16 There are two types of areas available for
route guidance. In one type of area, pri-
marily around metropolitan centers, de-
tailed route guidance is available for the
entire area. In the other type of area, all
roads are displayed on the map but route
guidance is limited. The navigation route
might lack precision because the data (no
right turns, one way traffic, etc.) is not
complete. It is still possible to reach the
destination by following the arrow direc-
tion and distance as shown on the bottom
left of the screen. The arrow points in the
direction of the destination. The distance
shown is as measured in a straight line
from the current vehicle position to the
destination area.
In order to provide you with as accurate map
information as possible, we are always gath-
ering information such as road repairs and
doing site investigation. However, the names
of roads, streets, facilities, and their locations
are often changed. In some places, construc-
tion on roads may be in progress. For that
reason, information on some areas in this
system might be different from the actual
location.
The map database is normally updated once
a year. Contact your dealer for information
about the availability and pricing of an
update.
To confirm the database version and
disc coverage area
1. Push the
“MENU” button.
2. Touch the “Map DVD” switch.
Make sure the version of the database on this
screen. (The database version on the screen
above may be different from the actual
screen.)
17 To display the disc coverage area, touch the
“Covered Area” switch. Confirm the
covered area on the screen.
Contact your dealer to find out if there is a
more recent update released.

Destination input —
Push the “DEST” button and the “Des-
tination” screen appears.
You can use one of 13 different methods to
enter your destination. (See pages 22
through 37.)
INFORMATION
When inputting the destination, the
response to the switch may be slow.
The route for returning may not be the
same as that for going.
The route guidance to the destination
may not be the shortest route nor a
route without traffic congestion.
Route guidance may not be available
if there is no road data for the speci-
fied location.
When setting the destination on a
map with a scale larger than 0.5 mile
(800 m), the map scale changes to 0.5
mile (800 m) automatically. Set the
destination again.
To select an
“Address”, “POI
Name”
, “Freeway Ent./Exit”,
“Intersection” or “Phone #” in a
different area, it is necessary to
change the search area.
If you enter a destination, the road
nearest to the point you selected is
set as the destination.
CAUTION
While you are driving, be sure to obey
traffic regulations and keep the road
conditions in mind. If a traffic sign on
the road has been changed, the route
guidance may provide wrong informa-
tion.
— Selecting the search area
The “Destination” screen allows you to select
the area to search for your destination.
Touch the
“Change” switch on the
“Destination” screen to display a map of
the United States and Canada divided into
11 areas. See page 12 for map database in-
formation and updates.
Touch one of the “US1” through “CAN”switches to select a search area. Touch
the “OK” switch and the “Destination”
screen returns.

Trip information
Trip information such as driving distance,
average vehicle speed, fuel consumption,
etc. can be displayed on the screen.
Push the “INFO” button to display the
“Information menu” and touch the
“Trip
Info”
switch.
“OUTSIDE TEMP”
The display indicates the outside air tempera-
tures.
“Consumption”
The instantaneous fuel consumption is calcu-
lated and displayed based on distance and
fuel consumption with the engine running.
The displayed value is updated every 1 sec-
ond.
Note that an accurate figure may not be
shown in the following cases.
When the vehicle is stopped with the en-
gine running, the display will indicate the
extremely high fuel consumption.
When the vehicle is driving down a long
slope, applying the engine brake, the dis-
play will indicate the extremely low fuel
consumption.
The calculation is reset when the ignition
switch is turned off.
109 “After refueling”
The average fuel consumption is calculated
and displayed based on total driving distance
and total fuel consumption with the engine
running.
The displayed value is updated every 10 sec-
onds.
Every time you refuel the vehicle, the calcula-
tion is reset. When refueling, be sure to stop
your vehicle and turn the ignition switch off.
“Cruising range”
The distance the vehicle can travel with the
remaining fuel is calculated and displayed
based on the quantity of remaining fuel and
past fuel consumption.
The driving range display indicates the
approximate distance that you can drive until
the fuel gauge reaches “E”. It is different from
the actual distance traveled.
The displayed value is updated every time the
fuel equivalent for 1 mile or 1 km is consumed.
Every time you refuel the vehicle, the calcula-
tion is reset. When refueling, be sure to stop
your vehicle and turn the ignition switch off.
The actual driving range varies with driving
habits and road conditions. If fuel consump-
tion is good, the driving range will be longer.
If fuel consumption is poor, the driving range
will be shorter.If the low fuel level warning light comes on, re-
fuel even if the display indicates that the ve-
hicle can be driven further.
“Average speed”
The average speed is calculated and dis-
played based on the total driving distance and
the total driving time with the engine running.
The displayed value is updated every 10 sec-
onds.
“Distance”
The distance after refueling is calculated and
displayed based on the total distance after re-
fuel.
Every time you refuel the vehicle, the calcula-
tion is reset. When refueling, be sure to stop
your vehicle and turn the ignition switch off.
“Reset”
To reset the calculations of “Average speed”
and “Distance”.
