Example of symptom
Action/symptom
GPS ROM
malfunction
GPS RAM
malfunction Contents of ROM (or RAM) in GPS substrate are mal-
functioning.
+
Location detection accuracy of the navigation system
will deteriorate, depending on the malfunctioning area
in the memory, because GPS cannot make correct
positioning. (Location correction using GPS is not per-
formed.)
+
Perform self-diagnosis.
+ When the NAVI control unit is judged normal by self-
diagnosis, the symptom may be intermittent, caused
by strong radio interference.
GPS RTC
malfunction Clock IC in GPS substrate is malfunctioning.
+
Correct time may not be displayed.
+ After the power is turned on, the system always takes
some time until GPS positioning becomes possible.
(The GPS receiver starts positioning without re-col-
lecting the whole satellite information when it judged
the data stored in the receiver is correct.)
+ Correct time of error occurrence may not be stored in
the ªHistory of Errorsº.
+
Perform self-diagnosis.
+ When the NAVI control unit is judged normal by self-
diagnosis, the symptom may be intermittent, caused
by strong radio interference.
GPS antenna
disconnected Malfunctioning connection between GPS substrate in
NAVI control unit and GPS antenna.
+Navigation location detection performance has dete-
riorated. (Location correction using GPS is not per-
formed.)
+ GPS receiving status remains gray.
+
Perform self-diagnosis.
+ When connection between NAVI control unit and
GPS antenna is judged normal by self-diagnosis, the
symptom may be intermittent, caused by impact or
vibration.
Low voltage of
GPS The power voltage supplied to the GPS circuit board has
decreased.
+Navigation location detection performance has dete-
riorated. (Location correction using GPS is not per-
formed.)
+ GPS receiving status remains gray.
+
Perform self-diagnosis.
+ When connection between NAVI control unit and

Example of Symptoms Judged Not Malfunction
BASIC OPERATION
Symptom Cause Remedy
No image is shown. Display brightness adjustment is set fully to
DARK side. Adjust the display brightness.
No guide sound is heard. Audio
guide volume is too low or too high. Volume control is set to OFF, MIN or MAX. Adjust the audio guide volume.
Audio guidance is not available while the
vehicle is driving on a dark pink route.
System is not malfunction.
Screen is too dark. Motion of the
image is too slow. Temperature inside the vehicle is low. Wait until the temperature inside the vehicle
reaches the proper temperature.
Small black or bright spots appear
on the screen. Symptom peculiar to a liquid crystal display. System is not malfunction.
VEHICLE MARK
Symptom Cause Remedy
Map screen and BIRDVIEW TName
of the place vary with the screen. 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 not be dis-
played every time on account of the data pro-
cessing.
System is not malfunction.
Vehicle mark is not positioned cor-
rectly. Vehicle is transferred by ferry or by towing
after its ignition switch is turned to OFF. Drive the vehicle for a while in the GPS sat-
ellite signal receiving condition.
Screen will not switch to nighttime
mode after the lighting switch is
turned ON. The daytime screen is selected by the
ªSWITCH SCREENSº when the last time the
screen dimming setting is done.
Switching between daytime/nighttime screen
may be inhibited by the automatic illumination
adjustment function.
Perform screen dimming and select the night-
time screen by ªSWITCH SCREENSº.
Map screen will not scroll in accor-
dance with the vehicle travel. Current location is not displayed. Push ªMAPº switch to display the current
location.
Vehicle mark will not be shown. Current location is not displayed. Push ªMAPº switch to display the current
location.
Accuracy indicator (GPS satellite
mark) on the map screen stays gray. GPS satellite signal is intercepted because
the vehicle is in or behind a building.
Move the vehicle out to an open space.
GPS satellite signal cannot be received
because an obstacle is placed on top of the
display. Do not place anything in the center on top of
the display.
GPS satellites are located badly. Wait until the location becomes better.
Vehicle location accuracy is low. Accuracy indicator (GPS satellite mark) on
the map screen stays gray.
Current location is not determined.
Vehicle speed setting by the vehicle speed
pulse has been deviated (advanced or
retarded) from the actual vehicle speed
because tire chain is ®tted or the system has
been used on another vehicle. Drive the vehicle for a while [for approx. 30
minutes at approx. 30 km/h (19 MPH)] and
the deviation will be automatically adjusted. If
advancement or retard still occur, perform the
distance adjustment by ªCONFIRMATION/
ADJUSTMENTº mode of diagnosis function.
Map data has error or omission. (Vehicle
mark is always deviated to the same posi-
tion.) As a rule, an updated map DVD-ROM will be
released once a year.

Nickel Metal Hydride Battery Replacement
CONSULT-II contains a nickel metal hydride battery. When replacing the battery obey the following:
WARNING:
Replace the nickel metal hydride battery with Genuine CONSULT-II battery only. Use of another bat-
tery may present a risk of ®re or explosion. The battery may present a ®re or chemical burn hazard if
mistreated. Do not recharge, disassemble or dispose of in ®re.
Keep the battery out of reach of children and discard used battery conforming to the local regulations.
