B: INSPECTION
1. CHECK THE OPERATION OF THE NAVI-
GATION.
Start the engine, and then inspect that the opening
screen is displayed.
Standard value: The opening screen should be dis-
played.
OK: Normal
NG: When not displayed, check the signal line con-
nector and the audio connector. If there are no
problems in the connecting lines or the lines were
repaired, check that the opening screen is dis-
played.
At this point, if the display is not viewable, the unit is
defective.

An opening screen is displayed, then it switches to
the map screen after a while.
When a screen other than the opening screen is
displayed, press the «MAP» key.
Standard value: The map screen should be dis-
played.
OK: Normal
NG: If the map screen is not displayed, check
whether the DVD-ROM is set in the navigation sys-
tem, whether the correct side is set, type of the
DVD-ROM, the existence of any scratches, etc. If
there are no problems on the DVD-ROM, the main
body is defective.
3. CHECK EACH CONNECTION
If there are no problems in the inspections of 1 and
2 above, use “ GRAM, Navigation System.>” of the navigation de-
vice to perform inspection.
4. SWITCHING TO CONNECTION INSPEC-
TION MODE
1) Press the menu key.
2) Select navigation setup from the menu screen.
3) Select navigation information from the naviga-

When checking the GPS antenna, perform the
check operation outdoors to improve the receiver
sensitivity.
Make sure that a value other than “zero” is dis-
played in the GPS item.
OK: Normal
NG: If “No positioning” is displayed, check the GPS
antenna connection.
If the GPS display is red, the main unit could be
faulty.

Before starting inspections, inspect the safety
around the rear end of the vehicle.
1) Turn the ignition switch to ON.
2) Pull the parking brake and depress the brake,
then put the gear in reverse.
3) Make sure that “On” is lit in the back sensor item.
