The Navigation System is one of the most technologically advanced vehicle ac-
cessories ever developed. The system receives satellite signals from the Global 
Positioning System (GPS) operated by  the U.S. Depa
rtment of Defense. Using 
these signals and other vehicle sensors, the system indicates your present po -
sition and assists in locating a desired destination.
The navigation system is designed to select efficient routes from your present  
starting location to your destination. The  s
ystem is also designed to direct you 
to a destination that is unfamiliar to you in an efficient manner. Map database is  
made based on AISIN AW maps, whose information source comes from HERE  
maps. The calculated routes may not be the shortest nor the least traffic con -
gested. Your own personal 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 ho
tels. If a destination 
is not in the database, you can enter the street address or a major intersection  
close to it and the system will guide you there.
The system will provide both a visual map and audio instructions. The audio in -
structions will announce the distance remaining and the direction to turn in when  
approaching a n intersection. The
se voice instructions will help you keep your  
eyes on the road and are timed to provide enough time to allow you to maneu-
ver, change lanes or slow down.
Please be aware that all current vehicle navigation systems have certain limita -
tions that may affect their ability to perform properly. The accuracy of the vehi -
cle’s position depends on satellite conditions, road configuration, vehicle  
condition or othe r circumstances. For more information 
on the limitations of the 
system, refer to page  251.

2. RADIO OPERATION
When problems occur with the XM tuner, a message will appear on the screen. Re-
ferring to the table below to identify the problem, take the suggested c\
orrective ac-
tion.
The XM antenna is not connected. Check whether the XM antenna  
cable is attached securely.
A short circuit occurs in the antenna or the surrounding antenna ca-
ble. See a Toyota certified dealer for assistance.
You have not subscribed to XM Satellite Radio. The radio is being  
updated with the latest encryption code. Contact XM Satellite Radio  
for subscription information. When a contract is canceled, you can  
choose “Ch 000” and all free-to-air channels.
The premium channel you selected is not authorized. Wait for about  
2 seconds until the radio returns to the previous channel or “Ch 001”.  
If it does not change automatically,  select another channel. To listen 
to the premium channel, contact XM Satellite Radio.
The XM signal is too weak at the current location. Wait until your ve-
hicle reaches a location with a stronger signal.
The unit is acquiring audio or program  information. Wait until the unit 
has received the information.
The channel you selected is not br oadcasting any programming. Se-
lect another channel.
There is no song/program title or artist name/feature associated with  
the channel at that time. No action is required.
The channel you selected is no longer  available. Wait for about 2 
seconds until the radio returns to the previous channel or “Ch 001”.  
If it does not change automatically, select another channel.

6. TIPS FOR THE NAVIGATION SYSTEM
1. GPS (GLOBAL POSITIONING SYSTEM)
LIMITATIONS OF THE 
NAVIGATION 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 in-
accuracy. While the navigation system  
compensates for this mo st of the time, oc-
casional positioning errors of up to 300 ft.  
(100 m) can and should be expected. Gen-
erally, position errors will be corrected  
within a few seconds. When the vehicle is receiving signals from
 
satelli te
s, the “GPS” mark appears at the  
top left of the screen.
The GPS signal may be physically ob-
structed, leading to inaccurate vehicle po-
sition on the map screen. Tunnels, tall 
buildings, trucks, or even the placement of  
objects on the control 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 re-
ceiving clear GPS signals, the vehicle po-
sition may not be shown accurately or  
inappropriate route guidance may occur in  
some cases.
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 con-
dition 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.
