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 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 destinations such as
restaurants and hotels. If a des-
tination is not in the database,

instructions in this manual.
For your safety, some functions
may become inoperable when
driving. Unavailable screen but-
tons are dimmed.
To use this system in the safest
possible manner, follow all the
safety tips shown below.
This system is intended to assist
in reaching the destination and,
if used properly, can do so. The
driver is solely responsible for
the safe operation of your vehi-
cle and the safety of your pas-
sengers.
Do not use any feature of this
system to the extent it becomes
a distraction and prevents safe
driving. The first priority while
driving should always be the
safe operation of the vehicle.
While driving, be sure to
observe all traffic regulations.
Prior to the actual use of this
system, learn how to use it and
become thoroughly familiar with
it. Read the entire manual to make sure you understand the
system. Do not allow other peo-
ple to use this system until they
have read and understood the
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
