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 0 )
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

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,

■When any part of the vehi-
cle sags
When any part of the vehicle 
sags due to the number of pas-
sengers or the distribution of the 
load, there is a margin of error 
between the guide lines on the 
screen and the actual dis-
tance/course on the road.
A margin of errorWhen there are three-dimen-
sional objects (such as vehicle 
bumpers, etc.) nearby in posi-
tions higher than the surface of 
the road, take extra care when 
using the following.
Since the panoramic view pro-
cess and display images based 
on flat road surfaces, it cannot 
depict the position of three-
dimension objects (such as 
vehicle bumpers, etc.) that are 
in positions higher than the sur-
face of the road. For example, 
even though it appears that 
there is space between the 
bumpers of the two vehicles in 
the illustration below and they 
are not likely to collide, in reality, 
a collision is about to occur.

dimensional objects

●When a sensor indicator on the 
intuitive parking assist display 
illuminates in red or a buzzer 
sounds continuously, be sure to 
check the area around the vehi-
cle immediately and do not pro-

been ensured, otherwise an 
unexpected accident may occur.
