ROUTE CALCULATION
.There may be cases where carpool lanes are
included on a suggested route when the
automatic rerouting function is activated,
even if the [Time Restricted Rd] is set to
[Use Restriction Info] or [Avoid].
“Route Settings” (page 6-41)
. The navigation system does not provide
route guidance for roads displayed in dark
green.
. If the destination is set on a dark green road,
the enlarged map display will switch to the
ordinary map screen at some point and
suggest a route that is near the destination.
The distance and direction to the endpoint of
the suggested route will be displayed in the
lower right corner of the screen. Also, at this
time, voice guidance will announce, “The
route to your destination includes roads
through incomplete map areas. Voice gui-
dance will not be provided in these areas.”
When approaching the endpoint of the
suggested route, voice guidance will an-
nounce, “Entering the road with incomplete
map data. Please use the direction arrow and distance information to proceed to your
destination.”
To reach the destination, refer to the map
screen. Always follow actual roads and
regulations and drive safely.
. The suggested route may not be the short-
est, nor are other circumstances such as
traffic jams considered.
. Because of the inevitable difference in road
conditions and circumstances between the
time you use this system and the time the
information was produced for the map data,
there may be discrepancies in roads and
regulations. In such cases, actual road
conditions and regulations take precedence
over map data information.
. During route calculation, the map will not
scroll, however the vehicle icon will move
according to the actual vehicle’s movement.

— If you calculate a route on a main road, thestarting point of the route may not exactly
match the current vehicle location.
— The endpoint of the route may not exactly 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 accu-
rate. 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 automatically 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 directions 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 ferry preference is set to OFF, a
route that uses a ferry line may be
suggested.
ROUTE GUIDANCE
INFO:
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/Spanish.
Repeating voice guidance
This function is available throughout route
guidance, from the time after the route calcula-
tion is completed until the vehicle arrives at the
destination. Push and hold the
(page 2-15)
. 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 gui-
dance will announce, “You have arrived at
waypoint 1 (2, 3, 4,...) .” Voice guidance will
switch to the next section of the route. When
voice guidance 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 destina-
tion.
. Voice guidance may be partially operational
or inoperative due to the angle of roads at an
intersection.
. Because freeway lane information is avail-
able 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 seasonally avail-
able 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.
MAP DATA
How to handle the Map SD card
An SD card that includes the map data is
inserted. When handling the Map SD card,
please be careful and adhere to the following
instructions:
. An SD card is inserted in the slot. This is the
SDHC card that is exclusively used for this
device. This card includes the map data. The
SDHC card is necessary to operate the device. Do not remove this card except when
updating the map data is required.
. Never analyze, modify, delete or format the
map data. Doing so may cause an improper
operation of the device.
. The SDHC card that is exclusively used for
this device does not work properly if it is
inserted in another device.
. The map data cannot be used even if it is
copied to another SDHC card.
. Do not remove the SDHC card containing
map data from the system. Using the system
with the SDHC card containing map data
removed will prevent some functions from
operating.
NOTE:
Do not remove the SD card containing map
data that is inserted in the slot. When this
SD card containing map data is removed
the navigation system will not operate. If
the SD card containing map data is acci-
dentally removed, after reinserting the SD
card containing map data into the slot,
place the ignition switch in the “OFF”
position and then place it back in the
“ON” position.
