Navigation system

3-5.Tips for the navigation system
The Global Positioning System
(GPS) developed and operated
by the U.S. Department of
Defense provides an accurate
current position, normally using
4 or more satellites, and in some
case 3 satellites. The GPS sys-
tem has a certain level of inac-
curacy. While the navigation
system compensates for this
most of the time, occasional
positioning errors of up to 300 ft.
(100 m) can and should be
expected. Generally, position
errors will be corrected within a
few seconds.
When the vehicle is not receiv-
ing signals from satellites, the
unreceived GPS mark appears
on the map screen. When the
vehicle is receiving the signals,
the unreceived GPS mark does not appear on the map screen.
The GPS signal may be physi-
cally obstructed, leading to inac-
curate vehicle position on the
map screen. Tunnels, tall build-
ings, trucks, or even the place-
ment of objects on the
instrument 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 sys-
tem is receiving clear GPS sig-
nals, the vehicle position may
not be shown accurately or inap-
propriate route guidance may
occur in some cases.

Accurate current position may
not be shown in the following
cases:
• When driving on a small angled
Y-shaped road.
• When driving on a winding road.
• When driving on a slippery road such as in sand, gravel, snow,
etc.
GPS (Global Position-
ing System)
This navigation system cal-
culates the current position
using satellite signals, vari-
ous vehicle signals, map
data, etc. However, an accu-
rate position may not be
shown depending on satel-
lite conditions, road config-
uration, vehicle condition or
other circumstances.
Limitations of the naviga-
tion system
NOTICE
●The installation of window tint-
ing may obstruct the GPS sig-
nals. Most window tinting
contains some metallic content
that will interf ere with GPS sig-
nal reception of the antenna in
the instrument panel. We advise
against the use of window tint-
ing on vehicles equipped with
navigation systems.

1243-5. Tips for the navigation system
AVALON_AVALON HV_Navi_(U)• When driving on a long straight
road.
• When freeway and surface streets run in parallel.
• After moving by ferry or vehicle carrier.
• When a long route is searched during high speed driving.
• When driving without setting the current position calibration cor-
rectly.
• After repeating a change of direc- tion by going forward and back-
ward, or turning on a turntable in
a parking lot.
• When leaving a covered parking lot or parking garage.
• When a roof carrier is installed.
• When driving with tire chains installed.
• When the tires are worn.
• After replacing a tire or tires.
• When using tires that are smaller or larger than the factory specifi-
cations.
• When the tire pressure in any of the 4 tires is not correct.
 If the vehicle cannot receive
GPS signals, the current posi-
tion can be adjusted manu-
ally. For information on setting
the current position calibra-
tion: P. 1 1 7
 Inappropriate route guidance
may occur in the following
cases:
• When turning at an intersection
off the designated route guid-
ance. • If you set more than 1 destination
but skip any of them, auto reroute
will display a rout e returning to
the destination on the previous
route.
• When turning at an intersection for which there is no route guid-
ance.
• When passing through an inter- section for which there is no route
guidance.
• During auto rer oute, the route
guidance may not be available for
the next turn to t he right or left.
• During high speed driving, it may take a long time fo r auto reroute
to operate. In auto reroute, a
detour route may be shown.
• After auto reroute, the route may not be changed.
• If an unnecessary U-turn is shown or announced.
• If a location has multiple names
and the system announces 1 or
more of them.
• When a route cannot be searched.
• If the route to your destination includes gravel, unpaved roads or
alleys, the route guidance may
not be shown.
• Your destination point might be shown on the opposite side of the
street.
• When a portion of the route has regulations prohibiting the entry
of the vehicle that vary by time,
season or other reasons.
• The road and map data stored in the navigation system may not be
complete or may not be the latest

After replacing a tire: P. 1 1 7
●This navigation system uses tire
turning data and is designed to
work with factory- specified tires
for the vehicle. Ins talling tires that
are larger or smaller than the orig-
inally equipped diameter may
cause inaccurate display of the
current position. The tire pressure
also affects the diameter of the
tires, so make sure that the tire
pressure of all 4 tires is correct.

If the map data has been pro-
vided from the Cloud for any of
the following areas and the map
data in the navigation system is
older than what has been pro-
vided, the displayed map will be
updated temporarily:
• Areas around the area dis-
played on the map screen
(example: areas around cur-
rent position)
• Areas around destinations
• Areas along the set route
●The updated data will temporarily
be saved in the navigation sys-
tem.
●If temporary updat e data exceeds
the available memory in the tem-
porary map cache, the oldest data
will be deleted.
●The temporary map data will dis-
appear when the expiration date
has passed.
