STORING LOCATION
Often visited locations can be stored in the
Stored Locations. The stored addresses
can be easily retrieved to set them as a
destination or waypoint. The Stored Loca-
tions can store up to 200 locations.

STORING AVOID AREA
An Avoid Area can be stored. The Avoid
Area is an area that can be excluded from a
route, such as a road that is always
congested. Once Avoid Areas are stored,
the system avoids those areas when
calculating a route. Up to 10 Avoid Areas
can be stored.

GENERAL INFORMATION FOR NAVIGA-
TION SYSYTEM
CURRENT VEHICLE LOCATION
Display of current vehicle location
This navigation system combines the data
obtained from the vehicle (by gyro sensor)
and from GPS (Global Positioning System)
satellites to calculate the current location
of the vehicle. This position is then
displayed throughout route guidance to a
destination.
What is GPS (Global Positioning
System)?
GPS is a position detecting system that
uses satellites deployed by the U.S.
government. This navigation system re-
ceives radio signals from three or more
different satellites that orbit 13,049 miles
(21,000 km) above the earth in space, and
detect the position of the vehicle by
utilizing the principle of triangulation.
Positioning adjustment:
When the system judges that the vehicle
position is not accurate based on vehicle
speed and gyro sensor data calculations,the system will automatically adjust the
position of the vehicle icon using GPS
signals.
Receiving signals from GPS satellites:
The reception of GPS signals can be weak,
depending on the environment. Vehicles in
the following areas/environments may not
receive GPS signals.
*Inside tunnels or parking garages
*In areas with numerous tall buildings
*Under multi-layered highways

INFO:
The GPS antenna is located on the instrument
panel inside the vehicle. Do not place any
objects, especially cellular phones or transcei-
vers, on the instrument panel. Because the
strength of the GPS signal is approximately one
billionth of that of TV waves, phones and
transceivers will affect or may totally disrupt
the signal.
Incorrect display of vehicle position
The following cases may affect the display
accuracy of the vehicle’s position or
traveling direction. The accuracy will return
to normal if the driving conditions return to
normal.
*When there is a similar road nearby.
*When the vehicle is traveling in an
area with a grid pattern road system.
*When the vehicle is passing through a
large Y-shaped intersection/junction.
