Foreword
Thank you for your purchase of the Navigation System. Please read this manual ca refully to ensure proper use. Keep this
manual stored in your vehicle at all times.
The Toyota Navigation System is one of the most technologica lly advanced vehicle accessories ever developed. The system
receives satellite signals from the Global Po sitioning System (GPS) operated by the U.S. Department of Defense. Using these
signals and other vehicle sensors, the syst em can show you where you are and assist you in locating a desired destination.
The navigation system is designed to select efficient routes from your present starting location to your destination. The syste m is
designed to direct you to a destination that is unfamiliar to yo u in efficient manners. The system uses the maps of DENSO based
on NAVTECH maps, GDT maps and infoUSA POIs. The calculated rout es are neither the shortest routes nor routes without traffic
congestion. Your own personal local knowledge or “short cut” may at times be faster than the calculated routes.
The navigation system’s database includes about 50 point of interest categories to allow you to easily select destinations such as
restaurants and banks. If a destination is not in the database, you can enter the str eet address or a major intersection close to it
and the system will route you there. The sy stem will provide both a visual map and audio instructions. The audio instructions will
announce the distance and direction to go when you are approaching a fork or intersection. These voice instructions will help you
keep your eyes on the road and are ti med to provide enough time to allow you to maneuver, change lanes or slow down.
Please be aware that all current vehicle navigation systems have certain li mitations that may affect their ability to
perform properly. The accuracy of the vehicle’s position depends on the satellite condition, road configuration, vehicle
condition or other circumstances. For more information on the limitations of the system, refer to pages 59 through 61.
