1. BASIC INFORMATION BEFORE OPERATION
Introduction
This manual explains the operation of the Navigation System. Please read this
manual carefully to ensure proper use. Keep this manual in your vehicle at all
times.
The screen shots in this document and the actual screens of the navigation sys-
tem differ depending on whether the functions and/or a contract existed and the
map data available at the time of producing this document.
The Navigation System is one of the most technologically advanced vehicle ac-
cessories ever developed. The system receives satellite signals from the Global
Positioning System (GPS) operated by the U.S. Department of Defense. Using
these signals and other vehicle sensors, the system indicates your present po-
sition and assists in locating a desired destination.
The navigation system is designed to select efficient routes from your present
starting location to your destination. The system is also designed to direct you
to a destination that is unfamiliar to you in an efficient manner. The system uses
DENSO maps. The calculated routes may not be the shortest nor the least traf-
fic congested. Your own personal local knowledge or “short cut” may at times
be faster than the calculated routes.
The navigation system’s database includes Point of Interest categories to allow
you to easily select destinations such as restaurants and hotels. If a destination
is not in the database, you can enter the street address or a major intersection
close to it and the system will guide you there.
The system will provide both a visual map and audio instructions. The audio in-
structions will announce the distance remaining and the direction to turn in when
approaching an intersection. These voice instructions will help you keep your
eyes on the road and are timed to provide enough time to allow you to maneu-
ver, change lanes or slow down.
Please be aware that all current vehicle navigation systems have certain limita-
tions that may affect their ability to perform properly. The accuracy of the vehi-
cle’s position depends on satellite conditions, road configuration, vehicle
condition or other circumstances. For more information on the limitations of the
system, refer to pages 116 through 117.

5. MAP SCREEN OPERATION
The current position mark ( ) appears 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 ( ).
The screen can be returned to this map
screen that shows the current position at
any time, from any screen by pressing the
“MAP/VOICE” button.
Use the scroll feature to move the desired
point to the center of the screen for look-
ing at a point on the map that is different
from the current position.
If a finger touches and holds the map
screen, it 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 ( ). Distance
from the current position to will also be
shown ( ).
CURRENT POSITION
DISPLAY
When starting the navigation system,
the current position is displayed first.
This screen displays the current posi-
tion and a map of the surrounding ar-
ea.
To correct the current position manually,
see page 108.
INFORMATION
●While driving, the current 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 auto-
matically corrected after the vehicle
receives signals from the GPS.
● After 12-volt 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 cor-
rect current position is displayed.
SCREEN SCROLL
OPERATION
When any point on the map is touched,
that point moves to the center of the
screen and is shown by the cursor
mark ( ).
After the screen is scrolled, the map
remains centered at the selected loca-
tion until another function is activated.
The current position mark will continue
to move along your actual route and
may move off the screen. When the
“MAP/VOICE” button is pressed, the
current position mark returns to the cen-
ter of the screen and the map moves as
the vehicle proceeds along the desig-
nated route.
When the scroll feature is used, the cur-
rent position mark may disappear from
the screen. Press the “MAP/VOICE”
button to display the current position on
the map screen.

*: The system indicates a U-turn if the dis-
tance between two one-way roads (of op-
posite directions) is less than 50 feet (15
m) in residential areas or 164 feet (50 m) in
non-residential areas. The system announces the approach to
the final destination.
No.Voice guidance
“In half of a mile, make a legal U-
turn.”
“Make a legal U-turn ahead.”
(Beep sound only)
No.Voice guidance

5. GPS (GLOBAL POSITIONING SYSTEM)
1. LIMITATIONS OF THE NAVIGATION SYSTEM
The Global Positioning System (GPS) de-
veloped and operated by the U.S. Depart-
ment of Defense provides an accurate
current position, normally using 4 or more
satellites, and in some case 3 satellites.
The GPS system has a certain level of in-
accuracy. While the navigation system will
compensate for this most of the time, oc-
casional 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 the vehicle is receiving signals from
satellites, the “GPS” mark appears at the
top left of the screen.
The GPS signal may be physically ob-
structed, leading to inaccurate vehicle po-
sition on the map screen. 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 clear GPS signals, the vehicle po-
sition may not be shown accurately or
inappropriate route guidance may occur in
some cases.
Accurate current position may not be
shown in the following cases:
• When driving on a small angled Y-
shaped road.
• When driving on a winding road.
• When driving on a slippery road such as in sand, gravel, snow, etc.
• When driving on a long straight road.
• When motorway and surface streets run in parallel.
• After moving by ferry or vehicle carrier.
• When a long route is searched during high speed driving.
• When driving without setting the current
position calibration correctly.
• After repeating a change of direction by going forward and backward, or turning
on a turntable in a parking lot.
• When leaving a covered parking lot or parking garage.
• When a roof carrier is installed.
• When driving with tire chains installed.
• When the tires are worn.
• After replacing a tire or tires.
• When using tires that are smaller or larger than the factory specifications.
• When the tire pressure in any of the 4 tires is not correct.
This navigation system calculates the
current position using satellite signals,
various vehicle signals, map data, etc.
However, an accurate position may not
be shown depending on satellite condi-
tions, road configuration, vehicle con-
dition or other circumstances.NOTICE
● The installation of window tinting may
obstruct the GPS signals. Most window
tinting contains some metallic content
that will interfere with GPS signal recep-
tion of the antenna in the instrument
panel. We advise against the use of win-
dow tinting on vehicles equipped with
navigation systems.
If the vehicle cannot receive GPS sig-
nals, the current position can be
adjusted manually. For information on
setting the current position calibration,
see page 108.
