-3)
The map does not scroll even when the vehicle is
moving. The current location map screen is not displayed.
Press the MAP button.
The vehicle icon is not displayed. The current location map screen is not displayed. Press the MAP button.
