Buttons and data fields are displayed on the screen, and you can 
perform navigation. During navigation, route information is displayed 
on the screen.
The data fields display differs when no destination is set during 
navigation (no orange line is displayed). When performing navigation, 
the number of the data fields displayed on the screen is three. Up to 
two data fields can be displayed when no destination is set (no orange 
line is displayed). Default data fields when no destination is set while driving
Default data fields when performing navigation (you can change the 
values in fields by using touch & hold):
Field Explanation
 (Altitude)Shows the altitude of the road currently being 
driven and measured by the GPS receiver. 
( There may be a maximum ±50 m of differences 
depending on the reception status of GPS 
satellites.)
 (Time)Displays the current time corrected using the 
time zone offset. Accurate time is acquired from 
the GPS satellite, while time zone information is 
acquired from the map. You can also make 
manual settings in Units and Formats.
(Only for the Menu screen, the current time is 
shown in the bottom left corner of the screen.)
Field Explanation
 (Distance)*Displays the distance on the route to the final 
destination.
 (Time Left)Displays the time left until arrival at the final 
destination based on the information available 
for the remainder of the journey. This is 
calculated according to prior traffic data or 
traffic patterns when ever available.
If a TMC receiver is connected to the main unit 
and is receiving data, any traffic jams along the 
route are also factored into calculations. 
However, the accuracy of these calculations 
varies greatly.

* Time and distance to the destination cannot be displayed when your vehicle is 
located in the place other than roads and Highways. After the vehicle returns 
to a road or Highway, time and distance are displayed.
Position Marker
■Vehicle Marker and Lock-on-Road
If GPS positioning is available, the current position is shown using the 
vehicle marker.
•When any vehicle is selected, the vehicle marker may not display an 
accurate GPS position and direction of travel. If there is a road nearby, 
the GPS positioning error is corrected based on the shortest distance 
to the road to, and the direction of the icon is adjusted to match the 
direction of the road.
■Selected map location (cursor) 
Use one of the following methods to mark a map location.
•Touch the map during navigation.
•Touch the map when the destination you want is displayed in the 
search results.
•Touch the map in “Find on Map”. (See Page 128.)
After selecting a map location, a cursor is displayed at the point 
selected on the map. The cursor is displayed as a red point ( ) and can 
be checked at all zoom levels.
You can use the cursor's position as the route's destination, search for 
locations around the cursor, and save the position in the destination list.
 (Arrival 
Time)*Displays the estimated arrival time at the final 
destination based on the information available 
for the remainder of the journey. This is 
calculated according to prior traffic data or 
traffic patterns when ever available.
If a TMC receiver is connected to the main unit 
and is receiving data, any traffic jams along the 
route are also factored into calculations. 
However, the accuracy of these calculations 
varies greatly.

time zone offset. Accurate time is acquired from 
the GPS satellite, while time zone information is 
acquired from the map. You can also make

Map Objects
■Direction display
If no destination is set while driving, the direction is shown on the 
screen in heads-up display.
Each letter indicates a direction: N (North), NE (North East), E (East), SE 
(South East), S (South), SW (South West), W ( West), and NW (North 
West). However, this is not displayed while driving on an expressway.
■Advanced confirmation of route changes and next road
During navigation, information on the next route event (the next 
change in the route), as well as the next city or town, is displayed at the 
top of the Map screen.
The next change in the route is displayed in the field at the top left 
corner of the screen. Displays the type of route event (right or left turn, 
roundabout, expressway interchange, and so on) and the distance from 
the current position. 
When the next route change approaches, the type of route change is 
displayed as a small icon next to the main icon. Only the next route 
change is displayed.

Most of these icons can be understood intuitively. The following table 
shows the most frequently displayed route events. The symbol design is 
the same in each field.■Lane information & signs
When using route guidance on roads with two or more lanes, it is 
important that you drive in the correct lane. When lane information is 
available on the Map, the lane and direction are indicated below the 
map with small arrows. The lane that you should drive in is highlighted.
When detailed information is available, the arrows are removed and 
signs are displayed. Signs are displayed at the top of the map. The color 
and design of the signs is the same as signs actually found at the side of 
the road or overhead signs. These signs show the district and the route 
number for the lane direction.

All signs are displayed in the same manner even when driving without 
using the navigation system. During navigation, only the sign that 
shows the lane in which you should drive is highlighted, the other signs 
are toned down.
■Junction display 
When approaching an expressway exit or a complicated intersection, 
the map switches to a 3D display if the necessary information can be 
displayed. An arrow indicates the lane in which you should drive. Signs 
are also displayed if the information is available. 
■Types of 3D Objects 
The following 3D object types are supported. 
Type Explanation
3D Topography  On a 2D map, the changes in topography or 
undulations in the ground are displayed; and 
when using 3D this data is used to create a 
route map image during navigation. On a 3D 
map, hills and mountains are displayed in the 
background, whilst on a 2D map they are 
expressed using changes in color and shading. 
Elevated Roads  Complicated intersections and three 
dimensional road objects (such as overpasses or 
overhead bridges) are displayed in 3D.

■Items displayed during route navigation 
The route is displayed using the following methods.
■Traffic condition 
Road sections affected by traffic conditions are displayed in a different color on 
the map, and a small icon representing the type of traffic condition is displayed 
above the road. You can change the items displayed by setting the Traffic. (See 
Page 160.)
When the traffic information has been received, the   icon displayed 
on the screen changes to the   icon.
To check traffic conditions outside the display, touch  . The Traffic 
Summary screen is displayed. 
Symbol Name Explanation
Current GPS 
position and 
departure pointCurrent location of the user displayed on 
the map
• When you select a vehicle in route 
search, and if there is a road nearby, the 
position of the icon is corrected based 
on the nearest road.
When the GPS position is available, the 
route usually starts from the current 
position. If there is no GPS position 
available, the last confirmed available GPS 
position is used as the departure point. 
Waypoint (midway 
point)The midway point target point before 
arrival at the target destination.
Destination (final 
point)The final destination on the route. 
Route color Displays using colors that are easy to 
understand and that stand out in daytime 
or night time color mode. 
Roads excluded 
from navigation Select whether or not to exclude a road 
from navigation. (See Page 161.) 
Roads affected by 
traffic conditions Any section of the road may be affected 
depending on the received traffic 
conditions. Roads affected by traffic 
conditions are displayed in a different color, 
and a small icon representing the type of 
traffic condition is displayed at the side of 
the route.
