Did any malfunction occur when the proper test in the following test patterns is performed?

●

Test pattern
Driving test finds the difference between the symptoms monitored with and without each sensor.

–

Test pattern 1: Test method with no GPS location correction
Disconnect GPS antenna connector (GT5) connected to the NAVI control unit. Accurately adjust the cur-
rent location and the direction, then drive the vehicle.

–

Test pattern 2: Test method with no map-matching
Accurately adjust the current location and the direction. Eject the map DVD-ROM from the NAVI control
unit with ignition switch turned to OFF, then drive the vehicle. After driving, insert the map DVD-ROM back
in the unit, display the track of the vehicle on the map screen and compare it with the actual road configu-
ration.

<To determine if the current-location mark skips at the same position, if so, whether it is caused by map-
matching or by GPS>
Perform test pattern 1.

–

<To determine if the pattern of streets displayed is correct or not>
Perform test pattern 1 & 2.
Compare the track of the vehicle on the map screen and the actual road configuration. For fairly accurate
tracking, plotting shall be made every several hundred meters.

–

<When the distance is adjusted accurately>
Perform test pattern 1 & 2.
Drive on a road of which distance is accurately known (by utilizing distance posts on a highway). Calculate
the rate of change (increased/decreased) of the distance by comparing with the actual distance.
Correction = A/B
A: Distance shown on the screen

Map screen and BIRDVIEW™ 
Name of the place vary with the 
screen.

Some thinning of the character data is done to 
prevent the display becoming to complex. In 
some cases and in some locations, the display 
contents may differ.
The same place name, street name, etc. may not 
be displayed every time on account of the data 
processing.

ROUTE SEARCH 

NOTE:
Except for the ordinance-designated cities and the prefectural capitals (Malfunctioning areas may be changed in the updated map disc.)

Symptom

Cause

Remedy

No route is shown.

No road to be searched is found around the des-
tination.

Find wider road (orange road or wider) 
nearby and reset the destination and passing 
points onto it. Take care of the traveling 
direction when there are separate up and 
down roads.

Starting point and the destination are too close.

Set the destination at more distant point.

Conditional traffic regulation (day of the week/
time of the day) is set at the area around the cur-
rent location or the destination.

Turn the time-regulating search conditions 
OFF. Turn “Avoid regulation time” in the 
search conditions OFF.

Indicated route is intermittent.

In some areas, highways (gray routes) are not 

used for the search

(Note)

 . Therefore, the route to 

the current location or the passing points may be 
intermittent.

System is not malfunction.

When the vehicle has passed the 
recommended route, it is deleted 
from the screen.

A recommended route is controlled by each sec-
tion. When the vehicle has passed the passing 
point 1, then the map data from the starting point 
up to the passing point 1 will be deleted. (The 
data may remain undeleted in some area.)

System is not malfunction.

Detouring route is recommended.

In some areas, highways (gray routes) are not 

used for the search

(Note)

 . Therefore, detour 

route may be recommended.

Set the route closer to the basic route (gray 
route).

A detour route may be shown when some traffic 
regulation (one-way traffic, etc.) is set at the area 
around the starting point or the destination.

Slightly move the starting point or the desti-
nation, or set the passing point on the route 
of your choice.

In the area where highways (gray routes) are 
used for the search, left turn has priority around 
the current location and the destination (passing 
points). For this reason, the recommended route 
may be detouring.

System is not malfunction.

Landmarks on the map do not 
match the actual ones.

This can be happen due to omission or error in 
the map data.

As a rule, an updated map DVD-ROM will be 
released once a year. Wait until the latest 
map has become available.

Recommended route is far from 
the starting point, passing points, 
and destination.

Starting point, passing points, and destination of 
the route guide were set far from the desired 
points because route searching data around 
these area were not stored.

Reset the destination onto the road nearby. If 
this road is one of the highways (gray 
routes), an ordinary road nearby may be dis-
played as the recommended route.

EXAMPLES OF CURRENT-LOCATION MARK DISPLACEMENT 

Vehicle's travel amount is calculated by reading its travel distance and turning angle. Therefore, if the vehicle

is driven in the following manner, an error will occur in the vehicle's current location display. If correct location
has not been restored after driving the vehicle for a while, perform location correction.
