NAVIGATION SYSTEM

5. GPS (GLOBAL PO SITIONING 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 ft.
(100 m) can and should be expected. Gen-
erally, 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.
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.
