Voice Control Navigation
By using the voice control system (voice input microphone
and button), you can set the destination by giving voice
commands. This enables you to use functions that are usually
inoperable while driving.
1By using the voice recognition button you can use voice
commands to operate the navigation. (See Page 284.)
2When using voice commands to operate the navigation,
a command list is displayed.
3Voice a command after the “beep”. From then on, you
can give voice commands that are displayed on the
command list to set the destination in the same manner.
• Voice control navigation can be interrupted by touching the
microphone icon on the screen. When the icon is touched, the
screen background color changes (green  blue). To resume
navigation voice control, touc h the microphone icon again.
The differences in background colors are explained below.
- Command standby screen (green): This is the voice control command standby screen. When this
screen is displayed, you ca n speak a command to perform
navigation control. You can also perform control by directly
touching the commands that ar e displayed on the screen.
- Manual mode screen (blue): This screen appears when voice control is interrupted. You can
perform control by directly touching the commands that are
displayed on the screen.
- Talkback screen (yellow): This screen appears while the talkback voice is being played
when a command is recognized.
- Command recognition failed screen (red): This screen appears when command recognition failed.

Glossary
Route
The route is an ordered arrangement of the route events (the next
change in the route - right or left turns, roundabouts, and so on),
presenting them as they occur until you reach your destination. If there
is one starting point, there must be at least one destination. On startup,
the start point is the current position (or the last confirmed position). If
you need to check a route that is not currently being driven, you can
move the start point to wherever you want.
Heads-up Map Direction
Heads-up mode rotates the map so that the direction you are currently
traveling is always at the top of the map. This is the default direction in
3D map display mode. Also see “North Up Map Direction”.
Glossary
To enhance your enjoyment of this pr oduct, please familiarize yourself
with the following terms. • GPS (Global Positioning System)
GPS is a system that detects the current location (latitude, longitude,
altitude) by receiving radio waves fr om 4 or more GPS satellites in
normal situations, or sometimes from 3 satellites.
These satellites are launched and managed by the US Department of
Defense mainly for military use, bu t they are also open for private
use. This unit performs navigati on using GPS information, various
sensors, and road map data.

Further Information
NOTE•Because the GPS satellite is in orbit around the earth, the reception status for
the electromagnetic waves changes depend ing on their position at that point
in time, even if your vehicle is in th e same place. Also, electromagnetic-waves
from satellites near the horizon can be easily influenced by surrounding
obstacles.
• At times, satellites under the control of the US Department of Defence will
intentionally drop positioning accuracy.
Regarding Errors in Current Position Display
The system displays the vehicle current position based on GPS
information and data from various sensors and road maps. However,
when the radiowave signals from GPS satellites are weak or when
signals are received only from two sate llites or less, errors may occur in
the position. Modifying or adjusting the system will not prevent these
errors.
• In underground buil dings and indoor
parking lots • In places with a lot of overgrown
trees and so on
• Under elevated roads • Roads at the base of cliffs and caves

Further Information
Regarding Roads and Place Name Data
Because road and place names may change after the map data has
been created, there may be times when road and place names do not
match.
When no information is available in the map data, function such as
display of road names, searching for facilities, and route guidance
cannot be used.
When maps are created, land surv eys are conducted and information
about roads improvement and opening is collected to provide the
most accurate information possible. However, modifications in roads,
place names and facilities may be carried out at any time.
Consequently, we cannot guarantee that map data contains no errors
in road positions, configuration and names, or in facility names.
The navigation system includes a func tion to read out names of roads,
intersections, and so on during guidance.
Depending on the selected language , names read out by the system
may not be exactly accurate due to missing information in map data.
Regarding Route Navigation
• It may deviate from the route
navigation when there is a turn at an
intersection etc., and a mistake in the
voice navigation. • When searching for the route, it may
take the long way around.
• The route may need you to make a U-urn during navigation. • When driving on a straight road,
information may be displayed
indicating that you should go
straight ahead. ( When the
intersection shape is not clear and so
on.)
