NAVIGATION SYSTEM
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 in accurate 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 naviga tion 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 104.

An antenna for the Bluetooth® connection is built in the instrument
panel. The condition of the Bluetooth® connection may deteriorate
and the system may not function when a Bluetooth® phone is used
in the following conditions and/or places:
 The cellular phone is obstructed by certain objects (such as when
it is behind the seat or in the glove box and console box).
 The cellular phone touches or is covered with metal materials.
Leave the Bluetooth
® phone in a place where the condition of the
Bluetooth® connection is good.
When the cellular phone is not connected, “No Connect” is dis-
played.

2. PHONE (HANDS-FREE SYSTEM FOR CELLULAR PHONE)
*: This profile is necessary when using
Entune. (See “ENTUNE SERVICE” on
page 270.)
The hands-free system enables calls
to be made and received without hav-
ing to take your hands off the steering
wheel.
This system supports Bluetooth
®.
Bluetooth
® is a wireless data system
that enables cellular phones to be used
without being connected by a cable or
placed in a cradle.
The operating procedure of the phone
is explained here.
 For registering and setting of the phone,
see “PHONE SETTINGS” on page 137
and “Bluetooth
® SETTINGS” on page
156.
CAUTION
● While driving, do not use a cellular
phone or connect the Bluetooth® phone.
● An antenna for the Bluetooth® connec-
tion is built in the instrument panel. Peo-
ple with implanted pacemakers or
cardiac defibrillators should maintain a
reasonable distance between them-
selves and the Bluetooth
® antennas.
The radio waves may affect the opera-
tion of such devices.
● Before using cellular phones, users of
any electrical medical device other than
implanted pacemakers and implanted
cardiac defibrillators should consult the
manufacturer of the device for informa-
tion about its operation under the influ-
ence of radio waves. Radio waves could
have unexpected effects on the opera-
tion of such medical devices.
NOTICE
●Do not leave your cellular phone in the
vehicle. The temperature inside may rise
to a level that could damage the phone.
INFORMATION
●If your cellular phone does not support
Bluetooth®, this system cannot function.
● In the following conditions, the system
may not function:
• The cellular phone is turned off.
• The current position is outside the
communication area.
• The cellular phone is not connected.
• The cellular phone has a low battery.
● When using Bluetooth
® audio and
hands-free at the same time, the follow-
ing problems may occur:
• The Bluetooth
® connection may be
cut.
• Noise may be heard on the Bluetooth
®
audio playback.
