When positioning by GPS is
impossible
! GPS positioning is disabled if signals can-
not be received from more than two GPS
satellites.
! In some driving conditions, signals from
GPS satellites may not reach your vehicle.
In this case, it is impossible for the system
to use GPS positioning.
In tunnels or en-
closed parking
garages
When driving
among high build-
ings
! If a car phone or cellular phone is used
near this product, GPS reception may be

p If a GPS signal have not been received for a
long time, your vehicle's actual position
and the current position mark on the map
diverge considerably or do not be updated.
In such case, once GPS reception is re-
stored, accuracy will be recovered.
Conditions likely to cause
noticeable positioning errors
For various reasons, such as the state of the
road you are traveling on and the reception
status of the GPS signal, the actual position of
120
En
Under elevated
