Introduction
Thank you for your purchase of the Navigation System. Please read this manual carefully to ensure proper use. Keep this manual
in your vehicle at all times.
The Navigation System is one of the most technologically advanced vehicle accessories ever developed. The system receives satellite signals
from the Global Positioning System (GPS) operated by the U.S. Department of Defense. Using these signals and other vehicle sensors, the
system indicates your present position and assists in locating a desired destination.
The navigation system is designed to select efficient routes from your present starting location to your destination. The system is designed
to direct you to a destination that is unfamiliar to you in an efficient manner. The system uses the maps of DENSO. The calculated routes
may not be the shortest nor the least traffic congested. Your own personal local knowledge or “short cut” may at times be faster than the calcu-
lated routes.
The navigation system’s database includes about 75 Point of Interest categories to allow you to easily select destinations such as restaurants
and banks. If a destination is not in the database, you can enter the street address or a major intersection close to it and the system will guide
you there. The system will provide both a visual map and audio instructions. The audio instructions will announce the distance remaining
and the direction to turn in approaching a fork or intersection. These voice instructions will help you keep your eyes on the road and are timed
to provide enough time to allow you to maneuver, change lanes or slow down.
Please be aware that all current vehicle navigation systems have certain limitations that may affect their ability to perform properly.
The accuracy of the vehicle’s position depends on the satellite condition, road configuration, vehicle condition or other circumstan-
ces. For more information on the limitations of the system, refer to pages 10 through 12.

Safety Instruction
To use your system in the safest possible
manner, follow all the safety tips shown be-
low.
This system is intended to assist you in
reaching your destination and, if used prop-
erly, can do so. You, as the driver, are solely
responsible for the safe operation of your ve-
hicle and the safety of your passengers.
Do not use any feature of this system to the
extent it distracts you from safe driving. Your
first priority while driving should always be
the safe operation of your vehicle. While you
are driving, be sure to observe all traffic regu-
lations.Prior to the actual use of this system, learn
how to use it and become thoroughly familiar
with it. Read the entire Navigation System
Owner’s Manual to make sure you under-
stand the system. Do not allow others to use
this system until they have read and under-
stood the instructions in this manual.
For your safety, some functions may become
inoperable when you start driving. Unavail-
able switches are dimmed. You can input
your destination and select your route only
when the vehicle is not moving.
CAUTION
For safety, the driver should not
operate the navigation system while
he/she is driving. Inattention to the
road and traffic may cause an
accident.
While you are driving, be sure to
obey the traffic regulations and
maintain awareness of the road
conditions. If a traffic sign on the
road has been changed, route
guidance may provide wrong
information such as the direction of
a one way street.

iv While you are driving, listen to the voice in-
structions as much as possible and glance at
the screen briefly and only when it is safe.
However, do not totally rely on voice gui-
dance. Use it just for your information. If the
system cannot determine your current posi-
tion correctly, there is a possibility of incor-
rect, late or non−voice guidance.
The data in the system may occasionally be
incomplete. Road conditions, including driv-
ing restrictions (no left turns, street closures,
etc.) frequently change. Therefore, before
you follow any instruction from the system,
look to see whether you can comply with the
instruction safely and legally.
This system cannot warn you about such
things as the safety of an area, condition of
streets, and availability of emergency servi-
ces. If you are unsure about the safety of an
area, do not drive into it. Under no circum-
stances is this system a substitute for the
driver’s personal judgement.
Use this system only in locations where it is
legal to do so. Some states/provinces may
have laws prohibiting video screens within
sight of the driver.
