.When the vehicle is rotated on a
parking lot turntable while the ignition
switch is off.
.When driving on a road not displayed
on the map screen or a road that has
been changed due to additional con-
struction or other reasons.
.When the GPS positioning accuracy is
low.
INFO:
.
The vehicle icon may be misaligned when
starting the vehicle just after starting the
engine or the hybrid system.
.The vehicle icon may also be misaligned if
different sized tires or tire chains are
installed.
.The system has a function that automati-
cally corrects the vehicle icon position when
it is misaligned from the actual position.
.Vehicle position correction by GPS may not
function when the vehicle is stopped.
.If the vehicle icon position does not return
to normal even after driving for a while,
correct the vehicle icon position manually.

DETAILED MAP COVERAGE AREAS
(MCA) FOR NAVIGATION SYSTEM
This system is designed to help guiding to
the destination, and it also performs other
functions as outlined in this manual.
However, the system must be used safely
and properly. Information concerning road
conditions, traffic signs and the availability
of services may not always be up-to-date.
The system is not a substitute for safe,
proper and legal driving. Map data covers
select metropolitan areas in the United
States and Canada.
Map data includes two types of areas:
“ Detailed coverage areas” providing all
detailed road data and other areas show-
ing “Main roads only”.
NOTE:
Detailed map data is not available in many
areas and is generally limited to select major
metropolitan areas.
10. General system information

.Waypoints that have been passed will
be disregarded by rerouting calcula-
tion.
. If you scroll the map while the sug-
gested route is being drawn, it may
take more time to finish drawing.
. If waypoints are set, the system calcu-
lates multiple routes between way-
points simultaneously, and the
following may result.
—
If one section between waypoints cannot
be calculated, none of the route will be
displayed.
—The route may not connect completely at
some waypoints.
—The route may require a U-turn close tosome waypoints.
. Route calculation may not be com-
pleted in the following cases.
—
If there is no main road within a range of
1.5 miles (2.5 km) from the vehicle, a
message saying so will appear on the
screen. Try recalculating when the vehi-
cle is closer to a main road.
—If there is no main road within a range of1.5 miles (2.5 km) from the destination
or waypoint, a message saying so will appear on the screen. Try setting the
location closer to a main road.
—If the vehicle is too close to the
destination or if there are no roads to
the destination, a message saying so
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 destination
or waypoints is extremely complicated.
—If the destination, current vehicle posi-tion or waypoint is within the “Avoid
Area”.
—If a part of the route is included in the “Avoid Area”.
. 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 system
shows 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.

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.NOTES ON NavTraffic INFORMATION
