Database Limitations
You will find that some points of
interest (POI) may be missing when you
search the database. This can be caused
if at the time the database was gathered,
the name was misspelled, the place was
improperly categorized, or the POI
change is not yet in the database. This
means you may not find places listed
that you know exist. This is also true for
police agencies and hospitals. In
outlying areas, facilities listed may not
be the closest. Alwa ys check with local
information sources if you need law
enforcement or hospital services.
Every effort has been made to verify
that the system’s database was accurate
at the time it was created. However,
businesses do close or relocate, and new
businesses start in the old locations.
For this reason, yo u may occasionally
find inaccurate information when you
select and drive to a point of interest (for
example, a restaurant is now a jewelry
store). The number of these inaccuracies
increases the longer you go without an
update. The digitized map database reflects
conditions as they existed at various
points in time before production.
Accordingly, your database may contain
inaccurate or incomplete data or
information due to th
e passage of time,
road construction, changing conditions,
or other causes.
Due to ongoing software and database
improvements, navigation software and
mapping versions may change in the
middle of a production year. The
version shipped with your vehicle was
the most recent available at the time of
production and is considered standard
equipment for that vehicle. There is no
free program to retrofit early production
vehicles with the latest software and
mapping versions. For update ordering
information, see page 133.In addition, this database does not
include, analyze, process, consider, or
reflect any of the following categories
of information:
Neighborhood quality or safety
Population density
Availability or proximity of law
enforcement
Emergency, rescue, medical, or other assistance
Construction work, zones, or hazards
Road and lane closures
Legal restrictions (such as vehicular type, weight, load, height, and speed
restrictions)
Road slope or grade
Bridge height, width, weight, or other limitsIntro
