INFORMATION
When you use the map scroll feature,
the current vehicle position mark may
disappear from the screen. Move the
map again with map scroll or push the
“MAP/VOICE” button to return to
the current vehicle position map loca-
tion display.
The current position is automatically
set as your vehicle receives signals
from the GPS (Global Positioning Sys-
tem). If your current position is not cor-
rect, it is automatically corrected after
your 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.
If you must correct the current position
manually, follow the steps on page 95.
The current street name will be displayed
in the bottom of the screen when the set-
ting of the current street name is on.
In some areas, the roads have not been
completely digitalized in our database yet.
For this reason, the route guidance may
guide the road that is not allowed to pass. You can use voice guidance while driv-
ing to the destination.
You can adjust the volume of the voice or
turn off voice guidance.
1. Push the “MENU” button on the
navigation controller.
2. Select the “Volume” switch.
Voice guidance

BASIC FUNCTIONS
49
The system announces your approach to
the final destination.
1“Your destination is ahead.”
2“You have arrived at your des-tination. The route guidance is
now finished.”
INFORMATION
 Voice guidance may be made early
or delayed.
 If the system cannot determine the
current position correctly, you
may not hear voice guidance or
may not see the magnified inter-
section on the screen.
 If you did not hear voice guidance
command, push the
“MAP/
VOICE” button to hear it again.
If you register your home address be-
forehand, you can easily set the route
back to your home.
1. Push the “MENU” button on the
navigation controller.
2. Select the “Marked points”switch.
Registration of your home

BASIC FUNCTIONS

If you wish to look at a different point on the
map other than your current vehicle posi-
tion, you can bring the desired point to the
center of the screen by using the scroll fea-
ture.
Move the cursor mark
to the point you
desire by operating the select and scroll le-
ver of the navigation controller. Push the
“ENTER” button on the navigation con-
troller, and select the
“Enter ” switch.
If you continue to hold the lever by your fin-
ger on the navigation controller, the map
will continue scrolling in that direction until
you lift your finger.
After scrolling the screen, the map remains
centered at the selected location until you
push the
“MAP/VOICE” button. The
current vehicle position mark will continue
to move along your actual route and may
move off the screen. When you push the
“MAP/VOICE” button, the current ve-
hicle position mark returns to the center of
the screen and the map moves as you pro-
ceed on your route.
INFORMATION
If you enter a destination using the
screen scrolling function, the road
nearest to the point you selected is
set as the destination. At this time, if
the nearest road is over 4 miles from
destination point, the system may not
be able to calculate a guidance route.
You can change the orientation of the map
from North −up to Heading −up.
Select the
or switch.

BASIC FUNCTIONS

This navigation system calculates the
current vehicle position using satellite
signals, various vehicle signals, map
data, etc. However, an accurate posi-
tion may not be shown depending on
the satellite condition, road configura-
tion, vehicle condition or other circum-
stances.
The Global Positioning System (GPS) de-
veloped and operated by the U.S. Depart-
ment of Defense provides an accurate cur-
rent vehicle position, normally using 4 or
more satellites, and in some cases 3 satel-
lites. The GPS system has a certain level
of inaccuracy built in for security reasons.
While the navigation system will compen-
sate for this most of the time, occasional
positioning errors of up to 300 feet (100 m)
can and should be expected. Generally,
position errors will be corrected within a
few seconds.
When your vehicle is not receiving signals
from the satellites, the “GPS” mark does
not appear at the screen.
The GPS signal may be physically ob-
structed, leading to inaccurate vehicle
position on the map display. Tunnels, tall
buildings, trucks, or even the placement of
objects on the instrument panel may ob-
struct the GPS signals.
The GPS satellites may not send signals
due to repairs or improvements being
made to them.
Even when the navigation system is re-
ceiving good GPS signals, the vehicle
position may not be shown accurately or
inappropriate route guidance may occur in
some cases.
NOTICE
The installation of window tinting
may obstruct the GPS signals. Most
window tinting contains some metal-
lic content that will interfere with GPS
signal reception of the antenna in the
instrument panel. We advise against
the use of window tinting on vehicles
equipped with navigation systems.

INFORMATION
If your vehicle cannot receive GPS
signals, you can correct the current
position manually. For the informa-
tion on setting the current position
calibration, see page 95.
(b) Inappropriate route guidance may
occur in the following cases:
When turning at a wrong intersection
off the designated route guidance.
If you are heading for a destination
without passing through a set preferred
road, automatic rerouting may display
a route returning to the set preferred
road.
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 automatic rerouting, 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-
matic rerouting during high speed dri-
ving. In automatic rerouting, a detour
route may be shown.
During automatic rerouting, the route
may not be changed.
The route in a 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
reasons.
The road and map data stored in your
navigation system may not be com-
plete or may not be the latest release.

After replacing the tire, implement the
operation described in the “Current
position calibration”. (For details, see
page 95.)
This navigation system uses tire turning
data and is designed to work with factory −
specified tires for your Toyota. Installing
tires that are larger or smaller than the orig-
inally equipped diameter may cause inac-
curate 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 is made based on the
maps, 2008 edition of DENSO, whose
information source comes from
NAVTEQ maps, Tele Atlas maps and
infoUSA POIs.
