Example of Symptoms Judged Not MalfunctionAKS007KH
BASIC OPERATION
VEHICLE MARK
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.
Symptom Cause Remedy
Map screen and BIRDVIEW™
Name 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 displayed every time on account of the data
processing. 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 “SWITCH
SCREENS” when the last time the screen dim-
ming setting is done.
Switching between daytime/nighttime screens
may be inhibited by the automatic illumination
adjustment function. Perform screen dimming and select the
nighttime screen by “SWITCH SCREENS”.
Map screen will not scroll in accor-
dance with the vehicle travel. Current location is not displayed. Press “MAP” button to display the current
location.
Vehicle mark will not be shown. Current location is not displayed. Press “MAP” button 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 fit-
ted or the system has been used on another vehi-
cle. 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 CONFIRMA-
TION/ADJUSTMENT mode of diagnosis
function.
Map data has error or omission. (Vehicle mark is
always deviated to the same position.) As a rule, an updated map DVD-ROM will be
released once a year.

DESTINATION, PASSING POINTS, AND MENU ITEMS CANNOT BE SELECTED/SET
VOICE GUIDE
ROUTE SEARCH
Symptom Cause Remedy
Destination cannot be set. Destination to be set is on an expressway. Set the destination on an ordinary road.
Passing point is not searched
when re-searching the route. The vehicle has already passed the passing point,
or the system judged so. To include the passing points that have been
passed into the route again, set the route
again.
Route information will not be dis-
played. Route searching has not been done. Set the destination and perform route
searching.
Vehicle mark is not on the recommended route. Drive on the recommended route.
Route guide is turned OFF. Turn route guide ON.
Route information is not available on the dark pink
route. System is not malfunction.
After the route searching, no guide
sign will appear as the vehicle
goes near the entrance/exit to the
toll road. Vehicle mark is not on the recommended route.
(On the display, only guide signs related to the
recommended route will be shown.) Drive on the recommended route.
Automatic route searching is not
possible. Vehicle is driving on a highway (gray route), or no
recommended route is available. Drive on a road to be searched. Or re–
search the route manually. In this case, how-
ever, the whole route will be searched.
Performed automatic detour
search (or detour search). How-
ever, the result is the same as that
of the previous search. Performed search with every condition consid-
ered. However, the result is the same as that of
the previous search. System is not malfunction.
Passing points cannot be set. More than five passing points were set. Passing points can be set up to five. To stop at more than five points, perform sharing in
several steps.
When setting the route, the start-
ing point cannot be selected. The current vehicle location is always set as the
starting point of a route. System is not malfunction.
Some menu items cannot be
selected. The vehicle is being driven. Stop the vehicle at a safe place and then
operate the system.
Symptom Cause Remedy
Voice guide will not operate. Note: Voice guide is only available at intersections that satisfy certain conditions . Therefore, guid-
ance may not be given even when the route on the
map changes direction. System is not malfunction.
The vehicle is not on the recommended route. Return to the recommended route or re- search the route.
Voice guide is turned OFF. Turn voice guide ON.
Route guide is turned OFF. Turn route guide ON.
Voice guide does not match the
actual road pattern. Voice guide may vary with the direction to which
the vehicle is turn and the connection of the road
to other roads. Drive in conformity to the actual traffic rules.
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 location or the destination. Turn the time-regulating search conditions
OFF. Turn “Avoid regulation time” in the
search conditions OFF.

CURRENT LOCATION MARK SHOWS A POSITION WHICH IS COMPLETELY WRONG
In the following cases, the current-location mark may appear on completely different position in the map
depending on the GPS satellite signal receiving conditions. In this case, perform location correction and direc-
tion correction.

When location correction has not been done
–If the receiving conditions of the GPS satellite signal is poor, if the current-location mark becomes out of
place, it may move to a completely different location and not come back if location correction is not done.
The position will be corrected if the GPS signal can be received.

When the vehicle has traveled by ferry, or when the vehicle has been being towed
–Because calculation of the current location cannot be done when traveling with the ignition OFF, for exam-
ple when traveling by ferry or when being towed, the location before travel is displayed. If the precise loca-
tion can be detected with GPS, the location will be corrected.
CURRENT-LOCATION MARK JUMPS
In the following cases, the current-location mark may appear to jump as a result of automatic correction of the
current location.

When map matching has been done
–If the current location and the current-location mark are different when map matching is done, the current-
location mark may seem to jump. At this time, the location may be “corrected” to the wrong road or to a
location which is not on a road.

When GPS location correction has been done
–If the current location and the current-location mark are different when the location is corrected using GPS
measurements, the current-location mark may seem to jump. At this time, the location may be “corrected”
to a location which is not on a road.
Precautions
for driving Just after the engine is started
If the vehicle is driven off just after the
engine is started when the gyroscope
(angular speed sensor) correction is not
completed, the vehicle can lose its direc-
tion and may have deviated from the cor-
rect location. Wait for a short while before
driving after starting the engine.
Continuous driving without stopping When driving long distances without stop- ping, direction errors may accumulate, and
the current-location mark may deviate from
the correct road. Stop and adjust the orientation.
Abusive driving Spinning the wheels or engaging in other kinds of abusive driving may result in the
system being unable perform correct
detection, and may cause the vehicle mark
to deviate from the correct road. If after traveling about 10 km (6
miles) the correct location has
not been restored, perform
location correction and, if nec-
essary, direction correction.
How to cor-
rect location Position correction accuracy
If the accuracy of location settings is poor,
accuracy may be reduced when the correct
road cannot be found, particularly in places
where there are many roads. Enter in the road displayed on
the screen with an accuracy of
approx. 1mm.
Caution: Whenever possible,
use detailed map for the cor-
rection.
Direction when location is corrected
If the accuracy of location settings during
correction is poor, accuracy may be
reduced afterwards. Perform direction correction.
