Precautions for safe driving

Please observe and comply with local traffi c
rules and regulations.
• For your safety, some features cannot be
operated while driving for your safety.
Features that cannot be operated will be
disabled.
• The route displayed for destination guidance
is a reference and the route guidance will
take you to the vicinity of your destination.
The highlighted route is not always; the
shortest distance, the least congested, and
in some cases might, not be the fastest
route.
• Road, name, and POI information may
not always been completely updated.
Some places may not include up to date
information.
• The car position mark does not always
indicate your exact location. This system uses
GPS information, various sensors, and road
map data to display the current position.
However, errors in displaying your location
may occur if the satellite is transmitting
inaccurate signals or two or less satellite
signals can be received. Errors that occur in
such conditions cannot be corrected.
• The position of the vehicle within the
navigation may diff er from your actual
location depending on various reasons,
including the satellite transmission
state, vehicle state (driving location and
conditions), etc. Additionally, the car
position mark may diff er from the actual
position if the map data is diff erent from
the actual road landscape, such as changes
due to the construction of new roads. If
such diff erences occur, driving for a short
period of time will automatically correct
the position of the vehicle through map
matching or GPS information.

What is GPS?

The Global Positioning System (GPS) is a
satellite-based navigation system made up of
a network of 24 satellites placed into orbit by
the U.S. Department of Defense.
GPS was originally intended for military
applications, but in the 1980s, the government
made the system available for civilian use.
GPS works in any weather conditions,
anywhere in the world, 24 hours a day.
There are no subscription fees or setup charges
to use GPS.

About satellite signals

Your unit must acquire satellite signals to
operate. If you are indoors, near tall buildings
or trees, or in a parking garage, the unit cannot
acquire satellite signal.

Acquiring satellite signals

Before the unit can determine your current
position and navigate a route, you must do the
following steps:
1. Go outside to an area free from tall
obstructions.
2. Turn on the unit.
Acquiring satellite signals can take a few
minutes.
