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.

Navigation system

3-5.Tips for the navigation system
The Global Positioning System
(GPS) developed and operated
by the U.S. Department of
Defense provides an accurate
current position, normally using
4 or more satellites, and in some
case 3 satellites. The GPS sys-
tem has a certain level of inac-
curacy. While the navigation
system compensates for this
most of the time, occasional
positioning errors of up to 300 ft.
(100 m) can and should be
expected. Generally, position
errors will be corrected within a
few seconds.
When the vehicle is not receiv-
ing signals from satellites, the
unreceived GPS mark appears
on the map screen. When the
vehicle is receiving the signals,
the unreceived GPS mark does not appear on the map screen.
The GPS signal may be physi-
cally obstructed, leading to inac-
curate vehicle position on the
map screen. Tunnels, tall build-
ings, trucks, or even the place-
ment of objects on the
instrument panel may obstruct
the GPS signals.
The GPS satellites may not
send signals due to repairs or
improvements being made to
them.
Even when the navigation sys-
tem is receiving clear GPS sig-
nals, the vehicle position may
not be shown accurately or inap-
propriate route guidance may
occur in some cases.

Accurate current position may
not be shown in the following
cases:
• When driving on a small angled
Y-shaped road.
• When driving on a winding road.
• When driving on a slippery road such as in sand, gravel, snow,
etc.
GPS (Global Position-
ing System)
This navigation system cal-
culates the current position
using satellite signals, vari-
ous vehicle signals, map
data, etc. However, an accu-
rate position may not be
shown depending on satel-
lite conditions, road config-
uration, vehicle condition or
other circumstances.
Limitations of the naviga-
tion system
NOTICE
●The installation of window tint-
ing may obstruct the GPS sig-
nals. Most window tinting
contains some metallic content
that will interf ere with GPS sig-
nal reception of the antenna in
the instrument panel. We advise
against the use of window tint-
ing on vehicles equipped with
navigation systems.
