Place In a parking lot
SEL709V
When driving in a parking lot, or
other location where there are no
roads on the map, matching may
place the vehicle mark on a nearby
road. When the vehicle returns to the
road, the vehicle mark may have
deviated from the correct location.
When driving in circle or turning the
steering wheel repeatedly, direction
errors accumulate, and the vehicle
mark may deviate from the correct
location.
If after travelling about 10 km (6
miles) the correct location has not
been restored, perform location cor-
rection and, if necessary, direction
correction.
Turn table
SEL710V
When the ignition switch is OFF, the
navigation system cannot get the
signal from the gyroscope (angular
speed sensor). Therefore, the dis-
played direction may be wrong and
the correct road may not be easily
returned to after rotating the vehicle
on a turntable with the ignition OFF.
Slippery roads On snow, wet roads, gravel, or other
roads where tires may slip easily,
accumulated mileage errors may
cause the vehicle mark to deviate
from the correct road.
Slopes When parking in sloped garages,
when travelling on banked roads, or
in other cases where the vehicle
turns when tilted, an error in the turn-
ing angle will occur, and the vehicle
mark may deviate from the road.
Map data Road not displayed on the map
screen
SEL699V
When driving on new roads or other
roads not displayed on the map
screen, map matching does not func-
tion correctly and matches the loca-
tion to a nearby road. When the
vehicle returns to a road which is on
the map, the vehicle mark may devi-
ate from the correct road.
Different road pattern (Changed due
to repair)
ELK0201D
If the road pattern stored in the map
data and the actual road pattern are
different, map matching does not
function correctly and matches the
location to a nearby road. The
vehicle mark may deviate from the
correct road.
Vehicle Use of tire chains When tire chains are used, the mile-
age is not correctly detected, and the
vehicle mark may deviate from the
correct road.Drive the vehicle for a while. If the
distance is still deviated, adjust it by
using the distance adjustment func-
tion. (If the tire chain is removed,
recover the original value.)
