Description and Operation

Navigation System Limitations

GPS Signal Reception Condition: When the GPS satellite frequency is received/transmitted in direct line, reception may not work if on or near the GPS antenna, or while traveling in the following locations.

• Tunnels
• Underground parking structures
• Under elevated roads
• Roads through forested areas
• Areas near high-rise buildings
• Canyon roads

Vehicle Position Display

1. 1
   If multipath errors occur due to reflections from buildings or similar causes, the current position mark on the navigation screen may differ from the actual vehicle position.
2. 2
   The vehicle position on the navigation system may differ from the actual position if the vehicle is under certain conditions. Driving the vehicle for a short period will correct the position in the navigation using map matching or GPS information.

   • When driving on a narrow-angle Y-intersection road, the current position may be displayed in the opposite direction.
   • If the vehicle is being transported on a car carrier, the current position mark may stop at the last position before loading.
   • When driving on a spiral road.
   • When driving in mountainous areas with sharp curves or sudden braking.
   • When exiting a parking structure, a building parking structure, or a turntable with many turns.
   • When tires have been recently replaced (especially when using spare or non-studded tires).
   • If the battery terminal has been disconnected.
   • When driving on city streets, the current position may be displayed on the opposite side of the road or in an off-road position.
   • When the zoom level is changed from the maximum zoom level to another zoom level, the current position mark may be displayed on a different road.
   • When driving in heavy traffic with frequent stops in traffic jams or at intersections.
   • When driving on slippery roads, such as deep sand, snow, etc.
   • When driving with snow chains installed.
   • When using tires of an incorrect size.
   • When the tire pressure differs between the four tires.
   • When the replacement tire is worn or used (especially non-studded tires used for a second season, etc.).
   • When driving near high-rise buildings.
   • If a roof rack is installed.
   • When driving at high speed or when calculating a long-distance route.

Route Guidance Proper route guidance may not be provided due to search conditions or the position of the driver.

• On a straight road, a straight-ahead instruction may be given.
• Guidance may not be given even when turning at an intersection.
• There are certain intersections where guidance may not be provided.
• Route guidance may indicate entry into a restricted area (restricted zone, road under construction, etc.).
• Guidance may be given to a position far from the actual destination if roads leading to the actual destination do not exist or are too narrow.
• Incorrect voice guidance may be given if the vehicle deviates from the planned route (for example, if a turn is made at an intersection while navigation guides you straight ahead).
• Map data may be missing or incorrect, which may make route guidance impossible.

Route Recalculation The following phenomena may occur after route recalculation.

• When turning at an intersection, guidance may be given for a position that differs from the current position.
• Route recalculation may take longer when driving at high speed.
• A route guidance signal to make a U-turn may appear at a location where U-turns are prohibited.
• A route guidance signal indicating entry into a restricted area (restricted zone, road under construction, etc.) may occur.
• Guidance may be given for positions far from the actual destination that do not exist or are too narrow.
• Incorrect voice guidance may be given if the vehicle deviates from the planned route (for example, if a turn is made at an intersection while navigation guides you straight ahead).
