NAVIGATION SYSTEM
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 DVD-ROM,
which is stored in the DVD-ROM drive (map-matching), and indi-
cated on the screen as a current-loc ation mark. More accurate data
is judged and used by comparing vehicle position detecti on 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 sen-
sor input signal. Therefore, the calculation may become incorrect
as the tires wear down. To prevent this, an automatic distance cor-
rection function has been adopted.
 Travel direction Change in the travel direction of the vehicle is calculated by a gyro-
scope (angular velocity sensor) and a GPS antenna (GPS informa-
tion). They have both advantages and disadvantages.
More accurate traveling direction is selected because pr iorities are set for the signals from these two devices
according to the situation.
Map-Matching
Map-matching compares a current location detected by the method
in the “Location Detection Principle” with a road map data from DVD-
ROM stored in DVD-ROM drive.
NOTE:
The road map data is based on data stored in the DVD-ROM.
The vehicle position may not be corrected under the following circumstances and after driving for a certain
time when GPS information is difficult to receive. In th is case, the current-location mark on the display must be
corrected manually.

SEL684V
Type Advantage Disadvantage
Gyroscope (angular velocity sen-
sor) Can detect the vehicle's turning angle quite
accurately. Direction errors
may accumulate when vehicle is
driven for long distances without stopping.
GPS antenna (GPS information) Can detect the vehicle's travel direction
(North/South/East/West). Correct direction cannot be detected when vehicle
speed is low.

The steering angle output value detected by the gyroscope can be
adjusted.
Speed Calibration
Usually the automatic distance correction function adjusts the mal-
function in distance caused by the tires wearing down or the tire
pressure change. If prompt adjus tment is necessary when the tire
chains are installed, et c., perform this procedure.
Error History
Diagnosis results of self-diagnosis depend on if any error occurred during the time after selecting “Self Diag-
nosis” until self-diagnosis results is displayed.
Meanwhile, when an error occurs before selecting “Sel f Diagnosis”, and if an error does not occur until self-
diagnosis results is displayed, a diagnosis result is judged as normal.
Consequently, a diagnosis needs to be performed with “Error His tory” for the past error that is not available
with self-diagnosis.
“Error History” displays the time and place of the most re cent occurrence of that error. However, take note of
the following points.
 Correct time of the error occurrence may not be displayed when the GPS antenna substrate within the NAVI
control unit has malfunctioned.
 Place of the error occurrence is represented by the pos ition of the vehicle mark at the time when the error
occurred. If the vehicle mark has deviated from the co rrect position, then the place of the error occurrence
may not be located correctly.
 When the ignition switch is turned ON if the error is det ected, the counter increases 1. Even if it is normal
when the ignition switch is turned ON t he next time, the counter does not decrease.
 The upper limit of the counter is 50. 51 or more is displayed as 50. It can be reset to 0 by “Delete log” switch.

this occurs, service the vehicle's battery as necessary and re-enter the information in the Address Book.
VEHICLE MARKS
No map is displayed on the
screen. The DVD-ROM is not inserted, or it is inserted
upside down.
Insert the DVD-ROM correctly.
A screen other than map screen is displayed. Press the “MAP” button.
The pickup lens of the DVD unit is dirty. The pickup lens can become dirty depending
on the usage of the vehicle. Clean the pickup
lens.
The screen is too dim.
The movement is slow. The temperature in the interior of the vehicle is
low. Wait until the interior of the vehicle has warmed
up.
Some pixels in the display are
darker or brighter than others. This condition is an inherent characteristic of liq-
uid crystal displays.
This is not a malfunction.
Some menu items cannot be se-
lected. Some menu items become unavailable while
the vehicle is driven. Park the vehicle in a safe location, then operate
the navigation system.
Symptom Possible cause Possible solution
Symptom Possible cause Possible solution
Names of roads and locations dif-
fer between plan view and BIRD-
VIEW
™ . This is because the quantity of the displayed in-
formation is reduced so that the screen does not
become difficult to read. There is also a chance
that names of the roads or locations may be dis-
played several times, and the names appearing
on the screen may be different because of a pro-
cessing procedure.
This is not a malfunction.
The vehicle mark is not displayed
in the correct position. The vehicle was transported after the ignition
switch was turned off, for example, by a ferry or
car transporter.
Drive the vehicle for a while on a road where
GPS signals can be received.
The position and direction of the vehicle mark
may be incorrect depending on the driving envi-
ronments and the levels of positioning accuracy
of the navigation system. This is not a malfunction. Drive the vehicle for a
while to automatically correct the position and
direction of the vehicle mark.
When the vehicle is travelling on a
new road, the vehicle mark is lo-
cated on another road nearby. The system automatically places the vehicle
mark on the nearest available road, because the
new road is not stored in the map data.
Updated road information will be included in the
next version of the DVD-ROM.
The screen does not switch to the
night screen even after turning on
the headlights. The daytime screen was set the last time the
headlights were turned on.
Set the screen to the night screen mode using
button when turning on the headlights.
The map does not scroll even
when the vehicle is moving. The current location map screen is not dis-
played.
Press the “MAP” button.
The vehicle mark is not displayed. The current location map screen is not dis-
played. Press the “MAP” button.
The GPS indicator on the screen
remains gray. GPS signals cannot be received depending on
the vehicle location, such as in a parking ga-
rage, on a road that has numerous tall buildings,
etc.
Drive on an open, straight road for a while.
A sufficient amount of GPS satellites is not avail-
able. Please wait for the satellites to move to loca-
tions available for the navigation system.
The location of the vehicle mark is
misaligned from the actual posi-
tion. When using tire chains or replacing the tires,
speed calculations based on the speed sensor
may be incorrect.
Drive the vehicle for a while [at approximately
30 km/h (19 MPH) for about 30 minutes] to au-
tomatically correct the vehicle's mark position.
If this does not correct the vehicle mark posi-
tion, inspect the AV system.
The map data has a mistake or is incomplete
(the vehicle mark position is always misaligned
in the same area). Updated road information will be included in the
next version of the DVD-ROM.
