This manual explains the opera-
tion of the system. Please read
this manual carefully to ensure
proper use. Keep this manual in
your vehicle at all times.
The screens shown in this man-
ual may differ from the actual
screen of the system depending
on availability of functions, con-
nected services subscription
status, and map data available
at the time this manual was pro-
duced.
The screens in this manual will
also differ if the screen theme
settings have been changed.
(Theme setting: P. 6 7 )
In some situations when chang-
ing between screens, it may
take longer than normal for the
screen to change, the screen
may be blank momentarily or
noise may be displayed.
Please be aware that the con-
tent of this manual may be dif-
ferent from the system in some
cases, such as when the sys-
tem’s software is updated.
The company names and prod-
uct names appearing on this
manual are trademarks and reg-
istered trademarks of their
respective companies. 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 des-
tination.
The navigation system is
designed to select efficient
routes from your present start-
ing location to your destination.
The system is also designed to
direct you to a destination that is
unfamiliar to you in an efficient
manner. The system uses AISIN
AW maps. 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 calculated
routes.
The navigation system’s data-
base includes Point of Interest
categories to allow you to easily
select destinat
ions such as
restaurants and hotels. If a des-
tination is not in the database,
you can enter the street address

close to it and the system will
guide you there.
The system will provide both a
visual map and audio instruc-
tions. The audio instructions will
announce the distance remain-
ing and the direction to turn in
when approaching an intersec-
tion. These voice instructions
will help you keep your eyes on
the road and are timed to pro-
vide 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
satellite conditions, road config-
uration, vehicle condition or
other circumstances. For more
information on the limitations of
the system, refer to page 129.

instructions in this manual.
For your safety, some functions
may become inoperable when
driving. Unavailable screen but-
tons are dimmed.
While driving, listen to the voice
instructions as much as possible
and glance at the screen briefly
and only when it is safe. How-
ever, do not totally rely on voice
guidance. Use it just for refer-
ence. If the system cannot
determine the current position
correctly, there is a possibility of
incorrect, 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 fol-
lowing any instructions from the
system, look to see whether the
instruction can be done safely
and legally.This system cannot warn about
such things as the safety of an
area, condition of streets, and
availability of emergency ser-
vices. If unsure about the safety
of an area, do not drive into it.
Under no circumstances 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 the use of video and
navigation screens next to the
driver.
WA R N I N G
●For safety, the driver should not
operate the system while
he/she is driving. Insufficient
attention to the r
oad and traffic
may cause an accident.
●While driving, be sure to obey
the traffic regulations and main-
tain awareness o f the road con-
ditions. If a traffic sign on the
road has been changed, route
guidance may not have the
updated information such as the
direction of a one way street.
