Notifications will be sent to your personal
computer or cellular phone e-mail address
under the following conditions in order to
remind you to connect the charging con-
nector.
— Approximately 5 minutes after the Li-ion battery warmer starts operating while the
power switch is in the OFF state and the charging cable is not connected to the
vehicle.
— Approximately 5 minutes after the Li-ion battery warmer stops operating due to
low remaining Li-ion battery power while
the power switch is in the OFF state and
the charging cable is not connected to
the vehicle.
NOTE:
. The remaining Li-ion battery power
lowers gradually while the battery war-
mer is operating without connecting the
charging connector.
. When the remaining Li-ion battery
power lowers, the battery warmer stops
operating. When this occurs, the Li-ion
battery temperature lowers gradually,
and as a result the EV system may be

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. Map data includes two types of areas: “Detailed
coverage areas” providing all detailed road data
and other areas showing “Main roads only”.
INFO:
Detailed map data is not available in many areas
and is generally limited to select major metropo-
litan areas.
WHEN GRAY/DARK GREEN ROAD
IS DISPLAYED ON MAP
. When you are driving on a road displayed in
gray after the vehicle has deviated from the
suggested route during route guidance,
automatic rerouting may not start immedi-
ately.
. The navigation system does not provide
route guidance for roads displayed in dark
green. Therefore, if the destination is set on a
road displayed in dark green, the enlarged
map display will return to the ordinary map
screen at some point on a suggested route
that is near the destination. Also, voice
guidance will stop at some point on a
suggested route that is near the destination.
. Places information and street names near
roads displayed in gray may not be contained
in the map data.
9-5
9. General system information
.Voice guidance is activated only for inter-
sections with certain conditions. There may
be cases where the vehicle has to turn, but
voice guidance is not provided.
. Voice guidance contents may vary, depend-
ing on the direction of the turn and the type of
intersection.
. The voice guidance timing will vary depend-
ing 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 3-42)
. Voice guidance may not accurately corre-
spond with road numbers and directions at
freeway junctions.
. Voice guidance may not accurately corre-
spond to street names at freeway exits.
. The displayed street names may sometimes
differ from the actual names.
. Voice guidance is not available when the
[Guidance Voice] is turned off.
“Volume and Beeps settings”
(page 1-16) .
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.
