• (Vehicle):Sets various factors to take in to account when performing a
search, such as fuel consumption, vehicle model, fuel costs, and
maximum speeds on normal roads and expressways.
• (Navigation Mode):
You can change between On-road and Off-road.
Set to On-road to perform normal navigation, or set to Off-road
to navigate using the straightest possible route to the
destination.
• (Route Planning Method):
By changing the route search method, you can search for the
optimum route for a variety of si tuations and types of vehicle.
See the following items for more details.
• ( Hig hw ays):
Select whether or not to use the expressway when creating the
route.
• (Period Charge):
Select whether or not to use toll roads (Period Charge) when
creating the route.
• (Per-use Toll):
Select whether or not to use to ll roads (Per-use Toll) when
creating the route.
• (Ferries): Select whether or not to use ferries when creating the
route.(However, ferries might not always be selected for the
route.)However, information on temporary service ferries may
not be displayed on the map. There may be a fee for using the
ferry. •
(Carpool/HOV ):
Select whether or not to use Carpool/HOV lanes when creating
the route.
• (Unpaved Roads):
Select whether or not to use unpaved roads when creating the
route.
• (Calculate Green Alternative):
Select whether or not to consi der energy efficiency when
creating the route.
3Touch (Back) to set the changes. The route is
searched again, and the new recommended route is
indicated by an orange line.

Reference Data
• (Day Map Color):
Select the screen color used in daytime mode.
- The view changes between night view and day view each time you touch
or .
• (Night Map Color):
Select the screen color used in nighttime mode.
- The view changes between night view and day view each time you touch
or .
• (Track Logs):
Turns the path log save function on or off (saves in positional order
for each trip).
• (Place Markers):
Select a spot displayed on th e map during navigation. We
recommend reducing the number of spots displayed as much as
possible as the map is difficult to see if there are too many spots.
Because of this, the software is designed to allow multiple spot
displays. Follow the steps below.
- Touch the check box to show or hide the spot category.
- Touch the spot category name to open a sub-category.
- Touch (More) to save the currentl y displayed spot position, or read
spot displays saved previously. You can also restore the default display
settings.

Glossary
2D/3D GPS reception
The GPS receiver uses signals from satellites to calculate its current
position (the user's position), but to acquire a 3D position at least four
signals are necessary, including altitude. The GPS device may not be
able to acquire signals from four satellites as they are constantly moving
and obstacles may block satellite signals. Although the accuracy
decreases when only three signals ca n be acquired, and altitude data
cannot be sent, the receiver can ca lculate a latitude and longitude GPS
position. Only 2D reception is possible.
Route being navigated
The route currently being navigated. When a destination is set, the
route will be continuously navigate d until the destination is deleted,
you arrive at the destination, or the software is closed. Also see “Route”.
City center
The center of the city/town is not th e geographical center of the city/
town, but a location set by the cartog rapher. In towns and villages, this
is usually the most important intersec tion, while in larger cities it is
selected from multiple important intersections. Color design
The color design used for the map and menu screens differs for daytime
and nighttime. Each design has a diff
erent graphic setting, with 2D and
3D each having colors for roads, bl ocks, seas, and lakes, whilst shadow
changes and shadows are displa yed differently in 3D mode.
Daytime screen and nighttime screen designs for the map and menu
are selected one at a time. The design changes automatically when day
becomes night and night becomes day.
GPS accuracy
Various factors can contribute to a margin of error between the user's
actual position and the position acquired from the GPS device. For
example, signal delays in the iono sphere or reflections from objects
around the GPS equipment, can infl uence the accuracy with which the
GPS device can calculate the user's position.
