Possible cause:
Ð: Vehicle running ---: IndicationDrive condition Service procedure
Loca-
tionParking lot or similar area
SEL709V
When the vehicle is driven in a park-
ing lot or similar area, such as in an
area not normally marked as a road
on map, during map matching, the
system may select nearby roads.
This error may continue after the
vehicle exits the parking area and
begins to run on ordinary roads.
Vehicle operation in a parking area
may involve frequent turns and up
and/or down operation. Directional
sensing errors may occur leading to
subsequent route and position mis-
takes.If the position marker does
not move to the correct posi-
tion even after the vehicle
has been driven approxi-
mately 10 km (6 miles), per-
form ªStore placeº. If
required, also perform
ªAdjust Current Locationº
MODE (EL-421). Turntable
SEL710V
When the ignition switch is OFF (the
usual situation when the vehicle is
on a turntable), the navigation sys-
tem receives no data from the gyro
(angular velocity sensor). When the
turntable rotates, no directional
change is sensed. During subse-
quent vehicle operation, directional
and route errors may occur.
Position marker displays a completely different location
In circumstances such as those described below, GPS signal reception conditions may result in an erroneous
position of the position marker. Perform ªAdjust Current Locationº MODE (EL-421).
NOTE:
+When GPS satellite signal reception conditions are poor, the position of position marker may be errone-
ous. If correction is not made immediately, the position marker error will be compounded and a completely
different location will be indicated. In an area where GPS satellite signal reception conditions are good,
the system can be returned to normal operation.
+The vehicle is driven aboard a car ferry or is towed for some distance with the ignition switch OFF. Vehicle
movement is not sensed. Current location calculations do not occur and current location data does not
appear on the display screen. Use GPS to accurately determine actual vehicle position. The system can
be returned to normal operation when the GPS satellite signal reception conditions are good.
Position marker jumps
In circumstances such as those described below, the position marker may jump as a result of automatic cur-
rent location corrections made by the system.
During map matching
+During map matching, the position marker may jump from one spot to another. In this case, it may be cor-
rected to a wrong road or to an area where no road exist.
GPS location correcting
+Vehicle current location is sensed using the GPS data. Positional calibration is performed. The position
marker continues to be in the wrong position. It may jump about from one area of the screen to another.
In this case, it may be corrected to a wrong road or to an area where no road exist.
Position marker indicates that the vehicle is in the middle of an ocean or large river
The navigation system does not distinguish between land and water surfaces. In some cases, a position
marker error may cause the display to show the vehicle above a water surface.
Position of position marker varies when the vehicle is repeatedly operated on the same road
Driving lane and steering wheel movement results in a variety of different positions of the position mark when
traveling on the same road based on sensing results by the GPS antenna and gyro (angular velocity sensor).
Slow locational correction using map matching
+The map matching function requires verification of local data. To make the map matching function, some
distance needs to be driven.
+The map matching function may not provide accurate performance in an area where there are numerous
parallel roads. Until the system judges the road characteristics, an incorrect position may be shown.

and brake master cylinder.
+When lifting the engine, always use engine slingers in a
safe manner.
+When removing drive shaft, be careful not to damage
grease seal of transaxle.
+Before separating engine and transaxle, remove crank-
shaft position sensor (POS) from the cylinder block
assembly.
+Always be extra careful not to damage edge of crankshaft
position sensor (POS), or signal plate teeth.
Engine cannot be removed separately from transaxle. Remove
engine with transaxle as an assembly.
