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 d\
estination
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 tur\
n 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 118 through 119.

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 freeway 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 111.
