NOTE:
Locations stored in the Address Book and other memory functions may be lost if the vehicle's battery is disconnected or becomes dis-
charged. If this occurs, service the vehicle's battery as necessary and re-enter the information in the Address Book.
VEHICLE ICON
Symptom Possible cause Possible solution
No image is displayed.The brightness is at the lowest setting. Adjust the brightness of the display.
The display is turns off.
Push and hold to turn on the display.
No voice guidance is available.
The volume is too high or too low.The volume is not set correctly, or it is turned off. Adjust the volume of voice guidance.
Volume guidance is not provided for narrow streets
(roads displayed in gray).This is not a malfunction.
No map is displayed on the screen.The map DVD-ROM is not inserted, or it is inserted
upside down.Insert the map DVD-ROM correctly.
A screen other than map screen is displayed. Push “MAP”.
The screen is too dim.
The movement is slow.The temperature in the interior of the vehicle is low.Wait until the interior of the vehicle has
warmed up.
Some pixels in the display are
darker or brighter than others.This condition is an inherent characteristic of liquid
crystal displays.This is not a malfunction.
Some menu items cannot be
selected.Some menu items become unavailable while the
vehicle is driven.Park the vehicle in a safe location, and
then operate the navigation system.
Symptom Possible cause Possible solution
Names of roads and locations dif-
fer between Plan view and Bird-
view™.This is because the quantity of the displayed infor-
mation is reduced so that the screen does not
become too crowded. There is also a chance that
names of the roads or locations may be displayed
multiple times, and the names appearing on the
screen may be different because of a processing
procedure.This is not a malfunction.
The vehicle icon is not displayed in
the correct position.The vehicle was transported after the ignition switch
was turned off, for example, by a ferry or car trans-
porter.Drive the vehicle for a while on a road
where GPS can be received.
The position and direction of the vehicle may be
incorrect depending on the driving environments and
the levels of positioning accuracy of the navigation
system.This is not a malfunction. Drive the vehi-
cle for a while to automatically correct the
position and direction of the vehicle icon.
When the vehicle is travelling on a
new road, the vehicle icon is
located on another road nearby.Because the new road is not stored in the map data,
the system automatically places the vehicle ion on
the nearest road available. Updated road information will be included
in the next version of the map DVD-ROM.
The screen does not switch to the
night screen even after turning on
the headlights. The daytime screen was set the last time the head-
lights were turned on.Set the screen to the night screen mode
using when turning on the headlights.
The map does not scroll even
when the vehicle is moving.The current location map screen is not displayed. Push “MAP”.
The vehicle icon is not displayed. The current location map screen is not displayed. Push “MAP”.
The GPS indicator on the screen
remains gray.GPS signals cannot be received depending on the
vehicle location, such as in a parking garage, on a
road that has numerous tall buildings, etc.Drive on an open, straight road for a
while.
GPS signals cannot be received because objects
are placed on the rear parcel shelf.Remove the objects from the rear parcel
shelf.
A sufficient amount of GPS satellites are not avail-
able.Wait for the satellites to move locations
available for navigation system.

SYSTEM DESCRIPTION
Revision: 2006 January2006 M35/M45
GPS (Global Positioning System)
GPS (Global Positioning System) was developed for and is con-
trolled by the US Department of Defense. The system utilizes GPS
satellites (NAVSTAR), sending out radio waves while flying on an
orbit around the earth at an altitude of approximately 21,000 km
(13,100miles).
The GPS receiver calculates the vehicle's position in three dimen-
sions (latitude/longitude/altitude) according to the time lag of the
radio waves received from four or more GPS satellites (three-dimen-
sional positioning). If radio waves were received only from three
GPS satellites, the GPS receiver calculates the vehicle's position in
two dimensions (latitude/longitude), utilizing the altitude data calcu-
lated previously with radio waves from four or more GPS satellites
(two-dimensional positioning).
Position correction by GPS is not available while the vehicle is stopped.
Accuracy of GPS will deteriorate under the following conditions:
In two-dimensional positioning, GPS accuracy will deteriorate when altitude of the vehicle position
changes.
The accuracy can be even lower depending on the arrangement of the GPS satellites utilized for the posi-
tioning.
Position detection is not possible when vehicle is in an area where radio waves from the GPS satellite do
not reach, such as in a tunnel, parking lot in a building, and under an elevated highway. Radio waves from
the GPS satellites may not be received when some object is located over the GPS antenna.
NOTE:
Even a high-precision three dimensional positioning, the detection result has an error about 10 m (30ft).
Because the signals of GPS satellite is controlled by the Tracking and Control Center in the United States,
the accuracy may be degraded lower intentionally or the radio waves may stop.
MOBILE ENTERTAINMENT SYSTEM
The wireless headphone has been adopted to the rear seat. It is possible to listen to a separate sound in
front seat and rear seat and to see a separate image in front display and rear display.
When headphone mode is turned ON at radio/CD changer mode, AUX or DVD mode is turned ON only for
rear seat. The image that is different from front seat is displayed and a separate sound is output from
speaker and headphone.
HANDS-FREE PHONE
AV (NAVI) control unit has a Bluetooth module. It can perform wireless hands-free telephone calls using
the portable phone in a pocket.
5 or more portable phones can be registered into the AV (NAVI) control unit.
REAR VIEW MONITOR
The small CCD camera is equipped into the rear end of the vehicle. The rear view monitor that displays
the area behind the vehicle while backing up is equipped.
Guiding lines indicating side and rear clearances are provided in the rear view monitor image, which
allows the driver to more easily judge distances between the vehicle and objects in the display. The possi-
ble route lines that indicate the possible route according to the steering angle are provided to help backing
up when parking.
Image quality of the rear view image and of the navigation screen can be adjusted separately.

SATELLITE TUNER
The satellite tuner is connected with the audio unit via communi-
cation line.
It sends the received sound signal from the satellite radio
antenna to the audio unit.
AV CONTROL UNIT (WITHOUT NAVI)
It controls each unit of the system by the operation signal from
the multifunction switch and sends the image signal of operating
condition or vehicle information, etc. to the display unit.
It receives the TEL input voice or the input voice at voice control
from the microphone. It receives the received TEL voice, and
then sends it to the audio unit.
It sends the voice guidance signal to BOSE amp (BOSE sys-
tem).
NAVI CONTROL UNIT (WITH NAVI)
It controls each unit of the system by the operation signal from
the multifunction switch and sends the image signal of operating
condition or vehicle information, etc. to the display unit.
It receives the TEL input voice or the input voice at voice control
from the microphone. It receives the received TEL voice, and
then sends it to the audio unit.
The gyro (angle speed sensor) and the DVD-ROM drive are
built-in units that control the navigation functions.
Signals are received from the gyro, the vehicle speed sensor,
and the GPS antenna. Vehicle location is determined by com-
bining this data with the data contained in the DVD-ROM map.
Location information is shown on liquid crystal display panel.
FRONT DISPLAY UNIT
It receives the RGB signal and the image signal of video distrib-
utor and camera control unit from AV (NAVI) control unit.
The changing of image is controlled by the communication with
AV (NAVI) control unit.
