Display operation
Adjustment of the angle of the display can be
done by pushing the “TILT” button. Each
push of the “TILT” button will tilt the display to
positions
1, 2, 3 and then back to 0 in the
reverse order.
If the engine switch is set at OFF, the display
will automatically move back to position
0.
The display will automatically resume the pre-
vious position when the engine switch is set
at ACC or ON.
CAUTION
Injury may result from placing a hand or
any fingers on the display while it is
moving.
NOTICE
Do not place any foreign objects on the
display while it is moving. It could dam-
age your navigation system.
INFORMATION
Under extremely cold conditions, the
display may react slowly or operation
sound may become louder.
Initial screen
When the engine switch is set at ACC or ON,
the initial screen will be displayed and the
system will begin operating.
CAUTION
When the vehicle is stopped with the en-
gine running, always apply the parking
brake for safety.
After a few seconds, the “CAUTION” screen
will be displayed.
BASIC FUNCTIONS
21
After about 5 seconds, the “CAUTION”
screen automatically switches to the map
screen. When the “MAP/VOICE” button is
also pushed, the map screen is displayed.
While the “CAUTION” screen is displayed,
the “DEST” or “MENU” button cannot be op-
erated. And if the “Language”, “Calendar”
or “Maintenance” buttons on the “Informa-
tion” screen are touched, the screen will
change back to “CAUTION” screen and then
change to the map screen in about 5 seconds
later or if the “MAP/VOICE” button is pushed.
Maintenance information
This system informs about when to replace
certain parts or components and shows deal-
er information (if registered) on the screen.
When the vehicle reaches a previously set
driving distance or date specified for a sched-
uled maintenance check, the “Information”
screen will be displayed when the navigation
system is in operation.
To disable this screen, touch “Do Not
Display This Message Again.”. This
screen goes off if the screen is not oper-
ated for several seconds.
To prevent this information screen from being
displayed again, touch “Do Not Display This
Message Again.”.
To register “Maintenance information”, see
“Maintenance information” on page 110.
Memo information
This system notifies about a memo entry. At
the specified date, the memo information will
be displayed when the navigation system is in
operation. The memo information screen will
be displayed every time the system is turned
on.
The memo of the current date can be
viewed by touching “Memo”. (See “ —
Editing a memo” on page 116.)
To disable this screen, touch “Do Not
Display This Message Again.”. This
screen goes off if the screen is not oper-
ated for several seconds.
To prevent this information screen from being
displayed again, touch “Do Not Display This
Message Again.”.
To register a memo information, see “Calen-
dar with memo” on page 113.

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 107.
— 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).
