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 vehicl\
e accessories ever developed. The system receives sate llite
signals from the Global Positioning System (GPS) operated by the U.S. \
Department of Defense. Using these signals and other veh icle
sensors, the system indicates your present position and assists in locating a de\
sired destination.
The navigation system is designed to select efficient routes from your present starting location to your destination. The system is also designed
to direct you to a destination that is unfamiliar to you in an efficient manner. The system uses DENSO maps. The calculated routes may not
be the shortest nor the least traffic congested. Your own personal local knowledge or “short cut” may at times be fa\
ster than the calculated
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 \
198 through 200.

Map screen operation —
— Current position display
When starting the navigation system, the cur-
rent position is displayed first.
This screen displays the current vehicle posi-
tion and a map of the surrounding local area.
The current vehicle position mark (1) ap-
pears in the center or bottom center of the
map screen.
A street name will appear on the bottom of the
screen, depending on the scale of the map
(
2).
You can return to this map screen that shows
your current position at any time from any
screen by pushing the “MAP/VOICE” button.
While driving, the current vehicle position
mark is fixed on the screen and the map
moves. The current position is automatically set as
the vehicle receives signals from the GPS
(Global Positioning System). If the current
position is not correct, it is automatically cor-
rected after
the vehicle receives signals from
the GPS.
INFORMATION
After battery disconnection, or on a
new vehicle, the current position may
not be correct. As soon as the system
receives signals from the GPS, the
correct current position is displayed.
To correct the current position manu-
ally, see “
Current position/tire
change calibration” on page 87.
— Screen scroll operation
(one touch scroll)
When any point on the map is touched, that
point moves to the center of the screen and is
shown by the cursor mark (
1).
Use the scroll feature to move the desired
point to the center of the screen for looking at
a point on the map that is different from the
current position of the vehicle.
If the finger is continuously held on the
screen, the map will continue scrolling in that
direction until the finger is removed.
A street name, city name, etc. of the touched
point will be shown, depending on the scale
of the map (
2). Distance from the current
position to will also be shown (3).

(f) Your DVD player
(with rear seat entertainment system)
The sound of the rear seat entertainment sys-
tem can be enjoyed by pushing the
“DISC·AUX” button.
(g) AUX adapter
The sound of portable audio players con-
nected to the AUX adapter can be enjoyed.
Push the “DISC·AUX” button to switch to AUX
mode. For details, refer to the “Owner’s
Manual”.
— Radio operation
(a) Listening to the radio
Push these buttons to choose either an
AM or FM station.
“AM”, “FM1” or “FM2” appears on the screen.
Turn the knob clockwise to step up the sta-
tion band or counterclockwise to step
down.
Your radio automatically changes to stereo
reception when a stereo broadcast is re-
ceived. “ST” appears on the screen. If the
signal becomes weak, the radio reduces the
amount of channel separation to prevent the
weak signal from creating noise. If the signal
becomes extremely weak, the radio switches
from stereo to mono reception. In this case,
“ST” disappears from the screen.
