System FunctionsNKS004AB
Here is an example of functions. For details, refer to the owner's manual or navigation system owner's manual.
AUDIO
AudioPilot
® (for BOSE System)
AudioPilot® is the sound improving system that picks up any noises and the sound of music coming into the
vehicle by a microphone under the steering, and that the BOSE amp revises the frequency feature of music at
real time in response to the frequency feature of the noise while driving and listening to music.
If low frequency area noise from vehicle is loud, it adjusts low frequency element of music to be bigger
than vehicle noise.
If high frequency area noise from vehicle is loud, it adjusts all frequency element of music to be bigger
than vehicle noise.
Centerpoint® (for BOSE Surround 5.1ch System)
CD and 2.0ch DVD stereo sound played at audio unit and DVD player are subjected to signal processing in
BOSE amp. It can play the surround sound with presence.
VEHICLE INFORMATION SYSTEM
The status of audio, climate control system, fuel consumption, and navigation system (if equipped) are
displayed.
AV (NAVI) control unit receives the data signal from ECM, unified meter and A/C amp and low tire pres-
sure warning control unit via CAN communication. It calculates the values of fuel economy, tire pressure,
and trip computer from the received information and displays them.
NAVIGATION SYSTEM
Location Detection Principle
The navigation system periodically calculates the vehicle's current
position according to the following three signals:
Travel distance of the vehicle as determined by the vehicle
speed sensor
Turning angle of the vehicle as determined by the gyroscope
(angular velocity sensor)
Direction of vehicle travel as determined by the GPS antenna
(GPS information)
The current position of the vehicle is then identified by comparing the
calculated vehicle position with map data read from the map DVD-
ROM, which is stored in the DVD-ROM drive (map-matching), and
indicated on the screen as a vehicle mark. More accurate data is judged and used by comparing vehicle posi-
tion detection results found by the GPS with the result by map-matching.
The current vehicle position will be calculated by detecting the dis-
tance the vehicle moved from the previous calculation point and its
direction.
Travel distance
Travel distance calculations are based on the vehicle speed
sensor input signal. Therefore, the calculation may become
incorrect as the tires wear down. To prevent this, an automatic
distance correction function has been adopted.
Travel direction
Change in the travel direction of the vehicle is calculated by a
gyroscope (angular velocity sensor) and a GPS antenna (GPS
information). They have both advantages and disadvantages.

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.
