Limitations of the navigation
system
This navigation system calculates the
current vehicle position using satellite
signals, various vehicle signals, map
data, etc. However, the accurate position
may not be shown depending on the sat-
ellite condition, road configuration, ve-
hicle condition or other circumstances.
The Global Positioning System (GPS) de-
veloped and operated by the U.S. Depart-
ment of Defense provides an accurate cur-
rent vehicle position using 3 to 4 satellites.
The GPS system has a certain level of inac-
curacy. While the navigation system will
compensate for this most of the time, occa-
sional positioning errors of up to 300 feet
(100 m) can and should be expected. Gen-
erally, position errors will be corrected within
a few seconds.
When your vehicle is receiving signals from
the satellites, the “GPS” mark appears at the
top left of the screen.
The GPS signal may be physically ob-
structed, leading to inaccurate vehicle posi-
tion on the map display. Tunnels, tall build-
ings, trucks, or even the placement of
objects on the instrument panel may ob-
struct the GPS signals.
The installation of window tinting may also
obstruct the GPS signals. Most window tint-
ing contains some metallic content that will
interfere with the GPS signal reception. We
advice against the use of window tinting on
vehicles equipped with navigation systems.
The GPS satellites may not send signals
due to repairs or improvements being made
to them.Even when the navigation system is receiv-
ing clear GPS signals, the vehicle position
may not be shown accurately or inappropri-
ate route guidance may occur in some
cases.
