Operating the system will distract the driver from looking ahead of the vehicle and can
cause accidents. Always stop the vehicle in a safe location and use the parking brake
before operating the system.
n
Always obey local traffic regulations. Your guided route may include roads that are not open to vehicles or are closed due to
traffic regulations. Comply with the local traffic regulations and take another route.
n
Do not use the unit when it is out of order.If the unit is out of order (no image, no sound) or in an abnormal state (has foreign matter
in it, is exposed to water, is smoking, or smells), turn it off immediately and consult an
Authorized dealer, we recommend an Authorized Mazda Dealer. Using the unit in an out-
of-order condition may lead to accidents, fires, or electric shocks.
n
Use the proper power supply. This product is designed for operation with a negative grounded 12 V DC battery system.
n
Do not disassemble. Do not disassemble the product or attempt to repair it yourself. If the product needs to be
repaired, take it to an Authorized dealer, we recommend an Authorized Mazda Dealer.

Precautions/System Performance
Voice guidance has the following functions:
nIntersection guidance.
lThe system voice announces the distance to an upcoming turn and the turning direction.
This guidance function is automatic. Therefore, you do not have to set it, and it cannot be
disabled.
lThe system vocally announces the distance to an upcoming highway branching point or
junction.
Pressing the Navi switch in the steering switches repeats the guidance if the voice
guidance has been missed.
Voice Guidance
lThe navigation system is just a support system for the driver. The driver should
always pay attention to the traffic situation to safely make decisions. You may
be unable at times to arrive at your destination due to out-of-date information
on a map disc. You should be especially careful when selecting an urgent
destination such as a hospital or a police station.
lYour route may sometimes include roads that are not open to vehicles or are
closed due to traffic regulations. Please comply with the local traffic
regulations.
lDo not change the settings and destination locations while driving. Minimize
the time spent viewing the monitor screen and listening to the voice guidance
while driving. Operating the system will distract the driver from looking ahead
of the vehicle and may cause an accident. Always stop the vehicle in a safe
location and use the parking brake before operating the system.
When two intersections are close together, the
voice guidance may be late.When two roundabouts are close together, the
voice guidance for the second one may be late.

GPS is a position detecting system utilizing the signals
from GPS satellites deployed by the U.S. Department of
Defense. The Mobile Navigation System uses input from
three or more satellites and calculates the vehicle position
based on the principle of triangulation.
The positioning accuracy of the system corresponds to the
error display of the GPS which is from about 30 to 200 meters.
lIf you are using the system for the first time, or if you have not used it for some time, it takes
about 5 minutes (or about 2 minutes in open areas) to calculate your vehicle’s position.
nGPS signal reception is poor in the following places.
lThe GPS satellites are controlled by the U.S. Defense Department, which may intentionally
lower positioning accuracy. In such cases, there may be vehicle position deviations.
lThere may be vehicle position deviations for some time until GPS signals are received after
switching on the ignition.
This function compares your vehicle’s tracking data with the road data on the map
disc, applies dead reckoning to determine the road you are driving on, and displays
your vehicle on that road on the map.
lIntelligent map matching addresses the following problems to achieve high accuracy in
vehicle positioning.
Position Correction for Elevated Roads.Position accuracy is improved by detecting if the vehicle is
running on or under an elevated road.
Position Correction for Parking Garages.Position accuracy is improved by detecting if the vehicle is
driving in an elevated or underground parking garage.
High-precision Gyrosensor.A gyro detects turns with an accuracy of 0.05° per second.
Combined with a speed sensor, it enables the system to
display the current vehicle position even where GPS signals
may be blocked.
lUsing a spare tire in place of the regular one may cause vehicle position deviations.
lAny difference between the direction which your vehicle actually travels and that shown on
the map is automatically eliminated by azimuth correction.
