ROUTE GUIDANCE
ABOUT ROUTE GUIDANCE
After setting the route, select [Start] to start
the route guidance.
During route guidance, the system navigates
you through the guide points using visual
and voice guidance.
WARNING
. The navigation system’s visual and
voice guidance is for reference pur-
poses only. The contents of the gui-
dance may be inappropriate
depending on the situation.
. Follow all traffic regulations when
driving along the suggested route
(e.g., one-way traffic).
“Route guidance” (page 6-42)
Voice guidance during route gui-
dance
Basics of voice guidance:
Voice guidance announces which direction
to turn when approaching an intersection for
which a turn is necessary.
INFO:
. There may be some cases in which voice
guidance and actual road conditions do
not correspond. This may occur because
of discrepancies between the actual road
and the information on the map data, or
may also be due to the vehicle speed.
. In case voice guidance does not corre-
spond to the actual road conditions,
follow the information obtained from
traffic signs or notices on the road.
. Route guidance provided by the naviga-
tion system does not take carpool lane
driving into consideration, especially
when carpool lanes are separated from
other road lanes.
. The system will announce street names
when the system language is set to
English. Street names are not announced
when the system is set to French or
Spanish.
. When approaching a guide point (inter-
section or corner) or destination/way-
point during route guidance, voice
guidance announces the remaining dis-
tance and/or turning direction. Push and
hold

*Areas with numerous tall trees
*In canyons
INFO:
The GPS antenna is located behind the
instrument panel. Do not place any objects,
especially cellular phones or transceivers, on
the instrument panel. Because the strength
of the GPS signal is approximately one
billionth of that of TV waves, phones and
transceivers will affect or may totally disrupt
the signal.
Incorrect display of vehicle position
The following cases may affect the display
accuracy of the vehicle’s position or traveling
direction. The accuracy will return to normal
if the driving conditions return to normal.
* When there is a similar road nearby.
*When the vehicle is traveling in an area
with a grid pattern road system.
*When the vehicle is passing through a
large Y-shaped intersection/junction.

Notes on voice guidance
.Voice guidance in this system should be
regarded as a supplementary function.
When driving the vehicle, check the route
on the map and follow the actual roads
and traffic regulations.
. Voice guidance is activated only for
intersections with certain conditions.
There may be cases where the vehicle
has to turn, but voice guidance is not
provided.
. Voice guidance contents may vary, de-
pending on the direction of the turn and
the type of intersection.
. The voice guidance timing will vary
depending 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 6-19)
. Voice guidance may not accurately cor-
respond with road numbers and direc-
tions at freeway junctions. .
Voice guidance may not accurately cor-
respond to street names at freeway
exits.
. The displayed street names may some-
times differ from the actual names.
. Voice guidance is not available when the
[Guidance Voice] is turned off.
. 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
guidance will announce, “You have ar-
rived 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 destination. .
Voice guidance may be partially opera-
tional or inoperative due to the angle of
roads at an intersection.
. Because freeway lane information is
available 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 season-
ally available 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 driv-
ing.

ROUTE CALCULATION
.There may be cases where carpool lanes
are included on a suggested route when
the automatic rerouting function is acti-
vated, even if the [Time Restricted
Roads] is set to [Use Restriction Info]
or [Avoid].
“Route Preference” (page 6-17)
. The suggested route may not be the
shortest, nor are other circumstances
such as traffic jams considered.
. Because of the inevitable difference in
road conditions and circumstances be-
tween the time you use this system and
the time the information was produced
for the map data, there may be discre-
pancies in roads and regulations. In such
cases, actual road conditions and regula-
tions 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 move-
ment.
. In some cases, after the calculation is
complete, the calculated route may not
be immediately displayed. .
Waypoints that have been passed will be
disregarded by rerouting calculation.
. If you scroll the map while the suggested
route is being drawn, it may take more
time to finish drawing.
. Route calculation may not be completed
in the following cases.
— If there is no main road within a range of 1.5 miles (2.5 km) from the vehicle,
a message saying so will appear on
the screen. Try recalculating when the
vehicle is closer to a main road.
— If there is no main road within a range of 1.5 miles (2.5 km) from the desti-
nation or waypoint, a message saying
so will appear on the screen. Try
setting the location closer to a main
road.
— If the vehicle is too close to the destination or if there are no roads
to the destination, a message saying
so will appear on the screen.
— If it is impossible to reach the destina- tion or waypoints because of traffic
regulations, etc.
— If the only route to reach the destina- tion or waypoints is extremely com- plicated.
. The following may occur when the route
is displayed.
— If you calculate a route on a main road, the starting 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 accurate. 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 re-
calculating 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 informa-
tion. In order to correct this, you must
be careful about the traffic direction,
especially when lanes with different
travel directions are shown sepa-
rately, such as interchanges and ser-

INFO:
To use the voice recognition function, you
can speak commands in the order of 1st
command, 2nd command and 3rd command. You can also operate the system by directly
speaking the 2nd command.
How to speak numbers
The Voice Recognition System requires the
user to speak numbers in a certain way when
giving voice commands.
General rule:
“500”, “800” and “900” can be pronounced
as “five hundred”, “eight hundred” and “nine
hundred” respectively.
For other numbers, only single digits “0”
(zero) to “9” can be used. (For example, for
the number “600”, speaking “six zero zero”
can be recognized by the system, but “six
hundred” cannot be recognized.)
Example:
1-800-662-6200
“One eight hundred six six two six two zero
zero”
INFO:
For the best recognition, speak “zero” for the
number “0”, and “oh” for the letter “o”.
