(9) When the vehicle runs on the snowy road or a
mountain path with the chains installed or using a
spare tire, the current vehicle position mark may
deviate from the correct position.
(10) When a tire is changed, the current vehicle position
mark may deviate from the correct position.
HINT:
Diameter of the tire may change, causing a speed sensor
error.
Performing the ºtire changeº in calibration mode will allow
the system to correct the current vehicle position faster.
2. Radio and navigation assy outline
Conventionally, 2 separate devices, a ºradio and display assyº and a ºnavigation ECUº are used. This model
has adopted a new type, combining these devices into a single unit.

3. Navigation system outline
(a) Vehicle position tracking methods
It is essential that the navigation system correctly tracks the current vehicle position and displays it on
the map. There are 2 methods to track the current vehicle position: autonomous (dead reckoning) and
GPS* (satellite) navigation. Both navigation methods are used in conjunction with each other.
*GPS (Global Positioning System)

Description
Vehicle Position Calculation
The navigation ECU calculates the current vehicle position (direction and current
position) using the direction deviation signal from the gyro sensor and the running
distance signal from the vehicle speed sensor and creates the driving route.
Map Display processingThe navigation ECU displays the vehicle track on the map by processing the ve-
hicle position data, vehicle running track, and map data from the map disc.
Map MatchingThe map data from the map disc is compared to the vehicle position and running
track data. Then, the vehicle position is matched with the nearest road.
GPS Correction
The vehicle position is matched to the position measured by GPS. Then, the mea-
surement position data from the GPS unit is compared with the vehicle position and
running track data. If the position is widely different, the GPS measurement position
is used.
Distance Correction
The running distance signal from the vehicle speed sensor includes the error
caused by tire wear and slippage between the tires and road surface. Distance
correction is performed to account for this. The navigation ECU automatically off-
sets the running distance signal to make up for the difference between it and the
distance data of the map. The offset is automatically updated.
HINT:
The combination of autonomous and GPS navigation makes it possible to display the vehicle position even
when the vehicle is in places where the GPS radio wave cannot receive a signal. When only autonomous
navigation is used, however, the mapping accuracy may slightly decline.

(b) Autonomous navigation
This method determines the relative vehicle position based on the running track determined by the
gyro and vehicle speed sensors located in the navigation ECU.
(1) Gyro sensor
Calculates the direction by detecting angular velocity. It is located in the radio and navigation
assy.
(2) Vehicle speed sensor
Used to calculate the vehicle running distance.
(c) GPS navigation (Satellite navigation)
This method detects the absolute vehicle position using radio wave from a GPS satellite.
* GPS satellites were launched by the U.S. Department of Defence for military purposes.

(d) Map matching
The current driving route is calculated by autonomous navigation (according to the gyro sensor and
vehicle speed sensor) and GPS navigation. This information is then compared with possible road
shapes from the map data in the map disc and the vehicle position is set onto the most appropriate
road.
(e) Touch switch
Touch switches are touch±sensitive (interactive) switches operated by touching the screen. When a
switch is pressed, the outer glass bends in to contact the inner glass at the pressed position. By doing
this, the voltage ratio is measured and the pressed position is detected.

Abnormal noise occurs
INSPECTION PROCEDURE
1 Check speaker installation
CHECK:
Check if each speaker is securely installed.
OK:
Each speaker is securely installed.
HINT:
The radio is equipped with a noise prevention system that blocks only excessively loud noise. If loud noise
occurs, check that all wiring is proper and that the antenna installation part ground and noise±prevention
equipment are installed.
Conditions under which noise occursNoise type
Noise increases when the accelerator pedal is depressed, but stops when
the engine is stopped.Generator noise
Noise occurs during A/C or heater operation.Blower motor noise
Noise occurs when the vehicle accelerates rapidly on an unpaved road or
after the ignition switch is turned on.Fuel pump noise
Noise occurs when the horn switch is pressed and released or when pressed
and held.Horn noise
Quiet noise is occurs while the engine is running, but stops when the engine
is stopped.Ignition noise
Noise occurs synchronously with the blink of the turn signal.Flasher noise
Noise occurs during window washer operation.Washer noise
Noise occurs while the engine is running, and continues even after the engine
is stopped.Water temperature sensor noise
Noise occurs during wiper operation.Wiper noise
Noise occurs when the brake pedal is depressed.Stop light switch noise
Others.Static electricity stored on the vehicle
HINT:
Identify the condition under which the noise occurs, and check the noise filter on the relevant part.
First ensure that the noise is not coming from outside. Failure to do so makes noise source detection
difficult and may lead to a misdiagnosis.
Noise should be removed in descending order of loudness.
NG Install it properly.
OK
