ABOUT ROUTE GUIDANCE
After setting the route, select [Start] to
start route guidance.
Throughout route guidance, the system
navigates you through the guide points
using visual and voice guidance.
CAUTION!
.The navigation system’s visual and voice
guidance is for reference purposes only.
The contents of the guidance may be
inappropriate depending on the situa-
tion.
. Follow all traffic regulations when driving
along the suggested route (e.g., one-way
traffic).
“Route guidance” (page 9-64)
Voice guidance during route gui-
dance
Basics of voice guidance:
Voice guidance announces which direction
to turn when approaching an intersection
for which a turn is necessary.
INFO:
.
There may be some cases in which voice
guidance and actual road conditions do not
correspond. This may occur because of
discrepancies between the actual road and
the information on the map data, or may
also be due to the vehicle’s speed.
.In case voice guidance does not correspond
to the actual road conditions, follow the
information obtained from traffic signs or
notices on the road.
.Route guidance provided by the navigation
system does not take carpool lane driving
into consideration, especially when carpool
lanes are separated from other road lanes.
.The system will only announce street names
when the system language is set to English.
Street names are not announced when the
system is set to French or Spanish.
INFO:
When approaching a guide point (intersec-
tion or corner), destination, etc. during
route guidance, voice guidance announces
the remaining distance and/or turning
direction. Push and hold

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.

will appear on the screen.
—If it is impossible to reach the destina-tion or waypoints because of traffic
regulations, etc.
—If the only route to reach the destinationor waypoints is extremely complicated.
. The following may occur when the route
is displayed.
—
If you calculate a route on a main road,
the starting point of the route may not
exactly match the current vehicle loca-
tion.
—The endpoint of the route may notexactly match the destination.
—If you calculate a route on a main road, the system may display a route from
another main road. This may be because
the position of the vehicle icon is not
accurate. In this case, park the vehicle in
a safe location and reset the vehicle
icon, or continue driving to see if the
position of the vehicle icon is automati-
cally adjusted before recalculating the
route.
—There are cases in which the systemshows an indirect route to reach the
destination or waypoints, if you set them from stored or facility information. In
order to correct this, you must be careful
about the traffic direction, especially
when lanes with different travel direc-
tions are shown separately, such as
interchanges and service areas.
—This system makes no distinction be-
tween limited traffic control and total
control (blockage). It may show an
indirect route even if the road is usable.
—Even if the freeway preference is set toOFF, a route that uses the freeway may
be suggested.
—Even if the ferry preference is set to OFF,
a route that uses a ferry line may be
suggested.

The system will only announce street names
when the system language is set to English.
Street names are not announced when the

Repeating voice guidance
This function is available throughout route
guidance, from the time after the route
calculation is completed until the vehicle
arrives at the destination. Push and hold
the
.Voice guidance is activated only for
intersections with certain conditions.
There may be cases where the vehicle
has to turn, but voice guidance is not
provided.
. Voice guidance contents may vary,
depending on the direction of the turn
and the type of intersection.
. The voice guidance timing will vary
depending on the situation.
. When the vehicle has deviated from the
suggested route, voice guidance is not
available. The system will not announce
this. Refer to the map and recalculate
the route.
“Recalculating route” (page 9-38)
. Voice guidance may not accurately
correspond with road numbers and
directions at freeway junctions.
. Voice guidance may not accurately
correspond to street names at freeway
exits.
. The displayed street names may some-
times differ from the actual names, or
“UNKNOWN STREET NAME” may be
displayed. .
Voice guidance is not available when
the [Voice Guidance] is turned off.
“Volume settings” (page 2-18)
. Voice guidance will start when the
vehicle enters the suggested route.
Refer to the map for directions to the
starting point of the route.
. When approaching a waypoint, voice
guidance will announce, “You have
arrived at waypoint 1 (2, 3, 4,...).”
Voice guidance will switch to the next
section of the route. When voice gui-
dance is not available, refer to the map
for directions.
. In some cases, voice guidance ends
before arrival at the destination. Refer
to the destination icon on the map to
reach the destination.
. If the system recognizes on which side
the destination (waypoint) is located,
voice guidance will announce “on the
right/left” after announcing the arrival
at the destination.
. Voice guidance may be partially opera-
tional or inoperative due to the angle of
roads at an intersection. .
Because freeway lane information is
available only for approximately 7,000
major freeways in North America, it is
not possible to display information for
all junctions and exits.
. Freeway exit information may differ
from the information on the actual exit
signs.
. Because it is not possible to consider
data concerning roads that are season-
ally available or unavailable, a route
may be displayed that does not match
the actual traffic restrictions. Be sure to
follow the actual traffic restrictions
while driving.
. Canada and Alaska contain many roads
with incomplete map data. As a result,
when searching for a route, the route
may include roads with incomplete
data. In regions where road data is
not complete, voice guidance may stop
for long periods of time. Be sure to
follow the actual traffic restrictions
while driving.

or route you into an area you consider
unsafe.
. The advice provided by the navigation
system is to be regarded only as a
suggestion. There may be situations
where the navigation system displays
the vehicle’s location incorrectly, fails to
suggest the shortest course, and/or fails
to direct you to your desired destination.
In such situations, rely on your own
driving judgement, talking into account
current driving conditions.
. Do not use the navigation system to
route you to emergency services. The
database does not contain a complete
listing of locations of emergency service
providers such as police, fire stations,
hospitals and clinics. Please use your
judgement and your ability to ask for
directions in these situations.
. As the driver you solely are responsible
for your driving safety.
— In order to avoid traffic accidents, do
not operate the system while driving.
— In order to avoid traffic accidents,
operate the system only when the
vehicle is stopped at a safe place and
the parking brake is set. —
In order to avoid traffic accidents or
traffic offence, remember that actual
road conditions and traffic regulations
take precedence over the information
contained on the navigation system.
— Accordingly, the Software may contain
inaccurate or incomplete information
due the passage of time, changing
circumstances, and due to the nature
of the sources used. Please observe
the actual traffic circumstances and
regulations at all times while driving.
— In a situation when actual road
conditions and traffic regulations differ
from the information contained on the
navigation system, then abide by
traffic rules.
— The navigation system does not pro-
vide, or account for in any way,
information regarding traffic and road
laws; speed restrictions; road condi-
tions including road slope, grade, and/
or surface conditions; obstruction in-
formation including bridge and tunnel
height and width, and/or other pre-
vailing driving and/or road conditions.
Always rely on your own driving judg-
ment, taking into account current driving conditions.
— Minimize the amount of time spent
viewing the screen while driving.
