This manual explains the operation of the Navigation System. Please read this manual
carefully to ensure proper use. Keep th is manual in your vehicle at all times.
The screen shots in this document and the actual screens of the navigation system dif-
fer depending on whether the functions and/or a contract existed and the map data
was available at the time of producing this document.
Please be aware that the content of this manual may be different from the navigation
system in some cases, such as when the system’s software is updated.
The Navigation System is one of the most technologically advanced vehicle accesso-
ries 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 yo ur present position and assists in locating
a desired destination.
The navigation system is desi gned to select efficient routes from your present starting
location to your destination. The system is al so designed to direct you to a destination
that is unfamiliar to you in an efficient manner. The system uses DENSO maps. The cal-
culated routes may not be the shortest nor the least traffic congested. Your own per-
sonal 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 destination is not in the da-
tabase, you can enter the street address or a major intersection close to it and the sys-
tem will guide you there.
The system will provide both a visual map and audio instructions. The audio instructions
will announce the distance remaining and the direction to turn in when approaching an
intersection. These voice instructions will he lp you keep your eyes on the road and are
timed to provide enough time to allow you to maneuver, change lanes or slow down.
Please be aware that all current vehicle navi gation systems have certain limitations that
may affect their ability to perform properly. The accuracy of the vehicle’s position de-
pends on satellite conditions, road configuration, vehicle condition or other circum-
stances. For more information on the limi tations of the system, refer to pages 149
through 151.

6. TIPS FOR THE NAVIGATION SYSTEM
1. GPS (GLOBAL POSITIONING 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 inaccura-
cy. While the navigation system compen-
sates for this most of the time, occasional
positioning errors of up to 300 ft. (100 m)
can and should be expected. Generally, po-
sition 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 obstruct-
ed, leading to inaccurate vehicle position on
the map screen. Tunnel
s, tall buildings,
trucks, or even the pl acement of objects on
the instrument panel may obstruct 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 receiv-
ing clear GPS signals, the vehicle position
may not be shown accurately or inappropri-
ate route guidance may occur in some cas-
es.
LIMITATIONS OF THE
NAVIGATION SYSTEM
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 condi-
tion 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.

1. LEXUS ENFORM WITH SAFETY CONNECT OVERVIEW
GX_EMVN_OM60K84U_(U)13.07.02 11:50
INFORMATION
●
Exposure to radio frequency signals:
The Lexus Enform with Safety Connect
system installed in your vehicle is a low
power radio transmitter and receiver. The
system receives and also sends out radio
frequency (RF) signals.
●In August 1996, the Federal Communi-
cations Commission (FCC) adopted RF
exposure guidelines with safety levels for
mobile wireless phones. Those guidelines
are consistent with the safety standards
previously set by both U.S. and interna-
tional standards bodies.
• ANSI (American National Standards Institute) C95.1 [1992]
• NCRP (National Council on Radiation Protection and Measurement) Report
86 [1986]
• ICNIRP (International Commission on Non-Ionizing Radiation Protection)
[1996]
●Those standards were based on compre-
hensive and periodic evaluations of the
relevant scientific literature. Over 120
scientists, engineers, and physicians from
universities, government health agen-
cies, and industry reviewed the available
body of research to develop the ANSI
Standard (C95.1).
●The design of Lexus Enform with Safety
Connect complies with the FCC guide-
lines in addition to those standards.
INFORMATION
●
Available beginning Fall 2009 on select
Lexus models. Contact with the Lexus
Enform with Safety Connect response
center is dependent upon the telematics

nect-subscribed vehicles are capable of
communicating vehicle information, trig-
gering owner reminder notifications.
Owners who do not wish to have their
vehicle transmit this information can opt
out of the service at the time of enroll-
ment or by calling 1-800-255-3987 and
