(b) Inappropriate route guidance
may occur in the following cases:
When turning at an intersection off the
designated route guidance.
If you set more than one destination but
skip any of them, auto reroute will display a
route returning to the destination on the pre-
vious route.
When turning at an intersection for which
there is no route guidance.
When passing through an intersection
for which there is no route guidance.
During auto reroute, the route guidance
may not be available for the next turn to the
right or left.
It may take a long time to operate auto re-
route during high speed driving. In auto re-
route, a detour route may be shown.
After auto reroute, the route may not be
changed.
An unnecessary U−turn may be shown
or announced.
A location may have multiple names and
the system will announce one or more.
Some routes may not be searched.
If the route to your destination includes
gravel, unpaved roads or alleys, the route
guidance may not be shown.
Your destination point might be shown on
the opposite side of the street.
When a portion of the route has regula-
tions prohibiting the entry of the vehicle that
vary by time or season or other reason.
The road and map data stored in your
navigation system may not be complete or
may not be the latest version.
After replacing the tire, implement the
operation described in the “ Tire
change calibration”. (For details, see
page xc.)
This navigation system uses the tire turning
data and is designed to work with factory−
specified tires for your vehicle. Installing
tires that are larger or smaller than the origi-
nally equipped diameter may cause inaccu-
rate display of the vehicle’s position. The tire
pressure also affects the diameter of the
tires so please make sure the tire pressure
of all four tires is correct.
Map database information
and updates
This system uses the maps of DENSO.

xxv There are two types of areas available for
route guidance. In one type of area, pri-
marily around metropolitan centers, de-
tailed route guidance is available for the
entire area. In the other type of area, all
roads are displayed on the map but route
guidance is limited. The navigation route
might lack precision because the data
(no right turns, one way traffic, etc.) is
not complete. It is still possible to reach
the destination by following the arrow di-
rection and distance as shown on the
bottom left of the screen. The arrow
points in the direction of the destination.
The distance shown is as measured in a
straight line from the current vehicle
position to the destination area.
In order to provide you with as accurate map
information as possible, we are always gath-
ering information such as on road repairs
and carrying out on−site investigations.
However, the names of roads, streets, facili-
ties, and their locations are often changed.
In some places, construction on roads may
be in progress. For that reason, information
on some areas in this system might be differ-
ent from the actual location.

The map database is normally updated once
a year. Contact your dealer for updating a
map database.
To confirm the database version and
disc coverage area
1. Push the
“MENU” button.
2. Touch the “Map DVD” switch.
Make sure the version of the database on
