Error history Diagnosis results previously stored in the memory
(before turning ignition switch ON) are displayed in this
mode. Time and location when/where the errors
occurred are also displayed.EL-400
Longitude & Latitude Display the map. Use the joystick to adjust position. Lon-
gitude and latitude will be displayed.EL-407
Adjust the angle Turning angle of the vehicle on the display can be
adjusted in this mode.EL-408
Speed CalibrationUnder ordinary conditions, the navigation system dis-
tance measuring function will automatically compensate
for minute decreases in wheel and tire diameter caused
by tire wear or low pressure. Speed calibration immedi-
ately restores system accuracy in cases such as when
distance calibration is needed because of the use of tire
chains in inclement weather.EL-409
Initialize Location This mode is for initializing the current location. Use
when the vehicle is transported a long distance on a
trailer, etc.EL-433

tor (inside the display & NAVI control
unit) is sending an oscillation frequency
that is greater or less than the set value.A location error occurs. Strong electro-
magnetic wave interference may have
occurred. The GPS antenna may be in a
very hot or very cold environment. This
is usually a temporary malfunction.Ð
