Display of GPS information
GPS information can be displayed.“VIEWING GPS CURRENT LOCATION
INFORMATION” (page 7-9)
NOTE:
Route guidance provided by the navigation
system does not take carpool lane driving
into consideration, especially when car-
pool lanes are separated from other road
lanes.
INCORRECT DISPLAY OF VEHICLE
POSITION
The following cases may affect the display
accuracy of the vehicle’s position or traveling
direction. The accuracy will return to normal if
the driving conditions return to normal.
*When there is a similar road nearby.
*When the vehicle is traveling in an area with a grid
pattern road system.
*When the vehicle is passing through a large Y-
shaped intersection/junction.
*When the vehicle is traveling on a continuous,
slowly curving road.
General system information10-5
— If the destination, current vehicle positionor waypoint is within the “Avoid Area”.
— If a part of the route is included in the “Avoid Area”.
. The following may occur when the route is
displayed.
— If you calculate a route on a main road,
the starting point of the route may not
exactly match the current vehicle loca-
tion.
— The endpoint of the route may not exactly match the destination.
— If you calculate a route on a main road, the system may display a route from
another main road. This may be because
the position of the vehicle icon is not
accurate. In this case, park the vehicle in
a safe location and reset the vehicle
icon, or continue driving to see if the
position of the vehicle icon is automati-
cally adjusted before recalculating the
route.
— There are cases in which the system shows an indirect route to reach the
destination or waypoints, if you set them
from stored or facility information. In
order to correct this, you must be careful
about the traffic direction, especially
when lanes with different travel direc- tions are shown separately, such as
interchanges and service areas.
— This system makes no distinction be- tween limited traffic control and total
control (blockage) . It may show an
indirect route even if the road is usable.
— Even if the freeway preference is set to OFF, a route that uses the freeway may
be suggested.
— Even if the preference is set to OFF, a route that uses a ferry line may be
suggested.
— Ferry lines, excluding those that are only for pedestrians, bicycles and motor-
cycles, are stored in this system. Take
into consideration the travel time re-
quired and operational condition before
deciding whether to use them or not.INFO:
The system will only announce street names
when the system language is set to English.
Street names are not announced when the
system is set to Franc¸ ais (French) .
BASICS OF VOICE GUIDANCE
Voice guidance announces which direction to
turn when approaching an intersection in which
a turn is necessary.
NOTE:
. There may be some cases in which
voice guidance and actual road condi-
tions do not correspond. This may
occur because of discrepancies be-
tween the actual road and the informa-
tion on the map data, or it is due to the
vehicle’s speed.
. In case voice guidance does not corre-
spond to the actual road conditions,
follow the information obtained from
traffic signs or notices on the road.
ROUTE GUIDANCE
General system information10-9
.Route guidance provided by the navi-
gation system does not take carpool
lane driving into consideration, espe-
cially when carpool lanes are separated
from other road lanes.
DIRECTIONS PROVIDED AND THE
DISTANCES TO GUIDE POINTS
Directions will differ, depending on the road
type.
INFO:
Distances may vary, depending on the vehicle
speed.
Notification of an intersection on an
ordinary road
1. “In about one quarter mile (400 meters) , right (left) turn.”
2. “Right (left) turn ahead.”
Notification of consecutive intersections
on an ordinary road
When the road has three or more consecutive
intersections ahead, voice guidance will an-
nounce the following.
1. “In about one quarter mile (400 meters) , right (left) turn, then left (right) turn.”
2. “Left (right) turn ahead, then right (left) turn.”
Notification of a freeway entrance
1. “In about one quarter mile (400 meters) freeway entrance on your right onto (road
number and direction) .”
2. “Freeway entrance on your right onto (road number and direction) .”
10-10General system information
.Because it is not possible to consider data
concerning roads that are seasonally avail-
able or unavailable, a route may be displayed
that does not match the actual traffic
restrictions. Be sure to follow the actual
traffic restrictions while driving.
. Canada and Alaska contain many roads with
incomplete map data. As a result, when
searching for a route, the route may include
roads with incomplete data. In regions
where road data is not complete, voice
guidance may stop for long periods of time.
Be sure to follow the actual traffic restric-
tions while driving. .
The XM NavTraffic®information service is
not provided for some cities. In addition, the
cities for which the traffic information service
is provided may be changed.
. In some cases, infrastructure problems may
prevent the complete display of the traffic
information. This is not a malfunction.
. Due to infrastructure problems, or due to the
time when the traffic information service
broadcast is received, the displayed infor-
mation may differ from the actual traffic
conditions.
. Depending on the traffic information, a
detour route may be slower than the original
route.

*C2009 NAVTEQ. All Rights Reserved.The display is a liquid crystal display and should
be handled with care.WARNING
Never disassemble the display. Some
parts utilize extremely high voltage.
Touching them may result in serious
personal injury.
CHARACTERISTICS OF A LIQUID
CRYSTAL DISPLAY
.
If the temperature inside the vehicle is
especially low, the display will stay relatively
dim or the movement of the images may be
slow. These conditions are normal. The
display will function normally when 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 liquid crystal dis-
plays, and it is not a malfunction.
. You may also notice a remnant of the
previous display image on the screen. This
screen burn is inherent in displays, and it is
not a malfunction.
INFO:
The screen may become distorted by strong
magnetic fields.
MAINTENANCE OF THE DISPLAY
CAUTION
. To clean the display, never use a
rough cloth, alcohol, benzine, thin-
ner and any kind of solvent or
paper towel with a chemical clean-
ing agent. They will scratch or
deteriorate the panel.
. Do not splash any liquid such as
water or car fragrance on the dis-
play. Contact with liquid will cause
the system to malfunction.
If you need to clean the display screen, use a
dry, soft cloth. If additional cleaning is necessary,
use a small amount of neutral detergent with a
soft cloth. Never spray the screen with water or
detergent. Dampen the cloth first, then wipe the
screen.
