6. Navigation (if so equipped)
GENERAL INFORMATION FOR
NAVIGATION SYSTEM
CURRENT VEHICLE LOCATION
Display of current vehicle location
This navigation system combines the data
obtained from the vehicle (by gyro sensor)
and from GPS (Global Positioning System)
satellites to calculate the current location of
the vehicle. This position is then displayed
throughout route guidance to a destination.
What is GPS (Global Positioning
System)?
GPS is a position detecting system that uses
satellites deployed by the U.S. government.
This navigation system receives radio signals
from three or more different satellites that
orbit 13,049 miles (21,000 km) above the
earth in space, and detect the position of the
vehicle by utilizing the principle of triangula-
tion.
Positioning adjustment:
When the system judges that the vehicle
position is not accurate based on vehicle
speed and gyro sensor data calculations, the
system will automatically adjust the position of the vehicle icon using GPS signals.
Receiving signals from GPS satellites:
The reception of GPS signals can be weak,
depending on the environment. Vehicles in
the following areas/environments may not
receive GPS signals.
* Inside tunnels or parking garages
*In areas with numerous tall buildings
*Under multi-layered highways

7. Voice recognition
— Not all POI main categories can beused for “Navigate to” searches with
voice command operations while all
registered categories can be recog-
nized as “Nearby” search.
. Street Address:
— Alphabet letters cannot be included when speaking a house number.
When a specified house number can-
not be found, a location representing
the address will be displayed.
— Speak in a natural conversational speed without pausing between
words for better recognition.
— When the system recognizes the com- mand incorrectly, correct the search
conditions using commands such as
“Change State”, “Change City”,
“Change Street” or “Change House
Number”.
For audio command operation:
. Music files of Bluetooth® audio cannot
be selected by voice recognition opera-
tion. However, audio source can be

be pronounced for voice recognition
operation.
. Some audio command may not be re-
cognized when an Android phone is
connected and used as a USB audio
device player.
For information command operation:
. A SiriusXM® Travel Link (if so equipped)
or SiriusXM Traffic
TM(if so equipped)
subscription is necessary to receive Sir-
iusXM® information services.

Symptom Possible cause Possible solution
Delay in digital audio on HD Radio broadcasts. The radio acquires an analog station first and blends to an digital signal.This is not a malfunction.
Audio skips, stutters, or echoes. The radio station has not properly aligned the
digital and analog audio. Verify correct operation on another station.
Report any station with poor performance.
Volume changing up/down. The radio station has not properly aligned digital

tions in the area. Report any stations with poor
alignment.
Excessive blending (Transition between analog
and digital). The vehicle is located near the edge of the digital
coverage area.Refer to www.hdradio.com to verify radio

SymptomPossible cause Possible solution
When a cellular phone is operated to make
a call, the hands-free function becomes
unavailable. Some models of a cellular phone do not switch
to the hands-free mode when they are operated
to make a call. This is not a malfunction. Make another call using the
hands-free function.
The other party’s voice cannot be heard.
There is no ringtone. The volume level is set to the minimum. Adjust the volume level.
“Volume and Beeps settings” (page 2-32)
A cellular phone is not connected. Check the registration procedure, and then register the cellular phone again.
Each volume level (ringtone, incoming voice
or outgoing voice) is different. Each volume level is not adjusted properly. Adjust each volume level properly.
The antenna display and remaining battery
level are different between the touch
screen display and a cellular phone screen.
Making or receiving a call is unavailable
even though the antenna display shows
that it is possible to do so. The antenna display varies depending on the
model of cellular phone.
This does not indicate a malfunction. The antenna
display and remaining battery level shown on the
touch screen display may be different from those
shown on the cellular phone screen. Use them as a
reference.
A voice cannot be heard clearly when using
a cellular phone behind tall buildings. Some structures such as tall buildings, etc. may
cause irregular reflection of radio waves or
completely shut out radio waves that are used
for cellular phones. Move to a place without tall buildings.
Noise is heard when using a cellular phone
under/near areas of elevated railroads,
high voltage electric power cables, traffic
signals, neon billboards, etc. Electromagnetic waves that are generated from
radio devices may adversely affect the cellular
phone.
This is not a malfunction.
Noise is heard in the sound from the audio
system while using a cellular phone. Radio waves that are generated from a cellular
phone may adversely affect the sound from the
audio system. This is not a malfunction.
Sound skips or stutters. The cellular phone may have turned on the wireless LAN (Wi-Fi). Turn off the wireless LAN (Wi-Fi).
