Using result screens to improve
driving
This section explains how to use the driving
timeline screens. Use this information to make
your driving smoother.
INFO:
The criteria for smooth driving may vary depend-
ing on road conditions. Use this information for
reference purposes only.
Timeline and driving that show smooth
handling when driving through S-curve:
&1Turn the steering wheel slowly and the angle of
the graph slopes gently.
&2Turning the wheel slowly through the turn will
result in a smooth, curving line.
Multi function meter10-21
Page 257 of 298

10-22Multi function meter
&3By turning the steering wheel slowly back to its
previous position, the line on the graph timeline
returns to its standard position and the vehicle
stabilizes.
Timeline and driving that show sudden
turning of steering wheel:
&1Because the wheel is turned quickly, the buildup
of the line is very sudden.
&2When the wheel is turned back quickly, the
resulting line appears as a point.
&3When the steering wheel is being turned in an
erratic manner, the vehicle is veering abruptly.
Because of this, the line on the panel fluctuates
without settling.
This allows you to measure/display the timeline
and waypoint history over a given time.
STOPWATCH SCREEN
With the STOP WATCH screen you can
measure a segment of time or passing time.
You can also display and save recorded time-
lines and data.
How to view screen
&1TIME LOG:
Prominently displays the current time being
measured. The measured times are displayed in
a list. The system can store up to 99 items in its
memory.
&2Timer-on indicator:
The timer-on indicator will flash when the stop-
watch function is active.
&3SPEED:
Displays the vehicle speed while driving.

display is a recorded time of up to 9 hours
59 minutes and 59.99 seconds.
. When timing has finished, the upper timer
will reset to 00:00.0
. When the recorded time and the finished
recording time are displayed, they tempora-
rily interrupt the time recorder display and
are displayed in large numbers. The re-
corded time will disappear automatically
after 5-10 seconds. .

11-6General system information
WHEN GRAY ROAD IS DISPLAYED
ON MAP
.When you are driving on a road displayed in
gray after the vehicle has deviated from the
suggested route during route guidance,
automatic rerouting may not start immedi-
ately.
. The navigation system does not provide
route guidance for roads displayed in dark
green. Therefore, if the destination is set on
a road displayed in dark green, the enlarged
map display will return to the ordinary map
screen at some point on a suggested route
that is near the destination. Also, voice
guidance will stop at some point on a
suggested route that is near the destination.
. Places information and street names near
roads displayed in gray may not be con-
tained in the map data.
.There may be cases that carpool lanes are
included on a suggested route when the
automatic rerouting function is activated,
even if the “Use Time Restricted Roads” is
turned off.
“Setting conditions for route calcula-
tion” (page 2-65)
. The navigation system does not provide
route guidance for roads displayed in dark
green.
. If the destination is set on a dark green road,
the enlarged map display will switch to the
ordinary map screen at some point and
suggest a route that is near the destination.
The distance and direction to the endpoint
of the suggested route will be displayed in
the lower right corner of the screen. Also, at
this time, voice guidance will announce,
“The route to the destination includes roads
through incomplete map areas. Voice gui-
dance will not be provided in these areas”.
When approaching the endpoint of the
suggested route, voice guidance will an-
nounce, “Entering the road with incomplete
map data. Use the direction arrow and
distance information to proceed to your
destination.”
To reach the destination, refer to the map
screen. Always follow actual roads and regulations and drive safely.
. The suggested route may not be the short-
est, nor are other circumstances such as
traffic jams considered.
. Because of the inevitable difference in road
conditions and circumstances between the
time you use this system and the time the
information was produced for the map data,
there may be discrepancies in roads and
regulations. In such cases, follow the actual
information available.
. During route calculation, the map will not
scroll, however the vehicle icon will move
with the actual vehicle’s movement.
. During route calculation, buttons such as
Page 268 of 298

— If one section between waypoints cannotbe calculated, none of the route will be
displayed.
— The route may not connect completely at some waypoints.
— The route may require a U-turn close to some waypoints.
. Route calculation may not be completed in
the following cases.
— If there is no main road within a range of
1.5 miles (2.5 km) from the vehicle, a
message saying so will appear on the
screen. Try recalculating when the vehi-
cle is closer to a main road.
— If there is no main road within a range of 1.5 miles (2.5 km) from the destination or
waypoint, a message saying so will
appear on the screen. Try setting the
location closer to a main road.
— If the vehicle is too close to the destina- tion or if there are no roads to the
destination, a message saying so will
appear on the screen.
— If it is impossible to reach the destination or waypoints because of traffic regula-
tions, etc. — If the only route to reach the destination
or waypoints is extremely complicated.
— If the destination, current vehicle position or waypoint is within the “Avoid Area”.
— If a part of the route is included in the “Avoid Area”.
. The following may occur when the route is
displayed.
— If you calculate a route on a main road,
the starting point of the route may not
exactly match the current vehicle loca-
tion.
— The endpoint of the route may not exactly match the destination.
— If you calculate a route on a main road, the system may display a route from
another main road. This may be because
the position of the vehicle icon is not
accurate. In this case, park the vehicle in
a safe location and reset the vehicle icon,
or continue driving to see if the position
of the vehicle icon is automatically
adjusted before recalculating the route.
— There are cases in which the system shows an indirect route to reach the
destination or waypoints, if you set them
from stored or facility information. In
order to correct this, you must be careful
about the traffic direction, especially when lanes with different travel directions
are shown separately, such as inter-
changes and service areas.
— This system makes no distinction be- tween limited traffic control and total
control (blockage) . It may show an
indirect route even if the road is usable.
— Even if the freeway preference is set to OFF, a route that uses the freeway may
be suggested.
— Even if the ferry preference is set to OFF, a route that uses a ferry line may be
suggested.
— Ferry lines, excluding those that are only for pedestrians, bicycles and motor-
cycles, are stored in this system. Take
into consideration the travel time required
and operational condition before decid-
ing whether to use them or not.

11-8General system information
INFO:
The system will only announce street names
when the system language is set to English.
Street names are not announced when the
system is set to Franc¸ ais (French).
BASICS OF VOICE GUIDANCE
Voice guidance announces which direction to
turn when approaching an intersection in which
a turn is necessary.
NOTICE
. There may be some cases in which
voice guidance and actual road
conditions do not correspond. This
may occur because of discrepancies
between the actual road and the
information on the map data, or it is
due to the vehicle’s speed.
. In case voice guidance does not
correspond to the actual road con-
ditions, follow the information ob-
tained from traffic signs or notices
on the road.
. Route guidance provided by the
navigation system does not take
carpool lane driving into considera- tion, especially when carpool lanes
are separated from other road
lanes.
DIRECTIONS PROVIDED AND DIS-
TANCES TO GUIDE POINTS
Directions will differ, depending on the road
type.
Notification of intersection on or-
dinary road
1. “In about one quarter mile (400 meters) ,
right (left) turn.”
2. “Right (left) turn ahead.”
Notification of consecutive inter-
sections on ordinary roads
When the road has three or more consecutive
intersections ahead, voice guidance will an-
nounce the following.
1. “In about one quarter mile (400 meters) , right (left) turn, then in about one quarter
mile (100 meters) left (right) turn.”
2. “Left (right) turn ahead, then in about one quarter mile (100 meters) right (left) turn.”
