Introduction
Thank you for your purchase of the Navigation System. Please read this \
manual carefully to ensure proper use. Keep this manual
in your vehicle at all times.
The Navigation System is one of the most technologically advanced vehicle \
accessories ever developed. The system receives sat ellite sig-
nals from the Global Positioning System (GPS) operated by the U.S. Departme\
nt of Defense. Using these signals and other vehicle sensors,
the system indicates your present position and assists in locating a des\
ired destination.
The navigation system is designed to select efficient routes from your present starting location to your destination. \
The syst em is designed
to direct you to a destination that is unfamiliar to you in an efficient manner. The system uses the maps of DENSO. The calcu lated routes
may not be the shortest nor the least traffic congested. Your own personal local knowledge or “short cut” may at times be faster than the calcu-
lated routes.
The navigation system’s database includes about 75 Point of Interest categories to allow you to \
easily select destinations such as restaurants
and banks. If a destination is not in the database, you can enter the stre\
et address or a major intersection close to it and the system will guide
you there. The system will provide both a visual map and audio instruct\
ions. The audio instructions will announce the distanc e remaining
and the direction to turn in approaching a fork or intersection. These voi\
ce instructions will help you keep your eyes on the road and are timed
to provide enough time to allow you to maneuver, change lanes or slow down.
Please be aware that all current vehicle navigation systems have certain limitatio\
ns that may affect their ability to perform properly.
The accuracy of the vehicle’s position depends on the satellite condition, road configuration, vehicle condition or other \
circumstan-
ces. For more information on the limitations of the system, refer to pages \
10 through 12.
