WARNING
. This navigation system should not
be used to replace your own judge-
ment. No itinerary suggested by this
navigation system should ever over-
ride any highway regulations, your
own judgement, or a knowledge of
safe driving practices. Do not follow
the navigation system’s suggested
itinerary if it would cause you to perform a dangerous or illegal act,
place you in a dangerous situation,
or take you into an area you con-
sider unsafe.
. The advice provided by the naviga-
tion system is to be regarded as a
suggestion only. There may be
times when the navigation system
displays the vehicle’s location in-
correctly, fails to suggest the short-
est route, or fails to direct you to the
your desired destination. In such
instances, rely on your own driving
judgement, taking into account the
driving conditions at the time.
. Do not use the navigation system to
locate emergency services. The da-
tabase does not contain a complete
listing of emergency services such
as police stations, fire halls, hospi-
tals and walk-in clinics. Please
show discretion and ask for direc-
tions in such instances.
. As the driver, you alone are respon-
sible for your driving safety.
— In order to avoid a traffic accident, do not operate the system while
driving.

10-16General system information
— In order to avoid a traffic accident,operate the system only when the
vehicle is stopped at a safe place
and the parking brake is on.
— In order to avoid a traffic accident or traffic offence, remember that
actual road conditions and traffic
regulations take precedence over
the information contained on the
navigation system.
— The Software may contain inaccu- rate or incomplete information
due to the passage of time, chan-
ging circumstances, and the
sources of information used.
Please respect current traffic con-
ditions and regulations at all
times while driving.
— Where actual road conditions and highway regulations differ from
the information contained on the
navigation system, abide by the
highway regulations.

on the control panel to change the mode. Refer
to the vehicle Owner’s Manual.
The display is turned off. Push to turn on the

No voice guidance is available.
or
The volume is too high or too low. The volume is not set correctly, or it is turned off.
Adjust the volume of voice guidance.
Voice guidance is not provided for certain streets (roads displayed in
gray). This is not a malfunction.
No map is displayed on the screen. A screen other than map screen is displayed. Push

11-4Troubleshooting guide
SymptomPossible cause Possible solution
Names of roads and locations differ
between Plan View and Birdview
TM. 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 incorrect
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 automatically correct the position and
direction of the vehicle icon.
“Current vehicle location” (page 10-3)
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 system
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

when turning on the head-
lights.
“Display settings” (page 8-3)
The map does not scroll even when
the vehicle is moving. The current location map screen is not displayed.

SymptomPossible cause Possible solution
The traffic information is not dis-
played. The traffic information is not set to on.
Set the traffic information to on.
The vehicle is in an area where traffic information is not available. Scroll to an area where traffic information is available.
The subscription to NavTraffic is incomplete, or the subscription to
NavTraffic has expired. Check the subscription status of NavTraffic.
The map scale is set at a level where the display of icons is impossible. Check that the map scale is set at a level in which the display of icons is possible.
“Traffic information display and scale le-
vels” (page 7-7)
With the automatic detour route
search ON, no detour route is set to
avoid congested areas. There is no faster route compared to the current route, based on the
road network and traffic information.
The automatic detour search is not intended for
avoiding traffic jams. It searches for the fastest
route taking into consideration such things as
traffic jams. Follow the current route. Also see
“NOTES ON NavTraffic INFORMATION” for
further information.
The route does not avoid a road
section with traffic information stating
that it is closed due to road construc-
tion. The navigation system is designed not to avoid this event because the
actual period of closure may differ from the declared roadwork period.
Observe the actual road conditions and follow
the instructions on the road for detour when
necessary. If the road actually is closed, use the
detour function and set the detour distance to
avoid the road section that is closed.
