navigation system TOYOTA PRIUS 2002 1.G Navigation Manual

i
Foreword
Thank you for your purchase of the Navigation System. Please read this \
manual carefully to ensure proper use. Keep this manual
stored in your vehicle at all times.
TheToyota Navigation System is one of the most technologically advanced vehicle ac\
cessories ever developed. The system receives satellit e
signals from the Global Positioning System (GPS) operated by the U. S. Department of Defense. Using these signals and other vehicle \
sen-
sors, the system can show you where you are and assist you in locating a desi\
red destination.
The navigation system is designed to select efficient routes from your present starting location to your destination. \
The syst em is designed
to direct you to a destination that is unfamiliar to you in an ef ficient manner. Map database is made based on the maps, 2001 edition of Denso,
whose information source comes from Nav Tech maps and GDT maps. The calculated routes are neither the shortest r\
outes nor routes without
traffic congestion. Your own personal local knowledge or ”short cut” may at times be fa\
ster than the calculated routes.
The navigation system’s database includes more than 50 points of interest categories to allow yo\
u to easily select destinations such as restau-
rants 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 route you there. The system will provide both a visual map and audio instructi\
ons. The audio instructions will announce the distance and
direction to go when you are approaching a fork or intersection. These voice inst\
ructions will help you keep your eyes on the r oad 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 limitatio\
ns 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 4\
9 through 51.

0UE003
To use your system as safely as possible, fol-
low all the safety tips shown below.
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 you are driving should al-
ways be the safe operation of your vehicle.
While you are driving, be sure to observe all
traffic regulations. Before attempting to use this system while
you are driving, learn how to use it and be-
come thoroughly familiar with it. Read the
entire Navigation System Manual to make
sure you understand the system. Do not al-
low others to use this system until they have
read and understood these and other in-
structions 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
follow the traffic regulations and
keep the road condition in mind. 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.

You can change the orientation of the
map from Northup to Headingup by
touching the direction symbol at the top
left of the screen.Northup symbol
Regardless of the direction of vehicle travel,
North is always up.
Headingup symbol
The direction of the vehicle travel is always
up. A red arrow indicates North. This navigation system calculates the
current vehicle position using satellite
signals, various vehicle signals, map
data, etc. However,
the accurate position
may not be shown depending on the sat-
ellite condition, road configuration, ve-
hicle condition or other circumstances.
The Global Positioning System (GPS) devel-
oped and operated by the U.S. Department
of Defense provides an accurate current ve-
hicle position using 3 to 4 satellites. The GPS
system has a certain level of inaccuracy built
in for security reasons. While the navigation
system will compensate for this most of the
time, occasional positioning errors up to 300
feet can and should be expected. Generally,
position errors will be corrected within a few
seconds.

1UE087a
When your vehicle is receiving signals from
the satellites, the “GPS” mark appears at the
top left of the screen.
The GPS signal may be physically ob-
structed, leading to inaccurate vehicle posi-
tion on the map display. Tunnels, tall build-
ings, trucks, or even the placement of
objects on the instrument panel may obstruct
the GPS signals.
The installation of window tinting may also
obstruct the GPS signals. Most window tint-
ing contains some metallic content that will
interfere with the GPS signal reception. We
recommend not to use the window tinting on
vehicles equipped with navigation systems. The GPS satellites may not send signals due
to repairs or improvements being made to
them.
Even when the navigation system is receiv-
ing good GPS signals, the vehicle position
may not be shown accurately or inappropri-
ate route guidance may occur in some
cases.

When driving on a small angled Y −
shaped road.
 When driving on a spiral road.
 When driving on a slippery road such as
in sand, gravel, snow, etc.
 When driving on a long straight road.
 When freeway and surface streets run in
parallel.
 After moving by ferry or vehicle carrier.
 When a long route is searched during high
speed driving.
 When driving without setting the current
position calibration correctly.
 After repeating a change of directions by
going forward and backward, or turning
on a turntable in the parking lot.
 When leaving a covered parking lot or
parking garage.
 When a roof carrier is installed.
 When driving with the tire chains installed.
 When the tires are worn.
 After replacing a tire or tires.
(a) Accurate current vehicle
p
osition may not be shown in
the following cases:

When using tires that are smaller or larger
than the factory specifications.
 When the tire pressure in any of the four
tires is not correct.
INFORMATION
If your vehicle cannot receive GPS sig-
nals, you can correct the current posi-
tion manually. For the information on
setting the current position calibration,
see page 77.
When turning at a wrong intersection off
the designated route guidance
 If you set more than one destinations,
auto reroute will display a route returning
to the destination on the previous route
when you try to skip any of the destina-
tions.
 When turning at an intersection, there is
no route guidance.
 When passing through the intersection,
there is no route guidance.
 During automatic rerouting, the route
guidance may not be available for the next
turn to the right or left.
 It may take a long time to operate auto re-
route during high speed driving. In auto
reroute, a detour route may be shown.
 After auto reroute, the route may not be
changed.
 An unnecessary U −turn may be shown or
announced.
 A location may have multiple names and
the system will announce one or more. 
Some routes may not be searched.
 If the route to your destination includes
gravel, unpaved roads or alleys, the route
guidance may not be shown.
 Your destination point might be shown on
the opposite side of the street.
 When a portion of the route has regula-
tions prohibiting the entry of the vehicle
that vary by time or season or other rea-
son.
 The road and map data stored in your
navigation system may not be complete
or may not be the latest release.
When replacing the tire(s), do the calibra-
tion. See page 77 for detailed information.

are two types of areas available for
route guidance. (See the following
pages.) In one type of area, primarily
around metropolitan centers, detailed
route guidance is available for the entire
area. In the other type of area, all roads
are displayed on the map but route guid-
ance is limited. The navigation route
might lack precision because the data (no
right turns, oneway traffic, etc.) is not
complete. It is still possible to reach the
destination by following the arrow direc-
tion and distance as shown on the bottom
left of the screen. The arrow points in the
direction of the destination. The distance
shown is as measured in a straight line
from the current vehicle position to the
destination area.
1UE088a
In order to provide you with accurate map in-
formation as much as possible, we are al-
ways gathering information such as road re-
pairs and doing site investigation. However,
the names of roads, streets, facilities, and
their locations are often changed. In some
places, construction on roads may be in pro-
gress. For that reason, information on some
areas in this system might be different from
the actual location.
