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.
