Self-Diagnosis FunctionEKS00F32
DESCRIPTION
Diagnosis function consists of the self-diagnosis mode performed automatically and the CONFIRMATION/
ADJUSTMENT mode operated manually.
Self-diagnosis mode checks for connections between the units constituting this system, analyzes each
individual unit at the same time, and displays the results on the LCD screen.
CONFIRMATION/ADJUSTMENT mode is used to perform trouble diagnosis that require operation and
judgment by an operator (trouble that cannot be automatically judged by the system), to check/change the
set value, and to display the History of Errors of the navigation system.
DIAGNOSIS ITEM
Mode Description
Self-diagnosis
NAVI Control unit diagnosis (DVD-ROM drive will not be diagnosed when no
map DVD-ROM is in it.).
Performs diagnosis of each unit and connections between control unit and
GPS antenna, as well as between control unit and each unit.
Confirmation /
AdjustmentDisplayColor tone and shading of the screen can be checked by the display of a color
bar and a gray scale.
Vehicle signalsAnalyzes the following vehicle signals: Vehicle speed signal, light signal, igni-
tion switch signal, and reverse signal.
NavigationDisplay Longitude
& LatitudeDisplay the map. Use the joystick to adjust position. Longitude and latitude will
be displayed.
Speed CalibrationUnder ordinary conditions, the navigation system distance measuring function
will automatically compensate for minute decreases in wheel and tire diameter
caused by tire wear or low pressure. Speed calibration immediately restores
system accuracy in cases such as when distance calibration is needed
because of the use of tire chains in inclement weather.
Angle AdjustmentCorrects difference between actual turning angle of a vehicle and turning
angle of the car mark on the display.
Initialize LocationThis mode is for initializing the current location. Use when the vehicle is trans-
ported a long distance on a trailer, etc.
History of ErrorsDiagnosis 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.

Initialize Location
Description
Location data for GPS in the Center control unit is intialized in Europe by this mode. Then it is possible for
Center control unit to receive GPS signals for short time.
How to perform “Initialize Location” mode
1. select “Initialize Location”, and push “ENTER”.
2. A message “Plese wait.” is displayed and then backs to another
display of “Confirmation/Adjustment” mode.
NOTE:
To continue GPS initialized operation, operate as follows back to
“Map” screen.
–Push “BACK” button teice.
–Push “MAP” button.
After above operation, GPS indicator changes to green color
within half a minute, unless improper GPS located condition.
This operation should be performed in out side field.

ROUTE SEARCHING
NOTE:
Except for the ordinance-designated cities and the prefectural capitals (Applicable areas may be changed in the updated map disc.) Symptom Cause Remedy
No route is shown. No road to be searched is found around the des-
tination.Find wider road (orange road or wider)
nearby and reset the destination and passing
points onto it. Take care of the traveling
direction when there are separate up and
down roads.
Starting point and the destination are too close. Set the destination at more distant point.
Conditional traffic regulation (day of the week/
time of the day) is set at the area around the cur-
rent position or the destination.Turn the time-regulating search conditions
OFF. Turn “Avoid regulation time” in the
search conditions OFF.
Indicated route is intermittent. In some areas, highways (gray routes) are not
used for the search
(Note) Therefore, the route to
the current position or the passing points may be
intermittent.System is not malfunction.
When the vehicle has passed the
recommended route, it is deleted
from the screen.A recommended route is controlled by each sec-
tion. When the vehicle has passed the passing
point 1, then the map data from the starting point
up to the passing point 1 will be deleted. (The
data may remain undeleted in some area.)System is not malfunction.
Detouring route is recommended. In some areas, highways (gray routes) are not
used for the search. (Note). Therefore, detour
route may be recommended.Set the route closer to the basic route (gray
route).
A detour route may be shown when some traffic
regulation (one-way traffic, etc.) is set at the area
around the starting point or the destination.Slightly move the starting point or the desti-
nation, or set the passing point on the route
of your choice.
In the area where highways (gray routes) are
used for the search, left turn has priority around
the current position and the destination (passing
points). For this reason, the recommended route
may be detouring.System is not malfunction.
Landmarks on the map do not
match the actual ones.This can be happen due to omission or error in
the map data.As a rule, an updated map DVD-ROM will be
released once a year. Wait until the latest
map has become available.
Recommended route is far from
the starting point, passing points,
and destination.Starting point, passing points, and destination of
the route guide were set far from the desired
points because route searching data around
these area were not stored.Reset the destination onto the road nearby. If
this road is one of the highways (gray
routes), an ordinary road nearby may be dis-
played as the recommended route.

NAVIGATION SYSTEM
THE CURRENT LOCATION MARK IS IN A RIVER OR THE SEA
The navigation system moves the current location mark with no distinction between land and rivers or sea. If
the location mark is somehow out of place, it may appear that the vehicle is driving in a river or the sea.
WHEN DRIVING ON THE SAME ROAD, SOMETIMES THE CURRENT-LOCATION MARK IS IN
THE RIGHT PLACE AND SOMETIMES IT IS THE WRONG PLACE
The conditions of the GPS antenna (GPS data) and gyroscope (angular speed sensor) change gradually.
Depending on the road traveled and the operation of the steering wheel, the location detection results will be
different. Therefore, even on a road on which the location has never been wrong, conditions may cause the
vehicle mark to deviate.
LOCATION CORRECTION BY MAP MATCHING IS SLOW
The map matching function needs to refer to the data of the surrounding area. It is necessary to drive
some distance for the function to work.
Because map matching operates on this principle, when there are many roads running in similar direc-
tions in the surrounding area, no matching determination may be made. The location may not be cor-
rected until some special feature is found.
ALTHOUGH THE GPS RECEIVING DISPLAY IS GREEN, THE VEHICLE MARK DOES NOT
RETURN TO THE CORRECT LOCATION
The GPS accuracy has an error of about 10 m (30 ft). In some cases the current-location mark may not be
on the correct street, even when GPS location-correction is done.
The navigation system compares the results of GPS location detection with the results from map-match-
ing location detection. The one which is determined to have higher accuracy is used.
GPS location correction may not be performed when the vehicle is stopped.
THE NAME OF THE CURRENT PLACE IS NOT DISPLAYED
The current place name may not be displayed if there are no place names displayed on the map screen.
CONTENTS OF THE DISPLAY DIFFER FOR THE BIRDVIEW® AND THE (FLAT) MAP SCREEN
Difference of the BIRDVIEW
® screen from the flat map screen are as follows.
The current place name displays names which are primarily in the direction of vehicle travel.
The amount of time before the vehicle travel or turn angle is updated on the screen is longer than for the
(flat) map display.
The conditions for display of place names, roads, and other data are different for nearby areas and for
more distant areas.
Some thinning of the character data is done to prevent the display becoming to complex. In some cases
and in some locations, the display contents may differ.
The same place name, street name, etc. may be displayed multiple times.
